Diary 6/8/2018 Hi there, I have came back to italki after pretty long time and want to restart learning English again! I am going to write whatever I thought here. My goal is to be able to use very natural English so don't hesitate to correct anything you notice please. Especially I am not good at using prepositions.. Thanks! Since it was me and my boyfriend's our first day off after the roster of ours so I have got enough sleep and woke up at around 9 am this morning, then did one week's worth of the laundry. It was very nice weather outside, I felt the climate is getting warmer. Here in Australia is in winter now. But still the sky today was very clear blue colour and beautiful. It reminded me of the reason why I like the place where I live even though I was getting bored of this my current life such as repetition of the same thing. Sometimes I am asked why I don't work in my home country Japan. People says Japan is rich and such a nice country. And I agree with some part of it.. Japan is safe and developed, very convenient as the public transportation is perfectly work and the food there is very good. I miss them. On the other hand, the work there is required very high quality, people cares about the details, I felt people are observational. For example the cloths that you put on.. if you chose wrong one for the season or weather on that day, people will look at you. But here, apparently no one cares about someone else's cloths. I like it. I don't need to worry about so much about what I wear. And another big benefit working here for me is being able to get longer holidays to travel. Yes I like traveling. But when I worked in Japan, it was really hard to get long holiday. I still remember that was my first time planning to go to overseas with my friend. I requested to my boss to have 4 days off which included my original days off Thursday and Sunday, so technically requested for only 2 days off, yet he refused at the beginning and we argued.lol That was unbelievable but the good thing is they have changed the system to make it easier to get holidays for the staff after that happened. Anyways here at my current work, we are able to get holidays at least twice a year of around 2 weeks holidays and I am happy with that. My boyfriend and I are planning to go to Japan and some another country in south east Asia this coming holidays on December. Either Thailand, Vietnam or Indonesia... Any suggestion with correction would be appreciated! :D
