Delightful Extension Party

I had wonderful party at last Wednesday with Extension students and teachers. I was looking forward to meeting my teachers from in that morning. When I met teachers, I was not only happy but also excited, because I had not kept in touch with them during the summer vacation. I missed all of teachers at MFWI. In fact, I was very nervous about can I keep up classes, but my motivation became higher than before after Extension wonderful party.

We enjoyed making Mexican food, called tacos . My job was cutting onion to cook it. I hardly cooked, so it was rare experience for me, but it was fun. I've eaten Tacos before, and I like tacos very much. When I went to homestay at spring semester. My host mother made tacos for me and it was very delicious! She likes cooking and eating tacos, so she sometimes make it for dinner. I think tacos is not common in Japan, so I enjoyed eating it at the party. I was surprised that ingredient which made of To-fu is one of the ingredient of tacos. I tried it and it was fabulous taste. We also tried Mexican juice. There tastes were good. I thought that eating food is one of the good opportunity to learn culture in this country.

We enjoyed not only eating, but also dance and game. Dance was very fun and Ron's dance was very interesting, so I couldn't stop laughing during we were dancing. Game was also fun and I got chocolate! I talked that let's do this game with group member.
I enjoyed talking and spending wonderful time with my teachers.

Fabulous Southwest Trip

    The Southwest trip was absolutely amazing because I leaned the culture of the area a lot. I spent 7 days in the southwest and I impressed by people who live there and by their culture. These things were totally different from Japan and the people there preserved their traditions carefully. I talk to a lot of Americans and I saw wonderful nature during the trip. There are three absolutely wonderfu and amazing places that I enjoyed.     First, I went to a lot of museums and all of them were very interesting. I especially liked The Museum of International Folk Art. The museum has more than 130,000 objects from more than 100 countries! My favorite object was a smiling skeleton doll. This object’s theme was Day of The Dead. When I saw it, I remembered COCO which is a Pixar movie. I also liked The Georgia O’Keeffe Museum. Georgia O’Keeffe was an American artist and she painted a lot of flowers and nature. I think her paintings are brimming with kindness ...

Respectable Voice of The Japanese American

Respectable Voice of The Japanese American Chisato Fujii             When I saw this poem, I felt strong feeling of this poet like “I am an American,” and I also felt this poet’s voice like “Why am I not treated as an American?” I’ve never lived in this period of world war Ⅱ , and of course, I’ve never experienced this suffering and war, but I could feel people’s voice of this period thanks to this poet. Without these Japanese Americans’ voices, I couldn’t feel and understand their feeling and thought. When I understand this poem’s meaning, this poem made me sad, but I also understood Japanese Americans were proud of themselves in the middle of the war. I respect them and am proud.  

Memorable Southwest Trip

I had an absolutely amazing time through on the southwest trip with fabulous teachers and friends for one week.  I went to so many special places such as the Grand Canyon. I really wanted to go there and I was able to have a various experiences at the Grand Canyon. In addition, I ate a ton of southwest food and spicy food during this trip. This trip was most memorable for me for three reason for that. Amazing Grand Canyon First, I had many most amazing memories at the Grand Canyon. I really wanted to go to  the Grand Canyon, so my dreams came true. We went to the Mather point at first. That was my first time to see the Grand Canyon. I was really surprised and impressed. It was like a picture, so I was really confused when I was saw that. Then I went to the next point to see the sunset. The sunset was absolutely gorgeous. I was really impressed. The next day, I woke up early. I went to Yaki point to see the sunrise with teachers. That day was really cold and windy, so whe...
