Impressive Discussion

How pleasant a discussion!! I was moved about guests ' opinions and cheerful activity.

On Tuesday, I had wonderful opportunity to talk with guests who join volunteer activity at conversation class. It was very lively discussion for me. At first, I thought volunteering is not related to problem too much, but I changed my mind. During discussion, the most impressive thing was all of guests 's faces were cheerful!! All of guests talked to us pleasantly about volunteering. Each guests participates various volunteer. All of guests who I asked my questions answered definitely that volunteering have a lot of good point. For example, make new friends, feel good, success business, and so on. One of the guests, Bill talked to us his delightful opinion. I think he has strong mind himself and he love volunteering very much. Talking with them was good opportunity for me.

I found difference points American and Japanese at this discussion. I think volunteer is more common in America than in Japan. I learned that American parents teach their children about volunteering, but Japanese parents don't do that. I think this is the reason that volunteering is more common. I respect American's active participation of volunteering. I think a lot of Japanese think volunteering is troublesome activity. I think Japanese are very shy. These are important different thing.

I want to join some other volunteering activities during this semester because I've never joined volunteering activity. I'll join Spokane river clean up next month. One of the guest was a man who join Spokane river clean up, so I could hear about it. It will be fun and I want to talk with many people. I also join WCFR's volunteer. I searched about it and it is interesting for me.

I could learn about volunteering a lot and I was happy to hear them cheerful opinions.

My Valuable Southwest Trip

Last week, we took a trip to the Southwest for 7 days. This trip was an absolutely wonderful memory. I had never been to these areas so I was stimulated by every things, for example, cactus, adobe style buildings, Native American culture and amazing dessert views. It is one of the most interesting trips I ever took, because I experienced some rare things like visiting Grand Canyon, visiting high school and so on. On this trip I could understand about Indian culture from a folk art museum. I would like to introduce some my best memories on this Southwest trip. My first best memory is Georgia O’Keef museum. Actually, before this trip, I was not familiar with her and didn’t know about any of her artworks, but I was looking forward to visiting here because I like art museums. Her artworks were very unique, abstract and absolutely fabulous, and these were very fresh to me. I especially liked bone’s paintings which one of the most famous her artwork, because the color contrast is very c...

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 ...

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...
