June 27

I had a boring class today. Now I'm taking a business English course. I like all of my classmates and enjoy another teachers classes, but I don't like today's teacher's classes. His explanation is not clear and his pronounciation is hard to understand. Plus, I think he doesn't prepare enough for classes. I usually don't like his class and often fell asleap, but today's class was especially horrible. I complained with Korean guy who sat next to me during the class.

My Holiday

My 10 days holiday finished this Sunday. I went to Sydney during my last holiday, but I didn't go anywhere special in this time. I had just relaxing time. I went out for shopping with my friends couple of times, and went to the birthday party of my friend's boyfriend on Saturday. I spent all of other time with my one of Japanese friends who lives near my house. He is the only Japanese student who lives in the same town as me, so we spent time together every weekends. We always just stay at either of our house and study together. We also make our lunch by ourselves. I can't cook at all, so my friend always teach me how to do it. He calls it 'cooking class for you'. I feel I really need to learn cooking from my mother after I go back to Japan.

Love Actually

I watched "Love Actually" at my house. I'd watched this movie before once. In that time, I didn't think this is not that good movie, but in this time, I found it is very incredible one.
This movie shows that there are a lot of kinds of love in our lives. Love between men and women, sisters and brothers, fathers and sons, and friends... And the movie also shows that love is not always just a thing make you happy. It sometimes brings you a great sadness and agony. Though, I still thought love is wonderful after I watched this movie, and I miss Christmas!

Just Married

My host family has a lot of DVD, so I borrow them and watch in my room when I have nothing to do. I want to watch all of DVD before I leave this house. Anyway, I watched the movie which called 'Just Married'. This is a love comedy. A guy and a woman fall in love and decide to get marry very soon. The woman whose name is Sarah is from a very rich family and they are not so happy about the maridge. The guy whose name is Tom is a guy who loves sports and doesn't have any interests about fancy things. Sarah and Tom are very different, but they get marry because they love each other very much. They think everything is going well, but it isn't... Their perfectly-planned European honeymoon becomes a tragedy.

Zoo

I went to a zoo with my host family. It was a special zoo and all animals which are there are Australian animals. I saw a lot of Australian animals such as koara, kangaroo, tasmanian devil, emmue and so on. The koara was much bigger than I had imagined and very massive. Now my image of koara changed.

I finished 3rd term

I graduated my third class on Friday and I have 10 days holiday now!
I attended morning class and after that, I went to eat Saudi Arabian food with a Japanese friend and two Saudi Arabian friends. My Japanese friend Ko-chan is a good friend of them and he often goes to eat with them, and most of time, it's all their treat! I was always envy him because he always eats delicious dishes for free.
Though, that day, I finally could go with them! I ate Kapsa which is a kind of fried rice with meat and vegetables. It was delicious and it was all on Saudi Arabian friends!
I was very happy to eat delicious food for free.

Different World

Samantha is a 18-year-old girl who cannot hear anything because of her illness. She fell in love with a guy who works at the store in front of her house. She goes to the shop to meet him, but she can't say anything to him. One day, she meets him at a party and gets along with him. She feels very happy, though a girl who calls herself his girlfriend appears in front of Samantha and says, 'You can't make him happy because you can't hear his music which means the world to him!'. Samantha is very shocked by her words. She feels she lives the different world from him.

Boku ha benkyou ga dekinai

I borrowed this book from one of my friends. Now I miss Japanese novels more than any other things! I can see now how much I like Japanese sentences. I knew that I like reading very much and I also like reading in English, but I didn't know I like Japanese Language so much! I guess it is impossible for me to live without Japanese books. I was very happy when I got this book from my friend and I already finished the book in 2 days. I tried to take a long time to read it because I have no other books to read, but I couldn't help myself.

The main character in this novel is a 17-year-old boy Hidemi Tokita, who is not good at studying but loved by many girls. He likes playing soccer and has a good relationship with an elder woman who works at a bar. He doesn't care if people call him stupid, because he doesn't think it is important whether people get good marks on their tests or not. He has his original sense of value, same as his grandfather and mother.

I like Hidemi's relationship with his family. It seems little strange at first sight, because the have very different sense of value from other people. Though they never care about it and proud the way they live. I think they live very honestly, and that's why they can trust and love each other. I think they are precious family.

What I'm thinking about

I hadn't written for a long time.
It past more than three months after I came Australia. Now I'm used to a life here. It is very natural for me to spend everyday in Australia and it is more difficult to imagine a life in Japan.

Now I have a completely different life here from Japan. I wake up everyday in my new bed, meet and talk with new friends, study with classmates from different countries... It's all different from what I had in Japan.
I'm very enjoying life in Australia, but to be honest, I sometime feel strange and confused... I still do.

Actually, I feel strange these days.
Some of my friends also ask me 'What's on your mind? You sometime look strange these days.'
Well, I'm not sure what's wrong with me by myself. I'm usually thinking about so many things in my mind, so I'm not sure which one occurs this feeling. But... I guess it's because I'm worrying about my future.

I really like living here very much and feel happy that I could come here. That's why I'm afraid of the days after finishing staying here. I know I can't stay here and be with all people whom I met here forever. It will be completely changed one day and I'm afraid that day. I'm thinking what I can do now for my future.

Yoshinoya!

We went to Yoshinoya in Sydney!
There is no Yoshinoya in Melbourne, so it was very valuable time.
We all were very impressed. We went to Yoshinoya two times during we were staying in Sydney. It was nice. I wish there was Yoshinoya in Melbourne... but we have Ajisen-ramen in Melbourne, so that's ok.
