☆彡RiNkU pReMiUm OuTLeT☆彡

last week, i went to Rinku with my friends Yuka,Karei and Yusuke. i went to pick them up in Tennoji with my dad's car. it was Yusuke's idea to go by car which actually was a great idea! Karei came a little late and we were all surprised by Karei's hair style change. she had her hair cut totally differently as before!!
then, i started the engine and i began to drive them to Rinku to go shopping. it was a long way coz we prefered not to go by highway. it was fun having them entertaining me while i was driving♪we listened to music, told jokes and talked about many things.when we got to Rinku's parking, everyone got high because of the sea. we could see the airplanes because of the airport nearby. we took many pictures and already was having fun in just reaching there. after playing around the beach, we went shopping. everyone bought clothes and we found them very cheap. even cheaper than the city. after shopping, we got some coffee and went to the beach again. it was a bit cold but we enjoyed it so much. on our way home, we went to Saizeriya and had dinner. there,we had kind of a deep conversation and we could know more about each other. that day was one of my pleasant days of my life.

...fiNaLLy fiNiShEd!!!!! bUt...

hi! what's up!? recently,i've been posted about only good and fun things happening in my life. but actually,i was so busy...i had tests in CIE classes two days,one after another,and the last one today. (3 total). that means that i almost didn't sleep last week and this weekend. i'm close to death if i don't sleep well today! one of the tests worthed waking up all night and study, but some of them ,i'm really not sure about my grade. i hope my proffessors are kind enough to let a student like me pass this class...i should have parties because a nightmare of tests finished. but i actually can't do it coz there're 3 other papers just in CIE classes. in english2 class, the essay is due on the same day with CIE paper due! what is more, there's a day when the CIE paper due and the literature class's mid term is the same day!!!!! the coincidence is being so mean to me...i know that it's not good to post negative things but i wanted to share my sorrow lol
ne way, in these days of sacrifice for my studying abroad,i'll find an oasis and post about it!! c ya then!!!!

♪hAbLaR eSpAnNoL♪

hi! whazzup!? on friday, i went to yuka_shady's place with my friends yusuke and karei. yuka asked us to have a spanish lesson in her place. a girl named Beth from Italy was staying at yuka's house because she was going to many cities around the world with a group of people.and she had to send a video to tokyo that she is teaching spanish,so that she could participate in a contest to teach traveling around the world. i'm so proud to be part of her dream i hope she'll win!! many people may be thinking "why is she from Italy and she teached spanish?" the reason is that she speaks 7 languages!!!! she also speaks portuguese so i could talk to her in portuguese. ne way, we learned the world geography and how to introduce ourselves. we had so much fun in her class! i'm sure that her students will learn spanish so quickly. and i also felt sad not being able to have her class and talk to her ne more coz she is leaving today...after having the lesson,yuka made us Pasta! i was looking forward to her pasta! and it was very nice! i felt like i was in Italy coz she even served fruit and cafe after dinner. i felt sorry for yuka's sister coz yuka always asked her to do something lol and i was also surprised that yuka's sister went to the same high school as me♪ isn't it amazing!? i guess that's amazing just for me and her,though...lol (these pics r @ yuka's room)

the next day, we went clubbin and karaoke all night long! people from spain and somewhere i don't know came lol .in the club, we danced salsa and i drank a drink called MALIBU. it was so nice because i love coconut! and it really tasted like coconut. i wanted to try it again. when we danced in the club, takuji was so funny because he belongs to the dance club. and he was so cool! yuka laughed all the time!! but he is a nice dancer! in the karaoke, we sang songs in Japanese, Spanish and English. i felt very international. we had so much fun! when we were saying good bye,Beth told us to study languages. then i decided to study spanish harder. since we had so much fun for such a long time, i felt sad in saying good bye. i hope to see Beth again soon, and hang out with my friends. especially now that we're still young lol

RORO♪

hi! what's up? today i'll post about the day i went to a famous restaurant called RORO near gaidai,which is famous among gaidai students. My friend Yusuke invited me and Takuji. we went there after the orientation we had in CIE. Yusuke waited for me and takuji. when it finished, it was raining outside. but we were so hungry that we decided to go even in the rain. (none of us had umbrela). when we got there, we didn't know what we wanted to eat. but soon we decided to have the service lunch. me and yusuke had B and only takuji had A. In lunch A,there was a fillet of chicken and some other things that i don't remember lol
in lunch B,there was an omelet, rice, salad,tofu,fried fish and fried meat(kushikatsu). we enjoyed it so much because we were so hungry and it was delicious!!! since takuji is so fast in eating,i gave him a bit of my omelet when he finished and half of my tofu.
after eating, we talked about many things. especially about school. it was very funny when takuji imitated his teachers. we laughed and laughed for a long time! after that, we went home. we had such a good time and meal that we decided to come to RORO again. if u haven't gone there,i recommed u to go! because the food is good and it's cheap!! (the most important thing)

bEwiTcHeD☆。・:。・

today,i went to umeda to watch a movie called bewitched.
first,we were planning to watch fantastic 4,but our friend takuji who also wanted to watch it,couldn't come.and we thought about not going to watch movie at first,but i worked on my day-off to go to the movies today,so i didn't want to waste my holiday. then we decided to watch fantastic 4 with him when he can come together and watched bewitched today. the movie that we watched was very funny and cute. when the movie finished,we all said "it's cute". especially when she moves her nose to use magics. and i also reaffirmed that Nicole Kidman was one of the most beautiful actresses in the world.
after watching movie,we had nothing to do,so we decided to go to karaoke. we wanted to practice old japanese songs because we promised that when we go to karaoke next time,we only should sing oldies. so we practiced to sing to takuji next time. when we got out of karaoke,we decided to eat something. we went to a place called Dear.SOUP. we laughed about this name because it's funny when we translate it into japanese. but the food was good. i was very full. after talking a while we went home. i enjoyed hanging out with my classmates♪

!!!!fiEld tRiP!!!!

hi! long time no c!! i've been pretty busy coz classes had started. so i couldn't post...
ne way,i got a nice suntan yesterday coz i went to Asuka in Nara prefecture. i went there on a Field Trip from a CIE class that i take. it's about Japanese Art so we went there to see tombs and shrines and many other things. it was very interesting and useful for the class. our nice professor rent bicycles for us and we went around the places on our bikes. it was funny becoz i never rode on bike with so many people!!! lol
there were 21 people so we couldn't go across the street at once coz the sign soon became red.
at the end of the day i was very tired but it was great coz i made friends from other countries and i could learn many things about Japanese History♪
it's a shame that i can't post a picture...i forgot the camera that day!!!(/~\)

gOoD bYe ScOtT...

hi,here i go again but with the last post...it's too sad! i mean,i can keep my blog but it's not for scott's class...and to get things worse,scott is leaving japan so soon. i thought that no better teacher than my last year's english 1 teacher existed but scott is as good as her! so all of us will miss him so much! we learned many things from him,like, how to blog, about book report, the things that he experienced and many many many other things! it was so much fun blogging and having his class! first,i thought that i would fail this class coz i wasn't sure if i could wake up so early in the morning of monday. but i could go to most of the classes coz i was looking forward to scott's class. scott;u're a great teacher! never doubt about it ♪

hElP mE !! pArT 2...

Hi! how r u? now i realized that i only have 13 posts! i forgot that today was the day to cut off...i'm sorry scott...i didn't want to finish the blog like this...
ne way,i'll talk about what i did today. first,i went to school and talked with my friends ayumi and mai. then yusuke came after that and then takuji came. we had fun talking. after that i went to class. it was english literature class. it was good because it finished early and i talked to a girl who take the same class,karei lol
but there was a bad part...the teacher gave us an assignment of reading a book! i don't like reading a long story. especially in japanese. but i'll read just the summary or something! and i can't read a book because,as some of u know,i'm going to brazil and spend my vacation there. i'm going to meet my grandma! i'm so excited(^ - ^) after school,i went to a lybrary near my house to borrow for my exam of the literature class. this teacher gives us too much home work! then,i finally got home to study for tomorrow's test! but i haven't started yet coz i'm sleepy and lazy and i noticed that i had to post 2 more times!!! i'm not sure if i can pass those tests! somebody help me! i party too much and never study...

bUSy sTuDEnT LifE.....

whazzup!? how r u doin!? i've been working too hard on my part time job...so yesterday i had class in the morning but i overslept...and i didn't even go to the second class which is french. i heard after, that in both classes the teachers talked about the exam! i wasn't late recently and just in the day that teachers tell important things i oversleep...i'm so unlucky! so, today i had only one class because the ecology class was canceled. i could've stayed home because the only class that i had was not so important. i mean, every class is important but this one is less lol
ne way, i could've stayed home but i didn't because the teacher may say something important like about the exam. but he didn't!!! i went to school sweating so much to just hear nothing special about the exam!! poor me...
but on my way home i went to bargain again! i was looking for a cool hat, that is coming into fashion, when i went to bargain with my friend the other day, but i couldn't find what i want. so today i went by myself for a trip to find my hat lol
i found some kinds of hats but it wasn't exactly like the one i want. and when i find something close to what i want, it's too expensive, like, 5,000 yen! i wouldn't pay 5,000 yen for just a hat. i didn't wanna spend money with things i wasn't planning to buy but i ended up buying a cap and a bag...i really have to stop spending money!! have u gone to this year's summer bargain? i don't recommend u to go because u end up spending more money during the bargain season than usual days lol
or maybe that's just my case...

hi guys!!! whazzzup!?!? as most of u know, i passed everything(> U <) i passed the japanese interview! i can go to australia with all of my friends!!!!! im really happy now!! i mean, there's just one thing...i don't wanna leave my family coz i love them so much. i'll ask them to come visit me all the time!! and actually there's another thing. when we take the study abroad preparation classes, we usually don't have to go to some of the regular classes, but this time, we have to take both classes! so the possibilities to fail one of them is higher!!!!!!! i'll have to study really really hard...i'll do my best.
i wanna thank everyone who helped me,like practicing the interview with me, cheering me up or sent me messages. thank u thank u thank u!!!!!!!! and my friends who had the tests with me!! the two ayumis, takuji, mai and karei(^ - ^) let's try hard for the classes that begins next semester!!!

Praying for success...

hi! how r u doin? last time i passed the second test for study abroad and today i had the last japanese interview. i was so worried and stressed about this interview coz i've heard that the interviewers are really mean to us. PLUS, i'm not good at japanese so i wasn't sure if i could say what i really wanted to. and the interviewers are mean to people who can't speak clearly. so i was really stressed feeling really bad 4 about 3 days!!! but yesterday, many people sent me messages and called me to cheer me up. so when i woke up this morning, i thought that i would feel like throwing up but i didn't feel like that!lol
i mean, i did feel bad, but when i remembered what people told me the day b4 , i got much much better. i felt like i could get over it. i have the best friends in gaidai!!!
and when i got on the train and met my friend ayumi, i got a little more nervous but it wasn't so much like the last 2 days. as i mentioned b4 , i was reaally bad 4 a few days b4 the big day.
right b4 the interview, i was really nervous. but when it began, the other interviewees were asked many many things. i thought that i would be asked many difficult things 2. but when it was my turn to speak, they didn't ask me ne thing more than what they wanted to know. i felt like they were ignoring me!! but it was better 4 me coz if i speak longer, even i don't understand what i'm talking about. so it was much better than what i expected. i thought it would be a hell! but it was cool. i really wish all of my friends pass the test. the announcement is on tuesday. i can't wait!!!

My favorite song!!!!

today i'm goin to talk about my favorite song. actually i have 2 songs that i really like. one is a slow song called "corazon partio" by alejandro sanz. it's a spanish song and the singer is from latin america. he won the latin grammy awards. this song's title's meaning is broken heart in english. the song is about his heart breaking story. in the chorus part he sings "who is gonna give me the emotion, who is gonna ask me not to leave, who is goin to let me in if it gets cold tonight"(in spanish) the way he sings is very sad. and it makes me feel that he really had his heart broken. another thins that i like about this song is the latin sound of the acoustic guitar. it's very cool. the other song that i really like is a song called "breaking the habit" by linkin park. this song is not slow. it's rock. i don't understand the words very well but i really like the sound and the melody of this song. i mean, i understand what he is singing but i don't understand what he means in the song. linkin park is very cool. and they won many many awards in mtv with this song.
