My Special Time❤




Recently, I had two things that I really enjoyed.
First, I went to Adams Elementary school for volunteer.
My activity was Japanese game or dance, so we decided to teach them to Bon dance, sumo and snow man game. At first, we worried about our activity because we had very short time. We thought very difficult to tell them these activity such a short time. But we tried to do our best.
They were so sweet and they showed interest in everything that we taught even though
our explanation was so bad. I was very happy to see their cute smile. I felt this volunteer is very
awsome because I could make students very hapy and fun. What's more, I could enjoy it with
them. I want to do volunteer more and more if I can. I had a great time with students.
The next thing that I really enjoyed is I went to Barbara's house. She invited all of extension
students and November 19th was our group's turn. At first, we went to Sushi yama.
It was the Japanese restaurant and I went there for the first time. Surprisingly, when we
arrived there, I found a car that looks like Anikke's car and there was Anikke!!!!
I was so happy that she joined us. We orderd Japanese delicious box meal. It was almost
like Japanese food!!! I was so excited. We talked many topic such as Japanese custom
or Japanese food. I was very surprised because my family' s custom is different from
other families. My family always eat Osechi on December 31st. I thought it is
natural. But I noticed it is wrong. Japanese usually eat them on January 1st. I couldn't
believe it. My family was wrong!!!! It' s too late to notice. But we usually eat Ozouni on
January 1st but another friend's family eat it December 1st, so we thought we have
own custom in our house. I enjoyed talking very much!!!! After that, we went to
Barbara's house. Her house was very pretty!!!! I love her house. I saw real fireplace
for the first time. It was very warm!!! I was very happy that I could see it, and she
made us chocolatecake^^ It was so delicious!! We were the happiest girls in the world.
The day was like dream. I enjoyed it very much. Thank you Barbara!!!
