My ARW Essay and interest

ARW, a class of English for Liberal Arts, is the most largest credit in the Freshman, but it finish on the next Monday.
I learned a lot of things through this classes in a year.
At first of spring term, I was so disappointed because I don't have have enough ability to use PC and shocked that my section mates have better vocabulary than me so much. I forced oneself a hard schedule of unsound mind.

It was hard but it became OK and fun by a little and little.

It is because I have been a lucky part of family and  teachers and section mates!!!

They helped and stimulate me a lot. I really thanks for them ! !

Thanks for the people around me, I think I can change, get many new way of thinking and have direction for my future.

In the ARW classes, I wrote about....
the important things for college students,
population crisis in Japan,
nonverbal communication,
hate speech,
and now I'm writing about cosmetic surgery.

ARW made my interest more wide.
I want to learn more and there are many topic I want to write for next term. On the other hand, from now, I have to narrow down my interest at the same time.

The time I have to work through my feeling will continue.
But just now, I have to work through and finish my last essay !! :-o

Long time no see! things I like..

I was surprised to look my blog and notice that my latest post of this blog is the beginning of autumn term... :-0 

Any way,  I want to restart writing from today again.  I want to improve my ability of English so I am now using some app that I can chat with people in English freely but the time is limited and can't chat long time.. So I start to this blog again :) !!

Freshman are going to be finished 2 weeks later.....!! 

Now is the middle of winter term and I have more free time compared with spring and autumn. So, there are more time listening someone's talk and thinking about many things especially about near future with my friends.  Maybe one reason of that is need to plan and decide what course I take next year. 

Thinking about future is a little hard for me. More deeply, seriously and practically I think about future, not only hope but more difficulty and negative things I find.

 
However, I was very very stimulated friends around me. I am a little be afraid of working through me but I saw their action and it encourage me to make action, too.

 

This is a part of poem I like↓

THIS IS YOUR LIFE. DO WHAT YOU LOVE AND DO IT OFTEN. 

＊snip＊

IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR THE LOVE OF YOUR LIFE, STOP; THEY WILL BE WATING FOR YOU WHEN YOU STRAT DOING THINGS YOU LOVE. 

STOP OVER ANALYZING, LIFE IS SIMPLE.

＊snip＊

TRAVEL OFTEN; GETTING LOST WILL HELP YOU FIND YOURSELF.

SOME OPPORTUNITIES ONLY COME ONCE, SEIZE THEM SO GO OUT AND STRAT CREATING.

LIVE YOUR DREAM AND SHRE YOUR PASSION.

LIFE IS SHORT.

good night :))

 

Autumn term start !

The autumn term start from last week. One week past very soon and I met some new teacher in the classes. There are many types of classes especially in English classes so I want to learn many things from each teachers. Most of classes I have in this term is English class. In this term, I want to set my distinct goal. I'm going to use new words which I learn in my writing and improve my vocabulary.

Anyway, I'm happy that I can study with my section mates again.

My summer vacation

Today is last day of this summer vacation. In this summer, I had a plan to study in NZ using SEA program. however, I didn't go because of bad health. It was sad that I did't go abroad in this summer but I recharged myself in Japan to study from September with good condition. Now, I'm fine so I'll be careful to my health.
I didn't go to abroad but I went to Simoda, Sizuoka with my friends at last of my summer vacation. It was very fun trip! We stayed a  cottage. There ware one big room so we cooked dinner and sleep together. It was like a big family! I really enjoyed this trip. I thanks my friends :) I'm looking forward to trip again with my friends.

Continue to learning Fallacies

In the last class of ARW, we had a discussion and Course Wide Test about Fallacies. There are many kind of Fallacies and some of those are similar. Some questions of CWT is difficult to judge that  which is the correct one. Especially, sweeping generalization and Hasty generalization is very similar. Anyway, Fallacies are important for us to learn in college. I have to continue to learn Fallacies.

Various Fallacies

In the last class, we learned about various Fallacies. I learned this of Japanese when I was in high school and I felt that it is difficult. Then, I learned this by English in the college. I couldn't understand about Red herring at first. However, step by step, I understand these thanks to my friends and teacher's explanation. Blogs written by my friends also help me to understand definition of Fallacies.

Find key point!

In the last class of ARW, I learned about syllogism and fallacies. It is difficult but this way of thinking is very important and useful for my essay. When I wrote and read long paragraph, sometimes I misunderstand the main idea. So to find key point and connect them help me to understand more clearly.
