The Last Day of October 2
At the end of last month, October, I was trying hard to think of what to do. I felt I had something to do immediately, but I couldn't find out what it was. I know now. It got cold shortly after, and then I caught a cold. What I had to do last month was to take warm sweaters or other clothes out of my wardrobe and wash them. Fortunately, I never had a high temperature. There was no need to stay in bed. But the problem is that I couldn't help coughing loudly whenever I tried to say something. This lasted for weeks. I wrapped up in warm layers and I ate lots of apples and satsuma oranges. I finally got better.
Here is an article about satsuma oranges: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Citrus_unshiu
I'm not sure what I should call them in English. They are really tasty. Japanese people eat lots and lots of them during the winter.
Thanks for reading this notebook entry. Take care, everyone!0 votedNovember 21, 20151Something about dreams.
What kind of dreams do you have? Do you remember your dreams? Are they colourful or black and white?
I know that many people can fly in their dreams. I had such a dream just once in my life.That dream was exciting. I was so happy and free... I felt like a bird who can look at the ground from high up. And the Earth seemed beautiful to me at that moment.0 votedNovember 21, 20151English
In your country, how are the exams? In China, English exams contain listening, reading, writing and traslating. Of those four parts, the one I most dislike is reading, because I always make mistakes in 3 out of 5 questions per text.So, nowadays, I really hate the reading part.On the contrary, listening is my favorite one. Not because I do well in it, but because I have gotten some progress on this part.To be honest, I think I don't understand the thoughts and logic of English people, so I do badly in reading.
By the way, in this occasion, I would like to ask the English people for help with reading.

Hello my friends. I am a new member here. It is nice to meet you!
Let me introduce myself first.
My name is Thao Nguyen, but I hope you will call me Mei. I love the name 'Mei' because of the character from a Japanese film. It is called " Say I love you" :) Maybe I talked too much about my boring name :) , but I think it's a good name :) I am from Vietnam - a peaceful country. I hope you will travel to my country sometime, I will take you around my city where I live :)
I am studying in a university but I think it isn't enough for me to become better in speaking English. I can't speak English with anyone except my English teacher :( And it makes me feel bored. My family has our own store for buying foods for breakfast and dinner, so after finishing my class time I am too busy to go out to catch someone to practice my English skill with. So, I haved joined italki to find some friends to talk with :) I am sure it will be fun to make friends :)
By the way, I am 21 years old and I am single :) (haha just kidding!)
.....Well maybe my introduction is too long :) I just wanna say " HELLO " and "Welcome to my world ,guys "
Whoever are you , I love you :)0 votedNovember 21, 20150- japanese language has 4 alphabets. Hiragana is the first, used for words that are from Japanese origin, such as おはようございます。(Ohayou gozai masu, aka formal 'good morning'.) Katakana is for western terms that are not originally japanese but have been translated/migrated into the japanese language, such as アトム ('Atomu', japanese localized form of Atom) or アメリカ ('Amerika', japanese localized form of America.) I don't know much about kanji, but I know it is often mixed with katakana and hiragana. I think kanji are more complex characters that stand for a whole word, while hiragana and katakana alphabet stand for sounds or segments that make up words when put together. The fourth alphabet is romaji, which is spelling japanese words with english characters, basically. such as above, where Ohayou gozai masu is the romaji form of おはようございます。0 votedNovember 21, 20152
