In September and October, I'm going to have a lot of dance practices for my university festival in October. I decided to take part in three dance genres, so I will be very busy. Among them, house dance is the most difficult for me. It has a lot of fast footwork, and sometimes I feel very tired, but I want to do my best. The dance I like the most is emotional dance style. I'm going to try this kind of dance for the first time, but there is one of my closest seniors in the same team. The practice is really fun and gives me motivation.

Six months ago, the yakiniku restaurant where I worked part-time closed down. But yesterday, it reopened with a new style. I started working there when I was a first-year high school student, so I feel very happy. I went to work yesterday, but many menu items changed during the six months, so I was confused. Today, I will go to work again. I want to do better than yesterday and use what | learned. I hope customers enjoy delicious yakiniku. I will try my best to give good service and help them have a nice time. Working at this restaurant is important to me, and I want to grow more. I feel a little nervous, but also excited. I will smile and work hard today.

Touch base daily, weekly and monthly on specific tasks. You can begin by assigning small actionable steps in order to give employees a sense of achievement. Then, they will feel more engaged to the whole project.

I went to Busan from September 18th to 21st. I went to there with my friend and my Korean teacher. We went to many historical and political places. For example, Japanese Consulate, and Gyeongju. By the way, about the foods. I’ve always wanted to eat Kyochon Chicken’s “Honeycomb chicken”. Finally, I was able to eat it! I love the taste and texture. I ate Samgyeopsal, Chapagetti, and Tangsuyuk too. Every Korean foods were so great. But I felt I’m Japanese by nature. I love sushi, miso soups, tempura, and so on. I’m interested in many foreign countries, but I will come back Japan in the end.

It was a first time to there so I was so looking forward to go before trip started. Plans that I planed were going to JUNGLIA which is a theme park build recently, swimming at a hotel's pool and beach and going Kokusai Street. I enjoyed all plans. However, my flight was canceled when I went back to home. So I was able to stay longer than I planned because I had to stay for an additional 2 nights. It was a nice summer vacation for me!!

Sometimes I feel like I make very slow progress in learning English. Then I find out so many people are just like me and they keep trying and learn harder with some better methods. So I do the same and have more hope but after that I feel frustrated and know that because I am not hard working enough and the circle repeats again. I know I never give up but today I am feeling low again.
