Long time no see!!


Hi!!!!
As you know, I'm soooooooo laze sometimes, so I haven't posted any diaries at all for long time lol


Well, I'm enjoying my life in Japan.

Look at these photoes, yummy foods!!

Yakitori is one of my favorite foods, which is grilled chicken and leek with sweet soy source. (left photo)

Maguro no sashimi is also my favorite food. This is fresh raw tuna fish.

And Ika no shiokara is fantastic! It is squid guts pickled in salt. The appearance is disgusting actually but the taste is really good. I guess many European people don't like it as well as Natto which is fermented soy beans. I put it on rice and eat them. Ika no shiokara is also one of the best garnish for Sake (Japanese rice wine)

New family

Yesterday I saw a little cute cat, She was walking near my house.

I said "Hello, cat" and she came to me.
While I was carrying my bike to up the strairs to my house,
the cat was following me!
So cute!

Finally she came in front of the door.
I wanted to let her in the house.
But.
Unfortunately, our dog George eats cats!!!!

so, I couldn't.
Just I said "Sorry I have to say goodby"
She was rolling over the floor and looked to stay at my house.
I said "Away you go" loudly and she has gone.

I jumped into the lounge and talked to George with angery voice

"Because of you, I couldn't let a cute cat in this house!!!!"

My host parents laught...hahaha and host mother said

"Look at this"

Oh.....what's this?
Very cute fluffygolden thing.

That's is a labrador puppy!

The cat couldn't become a new family
but this baby is the new family!!

Soooooo cute!!!!

Tomorrow I will upload her photos on Face book :)

Time

I went to Olveston on Fri.
It was awesome!
The house itself is fantastic.
I could see their life of 100 years ago.
And there are a lot of treasures such as Chinese pottery and Japanese samurai swords.

Today, I went for a walk with George.
Who? George is our dog. (^・ω・^)
Very pretty.
I miss my cat~~~~~~~!!!!!

I feel I'm more stupid when I'm speaking English than when I'm speaking Japanese.
It doesn't matther because I'm stupid naturally.
However, a big problem is that my personality is dramatically changed between the languages.

Sometimes it is good.
I don't become aggressive and don't fight with strangers who insulte me about my height.
You know, I don't know how to be rough in English.

The same thing happens when I want to be kind.
I don't know how I can console my friends, how I can use psycological techniques in English
how I can say my openions softly.

Probably I can do it but it takes longer time than native English speakers do,
so the conversation has gone while I'm thinking the proper words........

Just I'm a useless stupid childish small Asian girl in here.

Oh.... don't be negative.
Be positive!!!!

I need time to study English more more more.
I don't want to go back to Japan.
Time flys fast like an arrow.


Conclusion:
Confidence is important.

Hikkey??

I overslept today... I was going to get up at 7:30 and watch a presentation of my friend from 9:00, but I missed it!!!!!
I was just at home and studied for an entarance exam to become a teacher.
"A person who is staying at home all the day" is called "Hikikomori" in Japanese, and "Hikkey" is the abbreviation, hahaha.
The word Hikikomori reminds me of snails. I don't know why.

By the way, I noticed I like studing math, politics and law. I used to hate them...
Maybe tomorrow my preference will change again :b
Uh~~~~the weather is still beutiful, so I may go for a walk to Otago harbor.

The day after tomorrow I'm going to Olveston. I've already booked the tour :D
Exciting~♪

Hi!!

I'm Chan Lee. This is my nickname in Japan.
I have two Japanese blogs but I wanted to write it in English because I have friends from various countries now.
And... this blog will be good writing practice.
English is so useful!
