Amazing Fair

I had a wonderful experience when I went to The State Fair. Actually, it was second time to go to the fair in the USA because when I was summer program student, I went to the fair in Idaho. However, the Spokane fair was completely different than the Idaho fair because at first when I went to the Spokane fair, it was noon so all of the fair rides closed. The Idaho fair was a little boring. The Spokane fair was bustling and all of the fair rides were open! There are a lot of animals, different kind of  foods and people. It was like a festival. There were many surprising things for me.


Huge pumpkins
At first, when I saw a huge cup of Lemonade. I was really surprised at it. At the same time, I thought it is usual here but it is unusual for Japanese people. Also, other foods at the fair were big. If I don't control my appetite, it would be inevitable for me to gain my weight easily. However, I couldn't stop my appetite. I ate Teriyaki fried rice, clam chowder and ice cream. Those foods were delicious. I want to eat many American foods this semester.

Second, I saw big pumpkins there. I have never seen such big pumpkins. The biggest pumpkin can receive an award. However, those pumpkins are just for show and tell so no one should eat them. It was unexpected for me. American foods and vegetables are always bigger than Japanese ones. It makes me surprised and excited.

Thus, I had surprising and great experiences from I came here. It's third time to come here but I can get new experiences all of the time. Gradually, I would get used to speaking to American people and I feel improvement in my English skills. I am so excited to spend time here for about four month again.

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 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...

My Unbelievable Southwest Trip

I experienced a lot of amazing things for seven days with my absolutely wonderful teachers and friends from October 15-21 and learned a lot of Southwest culture, history, and nature. For example, we went to about 12 museums and facilities, such as the Pueblo Cultural Center, the University of Mexico, and some churches in New Mexico and Arizona. Therefore, I kept busy on the trip, but it became something I have never experienced because everything I saw was new to me. There are three things that especially impressed me. First, I was attracted to the buildings of New Mexico. These were really different from Spokane, Boston, or Washington D.C. For example, I went to Old Town in Albuquerque. Then I noticed that almost all the buildings were made of adobe. Adobe means mud brick in Spanish, so the buildings I saw were brown and some parts were air blue. I felt comfortable there. I also saw a plaza and a church which were adobe style buildings. The plaza is the most central part in Old T...
