Hey y’all! 

 One of the best aspects of life is eating. So for today’s blog, I wanted to take the time to show you some pictures of food I’ve gotten to eat throughout my adventures in Japan. These photos also bring me back to a time when Corona wasn’t a thing, and we could roam freely around the country. 

  Anyways, I hope we can get back to that time at some point. In the mean time, lets reminisce together. 

Hello Everyone! Even though I’ve been here since March, Japan is still very new to me. Especially, the food! Everything I have tried has been really delicious, but sometimes, its nice to have something a bit more familiar. Recently, Mariam told me of this place in Ogaki called Chorky’s, an American diner with a great 50s feel! I was really excited to see what the vibe of this diner would be like so we decided to go. And it did not disappoint! The food was amazing and tasted just like something I could get at home. The design and music was perfect to match that 50s style as well. It’s so cool for Ogaki to have a restaurant like this! I highly recommend it!

みなさんこんにちは。

8月１０日は「山の日」ですね。

以前小学生のレッスンで「登る」という意味の動詞、climbを紹介したとき最後のｂを発音しないことを

子どもたちがなんでだろうと不思議がっていました。日本語と違って英語には書いてあっても

発音しない文字が含まれていることがあり、それが英語を読むことを難しくしていることもありますね。

でも繰り返し読む練習をすることで読めるようになっていくので、これからも少しずつ練習を続けて

いきたいと思います！

あっという間に８月です。毎日を元気に楽しく過ごせることに感謝しつつ、

それでもやはり春らしいこと・夏らしいことをせずに秋になることは不思議な感覚です。

ハローズの夏といえばイングリッシュデイとサマースクールinアメリカでしたが…。

The harder we keep trying now, the sooner we will meet again.

本当は会いに行きたい人がたくさんいます。きっと皆さんもそうじゃないかなと思います。

でもいまは自分の内面と向き合って、自分を磨いて、大切にする時間にしてください。

通常レッスンができることのありがたさを噛みしめて、

もっともっと楽しくて分かりやすいレッスンを提供できるよう私も頑張ります！

I haven’t been doing much lately because it’s either very rainy or very hot, and with more cases of Corona lately it feels more considerate to stay home as much as possible! That means I mostly spend time around the cats. Lately my cat Teddy always seems to be making a funny face whenever I look over at him. Maybe he is bored too, but since he’s a cat it’s hard to know what he’s thinking…
