IES is OVER!!

I can’t believe that IES is over!! Can you believe that?! I thought at the beginning of IESb, it seemed like never end because everyday I had a lots of work and they were like nightmare for me. But…. Just over…I’m really sad. Won’t we be never in the same class together? Won’t we study social science or literature together? Really? How fast time flows….
I wanna say thank you here to everyone. Because of you guys, I could get over many hardships. I can’t imagine if you were not my classmates and if you were not here. I really appreciate you so much!!!! We are together forever!!

Assignment of Darren’s class

Why people prefer books written by men to books written by women is, I think, that in the past women had less opportunity to get education than men and women were not allowed to publish their writing or they were even not allowed to write something. Because of that, women tended to be no smarter than men, so this old relic may stay still now and it makes people prefer men’s books. Genre is also big point. There are lots of categories of book like fiction, nonfiction, science fiction, history, action, love, etc. Men often write science fiction, action and history or mystery while women tend to write about love or other kinds of story. In terms of category, men write more than women. Basically I think old relic is a big key.

Coming of Age Day

On January 9th, I went to Coming of Age ceremony and met a lot of old friends. It was really enjoyable. Most of girls wore Hurisode and beautiful white fur, so they looked so beautiful, perhaps more beautiful than usual . Most of boys wore black suits, not Hakama, so it’s kind of boring. But what made me surprised was that boy has dramatically changed, I mean they were really childish when they were junior high school students, but now they looked like kind of adult!? Especially the boys who were shorter than me become taller. On the other hand, girls has not so changed.
I can believe that I’m already adult, 20 years old!! May I be adult?! There is complicated feeling in my mind, which is I’m happy to be an adult but I don’t wanna be adult yet…..umm difficult. Anyway that’s the way every one should pass! Now that I became an adult, I will act like adult!

The First Stay☆

On January 5th to 6th my friends (Saki, Towa, Miki, Midori) came to stay my house. This was the first stay for us. We ate soymilk nabe, which was also the first time for me, but it tasted pretty good!! After eating, we still continued eating chocolates, snacks and bread though we were extremely full….. maybe we must have got fat a little …
We sat up late at that night because we confessed one individual secret with each other (not so surprising, just tiny things) which excited us so much!! I hope we can spend such fun time someday again.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

Happy New Year, everyone!! New Year has come! How are you doing? On that day, I visited my grandmother’s house and saw my relatives. After eating and drinking, we went playing boring. It was pretty enjoyable!! Next day, I went to Tennoji and Umeda for bargain and bought a lot of things. I am really satisfied with them, but I am kind of regretting of it…because I spent all the money I got including OTOSHIDAMA….but I am satisfied☆ Anyway this is the last chance for me that I can go bargain, so it should not be bad. I miss I can't go bargain next year(-_-;)

New Year's Eve

I had a part-time job today even though it is New Year’s Eve, so I am a little bit tired. Anyway I was really looking forward to this day because I can eat delicious OSECH foods. I can’t come to this day without OSECH!! It was pretty nice.
This year was a great year, I think, because it was decided that I could go studying abroad and had great teachers. Also my English ability somewhat improved maybe… I think. I would be in NY next year and spend New Year’s Day there, which means I can not eat OSECH, soooooooo sad!! Not only this thing, but also I am lonely next year….Anyway, I hope next year will be great as well as this year!

Winter Vacation

Hey, finally winter vacation has come!! We have had really hard time this weed writing 2 papers at the same time, haven't we? But we were finally released. I have a lot of plan during this vacation like party, part-time job, training camp of synchronized swimming and a coming-of-age ceremony. Im gonna wear my mother's kimono which is kinda old. But it is so crassic that it might be good because it's a little bit different from othres, normal kimono. I m really looking forward to wearing it☆　BUT, before planing fun things, I have to do homework....

I made it ☆

Hey listen! I passed the exam of dual degree program! I can’t believe that! but I’m really happy with it now. It was a long way to come here…but finally …I passed! This is all thanks for you, Bs and teachers!
However the hard time is waiting for me, which is departure course. I know how hard it is because I have seen my friends working hard and sometimes getting in trouble. It was so terrible! So I have to get over it to go studying abroad.
There are still a few people who have interview for 2 1 1 program. Now that they came to this final stage, whatever the cost, I want them to pass. GOOD LUCK on your interview and prepare well for it!
