Christmas party.

I had a Christmas party with exchange students at my dorm on Saturday. We enjoyed food, singing and dancing!^^ Before the party, my group made canape and another group made Chinese dumpling. We also had many cakes.

Can you find a 3D heart on this picture?

I became a big fan of Magic Eye! Do you know Magic Eye?
I think most of you, Kendai students saw the Magic Eye pictures on The Daily Yomiuri's 3rd page. If you don't know about it you should try on this page!

Try this! Can you find a 3D heart on this picture? (How to see 3D)

 
Did you see a 3D heart? If you did, how about trying more magic eye pictures?

Advent Calendar

Mr.Manning has an Advent Calender!

Children open one door each day from 1st December to Christmas. When we open the door of this calender we can get a chocolate. If you have a chance to visit his office, how about ask him this calender? You'll get a chocolate!?!?

My favorite ice cream

They are my favorite ice creams which are sold at Jomon Ice (縄文アイス) in Mukaihara, a town in the northern part of Hiroshima. This ice cream shop is famous for its unique ice cream which is called "Jomon". (They also have many flavors of ice cream. Green tea, Roasted green tea, Mango, Strawberry... )

Wild rice is in the "Jomon ice cream". The rice is crunchy and so delicious. "Jomon" is the most popular flavor in this shop.

You can buy them on Internet!!

Christmas in Monterey

I got pictures from my host father "Frank" who lives in Monterey California. Can you see the picture of the Christmas tree? It's almost same as tall as the ceiling and it has a lovely Hello Kitty's ornament! I think his daughter bought the Hello Kitty because she like this character so much.:) They'll celebrate Christmas with exchange students from foreign countries! They had a Christmas party with about 10 Chinese students at his home last year. They sung Christmas songs and had dinner. He showed me the pictures and videos when I stayed at his house in my summer vacation. I wanted to go the Christmas party but the cross cultural program in Kendai is in summer... But my host father sent me a Christmas presents-purse, pouch, chocolate and Christmas ornament! I always remember him and his family when I see something which they gave me. I want to go back to Monterey so much!!!









20th Birthday

I turned 20 years old 3 days ago! I was tired and I fell asleep at the moment I became 20. Some of my friends sent me e-mails at 0:00 but I didn’t notice… At lunch time, my teacher and friends celebrated my 20^th birthday at cafeteria. We, Prof. K’s seminar always celebrate the students’ birthday so it was my turn. After school, my family came to my dorm and I went to a Sushi restaurant with my family. My brother came back to Japan and we had birthday party together. The dishes were so delicious and I ate too much… The owner gave me cakes after dinner. They were also good. I’m so happy but I don’t want to age anymore! :P Haha!

Christmas dessert

Did you see Aiko's post?
The picture of a dessert which Aiko made looks so delicious and cute!^^

Christmas Party

We’re planning to hold a Christmas party in International dorm on 17^th December. It’s the first time to hold a Christmas party with exchange students! We had a party in May in this year and we made many kinds of food then. Korean students made Korean food and Chinese students made Chinese food. So we’ll make many kinds of traditional food again. In my group, there are 5 Chinese students so we’ll make Chinese food. We’ll also exchange Christmas presents. I can hardly wait to hold the party!
