It was a beautiful day today. Since it was the last day of our trip here, we spent the day shopping for souvenirs. I even visited an art exhibition when we were strolling around the malls and boutiques at city center. My dad bought a new pair of shoes. I bought a lot of gadgets, especially egg twisters. My mom, being my mom, bought a bagful of condiments like Shichimi. It's a bit strange to buy condiments while traveling, but she's always unique. Overall, we're all satisfied with our purchases and had an amazing trip.

Yesterday my colleague asked me to move in again. After knowing that I am living in a barber shop and the barber didn't ask me to pay during summer holiday (because he said he couldn't find a another tenant like me), she finally gave up. I still remember that a musician played and sang Jiang Kui's "An Xiang" for me, It was the first time I had heard that song played on the guitar and I found it unbearably sad. Some things can only be understood firsthand. When I was young, I heard someone playing Jiang Kui's melody. I enrolled in a guqin class. At that time in my life, I was stressed, so I had to give it up. Perhaps only people who move frequently can understand the travels in Jiang Kui's mid and later life. "But now your poet is getting old, and he has forgotten the love and lyrics; yet, he still resents the few flowers beyond the bamboo, for their chilling fragrance has crept into his chamber."

That is not easy to explain because it depends on a person. I think they have a good skill, hard worker and try to be friendly with others.

There are four members in my family. My father, my mother, my younger brother and I. My father is a businessman, my mother is a housewife, my younger brother is reading in class 8 and I am pursuing my bachelors degree. I love my family very much.

I am planning to go to Bandarban. This place is surrounded by nature. There are a lot of delicious fruits, vegetables and beautiful birds and animals.

I think a regular exercise is essential for people to maintain a mental and physical fitness. I am a sport lover. Table tennis was the first sport i played when i was eight, i found it attractive when i watched people played in the community center nearby my apartment. I saw the ball bounch back and fouth fast on the table and players was so committed to win, their passion were so attractive and influencial to children around them. At that time, we the baby boys always dreamt of playing like them in the future. There is one strenghtness the sport lover especially outstanding is the postive thinking that helps our life in all aspects. Thank u so much@@

How do you integrate cultural understanding into your lectures, ensuring that students gain not only subject knowledge but also an appreciation for global perspectives, particularly in a culturally homogenous setting like Japan? This is an essential question. To help students in Japan develop global perspectives, I encourage them to question the cultural assumptions they often take for granted. For example, when teaching about Islam, I start by asking students to consider how they view religion. Most respond that they don’t hold any particular faith. However, when I ask if they have visited a temple or shrine in the past year, most say yes. I then explain that this reflects a form of faith within our culture. Many students don’t consciously identify their beliefs as ‘religious,’ but they still engage in practices like visiting holy sites for good fortune. By highlighting these cultural norms, I help students become more aware of their own perspectives on religion. Once they recognize these underlying assumptions, they are more open to understanding other belief systems, such as Islam, without viewing them through a lens of comparison or judgment. This approach turns learning into an opportunity for mutual understanding rather than a way to determine which culture is ‘better.’

The last movie that I watched was Star Wars
