Pleased correct my English sentences. My New Year’s Resolutions about English 〇Keep a diary in English every day (3 lines or more) 〇Read English news at least one (NHK world or BBC or CNN in the app) every day. 〇Read one English book completely (one book in three months) “ bridget jones’s diary “ 267page about 90 page in a month 〇Review the chat with my English teacher on the lesson and look back on what I should have said. Maybe, it is important to consider specific short-term goals and long-term goals. But now I haven't set a specific time and goals. This year, I have decided to study English in this direction. I've spent a lot of time studying English so far, but I've forgotten what I've learned over time. I feel like I couldn't make them my own. It's difficult to remember everything I've learned, but I will pick up expressions that might be particularly useful, and that I might use, and sentences that I’m interested in, and I will remember them over and over again. I would like to make it a habit to put them in my memory. I want to spend at least 30 minutes a day doing that. Then I will try to make my own sentences using those words and sentences. I will use them as much as possible. I think it's a good idea to chat with someone online. And from this year, I will try to look up words in the English-English dictionary as much as possible. When I make a sentence, I usually think in Japanese and then translate them into English, so I would like to try to think in English in directly and write them.

At the end of 2020, there happened a bad thing for me. I was looking forward to getting the Icebreaker’s items I ordered. And that was delivered to me on the last day of 2020. After taking a bath, I tried to wear it and noticed that it was too small in size. I checked my order and found that it was my misstate. I was shocked. That was non-returnable. Therefore I lined to my daughter and told her how I shocked and said to her I would present it to her. So I called my daughter and told her how shocked I was and told her I would give it to her if she wants. Actually, I didn’t pay for that. My husband bought it as a present for my birthday next month. It was a pity that his present was wasted. (It was a pity that his present was wasted.) But good things occurred one hour later. The time was just going through to the next year. My daughter sent me a message on Line application to let me know that she bought me the Icebreaker camisole which I wanted for my Birthday present. She found the store with a bargain sale and was able to get it cheaply, so she bought one more another kind of underwear of my size. I was delighted with the unexpected gift from my daughter. I think this year would be a good year for me as there happened a good event since the beginning of this year.

People wearing white clothes on the mountain In Japan, mountains have been considered holy places since ancient times, and there was a deep-rooted religious view that gods lived there. Mt. Ishizuchi is one of them, and the whole mountain is sanctified and is known as a mountain of worship. Mt. Ishizuchi has long been known as a place for religious people to do a strict practice, and it seems that the custom remains today. A shrine is built on the top of Mt. Ishizuchi, so the people who came in white clothes were the ones who worshiped there. White has the meaning of purity. They may even use band-aids because they can hurt their hands as they climb up the long chains to the summit. The woman, who seemed to have no hands, probably she had her hands in her sleeves because of the cold.

Climbed Hiyama with my sister and my husband today. I was worried that my physical strength has declined than I claimed there 5 years ago. But I was glad that I managed to climbed there without any difficulty.

View of our experiences in Vancouver 1 There were various happenings, and during the first week, I had been stressed as to lose my appetite extremely. Still, this two-week stay in Vancouver was very meaningful to me. Staying abroad for two weeks is a big adventure for old people like us. At first, I thought that two weeks would be too short, but considering physical strength, energy, and economics, I think that two weeks was just right for us. (If I were much younger, it would have been nice to stay there at least half a year, or maybe a year)
