This blog is the work of the Freshman English Communication class at the University of Shimane. This is a learning blog, so there are bound to be errors, confusion, and occasional misunderstandings. This is all part of the process... This is the first time for many of these students to write in English for anyone other than their teachers, so please be kind. ;^)

Hi! I wrote almost all about me!
My name is Mari Hasegawa. Please call me Mari! My
birthday is October 31. As you know, October 31 is Halloween! I will join the Halloween
party with my dormitory friends. But I don’t know the party will actually be
held. Anyway, I’m looking forward to the party and my birthday! I’m from
Yonago, Tottori prefecture. And there are five people and one pet in my family.
There are grandfather, father, mother, and younger brother. Pet is dog called
Yu-ta. Look at the picture! He is Yu-ta. He joined my family when I was 14
years old. He is cool but sometimes his actress is very crazy. If I give bread
for him, he doesn’t eat and he buries the bread in the ground. I don’t know why
he buries the bread in the ground. Because now I live in Hamada city, Shimane
prefecture, I can’t see him. I miss him! Next, I want to talk about my favorite
foods. My favorite fruit is orange. I want to eat orange all season. And I like
an omelet with a filling of
ketchup‐seasoned fried rice, too. Japanese called it Omurice. I sometimes make it and
I want to cook more delicious. Last, I talk about my school life. I am a University
of Shimane student. I belong to volley ball club and tennis club. I haven’t
play tennis and volley ball ever. But I play them very interesting! I study English
and Chinese. And I must study more hard because I want to go abroad and
communicate with other country people. That’s all.

Hi Mari! Happy early birthday haha! Aww, that's too bad you can't see Yu-ta since you're busy with school. My family in California has 3 really big dogs and every time go to see them it's always so much fun. Omurice is a really popular food here in Hawaii too. Wow both english and chinese?! That must be really difficult. Do you want to study abroad in China or America? Maybe Hawaii haha?
ReplyDeleteThank you for your comment!You have 3 big dogs, don't you??I want see your dogs!I want to go America next summer.And I want to go Hawaii someday!!!
DeleteHi Mari! Happy early birthday! Only two more days, are you excited? I hope you have fun at the Halloween party! Are you dressing up in a costume? Yu-ta looks really cute and friendly! I also have three dogs, but I think they are smaller than Yu-ta, and they eat a lot.
ReplyDeleteWhen I went to Japan I tried omurice and it was delicious! I also am studying Chinese, but I don't know very much. It's difficult for me to speak Chinese because of the tones, is it the same for you? Good luck with your studies!
Thank you for your comment, Stacie Shinagawa!Of course my birthday is day after tomorrow!Thank you.I probably won't dress up in a costume...;( Do you have three dogs, too??I want see your dogs!Omurice is verrrrrry delicious, aren't it???I just begin to study Chinese, so I am studying about pronunciation and greetings words.It is difficult for me about tones, too.I want to more and more study!
DeleteHi Mari! Nice to meet you,
ReplyDeleteYour dog is really cute! It makes me miss my dogs very much. I also love Omurice! I eat it whenever I get the chance, but that hardly comes around. :(
And its amazing that you're studying both English and Chinese! Are you studying Mandarin Chinese? It may be difficult at some parts when learning things like 了 and other such grammar points, but if you're learning English this well, then I'm sure you can do it!
If you ever need help with English, please ask me! I'm always willing to help. And Happy Early Birthday!
