Summer


This summer, I went back my hometown, Oita by train. I went to hot spring many times. Oita has many hot springs. I went to there with my sister and my friends. I could very relax. And I met many friends. I saw my friends in high school days after a long separation. I felt very happy. We went to the sea by friend’s car. The sea was very beautiful. The day was very hot, so we stayed the shade and ate a shaved ice. I went shopping and I bought new clothes and shoes. My mother gave me new bag. The color is dark brown and very cute. I was very happy because I wanted new bag.

I was taken the picture for Coming of Age Day. I wore long-sleeved kimono. The kimono is old but very beautiful and cute. My mother wore it when she was my age. And my grand mother wore it too when she was my age. The kimono is family treasures handed down from generation to generation. So the kimono is very important things for my family. I was very happy because I wore it for the first time.

I stayed there for two weeks. When I returned to Nagoya from Oita, I ride on bullet train. The train was very crowed. So I could not sit. I had to stand. Many people smoked. I hate smoking because smoking is not good for the health. The train was a hell to me. I got tired from the 4 hours stand.

In Nagoya, I stayed my home with my friend many times. We played TV game because I bought “wii”. It’s very interesting. Many friends visited my home to play that game. We had a good time. And we had a barbecue in the park. We played volleyball and shot off fireworks at the bank. The day was very hot but very nice day to me.

I went to driving school to get a driver’s license. I drove car for the first time. I was very nervous but I enjoy driving. My teacher is very kind. So I can ask him about driving. I don’t get a driver’s license yet. I want to get it soon to go drive with my friend.

This summer, I took many pictures. I want to process it soon. I could enjoy this summer vacation.
