Going Back to My Hometown

Hi Masa,

Just some suggestions for your writing: 

(1), (2), (3) and (4) are stylistic changes to make your writing more natural. (4) is a grammatical error. 

(1) If you use "an earlier train", the reader will understand that you are referring to a train which has departed earlier. Similarly, you can use an expression such as "a later flight" to refer to a flight which will depart later than your original flight. 

(2) I presume you meant that you woke up and was surprised to find that you have not woken up at a pre-arranged time. We can use "overslept" to express this meaning. 

(3) You not only woke up late, but you also "missed the train". 

(4) There are some pairs of adjectives which describe emotions. An example of such a pair is "bored" and "boring".

We use "boring" to refer to something that is not mentally stimulating and leaves us feeling dull. (e.g. It was really a boring lecture.)

We use "bored" to refer to our mental state of being under-stimulated. (e.g. It was really a boring lecture and we were all bored to tears.)

Something that is "boring" (event) makes us feel "bored" (feeling). Similarly, something "exciting" makes us "excited"; something "interesting" makes us "interested". 

*When you say that you are "boring", you mean that you have a personality that does not stimulate interest in others. 

I hope this helps.
