Blogging in English

I could learn many things from this class. And I enjoyed it. I found some good points through this class.

Blogging in English is good way to brush up our English Skill. Especially, we can brush up writing ability. Because we have to post new topic every week, and we can find some mistakes in our sentences with teacher's help. Also I realized that I often used same expressions in my sentences. Even if these sentences grammatically correct, they might be ordinary and boring for visitors on my blog. So I would like to study more grammatical expresions and write sentences more and more natural as foreign people.

I learned mainly two good points from this project. First, I learned various cultures in foreign countries and Japan. My classmates introduced some interesting places or foods which I didn't know. Of course, I could learn a lot of things from UNH students. Second, I realized again the Japanese usage and I found the importance of communication. Some UNH student's Japanese sentences are not very good. But we could understand almost what they wanted to say. I think we need not aim the perfect grammatically sentences to communicate with foreign people. The most important thing is to enjoy communicating with each other.

Blogging in English wasn't very difficult. But I think this class is good opportunity for me to check my English writing skill. In fact, Before this class, I tended to use the dictionary words as soon as I couldn't think of the expressions. Sometimes they are suitable for the sentences, but sometimes not good. And I found the good way of writting English. If you think about English sentences by Japanese, you will be likely to make strange sentences as I failed. So when you write English sentences, you should think them by English. I realized it through this class.

I think this class give a good chance for us to communicate with foreign people. Of course, I'm interested in many foreign countries and cultures through this blog. So I hope that a lot of people take this class. Then this progect may be more interesting!!

Cooking!!

Are you cooking your own meals everyday? Some people prepare food, and some people go to convenience stores or restaurants in order to eat their fill. I think cooking is the best for us . There are some reasons.

First, we will be able to take good care of our health through cooking. we can know each food's nutrition and think about the good balance of our meals. For example, it is said that we should eat more than 350g of vegetables everyday. It might be too hard for us. But if we are used to cooking our own meals, we can think about it easily and enjoy making a healthy menu.

Second, we can cut down on food expenses. If we know the way of keeping each food, we can make various dishes at low cost. And today, we can find many recipes on the Internet whenever we want. Those recipes are always helpful to us.

Third, we can know many food cultures of foreign countries. If we enjoy cooking everyday, we will be interested in the French, Italian, Korean... and more dishes. There are various traditional dishes in the world. We will discover dishes which we have never eaten before.

If you are living alone, cooking is troublesome for your daily life. But eating out, or eating a packed lunch from convenience store, is expensive. And you can't get enough nutrition from meals like that. So cooking is very important for our healthy life. Please enjoy it!!^^
