Dear Mika

Hi. I'm writing a letter to you because you are one of my very important friends. It has been about fifteen years since you and I became friends. I met you for the first time when we were just five years and kindergarteners. Actually, we were close friends. However we had to go to different elementary school. Also you took an entrance examination to a private junior and senior high schools, but I didn't take it and went to a pubic school. Therefore we hadn't seen each other twelve years although we had exchanged letters.

Twelve years have passed, I could meet you again because we found each other on Twitter. At that time we were eighteen years old. I remembered feeling so happy.

Now I'm very happy to contact with you, be good friends again, and consult with you about everything. In addition to this, you tell me about good things and bad things. It helps me to change my actions, so I'm grateful to you. 

Lastly, you are my very important friend and I'm really looking forward to seeing you after I go back to Japan!!

See you :)

Self Introduction and My song

Self  Introduction 

Hi :) I'm Arisa. I'm 20years old. In Japan, I study politics, economics, management, and law. I want to improve my English, so I came to Calgary. It has been about four months since I came here. In addition to this, I'm going to go back to Japan at the end of March.

My Song

I chose Bad Day because the song makes cheer me up.  I think that it is an encouraging  song for me. I listen to  the song when there is something not to do well.  For example, last November, when I walked with my friends on a snowy day, I slipped on the snow three times for about five minutes. At the time I thought that I'm out of luck. Then I was listening to the song while I was taking a bus to go home. After that I felt better, so the song is important for me. Also I recommend you to listen to Bad Day!!
