It was a beautiful day today.

It caused My unstable feelings to get better. : )

In the break time, I was practicing to sing Stevie Wonder ’s song at the the veranda. That was so comfortable ♪

At the time, someone called my name, she was my friend Haru : D I didn’t know that she is my neighbor . Her room is next next to mine !　She also changed the course “Semi sparta ” to IELTS lately . Which mean, we are friend and class mate : D

After changing the course, everyday I feel how poor my English knowledge is. Actually , sometimes I had a doubt about what teacher said . (Although , that depends on the teacher ,of course. There are many good teachers, too!) In fact , even if I was taught by teacher that my comprehension has some mistake, there were many times that the word has many way to use in addition to what teacher said .　Therefore I looked up what I leaned in the class every time. It is such a wast of time.

However , the problem is almost solved . I’ve learning many things . It is too many , I can’t remember enough them… lol

I need to change gluttonous to studious : (

day51~restrict my appetite ~

Hey guys!! I’m a just pig Juna Srita : D

TODAY’S MEAL

breakfast

bread / apple / minced beef and onion / rice / soup / black coffee /

lunch

potato / rice / kimchi / spinach / stir fried beef / soup /

Dinner

sweet potato / spinach / kimchi / boiled chicken and potato / rice /

My brain was completely sleeping this morning , this is because I couldn’t comprehend as usual what the teacher said . I feel little afraid whether I did something rude to her.

Oh , it reminds me, I have much muscle pain in my butt , therefore I was standing while taking the class . lol It might be weird… : D

By the way, I went to bed early last night to restrict my appetite after dinner . This is because sitting up till late night makes me feel hungry all the time.

As a result I ended up to be pressed by homework all day … : |

However It must be much better than eating snack too much and being emotionally unstable . My act was right.

This week, I have many friend who will graduate from this language school . I’ll miss them. I have only 1 month left to stay in the Philippines, but I won’t miss cockroaches in office building ..

Meanwhile, I gotta improve my English skills much more then than now . : ( !!

day 50 ~I’m stupid…~

Hey guys!! I’m a bass guitar player Juna Serita!!

TODAY’S MEAL

breakfast

breakfast / cabbage /water mellon / black coffee / soup / stir fried rice /

lunch

pineapple / spinach / rice / kimchi / deep fried chicken / beans sprout soup / deep fried to-fu /

dinner

kimchi / stir fried vegetables / hamburger / vegetable soup / fried rice noodles　/

I’m quite disappointed with myself these days .

The reason is that I’ve been eating toooooo much snack in spite of my stomach feels painful.

such as …

And so on….

I’m a real piggy…I’m wondering why I can’t bear my appetite for food…Actually, It’s not the first time . It’s repeated over and over since I was in college . On flop side, there is the term I’m afraid of eating,too. I gotta learn my lesson …

I’m absolutely understanding that the figure is one of the important things for entertainer , this is because entertainer have to be loved by many people. It is a requirement especially for women… right : ( ? I mustn’t get fat again for me, for my career ,for my future , for my fan , and also for my parents…

I think the current me is not a bass guitar player, just pig : (

I ought to begin the blog with the sentence “ Hello, I’m just a pig, Juna : D ” inspire of bass guitar player…

Anyway, I need to clean up my mind again. I don’t eat snack by myself !! (Frankly speaking,I was about to eat whole pizza without anyone yesterday… At the time, it was sold out. I’m lucky. ) Or else I’m gonna have to quit this job “musician”. 　People around me will come away from me.

I still don’t wanna give up… : |

breakfast

bananas /　oatmeal with milk / french toast /

lunch

pasta / deep fried egg plant / kimchi / spinach / rice / soup /

dinner

deep fried potato and onion / boiled egg and tofu / spinach / rice / kimchi / soup /

Today I called my mother up through my elder sister’s phone for my mother never has any SNS.

I was about to go bananas since I wasn’t able to hear my sweetheart’s voice for long time. She sounded fine, as a result I’m relieved .

Unfortunately, the wifi in the school is too weak.

Therefore neither my mother nor me understood well what we said each other.

You know , after all I didn’t go out anywhere this weekend . I’m a splendid student… : D

So one of the band member I sat in at the music bar Concoction Baguio sent me a message why I don’t come.

I also was keen to go, but I need to catch up with my class. Consequently I gave up .

Although, I really wanna play with someone cause I’m quite frustrated now!!!!　To play the bass guitar. : D

day 48 ~ complecated ~

Hey guys!! I’m a bass guitar player Juna Serita!!

TODAY’S MEAL MENU

breakfast

papaya / potato /black coffee / watery cooked rice /

lunch

watery cooked rice / meat ball / potato / beans sprout / seaweed / seaweed soup /

dinner

deep fried banana spring roll / kimchi / soup / chicken / cucumber / rice /

Regularly , Saturday and Sunday are holiday in the school. Since we had long vacation, there are classes today as per usual .

My new speaking teacher is so funny. I can speak with her without nervousness in spite of introverted . This is because I was often dancing with her before dinner in front of the dining room . She is a good dance couch ;in addition , she is a good English teacher.

I leaned about the system of IELTS speaking exam today.

Seems like it is kind of complicated ….

For instance,

・Focus on the topic invariably

Even if I talk about example or experience, I need to get back to the topic soon. (I’m not good at this..)

・If I use idioms , it should be maximum 5

I do like idiom….. It’s a bad news for me…

・Using same word in the other way can let me to get high score.

“I like healthy food . I’m old yet, so I need to take good care of my health.” Maybe like that.

・Use middle level word besides basic level.

For example, live →　reside 　and so on.

・Don’t use too many uncommon word.

The important thing is balance…

・The response ought to be about 3 sentences .

Too long speaking make the examiner get sleep. And also too short speaking wouldn’t be understood how much I have skills.

・Using other vocabulary to the question .

Ex.

*examiner 「Where do you live?」

Juna「I live in Baguio now.」←normal

「I am a resident of Baguio City」/ 「I currently reside in Baguio.」← I can get score!!

*examiner 「What is your favorite food?」

「My favorite food is meat .」←normal

「I love eating meat!」←normal

「I’m into eating meat, especially , chicken!!」/「Eating meat is a cup of tea!」←I can get high score.

Ohhh It beats me….

It’ll be hard on me. Although , I’m submissive If I had to say. Which mean, no dram.♪

Finally, I got my result of entrance exam for change to IELTS course .

My score was・・・・

3.5 out of 10.

(listening : 3 reading : 3 speaking : 4 writing : 3.5 )

Although , I didn’t understand how it is.

I brought the result to my listing class.

Teacher 「This is the lowest score actually..」

Seemed she never want to say so..lol

Therefore, I started to practice listening in that class.

The first section , there was nothing difficult ; I was able to fill in the all form without mistake.

In spite of that, the second section was too mean. : (

The speaking was too fast . It was much more difficult than first section.They can not be compared. I’m sorry to say that I couldn’t answer only one .lol

Teacher「You feel it’s very fast , right ? But it’s normal speed actually….」

Oh, shoot….

Anyway,I ended up to get the audio material for reviews through gmail. It can help my poor listening skills.

Frankly speaking,I don’t think I comprehend even if I can hear that over and over…..lol

Today also I have lots of homework…. I want to practice playing the bass guitar in addition to lean English….

I hope a day will become 48 hours.

Bye. Have a nice dream.

The vacation in the Philippines finished ! My school life started again. And also my new class started today.(I changed the course semi sparta to IELTS.)

Actually, I didn’t have my new class schedule and textbooks until this morning. My friend who changed the course at the same timing with me was also saying they never gave new things.

After eating breakfast, We dropped by the office building for asking about our books and new schedules . And then , we was able to get it finally.

Therefore , I managed to attend the class to have new books. Some teachers want me to hand in my result of level check test ; however I didn’t have yet. I need to see it to the office building tomorrow,again.

This is my new schedule.

I think two classes increased.

Because I had anxiety if other students and teacher can comprehend my poor English, I spoke so slowly for taking time to choose correct word. It was proven I need to have much more effort to learn English absolutely.

Bye.
