first experience! I've been having a lot of new experiences since I came here America. This is my third year but i still have so many things that i have not done yet. Last weekend, my friend took us to the gun shooting! it is prohibited in japan to even have a gun so just to hold the gun made me scared and nervous a little bit. he told us safety stuff for like about 30 min and then we hold the gun. but it was pretty heavy and when i shot, i got some pressure. The second experience which i did these days was to drive in the snow. like very heavy snow! since my friend asked me, we tried to go to walmart but on the way there, there were a slope and we got stuck in middle of the slope!!! tried to go forward but didn't move and moved backward!!! we finally made it but now, on the way back, there were so long line and they didn't even move. we changed the way many times and we got back but usually it takes only 30 min to finish shopping and coming back. however, it took 3 hours to come back today. learned very important thing! JUST TAKE AN ADVICE! cause everyone from here, they knew how bad to drive in the snow and told me not to do. but I did :((( It was such a fun experience but im not gonna do it again!!!

Hello Aya, how are you now? I see that you are now here in America and I want extend my greeting to you by saying 'welcome back.' Long time ago, I was enrolled in a gun safety course with my father along with a friend and his dad and I was a bit nervous too at first because I never held a gun before. Also, I was 12 or 13 years old at the time and we were on a shooting range too and it took me many times to properly load the gun with bullets, aim and then shoot but I managed to 'hit the mark' or target eventually. About part of driving in the snow, I'm glad you and your friend weren't hurt and got into accident because people HAVE to drive carefully when it snows especially when the roads are slick with ice. I think it's wise altogether to stay off roads when it snows really bad and I experienced getting stuck in slope when I drove, but it took a little longer for me to get unstuck and back on the road. By the way, which part of the U.S. are you visiting?

First Experiences!

I've been having a lot of new experiences since I came here to America. This is my third year, but I still have so many things that I have not done yet. Last weekend, my friend took us to the gun shooting! It is prohibited in Japan to even have a gun, so just to hold the gun made me scared and nervous a little bit. He told us safety stuff for like about 30 min and then we practiced holding the gun. It was pretty heavy and when I shot gun, I got some pressure. The second experience which I did these days was to drive in the very heavy snow. Since my friend asked me, we tried to go to Wal-Mart but on the way there, there was a slope and we got stuck in middle of the slope!!! We tried to go forward, but car didn't move in that direction and instead, car ended up moving backwards!!! We finally made it but now, on the way back, there was a long line and no cars didn't even move. We changed the way many times on the road and usually, it takes only 30 mins to finish shopping and to come back. However, it took 3 hours to come back today. I learned a very important thing... JUST TAKE AN ADVICE! Everyone from here knew how bad it is to drive in the snow and told me not to do it. However,I didn't listen and drove in the snow anyway. :((( It was such a fun experience but I'm not gonna do it again!!!
