My Spring Vacation

    I'm writing about something to do during spring vacation.
    First, I worked part-time very hard. I work as a waitress at a family restaurant. I usually work in evening, but I sometimes worked at noon because I don't have to go to school during spring vacation. I was not very busy from Monday to Friday, but I was very very busy on Saturday and Sunday. There were a lot of customers on weekend. Between taking orders, serving dish and clearing the tables, I was very busy and tired.
    Second, I went to driving school. I had wanted to go there before, I finally went there because I had enough time. I was so nervous when I drove a car for the first time. It is difficult for me to drive a car, but thanks to my instructor, I have driven better and better. All staff and instructors of the driving school were very kind, so I enjoyed commuting to the driving school. I have to receive official approval on Saturday. If I pass it, I can graduated from the driving school. After that, I will go to license center, and I will have to take an examination to get a car license. If I get a car license, I want to go for a drive!
   Lastly, I cleaned my room. My room is in an awful mess, so my family said, "Your room looked like a pigpen!" I was shocked to hear what they said, so I decided clean my room. I tidied up clothes and  textbooks. I picked up trash, and I vacuum-cleaned the room. I changed to a different set of clothing while I cleaned the room. I hope to keep my room ordered!

Journal B

I was born in 1992. Because my mother worked at the hospital, I was left with the day-care center near the hospital from 1992 to 1995. I always played with Koharu. She is my first friend. When I was 3 years old, I moved to another day nursery. I played a lot there every day. I was on good terms with friends and teachers. One of my memories at the day nursery is staging a play. We played “Momotaro.’’ I act the part of dog. Another memory is a sports day. We didn’t only have a race and an obstacle race but also perform Japanese drums. I entered Yoshino elementary school in 1999. I remember picking raspberries and eating them on my way home from school. When I was 4th grade, I entered a basketball club. I enjoyed playing it with members. When I was 5th grade, we took care of larvae of fireflies. After that, we stocked the river with them. Moreover, we set up a big fish tank at the entrance of school to reproduce the river near the school. In 2005, I graduated the elementary school and entered Yoshino junior high school. When I was 1st grade, we camped in Aso. We climbed Daikanbo, cooked dinner by ourselves and enjoyed a campfire. When I was 2nd grade, I went to Okinawa on a school trip. I went to Churaumi Aquarium, made a glasswork, and so on. When I was 3rd grade, I became a chairperson of books and culture committee, so I manage a school festival. After the school festival, I studied very hard. I took entrance examinations from January to March. However, I failed the examination of my preference. In 2008, I graduated from junior high school and entered KGU Fuzoku high school. I was nervous at first, but I made many friends soon. I went to Kyoto and Tokyo on a school trip. It was very happy to go to Tokyo Disney Land. I met Minney Mouse and Schneewittchen. I took picture with them. When I was 3rd grade, I last played a basketball match. Our team was defeated, but I felt a sense of achievement. After I retired the basketball club, I studied hard. In 2011, I graduated from high school and entered Kumamoto Gakuen University. I started to work part-time job in May. Now, I study English and have a good time with my friend.
