Goodbye summer 2010(Though it's way too late)




Whoa - it's been far too long since I wrote last! My last update was on the 16th of August, so it's been almost two months. Sorry for not posting for so long, I was just too busy to writ.....
No, I'm kidding. I admit. Actually I had much time for the past few weeks, but I was just too lazy. I'm so sorry!And thank you for still being readers of my blog. !!! :D


Well, as the photo above shows, it's been officially fall in Japan. Until several weeks ago, it had been so hot and muggy that I couldn't sleep at night.But recently, it's getting cooler and cooler and sometimes I feel chilly even for long sleeves.
Also, my long summer vacation ended a week ago, and then my last uni semester started.  Looking back on my long summer vacation which lasted almost 2 months, I think I didn't do anything but work. Especially during August, I worked like a horse from morning to night - because I had to! I am currently working out  a plan for my graduation trip to Australia during next Jan-Feb, which has been my motivation while working.Now I guess I can afford the flight & my stay at my friend's in Australia for some weeks, so if everything goes well my financial problem will be solved. So now I'm thinking it's time to organize my trip - I'm so excited!! But I just don't know what to start with. Though I'm not sure if I told you before or not, this is gonna be my first trip abroad. And I'm going there alone until I catch up with my friend in Canberra. I guess it might be the first time to organize such a big trip as this all by myself. So, right now, I don't even know how to get a passport, nor how to make a reservation for my flight.There's still much time until next Feb, but it's getting closer steadily.So excited, but a wee bit worried. Though it's gonna be just a few weeks' stay, I'd like to make my trip a great one. So...what am I supposed to do next?! D:


As for my school life, there's only less than half a year left before I graduate. So, I've been trying as many things as possible while I am still a student.I decided to write a thesis on my major though it's not required for my graduation. Besides, I'm going to participate in the university festival which is held next month. I'm also planning some small trips in Japan with my friends at uni.And parties. drinkings.Wow, so many events!!:D


And English. My TOEIC score is getting better, but since I didn't speak English at all during the long summer holidays, my speaking is clearly getting worse. I seriously need someone to speak with in English. Luckily, the new exchange students have just arrived in Japan, and last week I met some of them for the first time.They are all so nice! I'm already really looking forward to spending some time with them and I'll do my best to improve my English.Oh and of course, I'll keep this blog and writing about my last uni life. Wish me luck!
