Clubs Day Debrief -- Usa Yamagami

It was amazing that all of the club activity joined this event and everyone was kind. Kansai University club activity event is bigger than this, so it was too many to decide on one. But this time, I could get the exact information that I wanted. I felt that I was able to talk to students and succeed making networking at the event.

Wish bone→ I wanted to know what kind of clubs are located at Otago University and whether the club members are good people or not. Also, I like Japanese anime, so I wanted to get about the anime club information.

Jaw bone→ At first, I felt scared to talk to club members because my English is not fluent. I was worried that they didn't take me seriously. However, they were all of the kind, so finally, I was able to actively go talk to the clubs I was interested in. I felt I was able to communicate effectively. I especially spent some time in the anime club area and I promised to go tomorrow for the experience.

Back bone→ I think I should try to go to some club activity experience. And I think it is necessary to be exposed to foreign university clubs. I already signed up online at the anime club, so I will go to the anime club tomorrow for a trial. I will go to the Japanese Culture Club event on Saturday. I am also interested in the International Student Exchange Club, so I will make an appointment.

    I understand your feelings that no one would take you seriously.

    You analyzed yourself seriously, so you are a good communicator.

    Kudos to you, Usa, for taking the Clubs Day seriously and carefully looking over the list of clubs with tables to find some of interest to you. How did your experiences of the Anime Club and the Japanese Students Club go? David :-)

About Me -- Yugo Konno

  My name is Yugo Konno.  I am from Tokyo and 20 years old now. I am living  with the White family in St. Clair. My impression of Dunedin is that there are many spectacular sceneries and kind people. My favorite subject in high school was world history. I took this course to improve my writing and listening English skills. I like cycling because it makes me so excited. What I dislike is having a part-time job because it’s so boring. My only one advantage is that once I start something, I never stop in the middle. One of my disadvantages is that when I am engaged in something, I am often unable to see anything else around me.

       Hello. My name is Usa Yamagami . Please call me Usa. I am 20 years old now. I live in Belleknowes , Dunedin with Barbara and Kelvin, and their son, Phoenix. As soon as I arrived, I thought it was very cold! And I envy New Zealanders because they have a lot of lands. I came from Osaka, Japan, and it is cramped with a lot of buildings. In fact, when I was in high school, Japanese was my favorite of all subjects. Because I like Japanese novels and comics. However, I wanted to try to read Japanese manga in English, so I decided to study English hard. My hobby is listening to music, watching a movie, reading books, and talking to people. Lately, I have been into ''Murder Mystery''. I have made many friends on Twitter who share the same interests. If you don't know about it, please check it out. I don’t like cooking and cleaning, so I think I can’t live alone! 😂   My good point is that I have self-paced, and I think my bad point is also self-paced. Finally, I ...

About me -- Shiho Matsuura

  Hello, class! I’m Shiho and from Japan. Also, I’m 19 years old and now live in Kaikorai with Hilary who is my host mother. I have impressed a nature, a view from my home and a wood stove. I like Dunedin because there’s no high buildings and Dunedin is a beautiful streetscape. Sometimes, I miss Japan and soaking in the bathwater. My favorite subject was Japanese because I like classic so in Japanese classes I could read Japanese classic literature. I chose this course because I want to improve my English enough to discuss difficult problems. Also, my hobby is dance and I love music. For example, I often listen to rhythm and blue and also my host mother likes music so we sometimes listen it together. I’m good at finding nice teas so If anyone want to know delicious teas, let me know! On the other hand, I’m hopeless at waking up early morning so 1 st class that start 9 am is a little hard for me. In conclusion, my goal is improving my English and become a person who understand ...
