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!!!!^^
