last day of school


Today is the last day of school. Next time I’m back in 2009. Lots of thing happened in 2008. I spent first day of 2008 in Japan. I spent time with my parents, my grandparents and my relatives. Then 2008 had started. Beginning of 2008, I was training for tennis season every day. In spring, tennis season had started. Our season started by doing lots of scrimmage game. I won most of scrimmage game. Then league match had started. There were only four teams in our league. Mamaroneck, Rye and Edgemont. We fought them pretty well. Then we had individual tournament and my season was over. Class of 2008 had graduated. I had lots of memory with them so I was sad. Then summer vacation had started. Beginning of summer vacation, I stayed in US and went to tennis camp. I spent more than a month in tennis camp. Tennis camp was like a running camp. We woke up at 6:00am and run to the beach that is like few miles away from where we sleep. Then we took breakfast and run to tennis court that is like 3miles away. We play tennis for few hours and ran again. Then we ran back. I ran a lot that month. It was really tough time. I thought I’ll get killed with all the running. But it was good experience. I was so happy that I could go to Japan because of the tennis camp. In Japan I played with many friends and ha d fun. I wish all my day is like a summer vacation. Then, in end of august, I came back to Keio and, my 12th grade had started. Lots of things had happened in year 2008 and all of those things are my good memory. I wish my year of 2009 will be good.
See you

BOWLING


On saturday, I played tennis in a morning. I practiced a lot and played match with other people. It was very useful practice for me. after tennis practice, Iwent to Bowling with my friends. Bowling alley was located in whiteplains. We played three games. i scored pretty well but i couldn't win. I was pretty sad about it. Bowling is really hard. If you throw the ball too softly, you can' hit all the pins. If you throw it too strong, you lose control and you can't hit the pins. I thought it was really hard. But I enjoyed playing bowling. We had fun. After playing bowling, we went to kalbi house. we ate lots of kalbi. it tasted really good. I wish i could eat kalbi all the time. well, all the time is may be too much. any time i want is best. After Kalbi house, we went back to keio. i was so tired with all the activity i did that day so i immediately went to bed. I had fun this day.

MOMA


Last weekend, me and my friends went to Manhattan again. We woke up early and got prepared. We used train to go to Mnahattan. This time, we went to MOMA. MOMA is Museum of Modern Art. They were pretty interesting. Although, they were some weird art. Art is the world that I could never understand. In the museum there were many art that I thought I could make one of those. Well I think the world of Art is not that easy. You need imagination to make art. people who are good with art have good imagination. It was kind of fun watching those art in MOMA. After we went to the museum, we went to Yakiniku restaurant. It wasn't cheap but it tasted good. After we ate lunch, we walk around fifth avenue and went back to Keio. After i came back to Keio, I watched TV show all night long.
last weekend, i learned many stuff. Iwish Icould go there again. see you

theater day

Last wednesday, we went to see a musical "Hair spray". It took about 1 hour to go to the musical. We came to the theater early so teachers let us go around the theater. I went to chinese food restaurant. Yoshitaka ordered dumpling for us. But when the we ordered, we didn't have much time. So one of us stayed in the restaurant and others went back to the theater. we were almost late. But eventually we get to eat dumling. It tasted good. After that we went in to the theater. Hair spary is about old America that talks about racism. I enjoyed it watching. I loved the story, music and everything. I loved the opening where main character Tracy wakes up from her bed and sings. I was very impressed with the actor. I don't know how they sing like that. i enjoyed watching it and i wish i could see it again.

Last weekend

last weekend, i went to Manhattan. I went to Manhattan with Katsuhiro and Shota. At first we went to SOHO to buy some clothes. We looked at many shops but i didn`t buy any clothes because there weren`t any clothes that I liked. For the lunch, we went to china town. I ate chinese food. It was good. In china town there were lots of fake things. Japanese DVD was sold in china town. After we went to china town, we went to Kinokuniya. Kinokuniya is Japanese book store. we looked at some books. There were very interesting. We went back to Keio after we went to Kinokuniya. By the time we went back to Keio, it was about eight o`clock. i took shower and after that, I played Jinsei game. Jinsei game is a board game which is made just like a human`s life. You get jobs and get married just like a real life. The one who got most money wins. I was in last place but in the last, i gain lots of money by gambling. It was fun. I wish i could have a day like this every day. see you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
