study abroad

I was studying abroad when I was in the tenth grade.
I stayed in Washington in America with my host family.
It will take days if i talk everything about it so i'll make it shorter.

I was going to Bethel High School. I was doing same thing as other students.
I was taking Geometry, Child Development, Ceramic Art, Aerobics, US History, English, Culinary, and TA at Library.

Geometry was super easy. They, 10th grader, was studying what I studied in elementary school.

Child Development was super difficult. first of all, words used in the subject are not defined even in the dictionary because they are too special. To learn medical thing in English was too difficult for me.

I lover Ceramic Art. it was not like a class. we could make whatever we want to make.

US History, it was hard for me, too because I only had poor knowledge of us history.
i think i worked on this subject the best. Mr. Reopelle, the teacher of us history, was so nice.

Aerobics was fun. we were just walking, talking, walking, talking......

TA is a teachet assistant. I was a teacher asistant at Library. basically, i had nothing to do in this class, so I was making a puzzle! lol or playing on compuer.

in the culinary class, we have to work for cafeteria, so I was working for cafeteria everyday at 3rd period. that was nice because we could get lunch for free.

the schedule is same everyday. the text book is huge like a pictorial book.

new semester starts in September and school ends in June.
clubs are different by season. I was in the tennis club in Spring.

everything is different from japanese school system.
I got confused at first, but it was a great opportunity to experience different culture.

I talked about school today. next time, I will talk about daily life in america.
