Journal #3 I'm into watching baseball games from last year. There is a pro-baseball team in my hometown, which was founded recently. I naturally cheer for my home team. In this year's league, my team is now in second place. I always watch baseball games broadcast on TV and check the news. Today was same as usual. I was watching today's game, and my team's starting pitcher lost 3 points during the first inning. I was really pissed off, so immediately quit watching the game. However, few hours later, my brother said "Hey! The bases are loaded with one out!" I rushed to my room and stood in front of the TV. The next hitter was up to bat. And he hit a grand slam! My team turned the game, so I shouted for joy. My team was winning by a score of 6 to 5. But that excitement was only short lived and I started to be nervous. Because we were ahead of only one point. Fortunately, other hitters got more points during the following innings, so finally my team won the game. It was such a thrilling game.

Journal #2 I take a driver training course these days due to driver's license test. This afternoon, I drove on the street for the first time. I got nervous so I made lots of mistakes. When I turned left or right, I couldn't keep the lanes. Also I couldn't stay center in the lane. I kept moving the steering wheel. In addition, there were many large trucks which blocked my view. Sometimes I couldn't even see the traffic lights. After finishing the class, my driving instructor asked me how I had felt while driving. I answered I was so afraid of traffic accidents. Then she laughed and said "Well, didn't you enjoy the speed? If you were afraid of it, you wouldn't pressed that hard on the accelerator." Oh my gosh. I didn't even notice about the speed. Now I'm worried to death of the driving test. Could I pass the test? I definitely need more practices. I'm going to take more courses tomorrow, and It'll be 3 hours driving; keeping my fingers crossed.

Journal #1 I joined italki the day before yesterday. The first day of italki, no one send me a message. It makes me little disappointed. But this morning, I figured out why people didn't send me any messages. That's because I didn't write down my profile. After I post my profile picture and note, people started to send me messages. Wow, finally people start to recognized me! Actually I'm still not used to using this site, so It takes long time to reply others messages. Sometimes I don't even notice I got messages or not. I'm going to search for italki android app. If it's more convenient than a website, I'll definitely use app. I hope I would improve my language skills here, and made lots of new friends as well.

About hobby I like taking pictures the most; it’s the best way to relieve stress. I also love traveling. So when I go on a trip, I always bring my camera to shoot landscapes.
