I had a quiz in my class in the morning. Listening was difficult for me as usual or as expected. I could not tell surely that Reading was easy.
During lunch time, I phoned my sister through my computer. It was too late time in Korea, but she was not sleeping yet, so I introduced my some Japanese friends to her, letting them talk to her in Japanese because my sister can speak Japanese. It might have been interesting for her.
Our summer break was stretched a little. That was what I got more time to travel.
I spent all evening time searching for the presentation of final speaking exam, but I haven't still got any information. That was too bad. Anyway, I'd better go to bed for tomorrow.

I did do the dishes and took a bath and watched TV and slept long.

i was too tired. i uploaded lots of pics to my blog. it took me almost 3~4 hours. it was a big job. today was brady's birthday. i put a simple message on the card prepared by rie at lunch time. At round 8:30pm, i went to brady's home to give my gift to him. there were a few his friends playing on the trampoline. i got some ice cream from bonnie. i talked with rie. i noticed that her english is getting better as my dad told me. she got some mail and pics from her friends in japan. she must have been happy. it made me think that i should mail my friends in korea.

Today was very busy day for me. I had to go to three different church today. I went to the Canadian church in the morning, Korean church in the evening and another Canadian church to only sing in the evening. The Korean church was the first time for me. There were many Korean people and also I was able to meet many ESL students. Last friday, I went to the Sould Mart. I met Korean people who own the mart. We talked about the church then.
When I attended the church in the morning, there was Rie and Yuri side by side next to me . The minister was talking about old history related to Jesus. I was able to understand a little bit so it was a good time for me.

It was at noon when I got up. There would be Chiho's birthday at school at about 1:00 pm. I hurried to go to school. I phoned Tomo and Eriko but no answer. When I got to school, there were some friends in Riddell Centre. With Tomo, I went to Golden Mile to buy a cake for Chiho. The party started at almost 3 o'clock. There were many kinds of food on the table. I was happy. I got full easily.
In the evening, I went to Rie's home because I was invited for supper. Church people would come there and would have supper together. I think luck seemed to keep on me. Again, I was full. It was so delicious. It is true that food makes me happy. ^^;;

There was a Mosaic at school in the afternoon. (But, I still don't know what does the word "Mosaic" mean exactly.) That was prepared by a ESL class. Students from each country prepared about each own culture that was set up each room in LI (Language Institute) and showed them other students from different country - Korea, Colombia, Mexico, Japan, Germany, China, Thailand etc. It was very interesting. Luckily, I was able to eat "Bulgogi" with rice and "Kimchi" at the room of Korea and it became supper.

After that, I went to Seoul Mart near downtown on my way home. I bought some Korean food and was able to talk to the owner of the shop in Korean. They were nice people and gave me some information about a church where they are always going to Sundays. I was interested in, so I said I wanted go. I will probably go to the church in the afternoon this coming sunday. If so, I would have gone to the church 3 times this coming Sunday - first with Rie's homestay, second for Korean and third with my homestay. That will be interesting.
As soon as I got home in the evening, my homestay took me some place to dance. By chance, I met the Chinese guy again who I first met at the bus stop a few days ago because his homestay knows my homestay and we were going there together. It was a small world. During dancing time there, I did never dance. I was so sorry that they were always asking me to dance together but I didn't feel like dancing. But, All people seemed good dancers. I will never go there even though the music was nice and satisfied me.

After shool, I went to Holy Rosary Park near downtown for Cathedral Arts Festival with my friends. It was good. I listened to a storytelling from a storyteller. I stayed there for only 1 hour and went back home early because I was tired.

I am done my presentation. It was not good as expected. Now I am in library and so tired.
I told Tomo in the morning that I wanted to the Cathedral Arts festival until 7 pm, but I am not sure whether or not I can go there. What I need now is to take a nap.
