A few days have passed since school began. Every day I'm busy because my house is so far from my school and I have to do my homework:( Then afer school I go to driving school or I work part-time job. Sometimes I feel tired but I spend days enjoyablly:)

By the way I want to put some pictures.It's one of my memories in summer♪



I wore Furisode for Seijin shiki. It is the most formal kimono for single women, and made of very fine, brightly colored silk. Furisode are distinguishable by their long sleeves, and the name literally translates as swinging (furi) sleeves (sode) - these sleeves average between 39 and 42 inches in length.

Seijin shiki (成人式) is the Japanese coming-of-age ceremony. It is held annually on Coming-of-Age Day (成人の日, seijin no hi), the second Monday in January. Maybe you think why did I wear Furisode in September!? If I wear Furisode on Coming-of-Age Day and go to Photo studio,I can't get memorial pictures because Photo studio is very crowded that day!That is the reason why I wore it in summer.

Anyway Kimono is sooo tight^^;but it is beautiful and vivid.I like Kimono:)

My mother's friend asked me to go to a cooking school in Hiroo.Of course I like eating,and also like cooking!I was glad to go to there.Most cooking schools in Japan have Japanese cooking teacher,but this school is not.Teachers in this school are peopel from another country.And every time a teacher changes.My cooking teacher of this time is Australian.Her name is Lisa.She is so beautiful.She sometimes comes on a TV commercial^^
We cooked Australian food"Toad in the hole"Lisa taught us how to cook it in English.It's hard for me to listen to because Her English is very fast.But I think that it is good opportunity for listening English.

"Toad~"was yummy.Someday I wanna cook it again~:)

Everyday I go to a driving school to get a license.Driving is difficult for me because roads are so narrow and there are many traffic signs in Japan^^; In the second picture,there are some signals in the textbook. Driving teacher said that in three counties-Japan,Switzerland,and・・・sorry,I forget.Maybe European country- getting a driving license is very tough:(











These are pictures of MOS BURGER.Sometimes I have lunch at MOS BURGER.Probably MOS BURGER is a fast-food restaurant chain that originated in Japan.Beverages are served in transparent glasses instead of paperboard cups. Most of the products listed upon its menu, including hamburgers and french fries, are made with fresh ingredients after the customer has ordered. The prices are higher than McDonald's.But,I think MOS BURGER is better than MsDonald's.Anyway the taste of MOS is gooood!
