My hobby is skiing. When winter comes every year, I go to Canada to ski. My father likes skiing, so he often takes me to ski. When I was 10 years old, I skied for the first time. I couldn't ski very well at first, so I fell again and again. But Now, I could ski very well. I could jump and turn.

I have a thing I dislike. It is alcohol. I loved to drink alcohol before, but I dislike alcohol because I have gotten drunk, and I couldn't have walked straight. I have not drunk since then.

My favorite candy

I like three candies. They are Koume, Haichu and Puccho. I often eat them. Koume tastes like ume, so it is very sour. However, many Japanese love it. Haichu is so chewing. It has many kind of tastes, for example, strawberry, grape, apple, peach, and so on. I like green apple the best. Puccho is strange candy. It contains gumi, so the texture is so fun. It also has much kind of tastes, for example, coke, soda, grape, and so on. Haichu and Puccho have special tastes to local place. Okinawa makes pineapple taste. Hokkaido makes melon taste. Kumamoto makes Banpeiyu taste. It is a special product of Kumamoto. However, I have never eaten them, so I try to eat them.

Good and bad ponts about summer

I think good point about summer is there are a lot of things to do only summer. For example, swimming in the sea, wearing a yukata, summer festival, eating shaved ices and watermelons, and so on. I especially like fireworks. They are very beautiful. However, I think summer has some bad points. First, it is hot. Kumamoto is very hot in summer, so I sweat and feel so bad. Second, there are many bags. I don't like bags. Also, typhoons come in late summer. Typhoons bring storong wind and rain. When typhoons come, breakout sometimes happen. Typhoons are very troublesome.

How I study during the vacation

I think summer vacation is the best time to study. Summer vacation for Kumamoto Gakuen University students is about two months. I thnk it is so long vacation, so I overcome my weak point. I want to increase English vocabulary. I have books of English words, so I want to memorize 5 words in the book a day. Also, my listening ability is poor, so I try to listen to western music because I want to enjoy studying English. I want to be able to hear English conversation between native speakers. And more, I study for TOEIC, and I want to get high score.
