I bought a collaboration T-shirt of my favorite manga today! I’m not usually the type to read a lot of manga, but my mom recommended it to me, so I gave it a try—and it turned out to be really interesting! That manga artist’s work is my absolute favorite. Both the art and the story are super cute and totally my style.

I bought a CD on Tuesday. It’s a full album. The artist is TOMORROW X TOGETHER. I love this group. Since I was a junior high school student, I have loved them. They are Korean idol. But they come Japan many times. My favorite member had visited the place where my home town’s tourists spot. I was very surprised it. Because my home town is so countryside. I like my home town, but it’s not famous place. When I heard the news, I felt happiness. I want to stay in the same Inn. I will go to their concert in November and December. It is winter, so it will be cold. But I like to wear clothing when it’s cold days. It looks pretty. And I think winter is better than summer. I don’t spend by hot weather. I hate hot weather! I’m very looking forward to snow, hot snacks, and Christmas.

I had a test in first period today. It ended earlier than expected, so I stopped by the department store and bought an Échiré pie on my way home. They’re usually sold out or have a long line, so I was really happy to get one! It felt like a sweet reward after the morning.

Hello. Today is Wednesday. Therefore, there are no classes today. I plan to write a report and study for a test from now on. There will be a test in tomorrow's class, so I have to work hard today. I want to work hard without playing games this week. I am so sad, but I can do it. See you tomorrow.

In Japan, it has been believed since ancient times that spirits reside in all things in the universe, and that there is one and only God who does not judge humans; rather, it was believed that spirits reside in everything such as mountains, seas, rivers, animals, plants, even objects such as toilets and protect people.

A few days ago, I went to fortune-telling for the first time in my life with my friend. I did not trust it when I saw it on TV. However, when I actually went there, it was amazing that most of them were right. After that, we drank milk tea. It was a very delicious and good day.
