My host family

  Recently I thought about my host family. While I stayed in America, they took care of me and kind to me. My host mother is a single mother and she is very busy, because she had two jobs. When I got up time and my bed time, she often isn't at home. But when she had a time, she took me to a lot of places. I went to free concert which was hold in near shopping center and art festival in down town and go-cart game with her family. The free concert was very good! The live performance of the guitar and song were very very good and moved. And then, free tidbits and water were distributed. The free tidbits taste was so good. Art festival also fun too! I want to buy  picture and goods, but they were very expensive so I couldn't buy it. But someday if I had a lot of money and had a good own house, I would want to go there and buy them! Go-cart game was very thrilling. My host mother's nephew participated the game. He was very good at drive and very fast. He won the race. At that time, I met my host grand father for the first time. Grand father is gentle and talked me with slow English, so I could understand his English. I exchanged greetings with her family. They were very kind me and I miss them, I want to see them again.
 

   My host mother has a boyfriend. And I often went to his house with her and her family. We ate dinner, went to a big lake to swim, went shopping with his daughter, did a campfire and so on. He is good at cooking and he made us a delicious dinner with my host mother. My favorite his hand made dishes is a grill chicken. It was so good, and I want to eat again. One time, he came for me and while I rode the car, I asked him a lot of questions. He likes travelling abroad and he often goes to foreign countries for his job, so he knows a lot of things about foreign countries and traveling abroad. I like travel too and I'm interested in his talk. He told me his reminiscence of travelling abroad. He likes Italia the best, and told me Italian good place. If I had a chance to go to Italia, I would want to go there. H asked me, "What do you want to be in the future? and I answered. He said "You have a good dream, you can do it" This words made my happy, and I thought that I have to study hard!

   I have 2 host brothers and 2 sisters. Oldest brother lives in a neighboring state, so I met him only one time. He is very cheerful men and a popular person.

   Second brother is very shy but he is kind. He likes Japanese anime and music, he told me his favorite Japanese song. But I didn't know the details about Japanese anime, so I couldn't realize who they were. But I was happy, because American student was interested in Japanese culture. He often came for my after my school finished. And while I rode his car, I talked with him.

   Oldest sister is very funny and sexy girl. She is younger than me but she looks older than me. She took me lake which is near our house, it took 20 minutes. I went to the lake 2 times. When I swam, she showed me her handstand in the lake. And I tried it too. We enjoyed it together. And she took me farm festival by her drive. she likes animals very much and she is good at riding a horse, she has a own horse. The farm festival was very fun and I bought a necklace. When I entered the shop, a man came and asked me, "where are you from?" and I asked, "I'm from Japan" Then he said, "Oh! I have been to Japan and last month I visited in Kumamoto!" So I was very surprised and we got along well. And he showed a necklace and offered the necklace. But first he said the necklace's price was very expensive for me, so I bargained with the shopkeeper and got the necklace for 7 dollar. When I tried to beat down the price, my host sister watched and laughed. To beat down the price was my first time experience. It was very fun! And we were drew our likeness in the festival. The my likeness was very bad face, and very funny. So oldest sister looked it and laughed. But it is my good memory.

   Youngest sister is very very kind me. She has a lot of good friends, and I went to many place with them. She took me many places, for example I went to a baseball game, movie theater, her friends house and shopping with she and her friends. I like baseball very much and many of her church friends like baseball too. So she invited me for their baseball tour. I went to the game with more than 20 people. I could make many friends at the time. The game was lost, but very exciting game!! I want to watch the major leagues again! I tried to movie which was all English, and the movie, Bat man, which has 3 stories and I had never watched the bat man series. So I didn't understand the story at first, but my host sister told me the previous story while we watched it. So I could understand about the bat man. She always kind me, whenever I had some difficulty, she always helped me out of it. When I went to her friends house, I watched real fireplace! and American big house. There were movie theater in the basement and billiards place, a lot of game, dart and very big yard. At night, we laid at full length on the lawn and watched movie. The sky was very beautiful and I have never forget the sky. The movie was so funny and sister also explained me the story. I like her kindness. I often spent time with youngest sister. We played wii which is dancing game and ate big ice cream at midnight and made pizza and watched Korean drama, tried to face pack and we took many pictures. Every day we made a lot of memories.



   My host family has 2 pets, a dog and a cat. Dog is very gentle and clever. Cat is king of house. When I slept, he came my bed many times. And she always aimed my breakfast. It was my funny memory. They are very lovely family. I want to have pet too someday.

   I went to America and experienced home stay, I could meet wonderful family and a lot of good friends. I have never forget this great memories. I love them and I miss them too! Thank you!
