Traveling abroad

These days many Japanese people go abroad to travel. I think Korea is a popular place for Japanese to visit. Because, Korea is very close to Japan, and Japan and Korea have a good relationship. So it is easy to go there very soon by airplane and ship. Korea became famous for Japanese as good Korean movies and TV dramas. For example, "huyunosonata" is the most popular Korean movies in Japan. According to media in Japan, middle age of women in Japan like to watch this movie. I also watched this movie. This movie of content is purely love story.

In Korea, there are many spots to see that different from Japan, like nature, architecture, and foreign culture. I think such a good things makes Japanese people go to Korea.

If I have a chance to go Korea, I am going to go there and want to take pictures and eat kimchi because I have heard Korea's kimchi is better taste than Japan's kimchi. Kimchi is so healthy food. So, to eat kimchi makes good body. I have not been to abroad for 21 years. In other words, I have never been to abroad. I am sure to go abroad is a good opportunity for me to speak English.( words 211 total7494)

English

In Japan, almost people have learned English since junior high school. I also have learned English since junior high school. I remember It is very difficult for me to learn English. For instance, they are to write words which is clearly different from Japanese, to understand what word's means, to speak words which do not contain in Japanese.

In this point about English pronunciation, I also felt difficult. When I was not accustom of English pronunciation, I pronounce it like I speak in Japanese. And, I could not pronounce in correct pronunciation. For example, Regularly, meat is pronounced "miito", but I pronounced meat "meeto". In other words, I could not distinguish English words which was pronounced in Romaji reading or not. English pronunciation contain Romaji reading and English reading. So it was so difficult for me to pronounce correct pronunciation.

Now, I almost can understand English words how to be read. But I may not be able to use correct English pronunciation which I do not see it before. So I must have studied English so I have understood all English pronunciations. I am going to do my best because to study English is so interesting and makes me easy to communicate with foreign people.(206words total7283)

Talking foreigners


I have a Japanese education class. This class is to be a Japanese teacher in foreign couturiers. In other words, the people want to be a teacher who teach Japanese is going to take this class. But I do not want to be a Japanese teacher. The reason why I took this class is simple. I think this class will give me good knowledge to know about foreigners. I want to live in foreign countries in the future. So to know about foreigners and understand what they think and why they want to learn Japanese are useful for me I am sure.

Last Wednesday, I had an opportunity to talk with foreigners who were from China, Korea, America, Canada, Mexico, etc. They are students in Kumamoto University. They went to KGU by bus. Although they are foreigners, they can speak Japanese fluently. They have only studied Japanese for about three years to five years. However, they can speak Japanese well. I have studied English for eight years. But I could speak English fluently they speak English so.

I do not know why they can speak Japanese well. Maybe I think they did their best. They would study Japanese very hard every day. I also study English very hard to speak English well like they speak. It was very good experiments to communication them because I could know only a little and I also study more. If I have a chance to talk with them, I am going to talk with them more.(252 words total7077)

Eiken associate the first grade.


I have studied English about Eiken associate the first grade. The test was hold on January. The receptionist period of a test begins on December. As I take this test, I am going to take receptionist by on December. This test is so difficult for me. Although I had took this test twice, I did not pass it. The reason why I did not pass the exam was so clear.

First, I was not good at hearing ability. I could not hear once what English speaker said. I needed at least twice to understand what English speaker said. In the case of Eiken associate the first grade, the speaking will be given only once. So I could not understand what English speaker said and I could not get good score. I had to practice and practice the hearing more so that I could understand what English speaker said.

Second, I did not have vocabulary of English much. There are questions of blanks supplement in Eiken associate the first grade. To solve this question, we need to have a lot of vocabularies because the questions of Eiken associate the first grade are so difficult which contain some technical terms and I can not understand what this sentences of English mean. In fact, I could not understand what this sentences of English meant I had to study about words of English so that I had a lot of vocabularies of English. I did not do my best to learn English words.

The next test will be hold In January. I am going to take this test. But I have much time to study about Eiken associate the first grade because it is in December. It means about only one month to start the test. But I have a lot of to study about English. Specially, hearing is the best concerning as me because I am not good at hearing and I want to get over this weak point awareness. I am sure I will pass the next test. I will do my best.(341 words total6826)

Qatar vs. Japan


The soccer match which is Qatar vs. Japan was hold in Qatar on November 19. Although there was not in Japan, many Japan's supporter were in Qatar to support Japan's team. As Japan did not win to Qatar before, so people in Japan thought this game would be so difficult to win. As expected, this game became difficult match. In other words, the Japan's team did not get a goal. I suggested this game of the first half time would not contain a goal each other. However, this game was different I thought so. Japan's player whose name is TATSUYA TANAKA got a goal. I was so happy and excited. This game of the first half time was finished and Japan wan Qatar 1 to 0. Although Japan had an advantage, this game did not be felt secure because this game of content was fifty-fifty chance each other.

This game of latter half was started. I want Japan to get more goals so that it won clearly to Qatar. I wanted Tamada to get a goal. I like Tamada the best in Japan's players. My dream came true soon. Tamada got a goal. It was very fantastic and wonderful and beautiful. It made me so happy. Tamada got a goal with his proud left foot. Although The goalkeeper of Qatar reflected to the Tamada's shot, he could not stop it because the goal was so powerful shot.

Finally, this game score was 3 to 0. Japan won to Qatar. It was good game for Japan and Japan got world cup point 3. The next game is going to play with Australia. Japan lost to Australia world cup in Germany. So I am sure this game is going to be difficult game and Japan must do their best. Also, FIFA ranking of Australia higher than Japan. I also do not know whether Japan win to Australia or not. If Japan is not able to win to Australia, Japan will not leave good results in world cup.(342 words total6485)

I met one of my friend yesterday. He was from Siga prefecture. I have not seen him for three months. So we wanted to talk each other how you have been and what you have done.

First, I picked him up his home by my car and I went to the karaoke near my house. It was very exciting and funny. We were there about three hours. I felt it was so fast to past time.

Second, I went to go a night view to relax and take some photos. It was so cold today of night. But the beautiful view made us so relax and we took some good photos. There were some couples in the places. But, I am sure Seeing a good night view becomes good memories if I go there with my friend or my girl friend or my brother.

Ending we felt sleeply and go back to the home. I am going to meet him when he returns to Kumamoto. And if I have a time to go to Siga, I want to go there by train. I am sure it costs much to go Siga which is approximately 30000 yen I think. I never go to Siga to my own. So I would enjoy traveling very much.(words 213 total5538)
