my Christmas/New Year vacation plans


In Japan Christmas is a holiday for friends to get together, while the New Year is a family holiday, when people go to shrines and temples. In the US Christmas is a family holiday, when many people go to church even if they only go twice a year, and families get together for a Christmas dinner and exchange presents. In my family we usually have a Japanese New Year's Day but an American Christmas.

This year, though, I'll be in Japan for Christmas, but in the US for New Years'. I'll have an American Christmas, with a Christmas cake and our annual lamb family dinner, in Japan, but I won't be able to have a Japanese New Year's in the States. I'll be getting ready for the American Historical Association's annual conference, trying to get over jet lag and see a few friends (and do some research in the UCLA Research Library).



Anyway, that's why I won't be there for the next class on January 8th. I am looking forward to reading your reactions to "Faust" (or "Much Ado about Nothing" if the Faust video doesn't play correctly) here on the blog, though. I'll be checking in every once in a while to see how you are doing. Don't forget to post about what you are doing during the break, and don't forget your writing assignments. I forgot to mention that we won't have class on the 15th because of the Center Test that weekend, but I'll see you all on the 22nd for sure.

Have a nice vacation, and keep studying English.

Vacation Plan

This winter vacation, I'm going to take part in a year-end party of seikyo.
Many people who have somethig to do with seikyo will attend and many entertainments are going to be put on. I'm looking forward to it!!

Also, I'm going to go home and meet my friends. I can have relaxing time there.

However, I have a lot of homework (^^;) Probably, I can't relax enough (^^;)

my vacation plan

I want to do something in this vacation,but this vacation is only two weeks,so I can not do everythings.So I want to do two things in this vacation.

One thing is going to Tokyou and see friends of high school and carmming school.Some friends of carmming school is still in carmming school and study hard,so I want to buy lucky charms and give its to them.

The other thing is winter sport.I bought a snowboard last Wedenesday,so I want to go Ajigasawa and snowboard.I'm in a snowcountry, I want to enjoy winter sport.

Vacation plan

My vacation plan is to spend time on a hobby. Even though it's a long vacation, it isn't done in particular. So time is spent on a hobby.

It has become cold, so street basketball is resting. I'm listening to many songs at a house instead of it. Later is practice of a dance.

There isn't a girl friend, either and a local friend returns to localness and doesn't come and it would be leisure every day every day.

Several songs of fitting song is introduced in winter.


Art Of Noise - Moments In Love(original)



Ludacris - One More Drink ft. T-Pain




M.J.P - Last Day (rmx)


All music are nice sense flow.

vacation plans

I worked out two main plans for this vacation.That plans will carry out when I return home.

First, I'm going to meet my friends and seniors are high school club members.They are important to me and I like them very much! Probably, we will eat out, chat, and so on.

On the other hand, I'm going to take a trip with my family for 4 days. This trip will be the nicest my family have ever taken.
We have taken a trip a few times so far and there were a little trouble then. My brothers, sometimes I, often quarreled with each other at the tourist spots because we were too young to enjoy taking a trip.
Now, I think, we grower up than several years ago and have good sense.Therefore, I expect that this trip will give us some very happy memories later on.

I'm looking forward to executing my plans. I want to return home as soon as I can.

vacation plans

This winter, I am planning to have a party with my old friends on the evening of Christmas Day. We are going to cook sukiyaki and have a chat over dinner. After dinner, we are going to exchange gifts each other and enjoy playing bingo. At the end of the party, we are going to have a Christmas cake and sing a song. I wish that we will have a wonderful time.


Also, on New Year's Day, I and my family will visit grandparents's house. My cousin's family will come there, too. And we will have excellent dinner such as sushi, turkey, etc. After that, children will get otoshidama(New Year's gift) from adults and they will become happy. I'm looking forward to seeing my grandparents and my cousins.



By the way, have you already seen PUBLIC ENEMIES(the movie starring Johnny Depp)? I'm planning to go to the movie during winter vacation.
