Communication in a high tech world

There're a lot of good effects in a high tech world, but there're also bad effects in it.

These days almost all people have own cell phones even if a child. When I was an elementary student, I didn't have my own cell phone and few people also have their own cell phone. However I often see even children (maybe under 12 years old) have their cell phone. In fact cell phone is very convenient tools you know. But I think it's not good to use too often. If you use them for a long time, you can't communicate with people face to face. Moreover if you use e-mails many times, your ability of Japanese, for example kanji, will decrease. Many foreigners look face to face when they communicate with people. I think it is very important when we do so. High tech world brings us many good effects, but we had not better to rely on too much.

Globalization

Today I'll tell you about 'globalization'.
In my life, there're many kinds of globalization.


I always feel globalization in fashion.
There are a lot of foreign clothes shops in Japan, for example UNIQLO, H&M, forever21 and so on.
And I often buy clothes in these shops.
You all know UNIQLO I think, and UNIQLO's global flagship shop in shinsaibashi opened on October 1st!!
I think it's a big globalization!!
Have you been there yet? I want to go there someday.

Second, I feel globalization in sports.
I think sports is also globalization because we can contact with many foreigners through the games.
For example the World Cup soccer was held this year.
I think a lot of Japanese watched the game and I did so.
When we watch the game, I think we can know the opponent country's culture through games, for example their national anthem, their fashion, or the way of cheering and so on.
It is also globalization i think.

My Summer Vacation

Hello! Long time no see :)
In this summer vacation, I went to many places.

First, I went to Nagano for ESS summer camp for a week.
We had to use only Engrish for 4days, and it was very fun !!
Before this system, I felt uneasy because I am not good at speak English.
However I could enjoy this system very much.
The last day of camp, we had free time and my division member went to karaoke in Nagano!!!!!
It was very exciting
And through this camp, I could talk with a lot of members.

Second, I went to Tokyo with my high school friends.
It was first time to go trip without our parents.
We used bus and train as a way of getting around.
The first and second day, we went to TDL and TDS.
It was very hot because it was mid-August ><
But we all had a very good time!!
The third day, we went to Shinjuku, Harajuku, shibuya, and Tsukishima.
We enjoyed shopping and in Tsukishima we ate monja.
It was the first time to eat it, and it was very delicious.
This trip was as the graduation trip :>lol

Third, I went to Amsterdam and Paris with my grandmother and my relatives for a week.
It was the first time to go abroad for me!!
We enjoyed sightseeing.
My favorite place is Amsterdam because a row of stores and houses on a street there was so beautiful and its town was established well.
I thought I want to go there again.
In Paris, we could see illumination of the Eiffel Tower.
It was so beautiful !!
We went to many famous places in Paris, and we enjoyed shopping, too :>
The strong yen has made it easier to travel overseas and go shopping there !!lol

I experienced a lot of "first time" this summer.
These were my best memory :)
