Hey y’all! 

the other day I needed to try some tea to take to America. In doing so, I got to see a popper tea ceremony. It was a really lovely experience!

have you ever been to one? 

see y’all in class! 

Kia Ora everyone and Happy New Year!!!

I hope you’ve all had an amazing holiday season and are enjoying the new year so far!

I was lucky enough to spend my new year in New Zealand with my family and it was amazing!

It’s currently summer-time over there so we spent New Years eve having a BBQ and staying up until midnight to count down the new year! I also ate delicious strawberry ice cream!

How did you celebrate New Year’s Day?

Please tell me all about it in class!

あけましておめでとうございます！

皆さんは新年の抱負はありますか。特に無いよって人は是非今考えてみてください。

一度自分について考えることが一番大事だと思うので、その目標はどんなに簡単でも、具体的でも抽象的でも良いと思います。

僕は２つあって、１つは体が弱いので健康に一層気を付けるというのと、

あと１つは、自分はかなりの心配性なので、前向きに楽観的に過ごすということです。

ちなみに新年の抱負のことを英語で、「new year’s resolutions」といいます。

ぜひ新年最初のクラスで自分の抱負を発表してみてはいかがでしょうか。

新年あけましておめでとうございます！(/・ω・)/

みなさんにとって良いお年になりますように。おいしいものをたくさん食べて、遊びも勉強も全力で楽しんでほしいなと思っています。

冬休み中に去年掲げた抱負や目標を見返してみるのも◎ですね。私の今年の目標は、転ばない＆傘を忘れない、TOEICの勉強をし直すこと！たくさんの目標・願い事のある素敵な年にしたいです！

During the winter vacation I went to IKEA in Aichi prefecture. I love IKEA. Even though it’s a furniture store it feels more like a theme park to me. Exploring all the rooms and reading the names of all the furniture in Swedish is always a good time. The part of going to IKEA that I missed the most was eating at the restaurant there. I definitely recommend going to IKEA and getting some swedish meatballs. They’re delicious!
