Home visit

Today, I went to my English teacher's home.

I surprised that this home is very beautiful because I have never been to American home.










When I met my teacher's children, I was very excited,because they were very cute!

I was very glad to meet them because I have no younger brother or sister than me.

After that I played with teacher's cat.










This cat is very cute! so too fat?

I thought that I want to have forein people's child and to make beautiful house like this.

My second week

Monday, first I went to Lake Champlain Chocolate Factory.

I ate milk chocolate, but  I don't like it because I like bitter chocolate more than milk chocolate.

I was glad to eat bitter chocolate. I thought that bitter chocolate was very tasty.

Second, I went to Ben & Jerry's ice cream factory.

I was surprised at that factory because it was very spread out and big.

I ate caramel ice but it was very thick. I thought that all American food was very thick.

Last, I went to Cold Hollow Cider Mill Factory.

I drank apple cider. I thought that it was carbonated but actually it was different,

so  I was very surprised!

Tuesday, I thought that the movie would be very difficult but actually it was easy to understand.

I enjoyed seeing to the movie, and I thought that all the movie characters were very cute!

I was glad to see the movie but I thought that making the movie was very difficult,

because when I made a music video, I had trouble with it!

Last, I thought that I want to see another movie and learn to make the movie.

Compared Japan with America!

Yesterday's snow was very interesting!










Yesterday's class was absent!

By the way first of all,I compared Japan's environment with America's environment.

A commonplace, America's temperature is colder than Japan's temperature.

But,I thought that Japan is more precious of environment than America.

Because I felt that cigarette ends were a lot of places in outside.











As smoker, I admitted this!

And I felt that America's car are idling for a lot of time.but,Japanese car aren't  too idling.

Next, I compared Japanese friendship with America's that.

For example greetings.In America, when people open the door, American people say  "Thank you, You're welcome.

But Japanese people don't too say. I thought that Japanese people should do that originally.

Because I thought that American were more friendly than Japanese.

Home Party!

I went to at Alicia's home today.

I cooked Japanese noodle![yaki-udon].

This is yaki-udon!










I was glad to American people said very good.

After that, I went to Dance Party at Alicia's home.


I was amazing to Dance Party because American's Dance Party was too more different than Japanese that.











I thought that American's Dance Party was very cool! and I wanted to go to Dance Party again!

My first week!

Main idea: Montreal was cold but amazing.

this is Notre-Dame .









First of all, I compared Japan's temperature with Montreal's temperature

because I had never experienced very cold temperature like that.

I was surprised that Montreal's temperature was much colder than Tokyo's temperature.

Next, I compared Japanese food culture with Canada's food culture.

I was surprised at Canadian foods.

I didn't  know Japanese foods made in the woods, but maple syrup is made in the woods.

This is maple syrup


I learned that Canadians think that the woods are precious.

Conclusion: Montreal's temperature was very cold, but it was a good experience

because I learned about Canada and Canadian culture.

About rice balls the coffee hour

We made 300 rice balls yesterday.

When I ate rice balls, I thought that it was very delicious.

 I was tired but I enjoyed the coffee hour.

But, I talked to Japanese for the first time.

I talked to two Japanese people. Their names are Mai and Riko.

I was surprised that they spoke in English fluently.

I thought that I wanted to become like them, and I was glad to be able to promise to go to a Dance Party with Alisha and them  tomorrow.

I'm looking forward to go to the dance party.

My 3rd week!

I  presented about weddings on Feb 28th!








When I  presented about weddings, I was sleepy,

but after,  I was surprised when I heard about America's thinking.

I thought that all Americans want to get married more than Japanese,

but, actually they are similar to Japanese.

For example, we both think it is necessary to love is each other before getting married.

Also, the average age we think we should get married isn't too different.

Finally,  women want to feel comfortable in their house after getting married.

 There are also some differences.

There are things that Japanese women think are more important than American women about marriage and money.

Japanese men have bad points.

Japanese men seek youth and beauty in women and they don't feel like they should do any housework and childcare.

American men sometimes do housework and childcare.

I thought that I wanted to become American.  

In conclusion: ideas about marriage differ between women and men. Men have improved their thinking about marriage and the trend  is changing.

Last, I want to feel comfortable after getting married, because I think that it is very important to feel comfortable in marriage.
