I’m sorry to forget to write yesterday, but I think not everyone look it. haha
I make the best of continuing to write everyday. Yesterday, my writing class decided. It is A class, but I don’t know if I can follow the class, because I’ve never taken A class. I wanted to take B class, but it already decided, so I must give up. I will do the best.
I played soft tennis with my friend today. When I was high school student, I belonged to soft tennis club but I haven’t played tennis since I entered my university. So I couldn’t rally well. I will be muscular pain all over. I think I should sometimes exercise. Today my teacher who is adviser to tennis club moved from my old school to another school, so I called her. She was very happy and I promised her to go eating with member of the tennis club. I’m looking forward to meeting her and my friends.
After it, I met my friends in downtown, it was very fun. We talked for a long time. Everyone said me that your speech can’t listen, but I don’t think so, no I don’t want to believe it. haha
Anyway, I must wake up early tomorrow, because my university will start from tomorrow. I don’t want to go there, because I don’t want to look my grade. I think I drop some credits. If I look it, I will be sad. So I want to continue my vacation forever. (251)

Recently, my skin is bad, because I often hung out with my friends midnight. I also went to sea with my part time job’s friends yesterday. We talked about travel before going to sea, so we wanted to go somewhere. I suggested that we go to Aso and do astronomical observation, but we went to Aso this week, so they refused it. One of the friends suggested that we go to sea. We seldom go to sea, so we agree her opinion. We went to sea by car. Sea is very cold, so there aren’t any people in the sea. We were watching stars, but we couldn’t see falling star. I wanted to see it. Yesterday, I had a good time.(121)

Do you have some best friends? I have best friends. I met my best friends today. I have known them since seven years. When we were junior high school students, we always hung out. Recently, I seldom hang out with them, because they went on to college of other prefectures, but their colleges are spring vacation now, so they came back to Kumamoto. I had a part time job, so I couldn’t meet them from daytime, but they were waiting for me, so I could meet them after my work. We went to downtown. We ate late supper. While we ate supper, we were talking about our lives. I envy them, because most friends live by themselves. I thought I want to live by my self, because I can invite my friends to my room, I don’t have to mind my family and I can be free. They looked like enjoyable. But I can’t cook, so I must practice to cook.
They were very funny, so I always laughed. I had a really good time. (175)

Today, I will talk about farewell party. I had to leave Canada on March seventh, so I was going to graduate from KGIC on March fifth. My KGIC friends hold the farewell party for me on March fourth. As I was nineteen years old, I could drink. Canada’s beer was so good. I thought beer is very bitter and it isn’t easy drink, but it was easy drink. Japanese friends said me “Canada’s beer is better than cocktail.” I drank beer and cocktail and I thought so. Canadian is pride of beer, because whenever they drink, they say me” Canada’s beer is great.” So I think so. I was drunken much drink by them. We drank about four hours. It was so fun.
After it finished, I was regard, because I had many opportunities, but I’ve never gone drinking. I always say everybody “you treasure meeting and time with your friends.” Most people can’t notice importance of friends, because they are too close. When they part friends, they notice it. Although I notice it, I often regard.
In this case, I regard, but I made many memories with them, so I don’t mind. I never forget it forever for sure. It was treasure for me. (205)

I will talk about my birthday in Canada. My birthday is March first. So I spent my birthday in Canada. First of all, when I went to KGIC, many people remembered my birthday, so they celebrated me. Some people sang birthday song for me, 　other people gave me some presents. Not only students of KGIC, but also teachers of KGIC celebrated me. Some people invited me to drink, because if people are nineteen years old in Canada, they are allowed drinking in legally. Although they invited me, I refused it, because my Japanese friends invited me to eat dinner the day before my birthday. So we went to Japanese restaurant to celebrate me after school. They bought birthday cake for me and sang birthday song in front of me. After then, we talked long time. It was so fun. It was the best birthday I’ve ever lived.
Today I met my senior at college. She graduated from Kumamoto Gakuen University this spring. I didn’t go to the graduation ceremony of my college, so I didn’t her. She will work in Fukuoka from April, so I wanted to meet her. I promised her to meet today. It was very fun. We talked about Canada, New Zealand, love, future and my university. I consulted with her about going abroad and she cheered me, so I was very happy. We also saw cherry. We impressed it. When I parted her, I didn’t want to part her. I wanted to talk more. But from Kumamoto to Fukuoka are closer than From Kumamoto to Canada, so I can meet her all day, so I smiled in front of her and she also smiled. I think I want to treasure meeting more from now.(288)

I want to talk about my Japanese life. Today, I went to Aso with my friends of my part time job. They get along famously, so we often go somewhere. We are similar family. Today’s temperature was rainy, so although we went to Aso, we didn’t see some view. I think Aso is famous for Aso Mountain, soft serve ice cream and hot springs, so we ate it and went to hot springs. Ice cream was very dense, so it was very delicious. Hot spring was very comfortable. It made me relax and I could break free from my fatigue. I also went eating in the restaurant of all I can eat. I like it, because I can pick up only my favorite foods.
We could talk about something. For example, our future, plan of play and personality. It was so enjoyable. I had a good time, but I’m sleepy, because we hung out with them all night. I wanted to go to bed soon. (165)

I went to the theater with my friends of KGIC. I was surprised that to watch a movie in Canada is very cheap. I only paid $8. In Japan case, I must probably pay at least $15. Canada’s theater is cheaper than Japan’s one. I watched “Shutter Island”. The movie doesn’t release in Japan yet. Maybe it will release on April 9. I will watch it again, because when I watched it, I couldn’t understand its contents. My friends also couldn’t understand. So I want to watch it in Japan. It was a suspense movie, so it was difficult for me to understand it. If I watched an action movie, I could understand and be fun. Most action movies seen are battle, so I think I can guess this situation and content. But it was good experience.
Yesterday, I played bowling with my friends of speaking class. I planed it. A few people came. I haven’t played bowling for a long time, so I couldn’t demonstrate. My score was so worst, but I had a good time with my friends.(180)

Today, I will talk about farewell party of my Japanese friends. I could know some Japanese because my Kumamoto Gakuen University friends who live in Halifax now introduced me them. Although I knew them, they had to go back to Japan, so their friends hold the party for them and they invited me it, so I joined it. We went to our Canadian’s house. Everyone cooked some meal each other for them there. I also cooked pasta with my friends. It was so good and we could make them happy. We drank there except me, because I wasn’t nineteen years old. I wanted to drink. Although I couldn’t drink, it was so fun. I had a good time. I thought I want to be a good friend for us forever. I promised them that I will meet them for sure. One of them will come to Kumamoto in this summer, so I’m looking forward to meeting them. (157)

I will talk about having gone skiing. I went skiing on the event of KGIC. I have skied once on school trip, so I was confident about skiing well, but in fact I couldn’t ski well. I also have some discomfort, because when I went skiing, I was fifteen years old, so I thought that I forget how to ski. I had a good image, but I also have a bad image. As was widely predicted, I couldn’t ski. Most people chose snowboard. Although I could choose it, I chose ski, because I’ve never played snowboard, so I didn’t think I can do it in time. But people who have never played snowboard could do it well. So I should have chosen it. Most people could do it very well and they were very cool. I wanted to be them, but it was impossible. They taught me how to ski, so I could ski better than the first few hours. I want to do it with friends of KGIC again. It was good experience for me.
I ask for god. I want to ski with my friends in Kumamoto, so please fill up Kumamoto with a lot of snow. By doing this, I can ski in Kumamoto. (207)

　I will talk about Second week of Canada’s life from today. There was “Pajama Party” in KGIC on Tuesday. People who are in KGIC had to wear pajama there on the event, but most people forgot it, so they didn’t wear pajama. A few people wear it. It was the funny event, so I took some pictures.
The temperature of Wednesday was heavy snow, so all schools were no class. The snow piled up high, so we must shoveled out snow. I’ve never seen this view and shoveled out. To shovel out it was first experience for me, so I was very happy to try it. We took three hours to shovel out, so we were very tired. But it was good experience.
I made a snowman with my friends after shoveling out. It was also first experience for me. There was much snow outside, so it was easy for us to make it, but it was tired. (158)

　February 14 is New Year for Korea. There is a roommate who is Korean in my house, so my host family decided to celebrate it for him. Then, he and I had to cook each other’s country meal. So I decided to cook okonomiyaki which is Japanese food. I think everyone knows it. Although I decided it, I have never cooked it, so I worried if I can cook it. I consulted with my Japanese friend who is Kumamoto Gakuen University student, so she decided to teach me how to cook okonomiyaki the day before February 14. The previous day, she made it in front of me, so I could understand how to make it. I tried making it. While I made it, she gave me some advises beside me, so I could make it well. On the day of making okonomiyaki, I cooked it, my roommate cooked Korean soup and my host mother also cooked sushi which is Japanese food. We ate it after cooking. My host family said me “ It was so good”. So I was very grad. It was good experience for me. (186)

I’m going to talk about my Canada’s life. First week, I met my Canadian friends who met in Kumamoto Gakuen University. I went to the restaurant with them. To have gone to restaurant in Canada was first time for me. I ordered a hamburger. When it was taken my seat, I was surprised at its volume. It was bigger than Japanese one, so I didn’t know if I can eat all it, but they could eat all imprudently. Its taste was very good, so I also could eat all. Next day, there was KGIC’s event. It was cooking pizza. Some teachers told us how to make it. I could make it well. Its taste was so good.
I joined Kanji Class on which Sent Mary University students teach Canadian Japanese after the event. It is a volunteer. There were a lot of Canadian there. I also taught some Canadian Japanese. It was very difficult for me to teach someone something, but it was good experience and I could make many new friends. “
On Thursday, I went to “Moustache” which is restaurant with my friends. Every Thursday, Chicken Wings were discounted 50 percent, so we ordered it. It was very good, but I think it was very bad for my health, because it has a lot of oil and I didn’t eat vegetable.
On Friday, I went bowling. Canada’s bowling and Japanese are very different. First of all, bowling bales were smaller than Japanese. Secondly, I can throw three a game. It was very good. I was excited. (258)

Today, I will talk about my language school. Its name is KGIC. There are a lot of KGIC in Canada. It started from March eighth. I was very nervous, because I’m shy.
When I arrived at KGIC, I met many people there. There are eleven Korean and two Saudi Arabian. They are very kind for me. This school is very small, because it opened on February first.
I took an exam to divide class. It was very difficult, so I hardly solved it, but I thought I could solve only grammar. When I finished the exam, I was divided my class by my result of the exam. Grammar class was level three. Writing class, listening class and conversation class were level two. After it, I ate lunch there with my classmates. When I talked everyone, I noticed that I was the youngest in KGIC. All students outside me are over twenty years old, so they treated me kindly. After lunch, I took part in conversation class. It was very difficult, because I don’t know many vocabularies, so I couldn’t understand what they said me and I hardly do conversation with my classmates. Then I wondered if I can follow another class.
There are some rules in KGIC. One of the rule don’t speak another languages, so when I don’t know something, I can’t ask someone it in Japanese. We must use only English, so it was very hard for me. (240)

I always think Halifax, so I want to talk about Halifax today. Especially I want to talk about my host family.
I stayed in Halifax for a month, so I have a lot of memories of Halifax.
I left Japan bound for Halifax on February sixth and I arrived at Halifax at 10:30 p.m. I met my host family. They are very kind for me, so I love them. My host mother was very kind and often took me somewhere. She made lunch for me everyday. It was so good. My host father was very funny. He always told me absurd joke, so he often made me smile. There is a roommate in our house. He is Korean, twenty-five years old and very smart, so he often taught me English. I think my home stay is rich, because they have a party every week. They invite their two daughter’s family. They are also kind for me. One of the daughters is a teacher, so when she came my house, she taught me English. The other is a hair designer. I should have been cut my hair by her.
At any rate, I love my host family. (196)

I arrived at Japan today. My travel time is about seventeen hours, so I’m very tired and there is fourteen hour time different between NY and Japan, so days and nights are reversed. I feel jet lag now, so I can’t sleep. First of all, I left NY bound for Tokyo in the morning. It took thirteen hours to arrive at Tokyo by air-plain. Secondly, I left Tokyo bound for Fukuoka. It took about two hours to arrive at Fukuoka by air-plain. Finally, I left Fukuoka bound for Kumamoto. It took about two hours to arrive at Kumamoto by bas, so my travel time is about seventeen hours. It was long traveling for me.
When I went back home, I ate rice. I hardly eat rice oversea, so I wanted to eat rice, so I was happy to eat rice and my mother’s dinner was very good.
I miss oversea and my friends. I always think what are they doing now?? So I will type about Canada from tomorrow. (169)

Today, I watched MARY POPPINS. To watched musical was first time for me, so I expected it. It was so good. I could listen a lot of songs of Mary Poppins. I knew most songs, because I have watched its movie. I like this one, so I usually sing this songs. Especially, I like "Chim Chim Cher-ee". Do you know?? I think that most people have heard this song. Musical was impressive performance,so I want to go watching some musicals again. Everyone should watch musical in NY.

I must go back to Japan tomorrow, so I'm packing now. I don't want to leave here, because I don't want to part new friends. I could meet a lot of people abroad, but I must leave here, so I must part them. They were kind me and always helped me, so I love them. I don't forget them for sure and I want to keep in touch them forever. Friends are treasure for me. I'm going to want to treasure meeting more. Meeting and travel make me grow up. I feel most grateful that my parents allow me to go abroad. It was gooooooood experience for me. I want to go abroad again.(202)

Today, it was rainy and I didn't feel well, so I didn't want to go out, but my trip is only three days, so I decided to go out and put off going to the musical until tomorrow.

At any rate, I went to a zoo. This zoo is in Central Park.There are a few animals in the zoo, so I couldn't watched a lot of animals.

This animal is polar bear. It was very big.

I will introduce jokey phrase about polar bear.

A"800 pound polar bear!!"

B"what"

A"It's an icebreaker"

KGIC's teacher told me this phrase. It is very funny. I'm not good, so I will go to the bed.(113)

MARY POPPINS is musical of Disney. Do you know?? I was going to watch "MARY POPPINS". I went to New Amsterdam Theatre to buy ticket, but today was no show, so I couldn't watch it today. I will watch it tomorrow for sure. haha

Instead of musical, I went to shopping. I went to Abercrombie&Fitch which is American brand. Recently, Japan's first Abercrombie&Fitch's outlet opened in Ginza. I know this name, but I've never gone there, so it was first time for me. I bought a perfume there. It is good smell,so I like it. It was $44. I thought it is expensive, but I considered it is American brand, so I thought it is resonable price. My trip is only 4 days, so I want to treasure the last several days.(132)

Today, I went to Empire State Building, souvenir shop and Macy's. First of all, I went to Empire State Building. It is 443 meters high and the highest building in the NY city. I was impressed this view, because it was the most beautiful view I've ever seen. I think that to go there at night is better than in the daytime. I will also advise someone to go there. There were a lot of people in there and most people were couples, so I envied them.......haha. Briefly, everyone should go there.
Secondly, I bought some souvenirs which are T-shirts that are written I love NY and key rings for my friends and family in souvenirs shop. I must buy a lot of souvenirs, so I will spend much money. lol
Thirdly, I went shopping in the Macy's. Macy's is one of the largest department stores in the world, It was so big. In fact, I was lost there. haha There are many branded stores there. I bought some clothes and bag. It was very good, so I will use next time. (179)

Today, I went to the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Do you know?? It is near Central Park and it is too large, because I took four hours to see everything, but it was very interesting. I think European Paintings are the most interesting works in this museum. I like to draw some pictures, so I interested in some pictures, especially landscapes. There are a lot of landscapes in this museum, so I can enjoyed more. It was very grand and wondaful. If I meet someone who will go to NY, I would advise them to go there.
I also went to Central Park. It is very large. I can't believe that there are some roads and big lakes in this park, but it is very calm and there are a lot of people in park. I walked long distance, so my legs are very tired. I must take a break. see you~:) (151)

Today, I went to Statue of Liberty, ground zero and shopping.

First of all, I went to Statue of Liberty. I woke up at 9:00 and I leave my room at 10:30. Although I arraived there around 11:00, there were a lot of people there, so we had to wait for a long time. When I saw Statue of Liverty, I impressed, because it is the best place I've ever seen, It was really beautiful. I learned U.S's history in there and I bought some souvenirs for my family.

Secondly, I went to Ground Zero. There was a museum near Ground Zero, so I went there. There were a lot of pictures about World Tread Center. When I saw it, I wasvery sad. We don't know when people die, so I think we must treasure our lives and grateful for our families.

Fainally, I went to shopping, Not only there are many clothes' shops in NY, but also most clothes are cheap, so I can buy many clothes. Although today I bought only souvenirs, next time I will buy many clothes here.(182)

I will start my blog from today....maybe!!haha
Today, I will introduce myself. My name is Kosei Kambara. I'm from Kumamoto. I'm 19 years old. My hobby is playing a lot of sports and talking my friends.
Now my university's spring vacation, so I went to Canada for a month, and I stay in New York now. I will stay here for a week. Today, I arraived here, so I didn't go somewhere. I will see Statue of Liberty tomorrow. If I take some pictures, I will post my pictures on this website, but I don't know how to post some pictures, so I think I takes a lot of times to post. haha(111)
