My introduction

I'm bad girl. I must actually write it first, but I forgot about it. Now I write.

Hi, I'm Mana. I came from Saitama in Japan. I grew up in Saitama, but I was born in Kyoto. My parents from Kyoto. I'm 20 years old. My hobby is listen to music and play basketball. I like K-pop. Do you know SUPER JUNIOR? It is most favorite artist. I began basketball when I was 7 years old. I continued it to 18 years old. Sometimes I play it now.

I came to Canada to increase an English skill. How long do I grow until February? It was a game with oneself, so I do my best.
However, I want to make a lot of memories. Let's make it together!!

Nice to meet you :)

Values

Hi everyone!
I talk about "Values". I think it is important for us.
I decided ranks from 1 to 10.

1. An exciting life
2. Freedom
3. Family unity
4. A comfortable life
5. Developing yourself to the fullest
6. Keeping harmony and balance in your life
7. Wisdom
8. Stable and solid relationships
9. World peace
10. Economic Stability

Most important value is "An exciting life". Why I chose this No.1 because it is boring if there is not something fun. The same life is tiring every day. I think that it is fun every day if I make a plan. However, the plan sometimes broke, right? I think it is fun, too! It should be fun every day. Every day is fun because it is different situation every day!

This weekend!

Hi! How are you? I'm fine:)

I talk about this weekend!

July 18, Nanami, Kinari, and I were watching movie in Queen's Park Stadium. Last week was "FROZEN" and this week was "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" Main character is a boy. This story about he is absent a school and he goes out to play. It was funny! I like this movie. We bought popcorn. Big popcorn. I shared it. Caramel taste popcorn was very delicious. I bought it in Safeway, so please buy it if you want to eat it. I recommend that you share it.



July 19, I played with Nanami and Kinari. We ate SUSHI!!! We did a SUSHI Party. It was exciting!! We like SUSHI:) We watched movie in my house. We watched "MASK" and "Toy Story". Do you know these movies? Maybe you know. These movies are very interesting.

It was very happy two days. Thank you Nanami and Kinari.

Thank you for reading.

Any regrets

Hi everyone!
Now, I talk about three regrets.

First, when I was junior high school student. I belonged to basketball. My basketball teacher was old woman, but she was very scary. The training was always severe, but my team became strong, and I became like a teacher. However, she moved suddenly in a different school. Then I thought that I was very regret. I cried a lot. After she left, she came to watch a training and game several times. I was so happy! I don't forget the teacher.

Second, I like English since junior high school student. The test is good result, but I can't speak. I think that it is regret. I came to Canada, and several months passed. However, I think that I don't grow up, I need more study.

Third, there were three times of change class when I was high school student. I was not able to become same class with my best friends, so I have not friend in the first time. It was very sad and regret. However, I made a lot of friends! I think that I was enough alone because I can make a lot of new friends.

Finally, there are many regrets, but it is good. I think that it may be good after the regret.

Pet Peerves

Hello, everyone!! I talk about a Pet Peeves. I write example. 1. It bugs me when my parents are snoring loudly while they are sleeping. 2. It drives me crazy when a bus doesn’t come on time. 3. It drives me crazy when I did something that the person doesn’t say thanks. 4. It drives me crazy when my old brother loud a sound and listening to music. 5. It bugs me when I talk with a friend, somebody shuts out the talk. 6. It bugs me when my old brother watches TV all the time. 7. It bugs me when my father and an old brother don’t take care of the pet. 8. It bugs me when my father and an old brother don’t help mother. 9. It drives me crazy when an insect enters the room. 10. It bugs me when someone slanders a friend. All the thought are different, and I can not understand what the person thinks. I think it is nature, but it is very difficult for me!!! Thank you for reading:)

Whale Watching

June 15, I went to Whale Watching with my roommate. It was very exciting!! We were luck on that day. There are two reason. The first, it was rain by the forecast but it hardly rained. The second, I was able to watch a family whale.






 There were 5~6 whale, and there was whale baby.

 

I looked for the first time! I'm so happy!





This is an Eagle. There were several of them.
I looked very big!!










This is a seal. They are break in a group.
It's so cute!!

We went to Victoria from Granville island for about 3 hours. It is the trip about 6 hours. I feel sick..... but I was able to look.  The money was expensive but I think it was good to go. Very fun!! I think that I am value going. When you go??? hahaha

 

An accomplishment

I think that I have not yet challenged a difficult thing. I felt satisfied after I have completed a challenging task. It is a part-time job. I worked as a bell girl, and I like this work. I think that I was able to be satisfied every time because I like it. I make an effort to achieve a goal.
I have not yet achieve a goal. I want to be a bell girl or front service. I am studying now because I think both work sometimes speak English. I study hard to be accomplished. As for this work, personality and character is important, but knowledge and experience is important too. You should make an effort, and maybe you should change how to study. You should challenge everything. I think that this is the most important thing.

Polite

What is polite? It is difficult for me to think about this. I think that polite is common sense and consideration. For example, I get up in the morning and I say hell to parents. It is the same for a friend. For example, I gave my seat to the old person. I think that anyone knows the polite because when we were a child, we were taught it by parents. We may not be taught it by parents. There are many manners in Japan, but Canada and Japan are different. It is Ladies first in Canada, but Japan is different. Japanese people say "Itadakimasu" before eat a meal and "Gochisousamadeshita" after a meal, but Canadian people does not say. The manners are different by a country. I want to know other county manner! Polite is different by a country too, so I think that it is interesting and difficult.

Thank you

Happy weekend

June 1, I went to go Waterfront with my friend. Friend name is Chihiro. We were play only two is first time, so I'm exciting! We ate food, and looked at some hotels. I see  Georgia hotel, Fairmont Hotel, Metropolitan Hotel, For seasons Hotel, and Pan pacific Hotel. I think most good hotel is For seasons Hotel because it is easy to enter and good service, but I  want stay hotel is Pan pacific Hotel.





Next I ate a hot dog. The name of the hot dog which I ate is OKONOMI. It is delicious. Shop name is JAPADOG. There are a lot of kinds, and the selesclerk was Japanese. I want to eat,too.
 




 We looked for a cafe, but it is not an ordinary cafe. It is a stylish cafe. The shop which we went is "faubourg". There were many visitors in this shop. We ordered soup, millefeuille cake, macaroon, and ice coffee. There was the terrace,too. The atmosphere was good, so I want to go again!



I want to know many cafes, and want to know Vancouver!! Thank you Chihiro.
