It is hard to believe that October is almost over, yet we are still experiencing some surprisingly hot days this year. Usually, this time of the year brings a refreshing autumn breeze and cooler temperatures, but the current weather feels more like an extended summer. In fact, I am quite astonished to see many people walking around in short sleeves, even though the calendar says it is already late October. It creates a strange and confusing atmosphere when the autumn leaves are supposed to fall, but the temperature demands summer clothing. Personally, I have never been a big fan of hot weather because it makes me feel uncomfortable and sluggish. I much prefer the crisp, cool air of late autumn and the cozy feeling of winter. Because of this, I sincerely hope that the temperature drops very soon and the refreshing, cool autumn weather finally arrives to stay.

Hello. Today, I will talk about my week. First, on Saturday, I stayed at my friend’s house. My friend lives in Saitama. My friend made dinner for me. We ate oyakodon. It was so delicious, and I was happy. On Sunday, I was going to go to a phone shop to get a my new phone. But my new phone was not there yet. So, I had no plans that day. On Monday, I went to interview for a new part-time job. I passed the interview, so I was very happy. Yesterday and today, I played with the same friends. Yesterday, we ate monjayaki. Today, we ate malatang. Both were very delicious. I had a very good time with my friends. Tomorrow, I will go to karaoke with my friend. I want to sing a lot. I moved to a new place recently, and I have not started my new part-time job yet. So, I want to have fun with my friends this week and next week. From November, I want to work a lot.

Today, I played in a small futsal tournament with my teammates. I was looking forward to the tournament because I enjoy playing soccer and spending time with my friends. We played several matches and tried our best to win each game. Some matches were difficult, but we worked together and supported each other. I was happy that our team could play well as a group. In the end, we won the tournament and became champions. I was very excited because all our hard work paid off. Winning the tournament made me feel proud of myself and my teammates. I think communication and teamwork were important reasons for our victory. I had a great time playing futsal, and it was a memorable experience. After the tournament, I went out to eat with my friends. We were hungry after playing futsal, so the food tasted especially good. We talked about the matches and enjoyed spending time together. It was nice to celebrate our victory with everyone. I was tired after a long day, but I felt very happy. Today was a great day, and I hope I can play in another tournament with my friends soon.

I have always loved dancing, and even after graduating, I have continued practicing with the dedicated members of my former school club. Currently, we are working extremely hard for an upcoming stage performance in February. My primary dance genres are jazz and contemporary. I was first introduced to contemporary dance when I was a high school student, and it was an extraordinarily challenging experience for me. In our club, we created unique pieces based on complex themes, such as the famous artwork of Hokusai, the life cycle of silkworms, and creative performances using chairs as main props. During practice, I often cried not from physical injury, but from the deep personal struggle and intense frustration of trying to bring such abstract concepts to life through movement. However, I refused to give up and kept pushing forward every day. Overcoming those mental hurdles allowed me to greatly improve my technique and emotional expression, making me truly glad that I persevered.

Today, I am going to a ramen shop near my house with my friend. The shop opened recently, and I have wanted to go there for a long time. I am really excited to try it today. Miso ramen is famous at this shop. I like miso ramen very much, so I think I will enjoy it. I hope the ramen is delicious. I also want to see what the shop looks like inside. After eating ramen, we are going to a coffee shop. I want to drink coffee and eat dessert there. I like desserts at coffee shops. My favorite desserts are chocolate cake and pudding. I am not sure what I will order today, but both sound good. I want to relax and talk with my friend while we enjoy our coffee and dessert. It will be a nice way to spend the evening. Tomorrow, I have my first class at university, so I need to get up early. I do not want to be sleepy in class. I will try to go to bed early tonight. I hope I can have a fun evening and still get enough sleep.

Offer pray to Allah Almighty that makes every better for each one.

I’m currently studying English, and I’d love to improve my speaking skills. I’m looking for a language partner, and I’d be happy to help you learn Mandarin Chinese in return. Would you be interested in doing a language exchange? Thank you!
