Fc Barcelona

　I've always checked my classmate's blogs because I can learn English from their blogs. Some of our classmates love soccer and me, too. I'm going to tell you my friend Masashi's story again.　(Barbara, I aready introduced him in my presentation.) When he lived in Barcelona, he became a member of FC Barcelona(socio). He got a his own seat in Camp Nou Stadium. He still keeps it the membership even though he can't go there. However, he visited there in 2005. He had to make a report about foreign country's soccer in order to get a soccer coach license. He asked FC Barca's office if he could watch their practice near by players. FC Barca accepted Masashi's offer.

　When I found these pictures, I was excited because the pictures was showing up with Masashi and the famous players. He posted these pictures on his blog yesterday. They are amazing photos, aren't they? I've liked Frank Rijkaard since I saw him for the first time in The World Cup in France. He was a coach in Holland national team. I've never seen his play, but I liked his teams such as Holland national team, FC Barca. Unfortunately, I don't have cable TV. I can't watch any soccer games at home. However, I love soccer!!

Skiing

I love to go skiing. I started skiing when I was 9 yeas old. In this season, I went to Windham Mountain for 3 times. Each time, I stayed at B&B in Catskill. They were built in 1863. There is a delicious German restaurant and a sulfur hot-spring. By the time I was there, I always have had wonderful time. It's going to be out of ski season. I'm going to do running once or twice a week. I hope so.

This picture is last season in January 2008.

Scotch Whisky

I'm writing this blog with Scotch Whisky now. My friend's husband bought the 18 years old Macallan last week. It's a luxury. I always study at the kitchen. When I was studying, sometimes he gave me some drinks. So, I need to tell you my situation in N.Y. I'm living in my friend's house. My friend is Japanese, her husband is American, her daughter is 2 years old. However, they are like my real family. I'm very comfortable to live with them. Anyway, my friend and I are drinkers. I used to drink every night during dinner, but I failed the writing test last semester. Therefore, I stop drinking during week day except today. Sometimes, I really want to go to a bar, but I can't do that because I have to drive wherever I go out. I'm only able to drink with my friend who can't drink any alcohol when I go to a bar. However, I've never had like that situation in N.Y, yet. However, this Whisky is amazing. It's very tasty!!

Second session

It was starting second session today. The first day of new teacher was fresh. Our class is a little bit noisy, but every classmates are very nice. I like to study with them. I hope Barbara will be able to enjoy in our class. However, I was so tired because there was American-Asian-Festival at Farmingdale College on Saturday. I was asked to help the festival by my friend and I had to prepare the Japanese booth setting from on Thursday. I didn't have enough time for sleeping. I also had to go work on Sunday. I had good time this weekend, but I was so tired.
