Great Internationa

The WSU trip was really great. I could meet many international students and all of them were so inspirational for me. The most interesting facts about them were the people from many other countries, their English skill, and their dreams.

First, I was surprised to meet many people from different countries. I met Chinese, Saudi Arabians, and Brazilians. I had never had such an opportunity to meet so many foreigners until then! I could talk with them a lot about cultures and English studying. I also exchanged Facebook accounts with a Brazilian girl, a Chinese boy, and a Saudi Arabian boy. I was really happy to become friends with them!

Secondly, I was astonished by their English skill. They spoke English a lot. Of course their English was with their own language’s accents, but still their English was very high. Sometimes, they couldn’t understand my English because my English had a Japanese accent. I felt my English was very poor but it encouraged me to study English harder. I really respect them and I thought that I wanted to be like them.

Finally, I was inspired by their dreams. After I went back to MFWI, I sent a message to a Saudi Arabia boy, and we had a conversation. He said he wanted to become an engineer. To achieve his goal, he wanted to go to WSU and major an engineering, and for it, he was going to IALC (Intensive American Language Center). He has a clear goal of his life and he is on the way to achieve his dream. I think he is really cool. I respect him. I like his approach to his dream, and I was encouraged by him to follow my dream.

Thanks to this WSU trip, I got many new international friends and it encouraged me to study English. I really like the international students and I want to meet them 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 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...
