The standard of writing in my blog has been “focusing on what I really want to tell my readers”. I was careful not to write something like iary. I could write something like diary in my diary. I thought this blog is good opportunities to communicate with a lot of people.
　　It is not clear so far if my aim has been achieved or not. I surely wrote some of them just for my friends and my family. In any case, it is clear that I was trying to write this blog in a way or another, hoping that someone would find something useful, which eventually makes me happy.
　　From now on, however I would like to use this blog just like my own diary. One of the main reasons is that I feel my English really arkward after using Japanese for writing this blog. I don’t know whether it is ture or not, but I surely feel depressed at the fact that concentrating on writing Japanese makes it difficult for me to keep up my English in a good way.
　　My favorite book about English practice is ”英語ひとすじの道～practice makes perfect”, written by tougo katuaki(東後勝明） who was in charge of NHK Radio English teacher. Although I read this book two months ago, I really realized from the bottom of my heart how I disregard the importance of practice.
　　His message is clear: You have to put yourself in a situation where you are supposed to use only English and think only in English. He emphasize that thinking not in Japanese but in English is a important point to keep in mind. Even if you are in a English-speaking country, it would be no advance if you use Japanese a lot. In order to improve English, I always have to use English and think in English.
　　I know there are a lot of things that I would like to show you. But I have to put priority on English practice. I am sometimes frightened to find that I have no improvement in my English when I arrive in Japan next year. Although it is embarrassing to write this blog in my poor English, I have no choice but to do.
　　I am going to write this blog for me (and few people).
