Takoyaki Party

My friends and I held a party last night. That was Takoyaki Party. Takoyaki is a food made from flour mixed with water and baked. In the middle, there is usually octopus, but yesterday we put cheese into takoyaki. To do so was my first experience, but it was very very yummy. Takoyaki with cheese became one of my favorite food yesterday. If you have never try, I recommend you to do it!
Eating takoyaki, we chatted with each other for a long time, which is about from funny topic to serious one. The party finished at 3:30am and I arrived my flat at 4am, so I am sleepy today. However, I don't regret having patry till late becouse we could have a fun. Having fun with my friends is the most benefit.

Muggy!!

Recently, it is very very very muggy! I hate Japanese humid climate because it is very uncomfortable. when I get sweat, sweat doesn't get to be dry soon, so my skin is always moist. The places I can be confortable is the rooms which air conditioner is turned on.
One of my friend who had studied abroad in America for one year told me that it is not humid, so people dont feel uncomfortable even if they get sweat. I envy the American. If Japanese climate were like American one we could spent Japanese summer comfortably!! I always have a question how international students feel Japanese MUGGY summer.

My favorite song

when i was 17 years old, i met my favorite song. the name of song is "Sunday," which was sung by the English singer groug named "Buster." First of all, i was fascinated by the melody. It made me feel nostalgic. Secondly, i like the leryck. It expresses the young boy's lonely feeling whose girl friend is living in the place far from him. the boy cannot meet his girl friend, but they can see on Sunday because Sunday is holiday. he is looking forward to meeting her during weekdays. his feeling was discribed every day. for example, "Monday, ain't so good. get to wait until i kiss her."

The secret place in Library

Last Friday, Yusuke.H, Hiroyuki and I prepared a presentation for reading II. We searched good place to concentrate on preparation. then yusuke supposed the room for studying which is in 3rd floor of library. there, we could use the room by free and use the airconditioner, so we could study confortably. Did you guys know there were room such a great room in library? In the beginning, we talked about the presentation of which we are in charge, but once we did every day conversation, we could not stop it because it is more fun than discussing the presentation. In fact, our preparation did not advance, but don't worry! we will do our best for presen. If you have something to do with your classmate like presentation, i recomend you to use the room we used. you will be satisfied with it!!!!!

Never give up (・へ・)

Yesterday, i had a exam of studying abroad. So did my friend Ayumi, Daniel and Mai. it was a reading test. The amount of what we had to read was very very long. When i opened the test sheet, I was so surprised because many sentences were got into my eyes. It was longer than that the reading part of TOEFL. Before test, i was so nervous and remember the entrance exam of this university. Finally i managed to finish the test, but i am not sure that i did my perfect. After the test, however, i talked with my classmates about the test and revealed that i had a mistake. I was so shocked, but i never give up because I have another test today, the listening test. I will DO MY BEST!!! Cheer me!!!

I LOVE FOOD!

last night i ate out with my senior clubmates. we wenta Horoyoi near Makino station. That was so nice because the price is cheap and the amount is much. it's my ideal. Additionally, owner gave us ice cream and sweets by free, so i was happy. i wenta there for the first time and i wanna go there again and again. Let's go together if you want.
In fact, I really like to eat something. i don't know the limit about eating. The other day, i went to the buffe in Umeda. i ate a lot, pasta, curry, cake, icecream, pudding and so on. My trouser was close to explosion because of eating too much. Now i am planning to go to another buffe with my friends. i'm looking foward to it!!!!!
