Three Day Weekend

Three Day Weekend Activities   
The Edmonton Heritage  Festival was held this past weekend.  Many of the students attended.  Naozumi volunteered at the Japanese pavilion. 



Urara

On Monday, I went to a farm. I saw a pony. I explored the farm. It was exciting!

私のホストマザーはとても料理が上手でぶくぶくに太って帰ります!
あとキッズに苦戦してますがとても楽しいです。
4週間弱楽しむぞー!


Natsu

On Sunday, I went horseback riding at my host mother’s brother’s house.  It was my first time and very fun.

授業はとても難しくついていくのに必死ですが、たくさんの友達ができました。ホストマザーはとても優しく、ホストブラザーはとてもおもしろいです。
あと少ししかないのはとても悲しいです。帰りたくないです!

Naozumi

On Friday, I changed houses.  I went to Neil’s house.  I was so tired but I am comfortable and Neil’s daughters are very cute.
On Saturday, I went to the Edmonton Heritage Festival. I enjoyed it.
There were many countries represented at the heritage festival, so I was happy.
On Sunday, I went shopping in the afternoon.
On Monday I volunteered at the Heritage Festival.  It was very hard work but a good time.
The Japanese food was good.  I cooked yakitori chicken at the Japanese pavilion.
We sold out of all the food. 

自分は家をこの一週間に三件も移動して、とても寂しさ と忙しさに追われた日々が続いたけど新しい発見やいろんなところに行った喜びと楽しさでいっぱいです。できればカナダに残りたいとおもっていますが残れないですよねーカナダのすばらしさは伝えたくても伝えきれないほどのものです。柔道もやって楽しくやっていますこの前カナダの−100キロ級のチャンピオンとやって格の違いを見せられました!
やっぱりこっちの柔道家は強いし自分は絶対に勝つという気持ちじゃないとけがしたりしますからすごく気をつけてやっています。友達やホストファミリーの英語の聞き取りとしゃべる力も上がったような気がします。前よりものすごくしゃべっています。
こっちに来るとやっぱり太ります。勉強は今以上に頑張って行きたいです
帰ったらふとっていること間違いなしです。料理もとてもおいしいです。
