帰ってきちゃいました。フツーに日本で今までどおりな生活をしています
梅雨は嫌いだけど、ひさしぶりにザーザーあったかい雨が降ってるのは、ちょっと好もしいです
すれちがいましたかね？Aveでですか？ちょっとそうかなって思った人がいたので・・・

meku
i cant believe im in japan now... and i was w/you only a week ago!
have lots of fun in the us! love you too!

----------------------------------------------
im at my desk in my university now it is funny that everything is already normal. i go to my uni. everyday and talk about my research w/my professor... i cant belive i just came back from seattle only 4 days ago. i dont feel time lag, i go out everyday. back to my uni. from yesterday...
thinkin about seattle... UW life in seattle is too far to think about. i dont know. it was a different life, which is separated from my current life in japan so, i feel ive been here all up until now
anyway, tatsuya who is sitting next to me says i never study, so gotta work on something
see you again!!

yeah yeah im in tokyo now
i safely got to home on June 12th though my stuff (2 big boxes, my violin, a backpack, a big bag, and a small purse) were way too heavy!
vincent and my host father helped me to carry them to a car then i visited my host family's house to have breakfast with host and went to the airport. airport was too crowed!! thanks for seeing me off norikun!!
i called almost every my friend when i was in the airport. it was fun
and... 10 hrs flight was long =( i was just sleeping all the way though
it is very hot here actually some ppl said "tokyo is like hawaii" when we first got off the airplane at narita! that is true too humid.

i met yamatan after i took a shower and ate dinner on that day
yesterday i cut&permed my hair, shopped in shinjuku, and met some friends and drank together
i dont have time lag i think its because i went to bed 4/5am(8/9pm in japan) every single day in seattle haha! now i go to bed 12am(8am in seattle) and get up 7am(3pm in seattle). so healthy and crazy
anyway, im in tokyo! i have to start unpack! return to my university from tmr!!

it was really fun to keep this blog. gotta keep all my entries forever as my precious memory

Who can believe I'm leaving Seattle for Tokyo today?
Thank you thank you thank you everyone and everything in Seattle and Tokyo

My exchange abroad was not only fun, for sure. I actually thought, why i came here or i just wanna go back home I didn't know i was smaller and weaker than i expected. i can say now. i learned a loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooot through my experience not only english skill.

For my friends: Love you guys!!!
its really hard to say 'good-bye' to my friends. but its not the end because were gonna definitely meet again! friends in Japan, thank you for email, bbs, comments on blog, msn, and letters!! i loved them

For my family: you probably recognize you all love me!!! please think of me as an important girl

For my professors: Thank you so much for working hard for me! ill study hard and graduate 2006 spring

anyway, im writing this in hyejin's room! she says 'Hi' haha.
i cannot imagine we're gonna go back to different countries, japan and koreal. but they're really close huh! you'll visit me and i'll visit you

ill go back home! hah!! scaryyyyyyyyyyyy

Lastly,
Thank you for visiting/commenting on my blog!!!
ホントにありがとうございましたー！

okay, its 240 now. im not gonna sleep in Seattle
"what should we do, hyejin? after you finish your packing"

I have only one day left...
えーとLAから帰ってからは、かなり遊びまくりました。
翌日はめくと1日観光して、買い物して、ユミとヴェロニカとディナーしてまた買い物して、それから今日はめくとマリナーズのsafeco field行って、アムトラックの駅まで送って、カーリーとダウンタウンで買い物してランチして、パッキングしてきょうへいと会って、そのあとアシュリーと遊びに来てるアシュリーの家族とbainbridge island（field tripでいったとこ）に、フェリーで行って、アシュとアシュの弟、光一くん(日本名)とめっちゃくちゃはしゃぎまくり、そのあとディナー。つつつつかれたけど楽しかったし幸せだ。

ちなみに、デビッドカードなんとATMで紛失しました。なので、bank of america行って、ストップしてもらって、ついでに口座閉めてきた。カード記念に欲しかったのにな・・・。
ま、誰にも使われてなくてよかったよ。アメリカでカード紛失か。良い思い出です。

ついでに私は日本では怖いクレーマーなんですけど、今日IHOPで料理が出てくるのが遅いのでクレームしてみました。アシュの家族は優しいからクレームとかしないんです。「料理まだですかー？30分以上も待ってるんですけど！！」ってね。
そしたら10%ディスカウントと、おまけのフレンチフライをくれました。アメリカでもクレーマー。良い思い出です。

パッキングはほとんど終わったけどまだまだ汚い・・・。
ルーミーと、今まで貼ってあったポスターにお互いメッセージを書いて交換したりしました。毎日いろいろ喋ってたルーミーとの生活ももう終わりなんて信じられないな。
で、これからのりくんとこに遊びに行ってくる！元気に最後の日を過ごそう。けど寝ないから！！！

みなさま
メールとか返せません。ごめんなさい。帰ったら連絡します。
フッチーの人たち、私15日からフッチーに復帰します。よろしくね　12に帰国して15から大学復帰なんて信じられません。でも、感傷に浸ってる暇なんてないほうが良いとおもうのよね。これから夏休みじゃだらけちゃうわ！

Heeeey i'm in Seattle again! cloudy and rainy seattle...
LA was fun! Thank you, Makaha chan and Sean! i love the weather in LA! i had so much fun! yeah... see you in tokyo 2 months later!

Meku is here! i came back here around 9pm and she got here around 10pm! we went to korean restaurant first and had late dinner we went to starbucks later. Mekuuuuuuuuuuu i love you! i cannot believe we've been friends for 8 or 9 yrs! we were just kids when we met. we were bad student b/c we were at hankouki! haha! im sorry for our teachers!

anyway, meku is sleeping now and im doing laundry.
i cannot believe i have only a couple of days here... so im gonna enjoy "seattle life" as much as possible!!!

おつかれさま
最後のバイオリンレッスンも行ってきました。

全然寝てません・・・。
もう、寝てるのがもったいないから
今は2時半。4時から、アシュリーと湖のほう行って日の出見てくる
そして、帰って準備して、L.A行きます　マカハちゃんとショーンに会う！マカハちゃんは、去年の3月にアメリカに来たから、1年3ヶ月ぶりなんだ
今日は朝、めくから電話があってかなりテンション上がった！中高の友達は、なんか、もー全然違うんだよね　なんてったって6年間毎日同じ学校に通ってたんだもんねー。

いやしかし眠い　しかもフライトたったの2時間半なんだよね・・・。
眠い眠い・・・。けどもーすぐsun riseだー

yeah... my school was supposed to be done by June 2nd, today but since MGMT490 is running out of time for everybody's presentaion, we have a class on FRIDAY OKAAAY, i've been working on my paper due today from last night. this paper will be 30% of my grade! 5 pages in single line! topic is "Integrating ISO14001 and The Natural Step for sustainable business" but i was too sleepy last night cuz i didn't have enough sleep since last w/e so i went to bed around 4 and woke up 10am! too late to finish the paper...

i had a presentation for MKTG301 today! after our presentation, i went to the library... to finish my paper. i was late for MGMT490 too anyway i finished my paper... but, the prof said we needed another class tmr! this means... i can turn in my paper tmr that's why i'm in a writing center rite now. i don't wanna turn in my paper without someone's check

i loved MKTG301 we surveyed people preference for granola bar and launched a new granola bar with professional advertisements i liked my group members! our presentation was awesome i'll keep our powerpoint, which i made, forever!!

I finished MGMT320 yesterday! i had a group presentation and two final essays i think i did okay! we dressed up for our presentation. i liked it! everyone looked so much nicer and professional aaaaaaaaaand, i met one girl who took this class at the starbucks last night, we never talked before, but she talked to me and said she liked our presentation hmmm.... there are a lot of nice people here!!

I'll go to starbucks again tonight. its gonna be the last starbucks-study. probably Ashley and i went there like 100 times and spent $100!! i'll never forget this starbucks!

NEMUI NEMUI!! but i decided not to sleep untill i leave here! haha! i gotta enjoy here as much as possible huh?

i did my individual presentation "Comparison of ISO14001 and The Natural Step" in the class today 15mins! it was.. not so good cuz i didn't prepare enough... but i dont think i could keep talking about the environmental problems and sustainable society for 15 mins without script last quarter! plus, i liked my slides (so pretty! haha) so it was okay!! it is still really hard for me to talk about "no-daily" topic in the class

anyway, i'm not too tired! that's good =) i have one presentation and 2 short essays due tmr i'll go to odg again... i don't really like there though i can concentrate on study there cuz i'm not used to odg. i always have to find a new place to study hope i can come back before morning...

っていうかもう６月か。そして明後日にはUWでの授業が全部終わる。11日には帰国か　こんなにフツーにここにいるから、信じられなさ過ぎる。また取り巻く環境が全く変わるんだなー、東京帰ったら　どうなるかなーどうなるかなー！シアトルのこと懐かしく思うかなー。こないだ友達と話してて、みやこは東京大好きだから、シアトル恋しくならなそうだねって話してたんだ。もしかしたらそうかも　でも、UWでもう授業がないことや、すっかり見慣れた光景なAve.にもう行かないことや、スタバでアシュリーと勉強したり、ルーミーと夜、いろいろ話したり、友達と遊んだり、そういうフツーなことがもうないなんて信じられない。I'll miss you so much Ashley!!
昨日、勉強しながらロミジュリ聴いてたら、なんか悲しくなって、そんなときに久しぶりにvincentに会ったらフツーに泣きそうになったわ・・・

だから帰るまで毎日ブログとマイブック書いて、ここでのこと残しておきたい
今は９時半過ぎだけど、まだ外はちゃんと暗くなってない
勉強勉強しなきゃ・・・

I just finish my presentation due today its not really done tho... just im done my ppt edit. i should practice ODG night!! yes, i wanted to experience it.
i think i really concentrated on this project b/c i have NO time i have another big presentation today, so i worked on that one harder cuz it was group presentation i like this group and our presention will be great
okay.. its almost 6am i came here around 11pm and I didn't even go to bathroom for 7 hrs crazzzzzzzzzzzzzzieeeeeeee
anyway, im gonna go back my room and will be refleshed as walking outside and work on ppt again
hope ill be okay ... bye odg!

I got middle name today! "Ann" is my middle name Miyako Ann! I love it
today.. i studied at foster all the day i dont wanna stay in my room cuz its too hot! i need AC!!
then went to TODAI = Japanese restaurant in downtown w/japanese friends i ate looooooooooooooooooooots sushi and creme brule
studied at starbucks w/ashley as always

i cannot believe that, 2 weeks later, ill be in an airplane to go home.
"2 weeks" sounds short. yeah, it is short probably but still, i cant believe ill leave here

but, here is an awesome announcement
"MEKU will visit me on June 7-9!!"
She and i are 無二の友人。メロスとセリヌンティウスのような
あれは確か中学２年生のとき。走れメロスに影響されていたんです。全然授業を聞かずにふざけてばっかりいたねー　めくにこっちで会えるなんて楽しみすぎるーーーーーーーーー
