Hello;-)☆～♪ I came home from Minesota on Wednesday. That experience was so important for me. I have learned various things for one month. I'll write an essay which I wrote when we made miscellany.


To tell the truth, I haven't known where Minnesota was since I came here, but I could meet many people and many things in here. All of them including good points and bad points which I couldn't figure out when I lived in Japan. At first, my feeling was included anxiety and hope. After I had prepared to go, I went to KGU with my parents. Then we tool two planes. I was so tired because we stayed for a long time in plane, but I didn't notice my tiredness. However, when we arrived here, I was so surprused that the sky and cloud were so close to us, and I admired the beautiful nature. After we arrived here, we went to each house. During the drive I surprised people in here's car speed. It was so first. All of the things which I saw were so fresh for me, so I braced myself all the way to the house. However, I was so tired , so that day was so stern day for me, and I little regretted that I joined this course. I have been so nervous for first week, but I had many experiences. On Sunday, I went to church with my host family. I hadn't ever been to church in Japan, so my image of church was so quiet and boring place. Actually, we sang many songs wioth execution by band and shook hands with many people, so that place aroused me. I was so fun. I havw been realized the importance of meeting since I came here because many races of people live here. In addition, I could learn many things from ESL and homework. One of them is "adoption". My image of that was negative, but that changed positive after I learned. My host familymoved from Canada. Therefore, I could know many things about Canada. I was so happy to experience that. In addition, I thank my host family to gime me many precious experiences. I wanted to experience American culture. I could go to ice cream shop, movie theater, art museum, many kinds of restaurants, grocery stores, watch DVDs, go cycling to see lake, University of Minnesota, held homeparty, play volleyball, wedding, and I could go cruise, nursing home for eldery people, preschool, make cookies, Dakota country fair, and conoeing. I think if I didn't join this course, I couldn't experienced these things. In addition, I noticed that I depended on my parents before I came here, so I'll do what I can do myself from now on, and I'll do my best to improve my English ability and my life.
