I restarted studying English!

I went to the English school today after a year and half absence.
I was nervous but excited.
I was in the level 3, same as before. Because I haven't study English for 6 months... , I need to practice and study it!
Because...
I wanna speak English!! I'll do my best!

I'm gonna go to the school regularly!!

my summer

I haven't written for a few month... because I was BUSY! I think.. ;)

I'm gonna write about my life these days.

I took a summer vacation in the middle of September.
I visited to my friends places, Shizuoka, Chiba and Tokyo.
I had fun a lot!


I ran 5k marathon race!
It was third time, but still difficult. I ran, and then walk... walk...walk...
my immediate goal is to run 5k! I mean.. not walk!!
I need to practice harder.

The race has many prizes for good runners. Many people got DAIKON! It was fun!!


I will re-start studying English from tomorrow!!

SAKURA.

I went to shrines with my frined this weekend .
It was sunny days.
Sakura was wonderful!!

On Saturday, we visited Futabashira shrine.

There are Gods of Love! It's really popular with girls!

I saw many girls. :) Of course, we are two of them. :D

Today, we visited to Shiogama shrine.
We prayed to gods about our happiness.

This Sakura is " Shiogama zakura (=sakura)".
It's beautiful and cute!

Shiogama shrine has many kinds of Sakura!

We can enjoy that for a long time.

I had a great time! Thanks to my friend. :)

My birthday!

I had a welcome party with my bosses and co-workers last night.


My office has 8 people, 3 people out of 8 people are new face, including me.


I started working in March, then 2 people came this month.


Yesterday was my birthday eve, one of my co-workers remembers my birthday.



We talked about that just once! But she remembers.



They prepared my birthday cake!



I didn't know that.I was really surprised and happy!!

My dad bought some cakes for me! I must be getting fat!! lol

And also I got many message from my friends. I'm really happy!

Thank you everyone!!

I went sightseeing with internatioal students!

I went sightseeing with international students.

My old boss took them, I joined them, too.

They are from Australia, Iran, China, Italy.

They speak English very well, but I couldn't...:(

That was still difficult for me, but I really enjoyed with them. :)

We visited "shiogama jinja"(shinto shrine), "shiogama fish market", "zuigamji(temple)" and we got on a boat at Matsushima bay.

That was really fun!

at the fish market and ate shrimp

They really enjoyed and of course me too!

I had lunch and nabe!

I saw many friends and old co-workers this week.
I mean..... I don't have other topics.





I had a "lunch-set" at the time, many Japanese restaurants has "lunch-set".
It's usually good price!




This time, the set was 850 jpy and has salad, pasta, dessert, and "all you can drink (nonalcoholic beverage)".



The dessert made me happy! because usually set's dessert is not so special, but the one was very cute and good.

After lunch, I went to my old office and saw many co-workers, I had coffee and tea and talk alot. ;)
I talked too much, I thought they couldn't work... I'm sorry!

Then I went drinking with co-workers!

We had NABE! This is "zousui", we usually put rice or noodle in leftover soup after Nabe.

I'm going to start working next Monday! I have to enjoy this weekend!!

BABY!

It was sunny day yesterday, today too.

I didn't need my jacket. I felt... Spring!

I visited my friend's house to see my friend and her new born baby!

We are childhood friends, we were friends from kindergarten.

We went to different high school, but we were still friends.
She had the baby while I stayed in Canada!
I'm so happy to see them.
She has 2 boys, 7 and 3 years old, and the baby girl, 4 months!
Before I went to Canada, I often went to her place and played with 2 boys.

They are growing up very much! I enjoyed with them.

3 years old boy, he is so funny and cute!

I'm going to go to the office I worked.
I'm going to have a lunch and dinner with many old co-workers!

I'm excited. :)
