This semester, I can take part in many events and go to many places. These are precious associations for me. I want to take advantage of every opportunity I can get. Whenever I take part in something or go somewhere, I have strong feeling. There are three things which have been very memorable so far.
First, going to an American Buddhism temple excited me. I went to a temple in Spokane, because of my presentation topic. I noticed many things and talked to some peoples at the temple. This temple was very different than temple in Japan, because when I saw the temple at first, I think it was a house. Also I listened to a sermon It was a little strange like a sutra. It was amazing for me. Then I talked with some peoples, I heard many story which were attracted to me. The opportunity was amusing for me.
Second, visiting WSU delighted me. I made friends there. These students study English like us, so they and I are almost as the same revel. We communicated in only English, because I can't speak and listen to Chinese, Korean and Arabic. However, we communicated well in English. It was awesome. I feel like studying more because I would like to talk more fluently with them again in the future.
Last, running SIDS run pleased me. When I run with Riko, a girl stopped to see us and spoke to us. She is curious about Japanese, so she talked a lot to us. She was so funny and talkative. Then she often said to us we are friends, it made me comfortable. In addition, I could learn about the SIDS run and its purpose. I am studying about American volunteerism, and I am excited when I participate in some community volunteer events.
This semester, extension students can participate as volunteers and different events. I can learn more about America and relationships and get a good encouragement. It's important and attractive for me. All of these things are precious for me.
