---Sleep Over with ERI---

On Tuesday I went to Eri’s house to prepare for our presentation.

First went to home, and I headed to Eri’s house. When I arrived at the station、she was in front of the station. I told that you don’t need to come. How kind she is.

I rest about few minutes. We watched Vain. Do you know that app? It is a video which we can make about 6 seconds. We watched Kemio. He makes very good videos! It is very funny. We laughed a lot, we could not stop laughing…

I had a shower, and she had a shower after me. As you know, we have not practiced yet… and we are already sleepy. We practiced less than 1 hour.

 

 

 

---Esperanto---

Do you know what Esperanto is?
Actually, I did not know what it is. When I had an Int. TOEFL Workshop class last Wednesday, I knew about it. I’m going to tell you about Esperanto.
It is a language which is not mother language. It is used for communicating with each other who are speaking different languages. Maybe in this world we use English when we want to talk to people who cannot speak Japanese, but it is not fair, because people who speak English do not have to learn other languages. The grammar is kept simple, and it is similar to words in European.
Still, there are few people speak Esperanto, so we should share what it is, and use that language!

---Feeling Japan---

In my summer vacation, my friends and I went to Kyoto Kawaramachi. Do you know why we went to there? It is not just for hanging out. To make a pottery for one each. I did not remember why we decided to make it, however it is a great thing, because these days, many people hang out for shopping, karaoke, entertainments etc. this is not good. We live in Japan. And of course we are Japanese, so this is a good idea to do something which are felt Japanese cultures.

At the first, we were so nervous, that we can make it or not. We decided the design, then soon, we started making it! People who help us making are so kind. They taught very kindly, and we enjoyed making it during making.  We could make, but it took 2 weeks until it is complete, burning and put colors on the pottery. So we were excited them how it was change. We saw the street of Kyoto, and felt Kyoto! We wanted to eat something to feel cool, we decided to have shaved ice which is called “Kakigoori” in Japanese. It was yummy. I enjoyed it!

After few days, the pottery was arrived at home, I was so excited to open it. They were so awesome. I love it.

If you go to Kawaramachi, you should try to make the pottery!!
