this week,there was a ceremony to congratulate the students who passed the study abroad preparation classes. since the last time i wore a suit and everybody told me i looked like an office worker, i wanted to look like a student as i am. so i did my hair and changed the color of my shirt. it was worhtless...i was told that i looked like a teacher,a man in a construction and other things that are no longer YOUNG...what encouraged me was Masa's word. he said i was cool in my suit lol
ne way,the girls had to wear their dress and i was looking forward to seeing them in a dress. in the ceremony, i was impressed by the student's speech. but what i was moved the most was my anthropology teacher's speech. he spoke in the same way he did the class so i felt that i miss the class a lot. and it was a little bit sad coz i'll keep missing his class. i also got the certification and i was very happy with it!
i wanna thank my proffessors Mr.Hlawach,Fedorowicz,special thanks to Yusuke and Masa for waiting us till the ceremony finished, and my friends who studied hard with me,Ayumi,Mai and Takuji!! it has been a long way but it was just the beginning...

today,me Ayumi and Yusuke went to the Karaoke in Namba where Mai works. we wanted to see Mai working because working in the Karaoke doesn't match her and we thought it would be interesting if we go see her. it's such a hard work for a lady like her.when we got in, she was running around. it was good because she could come serve us drink and food. it was a bit sad too coz we could only see her a little. she couldn't even sing with us...but that's ok coz i enjoyed singing J-POP that day and i could see my friends. i missed them because we couldn't see each other much during the winter break. i don't need a winter break...

hi! do u remember that i post about my italian spanish teacher who taught me spanish at yuka's house? she came back to japan!! i went to Kobe port to see her with Yuka and Yusuke! she is working as a volunteer spanish teacher on a ship that goes around the world!! i thought it's amazing! i wanna do such a job like her. she can travel around the world for free! i envy her so much...i was also surprised with the size of the ship. i thought it was as big as Titanic! i don't know how big Titanic was though lol
ne way, i hope she have the nicest trip in the world and it was very nice to see her again♪

yesterday, i went to the Karaoke and had dinner with my friends. i was so guilty that i went late to the Karaoke. but i had fun singing and listening to my friends singing.
after the karaoke, we went to a weird restaurant...
each table of the restaurant is like a prison, and the entrance of it is like a haunted house in an amusement park. while we were eating, when it got to a certain time, an announce to be careful with the zombis were played in the restaurant. i was so scared that i was with my eyes closed all the time lol
then,the siren started to ring, the lights were off and the zombis began to go around the restaurant...since i was scared the most,everytime a zombi came into our cage,he touched my head all the time!!!! i couldn't do nething but to scream lol
i had so much fun but it was so scary!! i wanna go there again but next time i'll sit in a place which is safer...

today i went to a fried food restaurant called Kushiya in Shinsaibashi. there, our friend Karei was working and we wanted to see her. as usual, she was very small and cute lol
we also wanted to go somewhere together because we were tired with CIE classes.
when we started eating, we couldn't stop eating and talking because it was "all u can eat"
when we got up to go get some more food, takuji, as usual, had eaten all of my food...i was so shocked but i made him go get more food for me, so that's ok.
when we were full, we had some ice cream. we were so full then, that we could hardly move. today, i realized how eating is wonderful!!

!!aNoThEr SuRpRiSe PaRtY!!

yesterday, we did a surprise birthday party for our friend Ayumi's birthday. since we couldn't celebrate her birthday in the actual date of her birthday, she was a little disappointed. while actually we were planning the party and even making the messaged t-shirt!!
some of us told her we couldn't go out with her but we were actually waiting for her in the restaurant with a cake. when she came in the restaurant and saw all of us with a cake, she was so surprised that she cried immediately lol
then we had dinner, but since i was in the same table with Takuji and Yuka, i couldn't eat so much because they eat even more than me lol
ne way, i was happy again because it was another successful surprise party♪

☆tHe GoLdEn PaViLlIoN☆

Today I went to Kinkaku ji with my friends. In the morning, since I slept inTakuji's house with Karei and Yuka, we couldn't wake up so we were late to the time we have planned with the other people. by the way, we had so much fun the night before in Takuji's house! Yuka made us a delicious pasta and a beautiful APPLE PIE !!
ne way, we were so sorry that we were late but no one was angry at us. My friends are so kind!!
b4 going to Kinkaku ji, we went to a temple called Kitano Tennmanngu which there is the god of studies. so, we went to pray for our studies success by touching a special cow's monument placed in the temple.
After that, we went to the Kinkaku ji. When i saw it first, i was so impressed!! it was amazing!!! i was especially touched because i've just finished writting a paper for my Japanese Art class on Kinkaku ji. i had so much fun because i could see Kinkakuji with my friends♪after that, we went to eat dinner and shopping around Kyoto. After dinner, on our way back to the station, a miracle happened...we met our friend Masa!! i was so surprised and happy because we were in the same places in the same day!! i felt we all were connected lol
finally,we had to go home. i was a little sad that we had to go home but b4 that i had to go take my bags to takuji's house. On our way to Takuji's house with Karei, i came up with a brilliant idea. i thought that we could stay another night in Takuji's house!! Takuji was happy with that idea, that we decided to stay one more night in his house. we just went to bed because we were very tired, but we enjoyed staying in Takuji's house 2 nights because we felt like we were in the TV show "FRIENDS"

hi! today i wanna talk about the day that i took takuji and yusuke with me to surprise yuka at her work in Nanko. it was yuka's birthday, and yuka thought that only i was going to pick her up at her part time job and go somewhere. i thought it was a bit sad to celebrate her birthday with only myself and i knew that she was going to be happy if i take yusuke and takuji with me. so that i did it and it was successful. yuka looked really happy when she saw us holding a bouquet of roses singing happy birthday to her. i even taught yusuke and takuji how to say happy birthday in italian! (yuka loves italy) so that yuka would even be happier. after that, in spite of yuka's full stomach, we went to a restaurant where i've made a reservation. after dinner,the restaurant give us a birthday cake and sing the birthday song with us. it was a little embarrassing but we all had so much fun♪ after eating, we went to the port and played a kind of model game. we pretended like we were super models and took pictures. it was a stupid thing but i really had fun this day. happy happy birthday yuka!!

♪USJ⇒bIrThDaY pArTy♪

today, i went to Universal Studios Japan with my friends(takuji,yusuke,ayumi,mai,ai,mayuka)it was raining so it was not so crowded. we could go to most of the rides. we liked the Spider-man so much that we went there twice. but, my favourite was the Animal Show. i didn't know there was such an attraction in USJ even being there for the 3rd time. All the animal's did the performance and i thought that sometimes animals can be more intelligent than human lol
while we were enjoying USJ, our other friends(yuka,oba,karei) were preparing for a surprise party in a restaurant in the Universal City walk. i was so excited because we've planned this for a long time. we all made a t-shirt with messages for them. i mean, two of our friends Mayuka and Yusuke was having their birthdays.
when we got in the restaurant, they were surprised because the people who were preparing for the cake were there. they were even more surprised when we showed them the cake and the t-shirt that we had made. i was even happier than them to see them happy!! after we ate dinner we took print clubs and went to the Karaoke all night.
we had so much fun that day♪
happy birthday Mayuka and Yusuke!!!!

hi, whazzup!? im still doin busy in CIE classes...
BUT!! last weekend, i went to many places at night with my friends♪ first, our class mate asumi took us to two nice bars around namba and shinsaibashi.
this is a drink called Baily's shake. it was sooooo nice, that we decided to take a picture. u should try it.

after that, asumi left and we met Ai. then, we went to a club. there, we accidently met Ai's twin sister. it was funny coz it's such a coincidence!! though, we were not satisfied with the music so we went to another club nearby. there, they played songs that i like, so we could dance for a long time♪ i mean, i'm shy so i didn't want to dance but
Yuka made me dance all the time lol
i had fun dancing, though.
since i got tired, and some of our friends left, the rest of us just talked for the rest of the night. (while yusuke slept so well like an angel...lol)
when the morning came, we decided to leave the club and go eat Ra-men. it was a nice place and the ra-men was good. when we said good bye, again, i was very sad...i wanted to stay longer with my friends. i hope i can do the same thing many times until i go to australia...

☆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.

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!!!(/～\)
