March 25th Blog

Hey, hey, hey! I was surprised today because Ji Young who is one of previous exchange students from Korea is in Kumamoto now!! I knew it just now when we were chatting by msn. I didn’t know that really. She will give me a birthday present. I’m glad to hear that, but it’s more pleasure that we can meet again! In Kumamoto!! It’s unbelievable!!

By the way, I didn’t read the book which I said yesterday on my post. I completely forgot about it today, although I was just chilled out at home today till before part-time job. I have to read it as soon as possible.

Now, let me introduce the attached video. This song’s name is “Talk Show On Mute”, and “Incubus” sings this song. This is my favorite song of them. I love this band and their all songs! They are famous in the world, I think.

That’s it today. Maybe I will post book review tomorrow!
See you!!

March 21st Blog

The title of this post is March 21st Blog, but I'm writing this 22nd because I was too busy yesterday. So I couldn't post book review and about some things yesterday.
Maybe I will post the book review today's night because I already finished reading a book for book review yesterday afternoon.

I'm in the library of KGU now, and I will go to HI Hirose to meet to Ji Young. Today, at 10:45am, she called to me, and she said "Do you have time now? Can you meet??" I answered "Yeah, sure!! So let's meet in front of Hirose at 11:30" She said, "OK" I said, "All right, see you soon!"
However, she didn't come out...maybe she heard 11:30 as 1:30, so I'm going to go to there right now.

All right, see you tonight!!

This video is a song of Paramore, CrushCrushCrush. I attached their video. How is this? This is good, isn’t it? I like them.

By the way, today was the graduation ceremony of KGU. Unfortunately, however, I couldn’t go the ceremony because of the sickness… I really wanted to say thank you to my seniors, Yui, Ai, Mai, Saeun, Kota, Asami, and so on… Why I caught the cold? What did I do? Did I do something wrong?? I don’t think so… But I sent them a message by mail. I respect them, and I always appreciate. They always treated me, they always taught something good, and they always gave me some advices. My heart filled with gratitude. From now on, it’s our turn. I mean, we have to treat our junior, we have to teach something good, and we have to give them some advices. I hope to be so, and I will try to be the person. This is not last chance to meet the seniors, I think. We can meet each other anytime, and we can hang out with them! I hope so. I hope everything is going well for my respectful seniors!!

Today was my job day, so I worked at Nabeshima, although I am sick. The owner made forced to work for 5 hours… I’m flippin tired… I have to take a holiday… Oh, I have to read some books for this blog and the book review of writing III class.

I’m sleepy right now, but I have to take a bath before I go to bed.

Oh, let me talk a little more. Jumong was broadcasted on 8:00pm today as usual, but I couldn’t watch it…because of the job. I can watch it on Friday afternoon, but I wanted to watch it today!!! Wednesday’s is important!! Umm…the owner of Nabeshima sucks, but I can’t complain anything to him. Gosh!! I MUST watch it on Friday, don’t let me miss it!!

All right, see you tomorrow as usual!!

I caught a cold... Yesterday, I had a throatache but I didn't think it will be bad, the ache will vanish tomorrow... But it will not be so.. I have headache, cough, and fever.
I have to work tomorrow, so I have to recover from this sickness.

By the way, I found a good music band, Paramore. Actually, I have known this group because they were nominated on the Grammy Award. However, I didn't try to listen to their songs till yesterday.
Their songs are really good!! They became one of my favorite music bands, rock bands! My favorite song is "CrushCrushCrush." I will attach the music video of this song tomorrow, so check it out!

See you tomorrow!

I forgot to write about my birthday yesterday. Yesterday, after I posted, I went to the dorm by myself. I met Dan and Robert, and we played the Super Mario Cart 64. It was fun!! I like playing video games.
During we were playing the game, 2 of new students from Korea came to here. And we became friends soon!! I was very happy because I didn't think we could be friend so quickly! They are very very fine and they can speak Japanese very very well.
After playing the game, I met 2 new students from Montana State University, Zack and Cole. I also became their friend, and they celebrated my birthday!! I'm such a lucky boy!!
And then, Dan, Robert, Brendan, and I went to Joyfull to eat dinner. I ate chicken doria. It was good, what is better, Brendan bought me the meal. Besides it, Jessie gave me a cake!! I'm soooo happy!!
Many friends celebrate my birthday in many ways. I'm such a lucky boy as I said.
I'll never forget this day. I will celebrate my friends birthday!

By the way, I began to work at Nabeshima in Asoda from 6th on this month as a waiter. It's hard to work, and I have to memorize many things like menu, greeting, and things I need to work at the restaurant. I have holiday today and tomorrow, but I have to go there from Wednesday till Sunday. I think I will be tired...but it's OK because I can get some money!!

Anyway, I'm good these days as usual. I'm waiting a gift from a Korean girl, but maybe she didn't send me the gift.

All right, see you!

Hello! How are you doing? I'm sorry I couldn't post the day... I have to keep my word...so sad.

By the way, I finally became 19 today!!! I'm so happy because I was 18 although my friends were already 19 during the semseter. 18 was too young for me, and most of women's seniors envy me like, "I envy you!", "Let's exchange our age, shall we?", "Why are you still 18!?", or "Hey, you should be 20 as soon as possible!" like these. Even though I became 19 today, it's still too young for me. I want to be 20 now...

I'm in school library right now, so I'm writing this at there. After this, I'm going to go to the drom which for international students. Some of exchange stuudents celebrate my birthday at the dorm, so I have to go there. I've got some emails from my friends, and also my mother gave me a message. I'm really gald. I have to cherish my family and friends.

Today, I took TOEFL ITP at SAC*CES ENGLISH ACADEMY, but I couldn't do well. I didn't study for it these days, so I couldn't catch words on the listening section, and I couldn't figure out on the reading section. Maybe I could get good score on the grammar section. I have to study English, especially TOEFL, because I really really REALLY want to go to America for study abroad... Mr.Tomei, please let me pass the exchage program exam this year!!! PLEASE!!! I got a confidence which I can use to pass the exam this year in last year, but it's not concern with professours... I'm afraid of failing this year... I need to study hard and to prepare for it now, I know...

Anyway, it's time to finish. I have to write a message for my pen pal who is Finnish girl.
All right, see you later!!

Hello! How have you been?? I was in Beppu this past weekend with Brendan who is an exchange student. We went to a lot of onsen (hot springs) during the weekend. We went to kind of traditional hot springs, sand beach bath, and mud bath. We refreshed! hehe



We also went to Jigoku Meguri (The "Hell" Tour). There are 8 hells in Beppu, Umi Jigoku(Sea hell), Oniishi Bozu Jigoku(Oniishi Shaven Head Hell), Yama Jigoku(Mountain Hell), Kamado Jigoku, Oniyama Jigoku(Ogre Mountain Hell), Shiraike Jigoku(White Lake Hell), Chinoike Jigoku(Blood Lake Hell), and Tatsumaki Jigoku(Tornado Hell).

Umi Jigoku has a mystic and cool cobalt blue lake, so it's really beautiful but it's 98 C...
Oniishi Bozu Jigoku has mud lakes. Of course, it's also soooooo hot, 98C. I can't explain about this hell. Seeing is believing!! You should go there!!hehe
There are several kinds of animals in the Yama Jigoku. There are duck, peafowl, hippopotamus, elephant, flamingo, and llama. However, this place is kinda boring, I think, because there are just animals.
Kamado Jigoku has a statue of Orge. And it's like small town, this hell has 6 "cho-me(丁目)".
There are many crocodiles in Oniyama Jigoku. And we can see the feeding to them! I could see it luckily.hihi
Shiraike Jigoku has mysterious lake. The lake changes the color of boiled water occasionally in a year. It's sometimes blue, sometimes green, and sometimes purple!!
Chinoike Jigoku has red lake. Its color looks like blood, so it was named "Chinoike."
Tatsumaki Jigoku has geyser!! It looks like tornade!!

...Can I explain about those in Japanese?? humm.... It's hard to do that in English. I have to study English more! I have to know much more vocabulary!! I'll try to do that.

Haha, I'm little bit tired today. I'm gonna start new job tomorrow, so I gotta take a sleep.

Next post will be on Thursday(tomorrow).
See you tomorrow!!
