Fun!Fun!!Fun!!!

I got it! I understood how to upload images!!

The past a couple of days, it was really fun!

On Saturday, I went to a festival and saw portable shrines. I didn’t carry them because my friend couldn’t come this year because of her business. I wanted to carry them~... But I will next year!!



On Sunday, I went to BBQ with my classmate of my high school days, however, two people of the member were bad condition because one had a hangover and another was lack of sleep ^-^; In spite of that, thank you for coming~! I want to see you all again soon!!

And today, I went to my grandma’s house to give souvenirs. I talked with her, my uncle, and my cousins! It was really fun. So I earnestly burst into laughter because my grandma always says waggish things ^0^ She brought up me from I was born to my kindergarten admission because both of my parents work. I love grandma~~!!!!

I'm home ^o^

I came back to Japan, at 3 p.m. Japan time yesterday. I could nothing because I was tired, so all I could do was to take a bath and sleep ^-^; I’m going take action lively from tomorrow. There is a festival near my house tomorrow; I’m going to carry a portable shrine with my childhood friend. It looks fun, right??

Looking back upon my tour, I learned a lot of things. First, I could brush up my English skill, especially speaking because I had many chances to speak English and teachers and mentors taught me many phrases. Second, I could see a lot of things which I wanted to see, for example, The white House, Lincoln Memorial, etc.
Of course, American restaurants and chatting with all members were really fun,too ^-^♪ Third, it was most important for me, I could rediscovery good and bad points of Japanese culture as I went to America because it is difficult for us to understand own country’s culture while being own country, right? So, I want to say is the tour gave me opportunities to think over about many things. Anyway, I cannot talk about everything, so we have to meet up again ^o^!! I’m going to keep in touch with you with this blog and facebook, too!
Maybe I ask how to use fasebook…

Thank you for all of you who take care of us!!

That't the D.C.!!

I went to some neighborhoods yesterday, for example, African-American and Hispanic. The atmosphere was really different from Maryland. I saw many interesting things there, especially Hispanic neighborhood, for instance, a Hispanic supermarket and a Latin music store. It made me happy because the atmosphere was active!! I like it as much as Maryland.

Next was the best place that I could feel “I came to Washington. D.C.” (too late??) It was The White House!! I could not come near to it; however, it was really excited. I wanted to meet Mr. Bush if I could. Anyway, I was satisfied to visit it! Sad to say, my study tour is drawing to a close. I made a lot of memory in Maryland and Washington.D.C. , so I want to come here again!!

And then I want to say thank you to ...

Dennis: You are really my grandpa!! I love your gentle comments. Thank you so much!

The University of Maryland University College

I went to the University of Maryland University College yesterday. I saw a lot of art, especially, Japanese and Chinese art were good. I felt that it is difficult to explain my own culture to another person, so I thought that I should study my culture if I go to abroad. Also, I was happy because I found international people are interested in Japanese culture.

Happy Weekend!

Happy Weekend!

This weekend was really really fun! On Friday, I took part in Nina’s party. I could talk with many people there, for instance, Nina’s husband, Vicki, and their friends. Also, dinner was good. After that, I went to karaoke! I enjoyed myself because I could not have been to karaoke long time, hahaha! On Saturday, I went to Annapolis. This town has the sea, the landscape (seascape??) was so beautiful. It became my favorite place. On Sunday, I could spent full time, in other words, it was sightseeing day! I went to the National Museum of the American Indian, the National Museum of Natural History, Lincoln Memorial, and Vietnam Memorial. It was good experience to go such artistic or historical place. Anyway, weekend was great, and I love weekends, hahaha (^-^)/

Great Tour!

I went to the Inter-American Development Bank and the National Portrait Gallery yesterday. In IDB, I could listen to very interesting topics; however, it was difficult for me just a little. Also, Japanese work there. It’s really wonderful!!
The National Portrait Gallery was really fun, too!! I forgot about the time because I love art very much. However, I had just a little time to enjoy portraits and I want to go there again!!

Supermarket in America

I went to an American supermarket yesterday. I bought food and souvenirs for my friends! But everything was so BIG comparing with a Japanese one!! Anyway, it became my one of my favorite places in America and I really enjoyed myself there.

Happy Weekend

Saturday…

We went to Alexandria and George Town. In Alexandria, I met Pro. Marie. I took so many pictures there. The most interesting thing was to go to Art Museum. Sophia took me everywhere, so I could eat yummy lunch at Steve’s Bar and buy so cute ring at Irish Festival.

Arrived in Maryland!!

Finally,I arrived in Maryland yesterday, 2, Aug!!
However, I'm tired just a litttle because of jet lag.

I met all menbers of AGU , mentors(Laura, Sophia, Ji-Won), and teachers(Evanoff,Nina, Shirley).
I am shy a little to talk to menbers yet....

I din't know about my condition, I am so exited now.
I want to make this tour good experience!!
