My future plan

 Recently, I often think about my future because I'm going to start the job hunting this December.
 One of my future plans is to work at a hotel. I'd like to treat the guests with special hospitality. I've had this drem since I was a junior high school student. The experience at Tokyo Disney Resort made me to have this dream. The people at the hotel near Disney Resort were so nice and treated me and my family very kindly with smiles. I felt so comfortable and love to stay at the hotel.
 In the 10 years, I hope I can get a job as a hotel worker. I may be working at Tokyo Disney Land hotel. I really hope so!!

Neighborhood

I have 2 types of relationship with my neighborhoods ever.
One is traditional and the other is so modern.

Until the 3rd grade of elementary school, I've  lived in an apartment house.
In the apartment, I had much friends as same age as me, and I played with them outside riding bicycles or running together almost everyday, so I had very good relationship with neighborhoods living in the same apartment.
My family also had good relarionship with neighbors. My mother used to visit neighbor's house and had some tea together and enjoy talking.
Although my father was busy worker during the day, and he doesn't know so much neighbors, he said hello to everyone:)

When I was 4th grade, I moved. Unfortunately, there was no one who were around same age as me in neighborhood, and I got to not play outside.
Then, the relationship with neighborhoods became weaker.
Of course I say hello to my neighbors when we meet, there are not so strong relarionship with them.
It is modern Japanese realtionship with neighborhoods.

Compareing Esperanza and myself

 Esperanza's background and personality is so different from my own.
 First, she has moved often, while I have moved only once in my life, besides, I haven't changed my school. I 've moved to near area.
 Second, she is realistic and understands truth even white lies from parents. I wasn't realistic when I was a child. I was thinking everything my parents told me is right.
 Third, she feels people don't understand her. When I was a girl like her age, I didn't even imagine whether people understand me or not. She is wise and precocious.

 Most of her background and personality is different from mine. However, there is one thing that I can share with her. It is the truth that she loves her mother. Same with her, I also love my mother!

Japanese culture

 I'm proud of Japanese traditional art culture which is taken over from long long ago. For example, clothes called "kimono",which is very bearutiful. The design is delicate and everyone who wears kimono looks good in the clothes. I like Japanese detailed design. They are so nice.
 Also, I like Japanese pop culture like manga, which means comics. I'm proud of that I am Japanese to know many manga are popular all over the world. One Japanese manga, "ONE PIECE" is my favorite. I strongly recommend you to read it if you've never read it.

 I like most of my culture and I feel comfortable in my culture, but I don't like so much about one Japanese culture, that is: people are not so friendly, especially in the cities. I know that is because many Japanese are shy, and it doesn't mean they are not kind.  I just hope people will be more friendly.
 I heard that in Mexico, people talk each other a lot even if they don't know each other. It's so noisy in the trains or buses because people talk a lot. It's interesting. Compared with the culture in Mexico, people are so quiet in Japan. I think it's difficult for Japanese to be like Mexican, but if our culture became like them, our country and culture will be more attractive.

term papers…

It is January 4th today.
School is going to start soon.
I'm glad because I can meet my friends again.
However, we must turn in some term papers and we're going to have the final exams the week after next.
I have 2 papers to do.
To finish the papers, I have to read a few books, but I haven't read yet!!
I don't know if I can write good papers, but I do my best.
In addition, 3 exams are waiting for me.
It is said that students of SIS have few exams compared with students in other colleges.
I think so, too, but it is hard for me to study for the examinations.
Anyway, I like examinations better than papers.
First of all, I want to finish my papers!!
I'm going to read books (`o`)=3

Happy New Year

Happy new year,everyone!!
How are you spending the new year?

On 31th, I went to my grandfather's house, and we ate kamo-nabe.
It was verrry delicious. (^o^)/

Now, I'm watching "CDTV special."
There are many singers in the program.
For example, kobukuro, Kana Nishino, EXILE, ikimonogakari, aiko, and so on.
I'm looking forward to seeing aiko.
I like her songs and her personality.

I'm going to do my best in 2011.

My favorite holiday

My favorite holiday is Christmas.
I like Christmas because I can be happy.
The scene in cities are beautiful with Christmas decorations when it is getting near to Christmas.
In addition, I can hear Christmas songs when I walk down the streets or go shopping.
Also, my mother make delicious food on the evening of Christmas Day.
On the weekend, I can enjoy a Christmas party with my friends.
Those make me happy.
I love Christmas!!
