Today, it was cloudy and chilly. I just spent the whole day inside home. In this winter it's about seventh or eight times cloudy whether, but today it was really cold.

It was overcast today. After a few transfers, we finally arrived in Hong Kong. My dad's friend warmly welcomed us and treated us—it's truly wonderful to have friends everywhere. Once we were settled at the hotel, we had dinner at a restaurant with a history spanning over 100 years. They served a large puff pastry that I had never seen before. I appreciate this place, except for the traffic. Notably, my dad brought along my diary so that I could jot down these experiences here at the hotel—how thoughtful of him!

Many things happened in Japan right after the New Year. Earthquakes are not so rare in Japan, but I was unfamiliar with the seismic intensity of 7 and trembled when I realized that they were much larger than The 2011 off the Pacific coast of Tohoku Earthquake. However, despite the fact that many people have been condemned and others are dead or still waiting for help, social networking services are full of people who seek to blow up with false information to raise their profile and make money easily. When I saw it, I doubted whether they really had a human heart. If you receive all the information you touch in between, you will be misinformed and make a wrong decision.So I thought it was necessary to look at things objectively from various perspectives. While many Japanese criticized the plane crash, foreign media praised the rescue of all passengers and crew. Just by changing your point of view, things look completely different. It is very difficult to judge what is right and wrong, but I think that believing only one piece of information and not taking in other information will undermine human morality. Therefore, I want to incorporate information from various perspectives.

I returned to my hometown at the end of the year. On the day I returned, my family came to pick me up from the station, and after that we went out to eat Yakiniku. The next day, I went shopping at the supermarket and made my father's birthday cake and Christmas cake. One is rare cheesecake and the other is black tea chiffon cake. I processed the chiffon cake and made it into a zucotto cake. I'm glad that the whole family liked it. A few days later, my mother and I went to see a movie called "SPY×FAMILY CODE: White'' at night. She especially loves a girl named Anya, and she has some Anya goods. And sure enough, she bought a sheet protector for the movie this time too. I also like Anya and was comforted by her. The next day, I went to my mother and grandmother's house and helped them make rice cakes. I've been doing this since I was in elementary school, and this was my first time in a while. It was fun spending time talking with my grandfather, grandmother, mother, and myself while making them. However, I was shocked to find that I had gained several kilograms due to overeating.

Today, I went a walk and shopping with my family. I went a walk nearby park to shopping bills. It was good weather to walk. When I walk to the park, I saw some people with dogs. I thought it was good to walk with dogs at that time. I like to walk and see nature around. Usually, I can’t have the time to walk because of my school schedule. In the holidays, I like to walk and feel outside if I don’t have anything to do. I like to walk during the traveling. When I went to Kyoto, I walk through path of philosophy. It took about an hour and I enjoyed. There were a small river on the left side and the path on the right side. I could see some cafes and seasonal greens. Some cafes were closed because of New Year holidays. I saw some camellia which was red, pink and white. I could feel the winter season from the flowers. After I went a walk, I ate a lunch. It was fried fish set meal. It contains fried fish, salad, miso soup, rice, pickled radish and Kinpira Gobo. I like to eat Japanese food set meal so I often go to eat the restaurant.

Happy new year! What are your goals for 2024? I have three goals .The first is "Do what I have to do right away." From detailed tasks such as housework to major tasks at university and work, I am conscious of doing everything right away. The second is, " accomplish what I decide to do." I can continue it for the first few days, but gradually I feel less motivated and quit halfway through. By doing so, I have regretted and reflected on myself. I think it will lead to my confidence by going through what I have decided. The third is "growing up every day.” I will do my best to study, work, and improve myself. I am going to go study abroad in Amelia in the summer, so I will study English for that. And since I recently started a new part-time job at a hotel, I will review it every time so that my work goes smoothly. Since there are many foreign guests at the hotel, the service is a good opportunity to practice English. In self-polishing, I will do my best to walk every day, work out, eat healthy food, and live positively. I want to grow up as a person with these three goals in mind.

Happy New Year! How did you spend your winter vacation? I had a very bad start to the year. I caught a cold. I never expected to catch a cold for the first time in the new year. I also had a fever, which made me feel very sick. Furthermore, since I had planned to start working on the assignments during winter break until the new year, I was very anxious to finish them at the last minute. However, there were also good things. That's because I drew Daikichi from my fortune. On January 3rd, I went to Kawasaki-daishi with my friends for a New Year's visit. It was my first time going to a large shrine for New Year's visit, and I was very excited. At Kawasaki-daishi , there were a lot of food stalls lined up, and it was fun just looking at them. We had the potato butter, tacos, and chicken skin. I also wanted to eat salt-grilled sweetfish and cotton candy, but I was too full to eat them. We promise we will eat them at summer festival in this year. This year we have to find a job. I don't want to become a member of society, but I want to earn money, so I want to do my best in job hunting.

I had a really good time. I’ll do my best from tomorrow.

Hello! Today, I wrote about are online games beneficial to our society. I don't believe that online games are beneficial to our society because online games have some disadvantages. First, online gaming can led to addiction. Actually, I like playing online game and I often waste it long time. Moreover, sometimes I can't stop playing it even if something has to be done. This is my case, but some online gamers put all their efforts into the game, and they tend to stay home to get the time for it. As this circumstance counties, it would be effected to their health problems. Now, I'm going to talk about story of a professional online gamer. One day, he was playing online game with his fellows during streaming on the internet. He had a stoic personality and seemed to have been practicing for a long time. Suddenly, he fainted and he couldn't wake up for few minutes. Fortunately, he was alive,but I thought online gaming led to diseases.Second, I think playing online games makes your personality more violent because of Anonymity. In Japan, there have been times when problems have arisen due to extremist comments made during games.Therefore, I don't believe that online gaming are beneficial to society. However, if we play it correctly, we get a lot of good thing to online game.Thank you for reading my essey!
