    please check my e-mail I'm writing an e-mail for asking an interview appointment. I got introduced Mr Fra** from my professor, but I have never met Mr Fra**. So this is first time to send an e-mail. Could anyone correct my email(words/ phrases/ expression,,etc)? *** Dear Mr, Fra** Bev*****, I am (my name) of the University of Tokyo. I am sending this email for the first time. I happened to know you from Professor (my professor's name). I am studying International Environmental Law and researching about water resource management in international rivers. As a part of research activity, I have a strong interest in a role of International Joint Commission, especially its function of dispute settlements. Therefore, I would like to come to your office in September. It would be great if I could have an opportunity to meet and ask some questions from September 2nd to 4th. I look forward to hearing from you. Best regards, *** thanks.

    [Question] "be going to do" "be supposed to do"? Frequently I hear people using "be suppose to do smt". I understand what they are meaning and sometimes I also use. But I'm not sure about the difference between "be going to do" and "be suppose to do" . For instance, when I say "I am going to call him" and "I am suppose to call him", is that same meaning? Or, is the nuance differ from each other?

    got a job offer :) I was doing job hunting for a couple of month, and yesterday finally I've got a job offer from consulting company! I am going to start working at the company from next April, after finishing graduate school. I'm looking forward to being a part of the company but feel little bit nervous. Anyway, I'm really glad to be able to get a job offer.

    日本で思ったら→日本で思ったこと

    日本で思ったら天気で思う(what does this sentence mean by?)。六月間六ヶ月前の留インターンシップのために日本に着いた来た時、日差しがジリジリした。着きの一週間以内着いて一週間でに肌が日焼けで覆われてしました。

    どこにも行ったらどこにいっても空気には海の味がありしました。日本に比べてアメリカの天気がはカサカサの感じですしています。時々駅を出る時雨が降っていなくても、アパートに着く前にはザーザー降りでした。

    アメリカに帰った日、日本がはちょっと寒かったです。小雪が降りだしました。シカゴの空港がは０度以内以下でした。

    日本の天気が日本の住みに比べて同じようでした(what are you comparing to Japan's weather?)。私にとって全てが別様だけど新しかったので、全然忘れないことですられないことです。

    onomatope(ジリジリ・カサカサ・ザーザー)　great :-)!!

    I got a chance to visit Hungary I got an opportunity to go to Hungary for a short study tour. It is only for 10 days though, I'm really looking forward to visiting there. Surprisingly the flight ticket and hotel expenses are paid by the host institute! So I can go to Hungary for free :) I am supposed to visit a regional environmental institute in Budapest and take some lectures on climate change and regional environmental policy. :-)

    おきる

    今朝六時三十分に起きて、朝ごはんを作った。
    実は、早いく起きることが好きなのだけどそれは難しいね。

    早い→ex;速度が早い, 時間が早い

    早く→ex;早く走る, 早く帰る 

    small mistake! 日本語上手ですね！

    First note! Hi everyone! I'm Ryo, from Japan. I just started using this website for learning English and making friends who are studying foreign languages! I know that my english expression may be incorrect and vocabulary is poor, and also sometime make a mistake in grammar. So if you find my mistakes or better expression, please tell me! First of all, I'd like to introduce myself, especially about what I have interested in. I'm a graduate student majoring in environmental studies. Now I'm working with my master thesis. The topic of my thesis is a regional governance of transboundary water resources in international rivers. So in short, I am researching rivers. It may sound funny or ridiculous to research rivers in a graduate school, but I believe that proper management of rivers and water resources are quite important for most of us. Some of you may know that the origin of the word "rival" comes from "river". People were fighting over water resources in a history. Some says that people will start wars for seeking water, not for oil nor food, because people cannot live without water. Of course this might be an exaggerated example, but small political/economic conflicts are actually happening in the world. So that's why I had an interest in rivers and its management. :)
