Fly to The Sky

I CANNOT BREATH!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Those were my first word when I rode a roller coaster at the Spokane County Interest Fair on Wednesday. It was a fantastic amusement park. Have you ever been there? However, there were not only curious attractions but also food a court which had so many kinds of foods, such as Italian, Iranian, Mexican, Chinese, German, Russian and, of course American. At first, I did not have any eagerness to go. Moreover, I was worried about getting my homework done. Nevertheless, my feeling was gradually changing on the way to the fair in the van. My friends and I just start singing without thinking like Karaoke, and we enjoyed singing the whole time until we arrived at the amusement park. It took more than a 30 minutes drive to get there, but time went fast. When we arrived near the amusement park, my eyes caught the Ferris wheel! Then, my feelings were going up. I stood up soon from the seat when our van arrived there. We had enough time, 2 hours to experience with many attractions, but it felt too short. At first, my friend, Yuki and I chose the ride which looked the scariest. It seemed be a small Ferris wheel. We were immediately in line, then after we gave the attendant our 5 tickets, we got on it. At the beginning of the moving, it just rotated like a Ferris wheel, but about half way, our vehicle also started to move with unusual high speed. I can't help laughing to hide my fright. I screamed the words with no meaning the whole time I was riding it. When the peak came, I screamed phrases like "I CANNOT BREATH!!" with high tension.

After finising riding it, our power was increased. This was why; we went to the food court to satisfied with our power. To tell you the truth, we ate too much. We had a Spiral potato, a piece of pizza, Giant curling potatoes, a raspberry ice cream, a piroshky, and an Elephant ear. I had the Elephant ear for the first time. It seemed like a pizza but it was thinner than pizza. The Elephant ear was the same as real elephant's ear and it was topped with cinnamon. My RA, Becki taught me that I MUST eat it, so I was looking forward to having it. It was quit delicious and it look strange because I have never seen such kind of snack in Japan. As you can see, I really enjoy having fun with attractions and rides which made me crazy and eat many delicious foods which were from many countries. Today, I had a wonderful time, and also spent much money! I am going to rest well with my lonely purse tonight.

Unforgettable Southwest Trip

I went on a totally amazing Southwest trip with my classmates. The trip was my first time to go to the Southwest so everything was new to me. Sarah, Anikke and Bethany came with us. They made our trip more exciting. I’m happy I could go on this trip with them and I had a lot of great experiences. First, I really enjoyed New Mexico. It was chilly but not too cold. I went to the Old Town in  Albuquerque, New Mexico. I liked the Old Town because there are many cute things and good restaurants in there. For example, I found a gate that was decorated with a lot of red chili peppers. I had never seen anything like that before so I was very surprised and it looked like a lot of flowers from a distance. The red chili peppers were absolutely gorgeous. Not only that, I found a great restaurant. I forgot the name of the restaurant but they have really delicious Mexican food. They gave me some Mexican chips for free and recommended that I eat the chips with honey. I really like Mexican ...

Fabulous Southwest Trip

    The Southwest trip was absolutely amazing because I leaned the culture of the area a lot. I spent 7 days in the southwest and I impressed by people who live there and by their culture. These things were totally different from Japan and the people there preserved their traditions carefully. I talk to a lot of Americans and I saw wonderful nature during the trip. There are three absolutely wonderfu and amazing places that I enjoyed.     First, I went to a lot of museums and all of them were very interesting. I especially liked The Museum of International Folk Art. The museum has more than 130,000 objects from more than 100 countries! My favorite object was a smiling skeleton doll. This object’s theme was Day of The Dead. When I saw it, I remembered COCO which is a Pixar movie. I also liked The Georgia O’Keeffe Museum. Georgia O’Keeffe was an American artist and she painted a lot of flowers and nature. I think her paintings are brimming with kindness ...

Completely amazing trip

I had a good time visiting the Southwest USA with Extension students from 15 to 21, October. It was an education trip and I experienced new things and there was a lot of nature which is comfortable for me. I was looking forward to going on the Southwest trip for a long time. I have image that the Southwest is very hot but this place was cold than Spokane. It was interesting that the temperature was totally different in the same place. There were three emotions that I experienced on this trip. First, I was moved by the beautiful landscape of the Grand Canyon. It is absolutely enormous. When I look down the cliff, I remembered the teacher's caution for us that there are lots of people who die and I scared. I and my roommate wanted to see the sunrise so we tried to got up at 4:00 a.m. and then we could see the sunrise which was really fabulous. After that, we decided to rent a  bicycle but we changed our mind and because we had lots of time. Surprisingly, we walked 10 miles aro...
