Today, I took my Italian final exam. There were many questions about the past tense, and it was very hard. After the test, I checked my answers with my classmates. I found many mistakes and felt really down. But I also felt happy because the hard part is finally over. Now I can relax. I don’t want to think about the results for a while. I just want to enjoy the feeling of freedom. I did my best, and that’s enough for now.

Do you like outdoor activities? I like it so much! Especially, I love nature watching. When I visited Australia, I went to Simbio Wildlife Park. In there, I feeded to kangaroo and wallaby. They were bigger than my images! I was so surprised about it. I want to go to Australia again!

Today, I realized on my way to the station that I had forgotten my train pass. I had put it in a different bag yesterday and completely forgot to transfer it to my backpack. I rushed back home. I couldn’t catch the train I usually take, but I still managed to make it to class on time. Running in the heat wore me out, and I couldn’t stop sweating.

Today, I went out for dinner with my mom, my older brother, and his girlfriend. Everyone except me seemed nervous, which I found pretty funny. It was a nice time together. I’m feeling a little sad because my mom is going back home tomorrow. Even though it was a short visit, I’m really happy we got to spend time together.

The!!!! Pronunciation in English can be difficult. Especially for certain words. One of the difficult words to pronounce is "The". Top tip! It may sound silly but put your tongue behind your top teeth and try to say something. That is the "Th" sound. Now take the tongue away and keep that sound going: You just said "The" Simple!!! Now say "Make this the day." 🙂

Why is it “while” in “I need to get it done while I still can” but “when” in “You have to be smart when setting your goal”? It seems like “can” and “be smart” don’t describe actions

Recently, I started working part-time at an ice cream shop near my house. It’s my first time working in a place like this. So everything is new to me and very exciting. Yesterday, I practiced scooping ice cream into a round shape. It looked easy when other staff members did it, but when I tried, it was much harder than I expected. The scoops didn’t look perfect, and sometimes I took too little or too much ice cream. I tried again and again until I could make a better shape. When I finally made a nice round scoop, I felt really happy and proud of myself. I realized that even small things need to practice. I also have to learn how to greet customers politely and serve them quickly. There are so many things I have to remember, and I sometimes feel nervous, but my coworkers are really kind and help me a lot. I want to get better right now, so I will do my best. 🍨

I want to teach to every one

Do you know about Kabuki? It is a traditional form of Japanese theater. Yesterday, I watched a Japanese movie called “Kokuhō” (National Treasure), which is about Kabuki. It’s currently a hot topic in Japan, and the film was incredibly powerful and impressive. Although I don’t know much about Kabuki, I could still feel its greatness and the dedication it requires. I was truly overwhelmed by the experience. It’s a masterpiece that represents the aesthetics of Japan, and I hope not only Japanese people but also people from around the world will watch it.
