Inconceivable shopping

I have many hobbies such as listening to music, going to movie, talking with my friends, especially going shopping. I often go shopping in Japan, actually I'm enjoying going shopping in America. I have experienced unbelievable shopping.

First, the size is huge in the stores. When I went to Walmart for the first time, I was surprised that the shopping cart is twice the size of one in Japan. I thought I could get on the cart. I couldn't move it very well. I also noticed that we put goods in a shopping cart directly in America, but Japanese often use a shopping basket. We put our shopping basket in our shopping cart, and then we put goods in our shopping basket or we use our shopping basket only. Of course, I was surprised size of food, too. I'm sure that I can't see such big size in Japan. I have never seen such big milk, yogurt, pizza, snacks and so on in Japan. I can share these big food with my roommate, and we can use a shopping cart together.

useful Walmart and delightful Valley Mall
Second, I can't believe that merchandise is sometimes broken. When I went to a clothes shop, I found a ring that I wanted to buy. I took it in my hand, but it was broken. There was not enough accessories on the ring. They had come off the ring. I tried to find another one, but I couldn't find one. I thought it couldn't be helped, but when I went to the different shop. I experienced the same things again. I found a pair of sandals, but the mate had no button. I could not wear it. If a broken part is small, I can understand, however these broken things had big faults. In Japan, it doesn't happen.

Finally, I often see joyful signs. For example, I see "Buy one, Get one Free." It's a good sale. I can sense it's profitable. In Japan, a sale isn't held many times. I want this system in Japan, but I have to be careful about this sign, or I will buy many goods even if they are not a necessity.

I experience many incredible things when shopping in Spokane. They sometimes confuse me, but I can enjoy them. I want to go shopping more and experience a lot of new things here.

Neccesary Shopping

I can do amazing shopping in the U.S. I don’t actually go shopping so often in Japan because I don’t want to spend money. However, I can’t help buying things here. One of the reasons I love the U.S. is shopping. I am so excited to go shopping here more than in Japan. A shopping in America is fantastic for three reasons. My Favorite Clothes of Holister First of all, there are many kinds of shops in Spokane. That means I have many choices to buy something. In Japan, I can’t buy easily things I want because Japan doesn’t have my favorite shops. In addition, I have to pay more in Japan than in America. If someone asks me my recommendation in America, I’d introduce incredible shops, such as Hollister , Bath and Body , Victoria’s Secret , and American Eagle , and Yankee. These shops are highly famous in the U.S, and I can't buy products of Hollister and Bath and body and Victoria’s Secret in Japan except online shopping. The other thing, I can visit other shops in Japan, but I’m s...

My Tremendous Portland Trip

     Have you ever been to Portland? I could learn a lot of things in Portland. I like Portland so much. Especially, I enjoyed Portland English Language Academy, McLoughlin House and Powell's City of Books.      First, Portland English Language Academy was an enjoyable place for me. Before I entered the class, I was really nervous, because I can't keep talking with people whom I meet for the first time. However, this time was totally different. I had an activity of conversation to talk with every student. It made me comfortable. After that activity, I had a conversation about students' research such as selfie and future jobs. It was really interesting for me because I could hear various opinions about that. Then, the teacher recommended international students to talk about three favorite places in Portland. I learned more about Portland. Those activities were really helpful for me to talk with international students.   ...

My Precious Experience

 The Awesome View at the Fair I have been having a good time since I came here. The teachers, RAs and staff at MFWI welcomed us warmly, so I was very happy and I am also happy now. My life at MFWI is little different from the last semester, but I'm really enjoying this life. Anyway, we went to  the Spokane Interstate Fair  on Tuesday, and I had wonderful experiences that I had never experienced before.  The food was very appetizing. First, I was very hungry when we arrived there, so I ate a funnel cake, a big piece of chicken and some pizza. I had never eaten such a big cake and a piece of chicken, so I was excited and happy to eat them. They were very tasty, so I wanted to eat more food. Then, I noticed that a difference between America and Japan. Japanese festivals or fairs also have many branch stores and the food they serve...
