The long spring vacation ended and I became a third-year student. I takes more classes than when I was a second-year student.

I went to Okinawa with my friends a few days before. The weather there is like summer,so we could swim in the sea.

We used two rental cars to visit some sightseeing spots. In my car, the music of Judy and Mary were put on. The melody is still in my head.

I had used the mobile phone produced by the company "au" for five years, but  I canceled it. I bought a new one prodeuced by the company" Vodaphone".

There is one atrractive point to me. Vodaphone in Japan started the system of fixed sum. You can talk and send e-mail to only one person you chose as much as youy want if you add only 300yen to your monthly charge.

I think I will get used to using my new mobilephone soon.

We have no classes in the afternoon and tomorrow is weekend, so Friday is happy day.

I found the bar in my university and  went there with my friends. I was surprised that there is a bar in university.  I drunk a soft drink because it is still two o’clock p.m.

My homestay family lives near port in Tasmania, so I can see beautiful scene every day. Yesterday I found a very big liner. I heard that it brings many people to a voyage around the world! If I had much money, I could have got on it… 

I have just finished preparing for my baggage. I am leaving Japan for Tasmania tomorrow. This is my first visit to Tasmania and I will stay there for a month. I am looking forward to meeting my hostfamily.

In Japan, Coming of Age ceremonies are usually hold on January. I attended the ceremony last month. There is a custom that most women who attend it wear furisode : traditional piece of Japanese clothing. I wore red one.                                                        

After the ceremony, the alumni association was hold, so I could meet my old friends again and enjoy talking with them.

I would like to know how people celebrate on Coming of Age Day.
