It has been a long time.... It has been a long time since I last wrote a diary here! I recently got a new job which requires English for most of the situations. It is my new start, so I am very excited! I also have been studying Korean, Italian and Spanish. Why is learning languages so hard but very interesting? Anyone who is interested in learning Japanese, please let me know! I would love to help you with your Japanese, and I want to do a language exchange session!

Good News! I got a job in Boston!! I will be working at the traveling company and helping visitors from Japan. I am so excited because I personally love traveling. Is there anyone who works for a traveling company?^^ If you could give me some advice for working in a traveling agency, that would be great! My parents wanted me to come back to Japan, so I know that I made them feel a little sad... I am still not sure if this is the best choice when I think about my entire family in Japan. But I want to do this job and challenge myself. I hope that one day I will feel that my parents are really proud of me and I made a good choice.

Fight Club Today, I watched a movie called "Fight Club" because many of my friends recommended it. To be honest, it was so confusing!!! But many people say that it is hard to understand for the first time, but if you watch again and again, it will make sense to you. After I heard the opinions of others, I understand somewhat better, but I think that I should watch it again to enjoy more of it!! Has anyone watched this movie? If so, what do you think?

Things that I like to do I like traveling, watching movies, learning about different languages and cultures, and exploring new restaurants! Today, I watched the movie called "Rome, Open City." It was a great movie. I want to be able think more critically. Sometimes, it is hard for me to put my thoughts in words and convey it to other people. Does anyone know how to improve it? Especially American educational system has a lot of opportunities for discussions. I want to speak up more! I sometimes get too nervous to talk in class..><

I have only 4 months left until I graduate! Hello! It's been almost 2 years since I wrote the last post. I have been still in Boston and I am going to graduate from University in May this year. I'm very excited! I have experienced many things in America so far. I have made a lot of friends, too. They are all part of me and they will be creating my future. I sometimes wish that I could be more active rather than being afraid of new things and nervous. I am trying to push myself more and be more initiative. I have been looking a job in Boston right now. I hope that I can find one!!

HAPPY Today, I worked at the sushi restaurant which my best friend's father owned. It was the very first day to work there. I was a little nervous. However, people working there are very nice! (My best friends's mother, grandmother, aunt, uncle, and cousin. ((Unfortunately, her father was not there today because he has been working at Tokyo branch.))) Therefore, I love working there!^^ Also, I used English there today! Malaysian people came to our restaurant as customers. When they paid the bill, they were confused about the amount of money the bill said. (Actually, it was a mistake by the worker at the restaurant.) So, I talked to them in English and helped them resolve it as a translator!^^ I was so glad that I have been studying English and I could be helpful! I felt the true meaning of my efforts in America. Also, it was very nice that the customers were relieved then and could keep enjoying the trip in my hometown. I hope they are having a good time now! The restaurant that I'm working is very hospitable and that you can really taste "Japanese sushi". I think that the quality of sushi is the best in the whole world!!!!^^

My summer vacation in 2012 I am in Hakodate, Hokkaido, Japan now!^^ I came back to my hometown on vacation. I have been here since the end of may...Time flies! It's already August! I have done many things in this vacation. I watched many movies such as "Life is beautiful", "The Twilight Saga: breaking dawn", "Seven" and so on! I love watching movies!^^ I hope to see as many as movies I can during vacation. If you know a good one, could you tell me it?^^

diario Ho le classe di Italiano, letteratura e scienze ambientali questo semestre. La classe di italiano e un po' difficile. Quindi devo studiare piu italino. Potrebbe consigliarmi alcuni buoni film italiani?

winter vacation 2011~2012 My vacation is so far so good!^^ I came back to Japan for the vacation, and I have been spending so much time with my family and friends! The first thing that I felt "Japan" after I arrived in my country was restroom at Narita airport. When I saw a Japanese style toilet and a device that sounds like a flush near the toilet, (I don't know how to explain it well in English ^^;) I really felt "Japan" and I was so happy!! I suffered from jet lag a few days.. but now, I'm completely getting along with the transition to the Japan time!^^ I had sushi, natto, and my grandmother's miso soup that are my favorite Japanese food and I had been enduring not having. I could have some time to be by myself to read the books that I was hoping to read but not able to do because of my busy life during the semester. Also, I have been watching the Japanese comedy-talk show called "Shabekuri 007". It is my favorite TV program and I always watch every single episode that I missed while I am in the US when I come back to Japan. Now, I feel like I am the happiest woman in the world~!^^ My vacation is going to be done on 22 and go back to the US again. I've recharged my batteries in Japan, so I am going to do my best with my school work next semester, too! It is going to be the last semester in my community college and I am planning to transfer to 4-years college after that. This year will be one of big turning points in my life, so I'm going to brace myself. I look forward to seeing my friends back in America.^^
