VICTORIA

Last weekend I went to Victoria with my family. It was a first trip in Vancouver. I stayed Victoria only two days but it was good opportunity for me to improve my English Skill. I made out the all of schedule and made reservations by myself. We visited to The Butchart Gardens, Legislative Buildings, Craigdarroch Castle, Antique Row and Royal British Columbia Museum and enjoyed seafood restaurant. I felt big difference from schools conversation and real one’s. Still now I sometime translate from Japanese to English. I fully realized translating disturbs my English improvement. I have to change more….

Power Point

I had presentation today. The title is “New income strategies in my university”. This is the first time to use Power Point. The presentation of 15 minutes was over somehow. but as for me it was hardly to be satisfied.

About Three days ago, I bought a new textbook and started TOEIC study. My target scores are 750 points. It’s very hard for me but if my target is low, my achieve scores are low. So, I decided that’s scores. Fortunately, my listening skill has been improved through this abroad. I can answer most of listening questions. But till now another parts are difficult for me. I believe “I can do it!”

H.R. MacMillan Space Centre

Today I went to H.R. MacMillan Space Centre with my family. In front of this centre, strange object came into my eyes. That’s a Big Curb made of metal. This centre located at waterfront Vanier Park, and I can learn about the stars. We enjoyed a 360-degree show in the planetarium. This equipments is great, but story was little boring.....
