"Essay"3: My University life ~ It's hard but important!~

I will talk about my university life. My university life is very hard for me because I have a lot of things to do such as doing blogs, some homework, movie reviews, book reviews and so on. In addition to these, I take a course of a certified travel consultant and it also gives me many homework. I do a part-time job in Hikarinomori's Japanese soba restaurant in about four or five days a week. After the part-time job, I back home and do a blog. Actually, I have to do homework and study of the course but I'm always sleepy at the time. That is why I have little time to do these things.


I think now, sophomore is more harder than when I was a freshman. It is more harder than before, especially, required subject such as writing and reading and so on. I think now, I didn't study hard when I was a freshman. Then I thought that if I do these hard works everyday, I will be able to build up my strength. And in addition to this, I think I will be able to manage well to find time to doing these things. This is very important ability for the future when I go out in to the society. I will tell you about what I challenged before and what I do now in university.

In December, I participated the English Speech Contest in this university. I participated a English Recital Contest in Kikuchi County when I was a junior school student with my friend and we took second place. I was very glad to this and I think it was a grate experience for me to gain confidence. I remembered the experience, so I decided to participate the contest. I was very nervous to speech in the presence of a large company but my experience help me, so I could speech in a loud voice. Then I could win the victory! The experience gives me more confidence.

In this summer, I am going to go New Zealand and study English and communication. I agonized over whether or not to go study training for abroad before. Then I thought it's very good experience for me to study other country, so I decided to go there. I plan that I will study the things I can't study in Japan, such as culture, life style, environmental protection and communication style. I went to Australia because of my home stay when I was a junior school student but it is only two weeks, so I want to study them more. I hope this experience will give me English strength.

There are a lot of things to do now and I feel hard and sometimes I don't want to do anything,but I think these experience helps me in the future or someday I confuse something. That is why I think I will try to be filial to my experience and chance. I will study more harder than before and I will challenge in everything I can do because the way my feels will become my vitality. I want my university life more fruitful, so I will do my best!!

My Golden Week Plan

My Golden Week plan is that I'll go to part-time job all day in two days. And I'm going to go shopping to Curea and watching movies with my family with having dinner. I wanted to travel somewhere but my sister is member of soft-tennis club and the team always practices hard, so she has to practice every day. That is why I can't travel. I have to study too because I can't do these because of my part-time job.

Yesterday I was very very very tired because I did a part-time job all day. There were so many customer because yesterday was beginning the Golden Week. There were few person who does part-time work. It's only I and new member of part-time worker who's name is Tailor. ...Yes, he is Canadian man and he is not very good at Japanese yet. I have no time to teach him how to serving customer so he didn't know what to do. I lead the way customer to a table, took orders, carried dishes, made tea, poured the tea, punched the princes into the cash register, cleaned the restaurant and did a payment. It's really hard for me because it's not enough person. My head was reeling. I was very tired yesterday so I want to rest today!!!!
