The Last Friday


We had a final presentation.
We practiced many time and did our best.
Our team did not get first prize, but I was enjoyed to make our presentation.
I was surprised other team's performance.
Every presentation were creative one.
I learned new way of presentation from them.

At night, we ate SUSHI at the Japanese restaurant.
It was delicious, and a little different from that of Japan.

In addition, Bonfire took place.
However, I had a fever, so I came back on the way to the Bonfire place.
Fortunately, I saw fireworks the way go back our dormitory.
It was very short time, but I was very very happy!!!

Last Thursday

Today, we corrected and printed our draft in order to submit to Ron. But we took much more time than we supposed. So, we gave in it about fifteen minutes later than our time limit. But, Ron allowed us and recieved our draft. I think that each member of our group worked hard to complete our draft well. So, I am very grateful to our team members. And I believe that tomorrow presentation will succeed.
After dinner, we played soccer. Everyone was very active. So, I am tired and want to go to bed as soon as possible but we must practice presentation. Goodbye!

Wednesday

Today,we did presentation in Andrew's class.
But・・・we did not know about doing presentation in the class.So,we didn't finish making draft.
Andrew gave us 20minites for preparing to do presentation.We prepared in a hurry.
We couldn't do perfectly・・but we have two days!!

After class,we went to Fairview mall.I bought many souvenirs!
I think Japanese like maple cookies and maple syrop.

Fear of Questionnaaire

Yesterday, we make a questionnaire. Therefore, we send out questionnaires for people in Waterloo. Most people answered the question willingly.Some people refused to answer.I supposed that some people refuse to answer,but there was one happening.

I asked one group that if they answer the question. Then they said "OK!" , so I felt relieved to hear that.But it was mistake! They asked us "What is your business service?" "What is membership fee? Why we need to pay membership fee?"

We were confused that we couldn't answer these questions and understand what they say.It was regrettable for us. So we decided to study English more.I want to speak English more fluently and understand rapidly by the end of this program.

Started second week

In this morning, we thought that how can we get audience attention in the presentation. And, we made a pair to practice introduction of the presentation. I thought it was difficult. In this afternoon, we took a vocabulary test. I worried about this, but I managed to answer some questions. After dinner, our team discussed business plan. We have just about made questionnaires. So, we are going to ask people in person.

Holiday!!!!

Today is soooo nice and busy day.First,we went to CN tower.It is so high and modern.In the tower,we could see around the Canada.I was moved by view.View is beautiful but scary .It is scary to see under the floor.

Next,we went to big shopping centre.It's so big that I can't understand where I am.There are lots of stores.I think everything is cheaper than goods in Japan.I was surprised that there are so many starbacks coffee in one shopping centre.

In the evening,we went to restaurant.There are so many kind of foods.We could eat sushi,ice cream,meat and shrimp.It was very nice time because we can eat various foods at the same time.

In the bus,almost everybody slept.It was a busy day but very pleasant day!

6th day

Hello, everyone! How are you?

We went to St. Jacobs Outlet Mall.
I bought shoes, maple cookies, ice wine tea pack and maple tea pack.
In the mall, many product are selled.But almost everything is canadian size, so fitable products for me were few.
I'm very tired now.

fifth day!!!

We had a big event today! It's the first presentation. Before that, we learned order of presentation at Kin's class. It helped us. So our presentation went smoothly. All team made up good presentation. Each idea was interesting. But I think our idea is most interesting and attractive!! I was a one of the speakers. But I was so nervous. We'll keep doing our best, so next presentation will become better than today's. I think we have to interview Canadian. Because we must know what do Canadian people think of our "free sample shop service".
After class, I went common room to watch Beijin Olimpic. It was so fun.

Today, we searched on the free samples shop that is in Japan. There are a lot of kind of goods, not only food and cosmetics, but also stationary, CD, DVD, and a ticket for basketball game. A variety of shops participate in the free sample shop. In addition, once we pay a year membership fee, we can bring samples max 10 goods one day.Free sample shop is play a important roll for new goods which is not launch out public.

1st day

Today we had introductions about classes. In this class,we introduced ourselves to the teacher. And we were made it know the details about presentations and coming plans. Listening to this notes, I excited myself. But in presentation skill class,it is hard for us to make a creative introduction. I thought we must have a strength for the final presentation in this Renison Program. This local food is delicious but it makes me be pining for Japan. I reconfirmed my feelings for Japanese food at this experience of canadian food. But I want to try various this valuable things actively and enjoy with my team members and fellows and teacheres!
