There are many universities and faculties in Japan, so we can study what we want to know and interesting things. For example, foreign language, nursing, teaching, and so on.
I study English in Kumamoto Gakuen University, because I want to be a flight attendant in the future. The job of flight attendant needs English very much because they have to communicate with many country’s people. I thought that I will major in English in university. Now, there are many English classes in university. For example, it is reading, speaking, writing, listening, and so on. These four skills are very important for study English. In these, I am especially poor at listening and speaking skills, so I recently watch foreign movies and speak with overseas students in English as often as possible. Someday, I want to be able to communicate with many country’s people and realize my dream to become a flight attendant.
My friend studies nursing in university because she want to be a nurse and do a volunteer in foreign country in the future. She studies not only nursing but also biology, chemistry, mathematic and so on. She looks so hard very much because there are many things that they have to memorize.
Also, there are university students who study other things. For example, some people study economics. They study about finance and bookkeeping and do on. Most of these students aim to be a bank clerk and officer in the future. Other, some people study music. Most of these students aim to be a famous musician. For this, they study music very hard in university every day.
Like this, there are many faculties, so we can choose a faculty that we want to study and interesting thing. And we can aim to realize our dream, so we are lucky!!

Essay 2-03a: language learning stories
I want to write about my language learning stories. I have studied four languages. These are English, Chinese, French and Korean. It is very difficult to study languages but I can know the country's many things. So, I will write detail of my language learning stories.
First, I want to write about English. When I was elementary school, I studied English first time in "Kumon". From then, I am interested in English. And I thought that I want to use English in my future job. So, I choosed Hitsuyukan high school because threre is international course in the high school. In there, we could study English more hard. And I went to Australia when I was secound grade. In there, I had to use English all the day. It's very difficult for me to comunicate with people by English. In there, I knew that I don't have enough skills to comunicate with people by English. I decided to study English more hard. But, I could learn not only English but also australian culture. These were very interesting things. So, I wanted to know foreign cultures more. For that, I thought that I have to study English more hard. And now, in university I study English. I can't use English very well yet. But I don't never give up!!
Second, I want to write about Chinese. When I was high school student, I had chance to study Chinese one year. I liked this lesson very much. It was little easy to study chinese because Chinese use Kanji too and similar to English's grammar. But it was hard to pronounce Chinese. Our teacher was very well and he teaches many things about China. When he was university student, he went to China to study Chinese. So, he knew many things about China. I liked to hear his talk very much. I thought that I want to visit China too. And in the future I want to study Chinese again.
Third, I want to write about French. When I entered KGU, we had to choose second language. I choosed French because I thought that French is very cool. But, this idea was mistake for me. It was very difficult for me. French grammar and words were all difficult. Until last class, I didn't understand well.
Finally, I want to write about Korean. When I was junior high school, I liked to watch Korean drama and movie. I watched many dramas and movies with my mother. So, I was really interested in Korean and wanted to study Korean. But, I didn't have chance to study Korean. This year, I could have a chance to study Korean. I took a Korean class. It's very interesting but little difficult. But, Korean is similar to Japanese because Korean and Japanese are same grammar and sometime there are same phrases. And our teacher is very funny. He is Korean but his Japanese is very well. I thought that I want to speak foreign language like him.
I have studied these languages. But, I don't speak these language well. So, I have to study more hard. And some day, I want to have enough skills to comunicate with foreign people.

About my high school days
I have many memories of high school days. Especially, school club and homesty in Australia are the best unforgettable for me.
I belonged to Japanese Drum club. It is a one of japanese traditional music. We performanced it in many places. For example, Kumamoto castle, opening ceremony, "Hinokuni festival", other some summer festival and so on. So, we practiced every day. After our performance end, some audience cry. We had a very good time in there. I think that I want to continue it, but we don't have enogh time to practice now. Someday, I want to play the Japanese drum with same member.
I took part in homestay program in Ausralia. I was looking forward to this from I entered high school. My high school has a sister school in Australia, so applicant can take part in this homestay program. I could experience many things, not only good things also bad things. But, I had a great time in there. We went shopping and surfing in Gold Coast where is mecca of surfing and so on. In school, we learn not only English but also Australian culture. I was interested in aborigine's culture.
It was difficult to communicate with host family and friends in English. I thought that I want to communicate with fluent English someday, so I decided to study English more hard in university.

English web site review
I checked two English web sites. First are Anne Hathaway’s backgrounds and her history and so on. Next is New Year’s Day’s many things.
At first is Anne Hathaway. She is actress. I like her very much because she acts on my favorite movie. That is “The Devil Wears PRADA”. This movie shows one woman’s success story. After I watch this movie, I can feel drive for something. So, I decided to check Anne’s t things on web site.
She was born in 12 November 1982 so she is 27 years old. And she was born in Brooklyn, New York, USA. When I read this, I felt that Anne is very urban people. Because she is from New York!! It’s so cool.
Her father is lawyer and mother is stage actress Kate McCauley Hathaway. I thought that Anne grew up looking her mother, so Anne became actress. And I thought her family is very rich.
She said her trade mark is smile. I think so too. Her smile is so nice. We can see that on her movie and so on.
Another her famous movie is “The Princess Diaries”. I watched this movie too. I thought that this movie’s Anne is very cute!! But I like “The Devil Wears PRADA”. This movie’s Anne is very cool and fashionable.
Next is about New Year’s Day. After I watched the websites, I could know many things about New Year’s Day. I knew very interesting things!!
First I knew that some tradition of New Year’s Day. First is making resolution. This tradition dates back to the early Babylonians. For example, popular modern resolutions are promising to lose weight or quitting smoking. But, the early Babylonian’s most popular resolution was to return borrowed farm equipment. Next tradition is the tournament of Roses Parade. This tradition dates back to 1886. In that year, the member of the Valley Hunt Club decollated their carriages with flowers. It celebrates the ripening of the orange crop in California.
And I knew the song “Auld Lang Syne”. This song is sung at the stroke of midnight in almost every English speaking country. And Robert Burns wrote this song in the 1700’s. “Auld Lang Syne” means “old long ago” or “the good old days”. I didn’t know this song and listen, so I am very interesting in this song!!
I could know many things about Anne Hathaway and New Year’s Day. It was little hard for me to understand English web sites. But I could barely know it.
