It has been about 2 months since I came here.
until recently,I couldnt feel my growth of English.but last night I've got I could understand what tv's saying than before.I was surprised.maybe my listening is getting better.
but now I havent been to language school for 2 weeks.but from May,Im going to new school and taking one method that is called callan method.this is from UK.in this method students cant talk any other students,just talk to teacher.and listening listening listening...so maybe my speaking and listening will get better,I hope so.
and my part time job is starting from tomorrow....cafe? dont ask me!lol recently I've been to just training 4 times!actually this is no pay!can u believe that?that's why Im block in aus...damn it!but I didnt wanna work in such as Japanese restaurants.there are many Japanese restaurants that many Japanese are working in Sydney.but if I work such a place,I have to use Japanese.I can use English only customers.it doesnt make sense Im here.
when I go to take an interview at Japaresu I found a very pretty gelato shop!and suddenly I decided to submit my CV.lol then I talked to manager and I left my CV. a few days later manager gave me an e-mail like this ‘Thanks for coming in to apply for a job at our store.I was pleased to meet a nice person with pretty smile.”lol when I saw this e-mail,I quickly called him to say thank u.I was so happy!but... actually it was hard work than I anticipated.it really difficult to scoop ;( not just scoop!so...I havent known I can work there yet ;( when I scoop gelatos in this morning,I thought what am I doing in aus?I just wanna study...Im always apt to think too much about something...I wanna turn to another topic!lol
nowadays,it has turned getting colder,especially in the morning and night.I dont like cold climate,thats why I chose Aus.lol but now Im thinking about this choice was right.hahaha... but Im doing well from now !my dream is dreaming in English.actually,I hav a ameblo in English that Im sometimes writing. but nobody knows.haha
anyway,today no! yesterday was William&Kate's wedding day!that was marvelous!surprisingly,same as my parents!haha Congratulations!!
Maybe about 2 weeks ago,I met a German guy in elevator which in my school.
I had never talked to him. but he said to me like this, Are u Japanese?
yeah!
what exactly?
Fukuoka!
maybe he wanted me to say Tokyo or Osaka or Kyoto such famous cities for foreigner.
and he asked me, what is your facebook?so I wrote my name in his notebook.
several days later,he aplyed for my facebook as a friend.
and today we talked in chat.
he said he can speak 5 languages.it is not so rare in many countries.
but I always feel jealous this.
he can speak German,French,Turkish,Kurdish,English.
but he said,English is my worst language!
but when I taked to him,his grammmar and prononceation was very nice.
maybe his level is high,and he also said to me,
English is a only language that I learned in school.
after all, natural method is the best to study. I know.
but now I don't have so much opportunity to speak.
only school,that's why it makes me wanna go to school more,
but Easter is coming next week?so maybe I'll start school 3 weeks later?!
so study hard by myself?
I'm tired today,I left my resumes 3 work places.
one is Japanese ,two is local..I wasn't going to local jobs today.
but when I lost my way on the way to Japanese workplace,
I found a pretty jellart shop which in Chinatown and banskin robbin.
so suddenly my mind changed and I talked with manager.
but work time of Japanese really suit me.
Actually,I wanna work in local,
but it should be difficult :(
anyway,I don't wanna be Japanese neat in AUS!lol
so if possible I wanna work as soon as I can.
today I finished my school,miss my friends and a kind teacher ;(
It has been 6 weeks since I came Sydney.
I haven't written this blog for a long time.
you know, I'm lazy person.haha
today I was going to look apartment which is ownroom in Bondi Junction,
American,Irish,Ditch,Japanese were live in there.
that was good oppertunity to speak English.
but I was taken an e-mail
Sorry,we're just decided a newcomer.
So I had co choice,damn it!
so I looked for another one.
that apartment had 25 people who were different nationalities.
but that apartment didn't have ownrooms.
and rooms were filthy.
maybe I won't be able to put up with such apartment.
I wish I could throw away my Japanese mind.
but I disperately prefer own room ;(
what do u think?
I need to throw away this feeling?
or is it common,I don't need to change?
It doesn't make sence I came overseas?
OK.
It's better I don't care about there things.haha
Just now I found a ownroom in city!!!
It's very convenient to commute!
Of course,I don't need to go surburbs.
and nomally,ownroom that's in city is at least $250～400 per week.
but that apartment is $185.
now, my flat costs 155 per week.
but I have to buy ticket to go to the city.
this ticket is $41 per week!!
it's soooo expensive!
I always miss Chikapasu !lol
moreover It takes about 30 minutes by train to go to the city from this surburb.
and I can save my commuting time!
that flat has only Taiwanese and Oz old man!
It is English environment!
So when I found this apartment,immedeiately I called him.
My English is still terrible!
but recently,I got used to call. it's fun for me.fufu
but today, finally I confused Oz english on the phone when I lost my way on the way to a flat.
He said to me,
"Could u come to 3 hundred Aight?"
Aight?
What is Aight?????
I thought it meant 300-I
but it didn't make sense.
3 hundrer Aight!!!
Sorry I can't understand what you're saying!!!!!!
Aight?????
"BEFORE NINE!!!!!"
lol
it was actually eight.
so I said ike this on purpose with irritation.
Ahhhhhhhhh! Eeeeight!
anyway, I'm seeing the new flat tomorow evening!
and I have to study more.
recently I always think about this,
As this rate my English won't be improved!!!!!!!
I often see people who are staying AUS for a long time, but their english is still terrible.
it's horrible!
owww....
so tomorrow I'm studying at library with Joon.
Seeya!

I beat the price of the earing down to $15 from $18.
A clerk of the shop accepted my request easily!haha

but I laughed soooo much with him.
I want to write,but it'll be so long sentences ;(
today,my language school started and I took a paper test and speaking test.
