QUESTION 5

It was very good for me to post on my blog because blogging makes progress with my English and typing skill. Blogging also helps me to tell my friends some daily events, news, or my thoughts. I enjoyed seeing some comments which my friends wrote and posting some comments on my friends' blogs. When my friend who is an American and lives in America saw and commented on my blog, I was surprised and very happy.
In this semester, I tried to post with pictures as many as I can. I can tell the things easily by posting with pictures. I think that people who see my blog can enjoy seeing with them.
I want to develop my English and typing skill, so I'll continue blogging in future.

red bag

I went to school by train today. After taking a test, on my way to home, I bought a new bag. I bought a red one because it'll make for a nice accent.

Saint Valentine's Day

Saint Valentine's Day is coming soon!
In Japan, on Saint Valentine's Day, many women give some chocolates to someone who is a boyfriend, a senior, or any other man. These days, some women who have no boyfriend can enjoy Saint Valentine's Day. They make or buy a chocolate and give it to their friends. It is called tomo-choco. But it makes me more lonely, I think....
I have no boyfriend now, so I'm gonna give a chocolate to my father♪

okaeri~

I had a part time job yesterday. One of my senior who is a full-time worker came back to Hikarinomori. He had been sent to sanroad for a month. It's been a long time. I was happy to talk with him.

Friday

I went out with my friend yesterday. First, we went to STARBUCKS COFFEE. We drink a cup of coffee and ate a cake. It was so good♪　I love coffee and sweets! Second, we went to TSUTAYA. We looked around for about half hour. I rent some CDs. Finaly, we drove to Joyful to have a dinner. I ate omlet. I was very sleepy, so I went back home early.

Trip to Kansai

I want to go to Kyoto during spring vacation.

Kyoto is one of the most famous and big city in Japan but I have never been to Kyoto, so I want to visit there.

I want to trip alone. I'll feel lonely but it'll also make me grow.

I want to visit Kobe and osaka, too. My cousin lives Osaka and my friend lives Kobe. I'm going to ask them about sights or good stores and restaurants.

Talking

I went to school by train yesterday. From Suizenji sation to School, I talked with my local friend on the phone. We talked about other local friend who is a strange boy...
But I enjoyed talking with her.

Ouchi Cafe

I went to Ouchi Cafe with Yukari and Shoichiro on last Friday.
I and Yukari went to see the result of internship. I'll experience the real job in Nissenren tours and Yukari will in TOYOTA which is a car company.
Then, we walked together and met Shoichiro. Yukari said "I want to go to Ouchi cafe!" So, we went there. Ouchi cafe is in front of KGU. She ate carry and rice and I ate a durian. It was good.
After eating, we studied a little. I had a good time with them.

Alicia Keys

I borrowed a CD from my friend. It is Unplugged of Alicia Keys. I like her because her songs are very powerful, polished, and sexy. If I Ain't Got You, Karma, Heartburn, A Woman's Worth... All of her songs are good! Please listen to them if you are interested in her.
