Unforgettable Southwest Culture Memories

By


On the Southwest trip, my most favorite experiences are visiting wonderful Acoma Pueblo, the San Miguel chapel, Grand Canyon and eating many great Mexican food and going to these places with my best friends.
          The premium Acoma Pueblo is one of my favorite and memorable places. Before I went to Acoma Pueblo, I was looking forward to going there because the people are wonderful and so is the culture so I wanted to come in touch with a different culture. I wore sunglasses when I went there because the place was very bright and felt as if my body was going to melt because of the heat. My friend said you should take off the sunglasses, so I removed them. As a result, I could see the beautiful scenery and I felt like my existence was an insignificant blip in the world. I’ll never forget Acoma Pueblo’s mystical, magnificent and beautiful view.


          This is one of my favorite view at the lovely Grand Canyon. I have never seen such a colorful, beautiful and magnificent view that I couldn’t express my feeling when I saw that night view. I came into contact with the natural beauty and the power of nature. The dark blue, bright orange and blue sky expanded indefinitely so I thought if I were a bird, I would be able to see more of the beautiful scenery. Therefore, I watched the birds enviously. I was very happy and glad to see the nature and all its loveliness.



          This is the San Miguel chapel that has many incredible, talismanic and miracle stories. There is a beautiful spiral staircase but no one knows who made this staircase. People say the staircase is a miracle, but I couldn’t believe that because people hide the truth. However, in fact, this beautiful spiral staircase is wrapped in mystery architecturally. I can’t say anymore because many people studied this staircase but they couldn’t find the true answer about the miraculous and mysterious spiral staircase. I was very interested in the unsolvable puzzle so I want to go there again and find the correct answer to the mystery.


          This is a wonderful food tortilla which is my first experience to eat the tortilla. It is traditional Mexican dishe. During the Southwest trip, I ate tortilla almost every day because I was crazy about tortillas. I especially liked the tortilla wrap. I ate tortilla so often but I never got tired of eating tortilla. I think tortilla is great food because of the many different main ingredients you can use, and if I put a lot of vegetable in it, tortilla becomes a healthy food and I’ll get full. I love tortilla, but it can be hard to eat. Tortilla can make my hand dirty, but it is a substantial meal, doesn’t get boring, and a wholesome food. Tortilla is a perfect food.
          This picture is the best picture. At first, we didn’t know each other very well but we have a great relationship. Everyone always tries as hard as they can and there is never any problems so I respect my group members. I can get enthusiastic from everyone and I’m stimulated by my group members. Moreover, I always learn something from my group members that I didn’t know. This picture shows my group members’ unity and good friendship so I like this picture.

         I was really happy to go those amazing and terrific beautiful places with my friends, eating delicious Mexican food. I’d like to go to Southwest trip again.

Fabulous Southwest Trip

By
    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

By
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.
