summer & autumn

     At first, I will talk about the summer vacation.

     I spent much time to work part-time. I teach Japanese to the elementary school students. I have to prepare lessons, which was very hard. However, it was not every day that I worked, so it was not so painful.

     I was going to visit Iwate prefecture to meet my grandfather and relatives, but in fact I didn't. It was because one of my relatives had an accident and got serious injured, so my family hesitated to go. It was sad, but I could go to another trip with ICU festival committee members. It was very interesting, so I could have a good time.

     Next, I will talk about my hopes about ARW Autumn.

     To tell the truth, I did not think about ELP before I entered ICU. I did not hope to improve my English skills. Even now I do not hope so strongly.

However, I feel simply happy when I succeed in telling someone what I want to tell in English. On the contrary, I suffer bitter disappointment when I failed to do so. One of the reasons that I failed is because I do not know many vocabularies, so in ARW autumn class, I want to learn many words and practice to use them.

     I do not the strong wish, for example, "I want to work using English in the future!" or " I want to communicate all over the world!", but I want to make efforts to communicate with friends and teachers around me.
