I always post this blog from my mobile before I sleep, but I am writing this from my computer. I get used to write English sentence from mobile, but typing keyboard is a little bit hard for me. Sometime changing environment is good to notice new thing.
Today, I took a Listening test that is a similar type of EPP's final test. Maybe not only me, but I was really impressed about reality of my ability. So, the context of the listening test was not hard, but it was hard to write sentence while listening to the lecture. Moreover, I noticed that I had problem with spelling, for example, "hamburger". Even though I have lived in NZ for one year, I wrote "humburgur". How many times have I been to burger fuel??? Are you kidding??? I was really ashamed and got mad to myself. What I thought my weakness was Writing and Reading was totally wrong. I am still not good at Listening.
Then, I remember the Japanese quotation " 鉄は熱いうちに打て- Tetsu wa atsui uchini ute", which is called in English " Strike while the iron is hot." Although I feel pressure now, I am sure I will forget about this fear soon. So far I haven't give up the two task, thus I can manage new task too.
I have never imagine that I would study hard something after I graduate from university. My hardest study period, in my high school, all students were so keen and maybe good raised up, and they studied three hours everyday after school, which means 7 pm. I entered the high school because my father said to me that he would take me to the London trip if I enter there. I really did not know it was the really hard and keen school, so it was my most hardworking period. However, I think it was correct choice. The friends studied together there were very kind, honest and respectable people, and I am still keep in touch with them 8 years after graduated there. Furthermore, I would not be here if I didn't studied there. I am appreciated to all teachers and students for letting me know how the effort works to me, and how the study widens our view of thinking. Oh, I didn't plan to write about high school so much, but I am writing too much!
So, overall, I need to workout before I will rust. I feel like running marathon everyday, but the goal is sure almost there.

day 6 - keeping a relation
Sometimes, keeping with human relation is more difficult than continuing studies. When I think about a topic which relate to the fact, I can speak fluently and have many ideas. However, it's very hard to continue speaking about personal or emotional thing. It's getting harder and harder with my age.

day 5 - it's not task anymore
Today is the fifth day of my writing a dairy in English and doing exercise 10 mins. It was hard first two days, but I don't feel tired anymore.
One of attributes of having routine task is that we can find our progress easily. I support the idea that sport never betray you if you do effort everyday. But, not only sport, learning a language is also fit the idea.
I'm really proud that I am wrong a blog in English.

day 4 -Japanese behaviour
I attended one programme from school today. It was a programme intend to know the way how native speaker will do in many situations.
We learned about how to disagree people in a proper way. Then, we simulate the situation to ask louder people in a library, and I was picked up for the simulation.
Many other international student could do almost right way even they have several mistake or habit. However, mine was totally funny for people and I got ashamed!! Although I tried to warn people, many people thoght that "it's too polite", "you don't need to bow", " you should not be modest". I was really surprised about the differences between Japanese and other people!!
Some European culture, such as Germany or Swizzerland, they are more direct than others, so they need to say less direct when they talk to other cultural people. But, Japanese are too abstract and weak to talk to others. Thus, we need to show our opinion more more direct even though we think it's rude. Because what we think rude is totally natural for some other culture.
I have been abroad for one year, but I still have Japanese behaviour a lot. Just keep good parts, then, through away strange behaviour.
day 3 - Geisai 2014
Geisai 2014, which is my graduated university's festival was held last Friday and finished today.
I know it already passed two years since I graduated from my university. But I still like my university and principle of my school and cultures. Even I didn't attend, my parents went there, and many of my friends posted photos.These reminds me the memory of my university days. It was really busy and had many many hardship, but I think I like it now.
I just want to say that good job you guys, and good luck next year! hope I can go next year.

Day2- skype with a friend
I put the title "Day 2" because it is my second day of writing a dairy in English. I will put number, so I put number not to forget the habit.
Today, I skyped with my old friend. She is a really unique person but I really feel comfortable at the same time. Although we just talked about 30 mins, I refreshed so much.
I like friends here too, but old friend gives me energy. Nothing is better than good friendship.
新しい日課 - new daily habit -
I am sorry that long time I did not post to my blog. I have stocked many stuff to write.
First, I am going to fix the information. I said I got stomoch flu before, but it was another sick. I have gotten UTI ( urinal tract infection) . It is a desiease that tubes related to pee is infected by bacteria, and common for women. Then, usually people feel pain when they peeing, but I felt pain with my stomach, so I and doctors also did not notice. The bacteria went to my Kidney! What I thought stomach pain was kidney pain! I have never thought about "kidney", so I had no idea the difference stomach pain and kidney pain. I really appriciate to the doctor that he have found out my sick. My pain had lasted for two weeks stop immediately after took the medicine to kill bacteria.
So, if someone feel pain for few days or weeks, before you think it was beacause of stress or eating too much, it is better to go to see a doctor, and find out whether UTI or not. If you do not, you will suffer by the devastating pain!
Next, I will start my blog in English again.
This week, after the one week break, the second half semester stared. Then, our teacher also changed. I was interviewed by her yesterday, and discussed about "writing" that is my weakness of English, and how to improve it. She suggested that
"Just write somthing everyday. Write a dairy."
Write a dairy may not improve my academic writing skills, but enjoy writing is the best way to get close to English.
The last thing I would like to write is second new habit.
I went to buy a jeans and a sweater today, and I impressed that my body have gotten fat moch more than before. The jeans was so cute design and nice colour and reasonable. However, my belly and bat was goning to go out from the jeans!! I was really sad about the fact, but it is reality. I wondered wheather I should buy or not, finally I bought it. Because I believed that I could loose the fat.
So, my new daily tast is exercise for belly and legs. Just 10 minutes, but everyday I will barn my fat until I get the bady to wear the jeans.
Overall, I will satrt two tasks that writing a dairy and 10 mins exercise.
