I've been studying for TOEIC test and I felt a little bit tired then I was interested in other lunguages such as Spanish and Italian. When I was in America I've been taking Spanish class just one semester so I know that little bit so I started it study again.
Yesterday, I took a onlin English conversasion class and I was so disappointed at my English coversation skils. That's why I desided I need to study English more and more especially "talking".
If someone could talk to me please let me know and of course I will teach Japanese.

I've not been writing my entry these day. I've been thinking about I have to write anything but I was thinking I will do it later. That was my bad hobit.

My friend and I went out to see the Japanese apricot at nere to my hometown's park last weekend. There were ume festival and that was so beautiful.

Only bad thing was last Satuday was bad weather:strong wind and heavy raining.
My friend came to my place on the train from gunnma but train was late and some train was stoped. He couldn't come back to his house because of train problems so he staied my home. Next day was good weather so we went to see the Japansese apricot again. We were also into the Japanse old style big house. That's house was using some shogun to took a rest and invited some shoguns.

It was very full weekend.

I went to eat Yakiniku today and this restran is very cheap and good. The luuch time is that picture lunch is only 500yen. I can eat another helping the rice too but I didn't because that was too much for me. Don't you think it is cheap,isn't it? That taste was good and that was big meals for me so I could not eat all of them.

After eating Yakiniku I ate ice cream I was still full but I always have room for desert. It was very tasty but little too sweet.

Today was I ate too much foods and got many calories so I need a excise>< I thought the spring is comming soon today and I love spring so I am going to walk.

I could not get up untill noon today because I had a headacke and I felt very tired. So I was spending time just easy and no studying English. I just watching two DVDs what was I rented last week.

One is a "Final Destination 5" and this movie is horror and suspense movie. I have seen this previous movie series so I knew the what type of movies. There are some grotesque scenes so this DVD said "R-18". I think this movie is one of a popular B-graded and I liked this kind of movie like "saw" series too.
But there are excessive scenses too so sometimes I want to feel cover my face with my hands.

I watched seconed movie was "Letters to Juliet". This movie is love story and I thought it is intersting. I normaly prefer to love and comedy and my favorite is "How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days". I have seen many times and I was so laugh at heroine. This movie was not funny like a laugh but I liked this story and this movie was makes me want to love.

Today was I only watching DVDs and I feel okay now so I have to study English tomorow.

I do not have nothing to write today so I will write about my favorite comics again.
今日は何も書くことがないので、私のおすすめの漫画についてもう一度書きたいと思います。

This comic named "Saint Oniisan" and it is comedy. I usually do not read comedy comics but I think this one is intersting.
この漫画は「聖☆おにいさん」という名前でコメディーです。私はふだんコメディーの漫画は読まないけどこれは面白いと思います。


This comic's main character are Buddha and Jesus Christ and they are sharing an apartment at Tachikawa,Tokyo.
この漫画の主人公はブッタとイエスで彼らは東京の立川市のアパートに一緒に住んでいます。

I know that's sound crazy but it is comedy and sometimes it mentioned about religions to kind of parody.
これはおかしく聞こえるのと思いますが、この漫画はコメディーでたまに宗教についてのパロディーなんかもあります。

So I don't know how to feel if foreign countries people read it. But in Japan this is one of popular comic.
海外の人たちがこれを読んだらどう思うのか分かりませんが、日本では人気の漫画の一つです。

If you had intersted about it let's try to read.
もしこの漫画に興味を持ったらぜひ読んでみてください。

The personality analysis by blood type was very popular in Japan. There are many books about it.They are thinking about boold type of A is punctuual and type of O is sweeping. Type B is parson goes their way and type AB is complex. I think some people are apply but most of people not apply. I think their personalities are depend on their backgraund. When I heard about other many countries people don't know their blood type and they don't care so much.

If you came to Japan you may asked about what is your blood type because many Japanese people believe it and like to talking about it.

I like a comic that named Uchū Kyōdai.『宇宙兄弟』（うちゅうきょうだい）
私の好きな漫画は宇宙兄弟です。

This story's main caracters are brothers. A little brother's named "Bibito" is astronaut and his big brother is want to becoming astronaut and his name is "Mutta".
この物語の主人公は宇宙飛行士の弟のビビトと宇宙飛行士になりたい兄のムッタの兄弟です。

"Mutta" have inferiority complex about his astromaut's brother because he is clumsy but "Bibito" is talented.
ムッタは宇宙飛行士の弟のビビトに対して劣等感（れっとうかん）を持っています。ムッタは不器用でビビトには才能が有ります。

Mutta is striving for his doreams come true and　that was teach me how important to have a dreams and effort to dreams come true.
ムッタは夢をかなえるために一生懸命努力して、私に夢を持って努力することの大切さを教えてくれました。

This comics make a into a movie soon.
この漫画はもうすぐ映画化されます。

I went to rental video shop yesterday for rent to　DVD of movie that called "Moteki" but these were all rentaled.
昨日私は映画「モテキ」のDVDを借りるためにレンタルビデオショップに行った。しかし全部レンタルされていた。
So I went to today's morning again but these were still rentaled.><
だから今日の朝も行ったけどまだレンタル中だった。

"Moteki" is based to comicbooks then they were made TV dram was started and it was very popular in so the movie was made.
「モテキ」は漫画が原作でテレビドラマが作られた。ドラマが人気だったので映画化された。

I don't know how to say "Moteki" in English but I found these sentenses and that says "his day or my day" and "Every dog has his day" Is that make sense?
「モテキ」を英語で何と言っていいかわからないが、これらの文を見つけた。「モテキは誰にでもあるといわれている」

This story is a main caracter have been popular with women but someday he was very popular with girls and he was loved four women at same time.
この物語は一人のモテない男性がある日突然人気者になって４人の女性から同時に告白されるという話だ。

Do you think every dog has his day?
モテキは誰にでもあると思いますか？

when I lived in US. my friend who is Sri Lankan said he love me and other guy was African. These were first my days. But I have never said I want to be your girl friend because I am too shy maybe.
私がアメリカに住んでいた時友達のスリランカ人の男性が私を好きだといった。そのほかにはアフリカの男性もいた。それらが私の最初のモテキだった。でも私は自分からあなたの彼女になりたいといったことがない。多分恥ずかしいのかもしれない。

Since I was stared to studying in English I decided to a few things. I would like to write down these things for I will not forget about it.

First things are what am I doing to study in English. I am going to listening to some English radio programs and I am keeping to writing diary in English at Lang-8. I want to improvement in my English conversation so I would like to speak to English on Skype and I would like to help Japanese too.
I also decided to take a TOEIC test to how progresing with my English so I am going to start for the studying of TOEIC test. I took the test last time it was more than 4 years ago and that score was not good.This time I want to be a more than 800 point.

I am still thinking about what am I doing but I could decied a few things.
I will go to California US and study English at the language school at first and then I am going to transfer to University. Or I will take a visa about working holiday and I will go to Canada or Australia and I am going to working and go to language school at first couple of mounths.

That things are I am not sure yet but I am going to abroad again. I went to go to US at first time,my English was pretty bad so I could not have fun and make a many friends.I think I was spend too much time with Japanese friens so next time is I will try to make a friends to different countries people.

Anyway I am keep studying in English and I want to go to trip to America or Canada as soon as possible and I want to stay with a family. If you know some good place please let me know.

This daiary was very long and thank you for reading. I think I made a lot of mistakes so please corrects and message if you have a time.

I still don't know how to use "Facebook" :(
私はまだフェイスブックの使い方をよく知らない。

But it is very popular in the worlds　and especially in U.S.
しかしそれは世界中でとても人気である。特にアメリカで。

I think most American use a "Facebook".
ほとんどのアメリカ人はフェイスブックを使っていると思う。

I've seen the movie "The Social Network" and I liked it so I am reading a book about written by Mark Zuckerberg.

Other my friend also likes boyish style and she said "I love a mans but some people thought I am lesbian because I am wearing a boyish closes."

In Japan, we are wearing a many kinds of closes and what they want,but in U.S espesially I went to Comunity College,I saw a most women wearing bootcut jeans.No one wearing like a baggy pants.

Befor I went to U.S I like boyish style and I am wearing my favorite closesing to there but I gradually changed my fasion taste but now is I return my favorite style.
