heyyyyyyyyy

hi, all. How are you?

Asami and Yasuko, I wish I were you.
I really wanna go abroad. Anywhere abroad is ok for me...

Anyway, I went to the west area of Japan from September 6th to 9th. I went to Shiga, Kyoto, and Osaka. I stayed in my BF's house for the 4 days. His family was so nice to me. The last day of my stay, I went to Kappa-sushi for dinner with them. And his mother said to me "eat what you want, how you want." Dont you think she is so nice????

All we were doing was shopping!!! The second day was in Kyoto and the third day was in Osaka. The forth day we both got so tired and we both had no money. Therefore, we were just watching TV. I felt comfortable if I was in the west. It's weird because I was born in Hamamatsu and I've lived here for 21 years. However, the west area is like my hometown. The people is warm, funny, and unique. I like the accent that the people have, you know?
I hope I can live in the area in the future.

Which do you like the east area and the west area in Japan?

special week

Hello~ I'm Aya.
How are you??

Last week, I had a wonderful time for 5 days.
I went to a facility for people have mental deficiency on September 3 - 7.
I took care of users there as a part of teaching course.
The users of the facility have various handicaps, but their smiles are very nice.

One of the staff said,
"It is comfortable for me to spend the time with the users.
Because there is no lies in this facility.
The users tell us their real feelings frankly even if they don't have words.
Therefore, I am always natural with them.
I am taught various important things by the users. It is happy for me to work here."

She talked about her job brightly. Her talk was impressive for me.

I had valuable experience there.
This program of nursing care gave me a chance to think about welfare and job.


See you~

Sea in Cairan

Hi guys! I'm home!

I went to
Cairns in Australia for 5 days
and experienced many beautiful natures maybe I can't do it in Japan and I can't do it again in my life...

Cairns was a little
colder than Japan, but not cold although it's winter season.
It was the good time to go because of no rain and not humid and not so strong sun season.
Though, the
sunray was stronger than Japan.
I heard the strength is as same as that directly on the equator!!!
Furthermore, the
price was SO high, I was so surprised.
It cost about \300 to buy only a small snack...
It has the bubble economy and prosperity in Aus.

Today, I'll write about one of the most excited experience,
SEA.
I went to the little island, "
Great Barier Reef" by a big ship.
Unfortunately... It took about 90 munites and was windy day, the ship was pitched and rolled heavily.....
.....about half of the passengers felt so bad or.....vomit.......ummmmm......

However, the island was so
BEAUTIFUL!!!!!
There were so clean seawater and so pretty colorful fishes.
I never seen like this clean sea!!!
I swam and snorkeled, and saw wild fish and coral and also big turtle!!!!!
It was so nice experience to see real natures in such a beautiful island.
I felt, touch and thought many things in Aus.
Also I enjoyed
sea food.

I'll introduce more about my trip inAus next time, C ya~

From Yasuko.

Well, I got a really terrible bad cold, but I recovered!!
Then, I'll tell you about my summere vacation.


At first, the biginning of Autumn, I went to the library, you know I'm taking the librarian course.






This is the library I went to.



Then, I experienced a lot of work as a librarian.
It was really interesting for me.
Also, now I'm going to drivers school.
Last Wednesday, I got a temporary drives's license!!
So, now I drive outside the school.
At first, I was scared to drive, but I changed my mind. It's interesting and really convenient. Don't you thik so?
Well, so almost everyday, I go to drives school, now.
But next weekend, I have a plan to travel☆
After I'll come home, I'll post the report.

Bye!

Traveling Abroad

Hi all~♪
I'm Asami. How are you??

By the way, I toured GUAM with my high school friends.
It was first time for me to go abroad and we had planned this tour from June, so I had been looking forward to this tour.


In Guam
1st day ; arrived Guam at night

2nd day; We went to sea, and watched wild dolphins,
snorkelled, riding Banana Boat, gathering
seashells, and etc...
Sea was so clear and beautiful!!
But, we couldn't stay there due to some squalls.

3rd day ; We went shopping.
      As you know, in foreign countries, brand-name
goods are cheaper than in Japan, so we bought some
goods. I bought a bag★




At night, we went to see a dinner show.
We watched hula and fire dance as we had a
barbecue.
It was so exciting!!

4th day; We were scheduled to return home.
But, due to tyhoon No.9, we couldn't leave Tokyo.
Therefore, we put up at home where one of
the member's grandparents live.

5th day; We got home at last!
We had some trouble, but we enjoyed this tour, and maybe this tour became one of my memorable thing.
I want to tour somewhere again!!


See you~♪

Hello~♪

Lately, I feel autumn. Hot summer will over soon. Are you happy or not?(^^)

Today, I will tell you CSN activities, too♪

Do you know Okonomiyaki of Ensyuu(遠州)??? Maybe it is famous in Hamamatsu.
We made it with children.
I didn't know it, but it is good!! Ingredients are flour, eggs, water, cabbages, pickled Japanese radishes (Takuann), and gingers. It is simple, isn't it?




Every children said, " It is gooooooood♪" I was very glad when I heard that.

By the way, for EDC party, how about YAKINIKU? (Gyuukaku)
I think we can enjoy without alcohol.
Please tell me your opinions!!!!!!!!!!!

Mt. Fuji!

Hi, all☆ I'm Maho.
Do you know what club I belong to? Actually, I belong to the Track and Field club
. With the members of my club, I went to Mt. Fuji on 29th and 30th! It's the first time I have climbed mountains.

Do you see something? It was bad weather--strong wind, thick fog and rain! We were going to see sunrise at the top of Mt. Fuji... But we couldn't go to the top because of the weather. We went to 9 goume finally. We started to climb at 5 goume. It took 6 hours to get to 9 goume from 5 goume. How tough!


But, when we were going down, the fog disappeared suddenly, and we saw great views from Mt. Fuji. I was moved very much! (We saw Outlet in Gotenba and Fujikyu Highland.)

It was so tough to climb Mt. Fuji, and I don't want to climb it again. However, it was a great experience for me because I felt a sense of achievement. Maybe for everyone, it will be a nice experience. If you have a chance to climb Mt. Fuji, you should try it!

One more thing. People who are climbing mountains are polite. It was very new to me. When people meet other people, they always say "Hello!". Isn' t it interesting? When people are in town, they don't say "Hello" to other people who don't know.

I'm looking forward to reading your posts. See you♪

Hi, I'm Mayumi.
I have to say sorry・・・long time no see;;

Well, the first half of August, I went to the library to train as a librarian.
Then, I got a really terrible cold!!
I had a fever of over 38 degrees;; It was really hard for me to get up. So I had been bed for whole 3 days.
What's worse, I have to go to driving school now. But, I'm not in normal condition;
Now, actually, even it's really hard for me to face PC and type this sentence;; Only standing, I swirl;
I wonder when I'll recover because I don't feel like eating.

But anyway, I have to go to driving school every day.
Maybe you guys arleady had a driver's license, hadn't you? How do you feel when you go to the school? I'm really anxicious.

Now, please take care.

Mayumi.

Do I go out too many times!?

Hello, everyone! How are you?? I'm YUMIKO!!

On August 29th...
I went to Nagoya with my friend Kahori who is a member of the EDC.

1) We visited Fujigaoka!!

I had lived in the area for three years. It has been about thirteen years since I left there, so I really wanted to go there!! The area was so comfortable to live because the Fujigaoka subway station was close, and the Nagoya interchange was close, too. Meanwhile, the area is calm and peaceful! We went to Starbucks in Fujigaoka. The coffee shop was built in November last year. Lots of aged men and women came there compared with Starbucks in Hamamatsu.




2) I got a black tote bag of DEAN & DELUCA finally!!

DEAN & DELUCA was located in MIDLAND SQUARE. DEAN & DELUCA is a market and cafe that was established at SOHO in New York in 1977. Many imported goods were sold, for example, coffee beans, tea, spices, pasta... I can't tell you everything! Besides, the marvelous delicatessen was there, too. Beautiful cakes, tasty-looking quiches and several precooked food were displayed in cases!!


I was so delighted to go Nagoya! I really appreciate letting my friend do as I like to do!!

Tell me your stories!

See you
