My new life in Brisbane
About a month has passed since I came to Brisben, in Australia.
I'd like to tell you about my experience so far.
Every day I go to school by train and walking. I think Australian train is less convenient than Japanese one. It does't come on time and is very few in the weekend. But I can stand now because I get used to be here.
My university is really big. There are a lot of nature and we can enjoy very beautiful view. In addition, there are a lot of library. I was surprised at the number of them. My Japanese university has only one library. I found that that's why UQ students are intelligent.
Australian class is totally different from Japanese one. We can share our ideas with each other.In my class, I can meet very kind friend from many countries. They are very powerful and outgoing. I can't follow them even now, but they make me inspired. Teachers are also fun. They make me laugh and often ask me about my country. I really love them.
On Friday,the school ends 1pm ,so we can hang out with my friends.
I went to a lot of places like museum, market and karaoke. Everything is fun but also expensive.
Finally, I introduce about my host family.
My host family is 3 members. There are a mother, 7 years old girl, and 7 months baby.
They are very kind. My host mother always cheers up me when I feel sad and children come to my room and talk to me. They are so cute. I do like spending time with them.
I left 9 months to live here. I want to spend my precious time with my incredible friends, teachers and host family not to waste.

Hi Fumika - very nice first blog post - well done!
ReplyDeleteI liked reading about your experiences here. I also like some of your language use:
Nice expressions (I can stand it now), (hang out with my friends) (cheers me up) and also your use of some good descriptive adjectives like "incredible", "outgoing", "inspired", etc. Keep it up!
when you are comparing Australia with Japan, you can use more comparative words, like 'while, whereas, however, in contrast".
Keep posting and try to add some photos next time if you can. I look forward to reading your future writing.
All the best,
Henno
Hi Fumika
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed reading your blog.
I was happy to go to uni together in the morning when you were in my town. I hope you are having a lovely time with your host family and friends.

Hi. I agrree with you. Austlarian public transportation often don't come on time especially bus. Maybe the reason is that Japanese transportation is so nice, isn't it? Your host family sounds very good. You're a lucky girl! But my host family is also exellent and lovely:) Anyway,I hope you have a great time in AUS.
