My Dream


I want to be a English teacher in the future. Now, I am taking classes for being English teacher with 16 peers.

I went to Okadu Jr. High School last week with peers in Kyoshoku class for leaning how to teach English to students. Many kinds of students were in one class, so it might be difficult for teacher.

In English class, they sing, read, and play games. The teacher is always smiling and trying students to have fun to touch with English. Also there was a teacher who was an English native speaker. Because of him, students looked fun to study English more.


I learned many things in this experience.


Now, I want to be a teacher more and more!!

Andes


I am going to go to Peru, the South America.
The reasons why I want to go there are that I want to see Andes, and I am interested in the plants of there. Also I love Latin Music, and clothes of them.
Maybe I should go there in September, so flight ticket will be cheaper than other season I have enough time to travel.
I prefer to go travel by my self, because I do not want someone to disturb my precious travel memory.

I will leave Narita on September 1st. The flight time is 4:oopm.
Firstable I will go to L.A. and transfer to Lima. I will stay L.A. for 3 hours.
I will arrive Lima at 11:55pm at last. I use the American Airlines.

I will return to Tokyo(Narita) from Lima on September 16th.
My flight time is 11:50pm. This time I will stay New York for 3 hours to wait the flight for Narita. Again, I use the American Airlines.

The cost of both flights is $1590. I am a little bit worried, because it is fairy cheap.


I chose the hostel named Home Peru which is very cheap hostel in Lima.
Actually it is colonial mantion with a well maintained garden. It is also in a good area of Lima.
The good point of this hostel is the staffs can speak English. Also there is a small library there, its very nice and neat.
There are air conditioning,Colour TV,Iron and ironing board,Mini bar and Telephone in each guest room.
It costs $210 for 14 days stay. I do not have enough money to stay a great hotel, so I think it is OK for me.

The sightseeing spots I want to go are Iglesia de San Fransisco and Pachacamac.

Iglesia de San Francisco is the church of the Spain baroque in Lima. In 1574, the tower of two bell towers which is 40m in height stands in the front.There is catacomb that 70,000 ashes are unexploited underground.

Pachacamac is the remains of the pre-Incaic civilization times in Lima.
It is built the seventh century, and it is said when destroyed by the Spaniard whom Incaic civilization invaded in conquest in the 15th century.

We can also enjoy the food there. Here are some examples.

Papa a la huanca na is sprinkled yellow cream sauce to the potato which sliced slightly into thick pieces. It taste simple, but very popular meal.

Cebiche is the meal of an onion, a sweet potato, a white fish, a cuttlefish, a kite, a lobster. Add all of them with dressing and lemon juice. It come out in one dish.

Encocado de mariscos is the meal of coconut milk and seafood. It is not dessert. it often come out in the husk of the coconut. I love coconuts! I should try it.

Picarones is the meal which sprinkled syrup to churros. It taste unique and is popular as dessert. sound nice for me.

Inca Kola is a Peruvian national soft drink. Also we can have it at McDonald there. However it does not taste like Coca-Cola. The color is yellow. Very Intersting!!

I can enjoy sightseeing by Bus, because there are not many trains. Also Taxi is a little bit dangerous for travelers.



OZE


I went to Oze from yesterday, and came back Yokohama just now. Oze is famous for keeping nature in Japan. I went there with people who live in Ryokuen-toshi and are interested in preserving the nature.

We walk in the nature and climb the mountain for 6 hours for 2 days. We woke up at 5:00am and started walking at 7:ooam today. The total distance we walked are 17 km. My legs and toes are hurting still, but I had great time at there. The air was fresh, and many kinds of flowers were very pretty.

In Oze, there are no car and trash can for nature. It was the most interesting thing that the men group called BOKKA-SAN carry over 100kg of foods for each man to log-houses in deep nature. (they walk about 10 hours a day)

I met them couple times,but they never even look at us. It is taboo thing what we talk to them because they are too hard to say even just "hello" to us.

I can not believe that I walked so long distance, because I hate walking or any sports. of course the walking in Oze made me tired, but satisfied.
I recommend you to go there, and feel real nature of Japan.

How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days


One movie I want to see isHow to Lose a Guy in 10 Days. Here is some reviews:

markandbeck from Mid America:"It is a piece of fluff romantic comedy familiar to viewers of old movies. The writing was occasionally witty, often funny, and sometime knee-slappingly hilarious, without degenerating into the completely silly."

Denny (season-4) from Mid America:"OK, to be honest i didn't expect much out of this movie,being a romantic comedy and all,but in the end i actually liked it, yes it's a chick flick ,and yes some things in it wouldn't really happen in reality,and the movie being so sweet and funny,the ending could have been a little better,but hey,these kind of movies always have something that we would like to be different,all in all i actually liked it,and enjoy watching it over and over again...

livingdeadgirl_13 from vancouver:" I thought this was a funny and charming romantic comedy. The lovely Kate Hudson gives a great performance, she was absolutely hilarious!



Based on the review, I want to see the movie even more! They says it is funny love comedy, and it sound like we will want to watch it many times. The only bad thing is that they says the ending is not in realistic at times. I guess it is good for especially women to watch from reading their reviws.
