My great homestay

I would like to write about my homestay life. I was worry about start the new life in the U.S. because it is my first time to study abroad and when I arrived here I didn't have any place to live in. I went to International student Service Office and asked them "I don't have any place to live in, so could you help me to find the place to live in." They recommended to me homestay. Actually, I didn't want to be homestay student because I heard from my friends "It's ganble!" If I would stay with nice people. It's great,but if the hostfamily is not nice, I have to suffered hard time. As a result, I won the ganble! I'm really lucky. My hostmom is really nice person and she is good at cooking. She everyday makes me delicious food. The food are not only American's meel but also Mexican, Italian or any kinds of food. The most surprising things is we have many common favor. For example, when I and my hostmom went to shopping, we chose same fragrance.When we went to restauran we ordered same kind of food. I think that's amazing. Moreover, her sons , their girlfriend and their children are so nice. I'm really grad to meet my hostfamily and stay with them.

A memorable event

A memorable event.
The most memorable event for me is a school trip. When I was 17 years old, I went to Kyushu with my classmates. It was an only one week but I had a lot of great experiences on this trip. There were really great. On this trip, our class performed a dance in front of other classes. That was the most memorable event on the school trip. We practiced the dance about 2 weeks. We asked our teacher to give us the class time to practice the dance.She said "ok," but she was really surprised. I won’t forget her face when we asked her about that. Our school uniform was a really traditional one, so we made a decision to wear the girl’s school uniform on the stage even people who were a guy. It was strange, but it was really funny! We did a great job performing the dance. It was hard to practice because we didn’t have enough time to do that. Many people were busy with in some kind of sports club team or something. It was difficult for us to make time. However, we wanted to our performance to be good, so we made time to practice our dance. After we arrived Kyusyu, we made a time to practice. Actually, our class already had a great relationship each other. Also, my classmates were very nice. I think it worked well to perform the dance. I probably won’t forget these things forever. That’s all.
