Weekend

Good morning.
It's September 17th, 10:06 a.m.
Today is holiday! But I don't know what kind of holiday it is. Anyway, I don't have class today.
Now I'm in Lockwood library. Maybe, this is biggest library in UB. I can't compare with Konan library. It has 6th floors, and we can eat and drink inside the library. There are many spaces which we can focus on the study. My favorite one is this individual booth. Today is study day. I'll finish up my class assignment! :)


This Friday, Saturday and Sunday, I spend very fun time with my friends. On Friday,we went to IMAX theater to watch new "Resident Evil." That was the first time for me to watch a movie in IMAX, and that was fabulous! The screen was huge, ans sound system was like that I was actually in the movie. The movie itself was also good, but I felt that the Resident Evil isn't zombie movie anymore.

Saturday was also fun. I had a dinner at my Korean friend's house with 3 korean, 1 American friends. The owner of house, one of Korean friend, made us many kinds of Korean food.

She made Yakitori for me! That was actually taste like Japanese Yakitori. We also drunk Korean alcohol, Soju.


Yesterday, Sunday was Japanese Student Association(JSA)'s BBQ event!
I met some new Japanese exchange students who came from mainly Konan Cube, and other university in Japan, and foreingn people who are interested in Japanese culture.
If you are Japanese exchange student, you might concern about how to make a relationship with other Japanese exchange students. While you are in foreign country, you will face some difficulty. At that time, your Japanese friend is going to help you. You don't have to feel guilty to communicate with Japanese people whan you are in foreign country.


Anyway, I had a good weekends!
See you!

Good Evening!

Now the time is 12:25 p.m.
I have not been uploaded my English blog such a long time...
The days in here are very busy. I'm using almost of all my freetime to do my class assignment.
I'm taking 4classes now. 2 classes for ESL(English as Second Language) class, and rest of them are academic class. Academic classes are "American Foreign Policy" and "Fundamental Journalism."
Both of them are really hard to catch up with the speed, but they are very interesting.

So many things are changed from the summer time. Especially, my dormitory.
In summer time, I was living in Greiner Hall which is the newest building in North campus, UB. Actually, many of the ELI(English Language Institute) students, including me, are the first people who were live in that building. But after summer vacation, we had to move to another place, and now I'm living in the building called Ellicott complex. And now I really feel I want to move out.

For exchange students, it seems like there are no other choices to live in here without dormitory. However, actually there are many other choices. Many people said it's good for us to live with the person who has different culture, and It's also help you to learn English. I think it's not wrong, but actually we don't have so much time to talk to our roomie. And sometimes It's disturb you to concentrate on your work. In my opinion, your room should be a place where you can be relaxed.
For the person who plan to go to UB, I'll introduce some other choices later. I'm talking about this because me myself found some difficulty to live in dormitory now.

But anyway, my life in here as UB student gradually became stable. Although sometimes feel very stressful, and loneliness, I'm trying to cope with it by myself or with someone who can rely on.

So, yeah...see you later. I'll sometimes come back here to write journal. I believe it's gonna be helpful for my study. Bye!
