Birthday card!

I made a Birthday card for Ryan ,who is from Montana,one of my weird and best friends, with Tomoko and three other fresh mans. His birthday is January 29th and he's gonna turn 22. It took 4 hours to make this, although we had to study for exam. we spent them for him. What a nice person we are!! we cut many pictures and put them on letter. It was pretty good than I expected. I didn' feel like study anymore when we finshed..because I was too tired..lol
Does anyone know Rob Fell? He is Ryan's brother who has studied abroad to, Kumamoto Gakuen University,Japan for a year as a exchange student. we hung out a lot if we have a free time and we would often go to Mister Donuts to get Golden chocolate donut which is my favorite one. If people who have never eaten golden chocolate, please try. It worth it!

First Video!

I really like it!　It's so awesome. He name is David Belle.

Trip tp Takamori

I went to Takamori with the exchange students, Takumi and Tomiko. Danny who is from Canada invited his parents to this trip. I've been there twice when I was little with my family.
It took one and a half hours to get to Takamori by train. I could see so beautiful view on the way there. His parents couldn't speak Japanese, so the only way to communicate was English. If I knew more English I could communicate with his parents more easily. I wanted to teach about some questions they asked me. But it was good for each of us.
We went to caldera in Mt. Aso which is the biggest in the world. I heard that sometimes it's not be allow to get in seeing Caldera because of poisonous gas. Fortunately we could get in and watched it.
We visited Yoshino's house who is living in Takamori and we made Okonomiyaki, actually her mother made and we baked it. It's was so nice and everybody liked it.
I had a very good time with nice people.

E-bei drink party

Wednesday night, I had a drink party with my friends who is major in English in downtown. I like party but I don't drink alcohol so much. so I just had two cocktails. We talked and drunk for three hours at Izakaya. About an hours later, we played Bingo. Motomi who is one of my seniors planned it for us. It was my first time to play Bingo at Izakaya, so everybody was very excited and drunk. Though I didn't get any prize, I had a very awesome time.

After that, we went to Karaoke-kan in shimotori and sang and danced a lot. I didn't know that karaoke is so crazy and fun with a lot of friends. lol

We went to Karaoke in downtown for about four hours and then had a dinner in Italian restaurant. We had pizaa, spaghetti, salad, and steak. These were so good and nice size for us. I had parfait after dinner which is kind of milk pudding. It was so yummy I had ever. After that, we took a "Pricula". It has been a while I took that. We had a very good time. Happy birthday Kanako. Have a great year.

Location of Carroll College

I'm going to Carroll College in Helena, Montana, for a year as a exchange student. Helena is the capital of the State of Montana and located west of Montana. Mantana has another name which is 'Big Sky Country'. Carroll College is about 100 years old and ctholic. It's a histrical college. Now, Carroll has 1,400 student and 21 international students who are from 13 different countries. Top three countries are South Korea, Canada and Japan. It's very very small college and a fewer student than other universities. so I will make many friends as much as possible!

I met a adviser of Carroll College last month, and talked with her about school. She was very kind and nice. I heard that I'm going to be an only one student from Japan when I go to Carroll. It's wonderful and so cool!! Because that's what I want. Yeah! I'll do my best.
