Everyday is eciting!!

Hello! I am sorry to late upload. I am busy but enjoy everyday.

I always wake up at around 8 o'clock and study English for 30min and am at a labolatory from 9am to 6pm. After that I hang out with my friends or study chemistry. I have two classes. It's sososo hard lol. A teacher teach us in English, the textbook is written in English and there are many homework(-_-) I have to study everyday until midnight every day. But it's so fun. I love this life and excited. I tried many something like I can learn English and  I am getting used to hearing English and speaking. I want to improve more and talk with a lot of people easily.

first of all, I went to CJC (cal japan club) which many Japanese people lived in the U.S. and Americans are interested in Japan get together. it held welcome party.That is super fun. 

my friends Andre and Ananya held soba party few days ago. I have not eaten this ina long time so It was so nostalgic!

Good night. .

My friends, Andre and Ananya

I wanna say that sentence a couple of minutes ago

"Will CJC prevent people from drinking?"

そろそろ実験が始まります。

久々のブログ！最近忙しすぎて全然あげれませんでした(-_-)　

色々起こったこと書いていきます～

水曜は日本語を勉強しているAndreとlunhuage exchengeして、その後TEDtalk見てそれについて話し合いました。

半分くらい何いってるかわからなくて会話に参加する事が出来なかったので次は頑張る！

木曜はYMCAというインターナショナルの人が集まってpartyをしました。めちゃくちゃみんなやさしくて楽しかった(^^)/

この後はCJCというcal japanese clubに行き、バークレーにいる日本人とたくさんしゃべりました！面白い人しかいなくて、日本みたいだったけど楽しかった～

YWCA

金曜は友達とOaklandのpartyに行きました。始めてダンスバトルとかしてるの見た笑

マリファナとかの匂いもしてアメリカを感じましたね笑

帰ってきてからも友達と飲んで、人間どこでも悩むことだったり人間観関係とかは似てるんだな～って感じた。。

Oakland

土曜はYWCAのプログラムでstanford大学に遊びに行きました！

めちゃくちゃきれい！もう大学から賢い雰囲気がやばかった笑

stanford uniersity

Today I felt depressed because I couldn't talk them a lot. I wonder it because I drank yesterday until 4am and I was so sleepy then but I was not energetic (-_-) I am going to go to bed and I wanna get it. I need to move on. 

I really enjoy everday, but I am used to living here. I have to have fresh feelig like when I arrived in the U.S.  seeya~

I had a picnic!

I had a Picnic!

I went to picnic yesterday. There were many people from any countries.  I was talking and having lunch with them. It was really great time for me.  I realize I feel good when I talk with American speaker. There are many Chainese people and I have a lot of chance to talk with Chinese. They speak English very well but native speaker's English is better than their English. I want to make American friends~

After that we went to Yogurt Park. It has log histry for frozen yogurt. I ordered chocolate and vanilla flavor in a small size but it was too much. I can't eat up. If you come, you should order mini size.

Yogurt Park

I talked with American borned Japanese last night. I meet up by using apps of Hellotalk. I went out for having dinner from 11pm. I have talked to him in English for two hours. I enjoyed and spended great time. I got confidence to speak English. 

Seeya~

I can't post pictures over two(-_-). Does anyone know this problem?

I walked around university

大学の周りをたくさん散歩したり、色々な行事に参加しました～

まじで最高ですよね。

Hellotalkで知り合った日本語が話せる学生に色々連れて行ってもらったり案内してもらってめちゃくちゃ充実してきました。英語も学べて最高です。

夜とかは色々イベント調べて積極的に参加しました。でもネイティブはやばいっす

色々刺激受けて楽しかった～

そういえばカリフォルニアロール食べてきました！

普通においしかったです！カニの身ときゅうりとかが入ってて、日本の巻物とそんなにかわらない感じでしたね。ただ醤油じゃなくて甘ダレがかかってました。

研究室が始まるまですることなく、自分ですること探さないといけないからなかなか大変です(-_-)

それでは～

I want to make a friend who help me learn English so I registered something that match me to volunteer who want to teach English. Then I noticed that if I use Hellotalk, I can find students who can speak Japanese. I was looking for in the apps and send messeges for some people. And then I could meet up a girl. She can speak Japanese and take me some good place. Additioally, she took contact a friend who learn japanese and tell me his information. I am gonna meet up him next week on Wendnesday so I am very happy. Today When I met up her and talked, I noticed that I should repeat what she said. Since it is rude I can use to close friends. After repeating, I can decrease my misunderstandings and learn English rhythm and pronunciation. 

I am so sleepy because I went top of the hill. It's so hard and hot but I saw beautiful views! I can see SFO from Berkeley. I heard it is always sunny in Berkeley but SFO has carl and fog. If you are going to SFO, be careful about weather.

I will try evrything

I was surprised when I was coming into my room because my roommates are only Chinese and Japanese. Actually I want to live with foreigner to study English. But now, I don’t care about it. I can’t do anything if I want to change the room and I have to feel positive. I don’t have any class and My lab haven’t start yet. I don’t have community except my roommate so I felt nervous. After Sep 2^nd My lab will start and I will get another community. Additionally, I want to belong a lot of communities like club or volunteerand  I try to speak English there. Of course, I am trying to do to my roommate. My English skills are worst in my roommate so I can learn lots in my room. I don’t forget to learn English.

By the way, I went to Event that held by International Scholar. We got food and drink and talk lots. I tried to speak English but their English is too fast so it is difficult to understand. when they talk to me, I couldn’t understand and our conversation didn’t go on. I was sad and felt my own helplessness. I was going to study speaking but I notice that if I want to talk, Listening is more important than I thought. I underestimate native speed of speaking. I think it three times as fast as TOEIC listening test. I decide that I watch TED every day, read a book, write what I couldn’t understand and write a diary in English once two days. I am going to try everything.

Underestimate：なめてた

my own helplessness：無力感

First day in The U.S

今日から全部英語で書くぞー！って思ってたけどなかなかレベルが高いので日本語の文を書いてからその下に自力で英訳していこうと思います。笑

たくさん間違えると思いますが、軽ーく見てください。

googleにぶち込んだりはしません。

今日はアメリカにつきました！

トータル20時間ほどのフライトを経てサンフランシスコにつきました。着いてから喉が乾いてたのでStarbucksで休憩しました。

ストローを見てみると紙製！スタバは2020年までにプラスチック製のストローを廃止するといっていますが、こうして導入されているとスタバってすげーってなりますね。将来はどこまでエコが進むのか期待と楽しみ。またそれに協力できる仕事も楽しそうだなって思いました。あ、あとスーパーで買い物したときも袋いるって言ったら紙袋でした。

なんとかアパートにつき、暇だったので大学を散歩してみました。アメリカの大学って本当にきれい！自然と一体って感じしますよね。

何回か場所聞いてみたり、話しかけてみましたが、みんな英語速すぎ(-_-)。。

まじで聞きとれん！頑張って半年でネイティブと対等に話が続くまで英語がうまくなりたいです。

I arrived in America today!!

I arrived in SFO adn It takes 20hours. When I was aiport, I was very thirsty so I went to STARBUCKS. 

My first shopping

Please look below picture. A straw is made from paper.　STARBUCKS said we stop using plastic straw. I was surprised and I am looking forward to seeing the future of ecology. I was getting interested in making ecology products. Also, I got a paper bag when I went shopping at supermarket.
