Essay01: my host family

Hello, my name is Shiori. I was born in Kumamoto in 1988.
Thank you for taking me as your hosted student this time.

I love sweets, especially chocolates. And also love cooking so I hope to cook something with you when I go there. My family has five members, my father, mother, grandmother, older brother and me.

I’m thinking to buy a dog, because I love dogs so I’m very glad if your family has a pet.
I’m a student at KGU and majoring in America and British studies. I like studying English so I want to talk with you while I stay there. In my university, I belong to the walking club and I am writing a bulletin board for club members to give them some information.

Do you like to go shopping? I really like it, so if you like it, let’s go shopping together. I like fashion, so please tell me about it in your country.
I have been to New Zealand; it was a very nice place with a lot of nice people.

By the way, what do you do in your free time? I often go to karaoke with my friends. Do you like it? How long have you sang at a karaoke box? In my case, I have sung for 6 hours. I sing many Japanese songs, but sometimes I sing American songs. Do you know any Japanese singers? I like American R&B music, so please tell me if you know any good artists.

I’m looking forward to seeing you. Thank you for reading this letter.

I learned many things in Writing class for this semester. I had to many things in this class and at home about this class. I wrote about what happened today, essays movie reviews and so on. It was difficult to keep writing them everyday.

First, I learned how to use computer in this class. I didn’t know how to use computer and I couldn’t use it, but in Writing class, I had many opportunity to use it. I had not known to put in a You-Tube movie on my blog. When I could do so, my blog page became better.

Second, I learned how to write good essays using like a map. I didn’t like to write essays before, because I didn’t come up with what to write. Brainstorming makes me more easily to write essays or reviews. It is very big change to me.

I learned many things in Writing class, but I need typing speed. I will have to use computer after graduate, so I want to improve typing speed before graduate. I will practice using typing game or keep writing my blog. It is useful not only English writing but also Japanese writing with computer.

Next, also, I still need to expand my vocabulary. I always have an electronic dictionary, because I don’t know many English words. I will memorize many English words before graduate. I will keep bring a wordbook and read it.

In Writing class, I could learn many things describe this comment. I want to make use of it. I want to keep writing my blog.

Greenland

I went to Green Land in Arao in January 4th with my club member. I drive my car and took my friends. First, we ride a trapeze. I like this attraction! Next, we watch like a movie with glasses. This movie was very scary, so I shouted in a room. We enjoyed many attractions, but I like Go-carts the best. I was poor to drive a Go-cart, but I improved my driving, because I took a driving license.
I had very enjoyable time!

Party with MARKEYS★



Today was a party with my high school friends, Rina, Ai, Sayuri! They are awesome friends for me! We drank in a bar which was a long time before, so I had very enjoyable time. We talked many things about high school. When we were in high school, we belonged to English Class, so we are all like English! Rina is in KGU now, so I can talk to her whenever I want. Ai is worker in an office, she is busy girl, and Sayuri goes to Fukuoka University. I couldn’t see her a long time, so I was happy to talk to her. My friends are so pretty! I love them! They are so fun!

Kyoko♪

Kyoko! She is my best friend. She came back home in Japan. She goes to American University. When she came back here, I usually say to her “talk in English!” so she talks in English about her. She is very good at English. She is happy to live in America. She lives in Montana where is very cold. So she can live without jacket in Japan :)

Today, we went to downtown, and went shopping. I was looking forward to see her, so when I see her after a long time, I was so happy. She has not changed before. She is a person with a frank disposition. I really like her. When I worry about English, she is taught me.

She lives in America, but we are best friend forever!!
