Sakura

Right now, in our Japanese 401 class, we're watching a drama named "Sakura." Authentic materials are the best way to learn a language. This drama is about a girl named Sakura who lives in Hawaii and is engaged to be married to an American guy named Robbie (who can speak Japanese). Sakura returns to Japan before she gets married to see her Grandma and Grandpa. Her Grandpa is always grumpy, and its hilarious. His Japanese is hard to understand because he speaks quickly and doesn't enunciate his words. I can't wait to see what happens next. Has anyone heard of this drama before?

アメリカの授業

今、頭の上で卒業が思っているけど、今は授業をパスの方ができるだろう。クラスが大変になれるから。ずいぶん忙しくなるそうですが、悪循環だよね！

アメリカの大学で本当に勉強すればいいと思う、毎日ね。でも、僕はー週間ぐらい勉強される。本当に、読むのが大きらいだ。本とか長い読み物は時々つまらなくてねむいになる。書来のためにちゃんと勉強して後で生活は楽になるのですが、そうかと言って僕に勉強の事は大切じゃないから。

じゃ、作文を書きなくちゃ。では、またね。

My host family

My host family in New Zealand was very kind for me.
The mother is a English teacher in high school, so when my homeworks made me confused, she often gave me a hand.
The father is good at make something. In their house, there are a lot of thing by his hand.
For example, the book shelf, TV rack, chair, and so on.

My childfood

When I was young, my mother made some clothes by hand . Yesterday I found it in long time . It remind me when I was young. I think I was so handful for her at the time because I always made her so confused.

Anyway, It's nice memories for me.

Annie's Introduction

Hi everyone,

My name is Annie and I am a Junior at Michigan State University. I was born in China and lived there until I was 9 years old. I moved to Asahikawa, Hokkaido in 1997 and lived there until 2000. I loved the cold winters and cool summers of Hokkaido and wish go visit someday. Right now I am studying Physiology at MSU and working to become an optometrist. I love to sing and watch TV and read novels (although recently I haven't had the time to anything but my science text books). My favorite Japanese singer of all time is Hamasaki Ayumi. I love her voice and her beautiful lyrics that anyone can relate to. I like watching random TV shows like games shows, college football games, and shows on MTV. I love reading Japanese novels when I have time. My favorite novel is Wasure Yuki by Shindou Fuyuki. I recently heard that this novel is under the production to become a play in Takarazuka. I wish I have the chance to watch them perform. I'm very excited to be able to communicate with everyone in this blog. Doozo yoroshiku onegaishimasu.
