I haven't written the report for a while. I have been kind of busy currently.
Today I'd like to write my new updates Jan thru March.
I had my school off until Jan 5th. During winter vacation, I had some track practices, went out with my family, hung out with my friends etc.
Jan 4
I and my family went hiking and had lunch at the restaurant belong the beach. Where we went was actually near my HS. There were many tourists around there. It wasn't freezing and it was really good weather. We were able to see the horizon far away over the beautiful ocean!! The higher we went, the more beautiful the view of the ocean became. Here are some pics. I had a good lunch at the rooftop restaurant, and felt so relaxed up there.
This day was Momo's bday. I had school same as usual. During the morning track practice, I went to Hatsumoude which means I went to the shrine for first time of the year. It was near my school. Because it was kind of early in the morning, literally nobody was there. At night, we celebrated Momo's bday with cake. It was her favorite one, which we got at Costco. I can't still believe that she turned in 14. Time flies.
My HS had an entrance exam on the day so we had our school off. I went to Asakusa in Tokyo. It's like an hour away. There were bunch of ppl there. I talked to tourists from different country to take pics of them in front of Kaminari-mon. ( a pic below) But he said it's ok bc they've done, then somehow, he took pics of us.
There are many food carts so I enjoyed eating many snacks. After that we walked to Tokyo Sky Tree. It was near where we were. Tokyo Sky Tree is taller than Tokyo Tower. I can't even tell how tall it is. It was one of the most active days. On the train on my way home was super crowded. I was die tired when I got home. But I'm sure this day became a special memory with my friend.
I went to Tokyo again, this time, with my mom. My mom had wanted to visit national museum in Tokyo. I didn't expect visiting there is so much fun bc you know, it's museum. But actually it was interesting to see many stuffed animals and fossils of the dinosaurs. I also enjoyed sightseeing in Tokyo. I and my mom visited Ame-Yoko-Cho. There were tons of restaurants and shops along the train road, and so crowded with many ppl. We had lunch there. Then we walked to Tokyo station. It became dark outside on the way. Tokyo station looked beautiful with some lights. I got on the crowded train two days in a row which was great. I was super tired again. It was long fun day.
I had a final exam week. It was super long and I felt stressful. I tried hard to study. I really missed running bc we didn't have any track practice the week. I hoped it went over so soon... then it's over now yay!
March 9
I went to see a movie called RRR. My mom and older sis have seen it and they really liked it, so they suggested me to see it. It was an Indian movie, and 3hours long. I haven't seen any Indian movies. So I was sure it was gonna be a new interest to me. It was an action movie with musical. I haven't seen similar movies. I enjoyed it and I highly recommend it. If you have a chance, you definitely see it.
