My Life at MFWI

Today is May 9th. We will leave here on May 22nd so we have only 2 weeks. I'm going to look back my living here in MFWI. Before I came here, actually I didn't want to come, because I didn't want to leave in Japan. However, before leaving Japan, I decided one goal that to learn many things about America. After we arrived in Spokane and started life at MFWI, it was very hard for me to live here. One biggest reason that I felt so is classes. Sometimes I felt that classes are too difficult for me. In addition, we had a lot of homework everyday. Honestly speaking, I often wanted to escape from this hard reality life, but whenever I felt so, I thought that these hard works are all for me, certainly my English skill will be up.

I had not only hard experiences but also wonderful experiences. For example, we went to Seattle and East coast, I could see many famous places there and also we visited some schools in Spokane. we could talk with American students. Sometimes the students couldn't understand my English and I couldn't understand their English. However, to talk with Americans was good experience for me.When we went to Gonzaga University and talked with ESL students, there was one thing that I found and learned, they were very positive atiitude for class so they spoke actively. I was impressed because their class was different with our class. I thought that I have to do like them, which means I should speak English more. Even if I don't have confidence as I speak positively, I can communicate with many people. I learned many things as I was living here. That is not only English but also live by myself and friendship. Finally, I want to thank to one person who was supported and helped me every time during life in MFWI. I couldn't keep up without her. Thank you!!I have two weeks until I leave here so I don't want to have any regrets. Do my best!!
