MFWI

I like MFWI, very much. I have a lot of memories, so it's difficult for me to choose the best one. But, I choose one. it's Home Stay. It was very interesting for me. My host family members are father, mother and two children. One of the children is a 3 year old girl. She is very cute! All time, she spoke to me during home stay. We talked a lot, and made cookies, this is why I asked my host mother "I would like to make something food. Can I make it?", so we made them. It was very delicious, and I was glad to make them together, I want to do it again. This weekend, I will go to home stay. This is last, so I'm really looking forward to seeing and talking with them again

I cant remember what happened everyday, but I have many memories in MFWI.

I like MFWI, I will come back to Japan soon, so I will miss MFWI.

My best memory

I have a lot of great memories in MFWI, but my best memory is Homestay. I was a little nervous before I met Host father and mother. But they were very kind. When I and my roommate went to their house, they and three dogs warmly welcomed us. So I was very happy. I have been to Homestay for several times. They took us to Idaho and camping, and they invited us to Easter paty in their home. We cooked break fast and dinner with Host family and we enjoyed conversation with them. We watched many movies. We slept for long time. I had very fun!! The days which we spent with Host family are great memory, so I am glad to be their Host daugther.

My Favorite Memory

I experienced various things, and I learned many things at MFWI.

I have a lot of good memories.

Especially my favorite memory is East Coast Tour.

I visited many famous places. For example, White House, Lincoln memorial,

Mt.Vernon and so on.

I wanted to visit there, so I was very glad to visit there.

I learned how it differs from Spokane.

And I thought I wanted to know America more.

After 2 weeks, I have to come back to Japan.

I want to come back soon, but I'll miss MFWI.

Last 2 weeks, I want to enjoy this life and Spokane more!

My Best Memory

My best memory is Everyday!
I can't choose best memory...
I had a lot of fun and precious experiences in MFWI.
I could meet many friends, teachers and Americans and talk them.
It was really very interesting for me.
I went to with my friend
I could lead a full school life. It was a fantastic.
I remember Seattle and East coast trip well!
I want to go to Boston again. I like a row and street in Boston.
I liked the lobster clam chowder at Quincy market.
I don't want to say good-by to RAs and teachers.
But I never forget the memory in MFWI.

My Favorite Memory

I have many precious memories during this semester. But, one of the precious one is that I could speak with many native Americans. I visited SFCC, a high school and an elementary school. And when I go shopping, I also have an opportunity. In Japan, I don't have such a good chance to talk. English class's teachers are always Japanese, but in the MFWI, all teachers are American, so I can listen to natural English everyday!!

So anywhere and anytime I can learn English. It is very important to study English. I noticed that I can't communicate in my English. But now it is little improved, I think. So, after I go back to Japan, I try to keep speaking English.

My Best Memory

My best memory in MFWI is going to Idaho in special class. It took about 1 hour to go there by school's van. I was listening to J-pop music with my friend in the van, so time passed more quickly than I thought. I went to the Coeurd' Alene with my classmates. It was very huge & beautiful. Some birds were swimming there, and it was cute. There are a lot of nature, and wind was very comfortable. Next, I went to the Painter's Chair Gallery with my friends. We lost our way, but we could reach there. There are a lot of art. Every painting was pretty good. My favorite painting is Sunday Morning. It was very good. Next, I went to Japanese restaurant, TAKARA. I ate chirashizushi & tempura. These were little different from Japanese, but these are very delicious. I was glad to eat Japanese food after long separation.

Idaho has a lot of nature, delicious foods & arts, so I wanna go there again.

Fabulos days

I can't choose my best memory so I write about some of my great memories.

One of my big event is Welcome Banquet because I gave a speech.

At that time I was too nervous, however, it's good memory now.

Also homestay was very good experience because I could talk about many things such as American history, culture and family.I could learn a lot.

When I came back my dorm, I felt that my English skill was improving.

I really appreciate my hostfamily.

At MFWI I tried to join JCC's activities as much as I can. I joined tea ceremony club,Bon dance,Family Festival and So-ran bushi. When I joined So-ran, I was leader so I worked harder and we performed So-ran bushi at River Park Square on Japan week.That was so exciting!

During this semester, I made many friends and met fantastic teachers through classes, at JCC and in everyday! I'm really happy to have many good relationships in MFWI!I won't forget these memories.

Thank you guys!I love 14!

Best Memory

I have a lot of memories in MFWI, especially East Coast Trip!

I've been to East Coast at the first time, so I was very excited.

I visited Boston and Washington D.C.

Boston is very historic and old-fashioned city. I like Beacon Hill's atmosphere.

I prefer Washington D.C. to Boston.

There are many famous monuments in Washington D.C.

I was impressed that Lincoln Memorial!

It was very magnificent, and I could see very beautiful view in there.

I wanted to meet President of America who is Obama, but I couldn't meet him.

I always watched Washington D.C. on TV in Japan, so I was happy to go there.

It's my best memory in MFWI! I don't want to leave here ;(

Great Memory!!!

I could make a lot of memories in this MFWI. Especially, my best memory is Homestay. My host family invited us most every weekend. eMall. And, we could try to eat many coutries food. They are always kind to me and amused us. We are like real family.

Also, I could make many friends. When the first class began, I didn't have many good friends so I was anxious about it. But now, all students in this class are very friendly and interesting. I'm glad to take classes with these members. I love Class 14! Thank you, everyone!(^O^)

Welcome Banquet, Seattle Trip, Homestay, East Cast Trip, Japan Week, Bloomsday, and life in Carlson House... All MFWI life is my great memory!!!

My Best memories

My precious memory

I have a lot of memories in MFWI. I learned many things from MFWI life, and I had good experiences.

My best memory is Seattle Trip. I love Seattle. I enjoyed Seattle very much.
I like all places where I visited. I especially like Safeco Field. I was excited when I saw the ground.

Also I enjoy my dorm life. I laugh every day. I like my living group. I could get over my difficulties through my friends help. If I had not been a member of this group, I couldn't have spent such a wonderful days!!

I am also happy to meet my classmate and wonderful teachers.

Thanks a lot. Everything is my favorite memory!

My best memory

I can't choose one thing that it is my best memory.
I could make many memories to visit many places such as East Coast Trip but most impressive memory is to spend a normal days in MFWI!
There are the time that we spend in my dormitory, classes, commons, tutorial which are in a day.
There are not special but impressive for me. I experienced many things in normal days.
And though these days, I could make many friends. I am surprised that I could make so many friends. And I could meet very good teachers. It is my most happiest thing here. They are priceless!!! I want make more memories in rest of time in MFWI!!!

My favorite memory of MFWI

I want to say"my favorite memory in this semester is all of MFWI's memories", but if I choose best memory, it is ECT because I could see many great buildings, go many places to see and experience wonderful things!! Before coming to MFWI, I wanted to see the White House, so I could see it and I was very happy :) Before ECT, I studied American culture in American Studies, so I had knowledge of American culture, so I could understand many things when I went sightseeing. I spent a good time!! I was always impressed!! I could know what I didn't know until now. I researched where I would go in ECT and I imagined many things in advance, but many things transcended my imagination. All things had power. I was impressed!! I experienced and learned through MFWI's life. I had few days, so I want to enjoy!!

MFWI LIFE*

The rest of MFWI life is drawing to a close, so I must be going to miss MFWI. MFWI's life gave me a lot of experiences. One of them is "not to give up." I think I have strong determination, but I had been about to give up on anything. As an example, it was Bloomsday. I'm proud of my stamina, so I thought I would be able to keep running, but I was about to give up. Then, I could hear, "You can do it! Keep running! Don't give up!" I heard these cheering from spectators and myself. I decided to keep running to the last. Even more, it thanks to existence of Yukiko for being the fastest runner in MFWI. Bloomsday is one of my favorite memories. I want to join again!;-) because I want to run within 1 hour.

The examples were not only Bloomsday, also classes, trying something,during traveling, keeping good relationship, and so on. So I can't choose my best memory of MFWI life because all of the life was my best memory!:-)

Also it is best memory to meet you guys!:->

I love Section 14 :-)

My Best Memory

My best memory is Seattle Trip

because, I went there at first time

so, I could enjoy there.

We were there only three days. I wanted more days there.

I have two best memories.

First, this is Safeco Field.

I couldn't see Ichiro Suzuki, but, I could feel near him.

And, I could sit down the seat that he sits down on.

I was impressed by that, "I sat down same seat of Ichiro!!"

Second, this is not place, just talking.

When we came back Tillicum Village to Seattle by ferry.

Then, my RA, my friends and I talked with an old couple.

We talked about various things. For example, our school and bottle ships etc...

My favorite talking was about love. Old woman asked us "Do you have a boyfriend?"

My RA and my friends have boyfriends, so they could answer "Yes." but I don't have boyfriend, I answered "No". Then, she asked only me, "Do you have a girlfriend?"

I had a moment of confusion. And I answered "No" quickly. I couldn't guess that she asked me about that. It was culture shock!! I never forget that. I had good experience.
