Today in class, we talked about the topic “Can Japanese comedy become part of the tourism industry?” I thought that Japanese comedy can become a tourism resource if people make enough effort. There are some problems with Japanese comedy. For example, many jokes use puns and wordplay, so they are hard for foreign people to understand if they do not know Japanese well. Also, some comedy is based on Japanese news, history, or traditions, so people from other countries may not understand why it is funny. However, I think there are also positive points. Not all Japanese comedy depends on language. Physical comedy, such as funny movements, facial expressions, and actions, can be understood by people from different cultures. This kind of comedy is easier for foreign tourists to enjoy. In addition, if shows use English subtitles or give simple explanations before the performance, foreign audiences can understand the story better. Learning a little about Japanese culture through comedy can also be a fun experience for tourists. Because of these reasons, I think Japanese comedy has the potential to attract foreign visitors. If comedians and theaters think more about foreign audiences and use simple ideas to help them understand, Japanese comedy can become one reason for people to visit Japan.

"Ding!" I received a message from the airline that told me that my flight was cancelled due to some unknown reasons. This was an actual thing happened during my summer trip. Before the trip, I made a perfect plan for the next several days. All the schedules really depended on all the plans before it went well. After everything was ready, I got started my trip. Before my fight would take up, I received the message mentioned above. I felt really sad! I just chose a budget airline to save some money to book better hotels and have tasty food. I even accepted the fact that the airline wouldn't offer lunch , but I never expected the flight would be cancelled. In that case, the only thing I could do is to spend much more money to book another airline which could take off on time. Fortunately, the rest of the trip made me fell really relaxed until the night befor returning. When I woke up to drink some water, I checked a notification on my phone that said my train was cancelled. Oh, I didn't care at that moment. I spent more money booking a flight, then fell asleep again. Though it's a great trip, I exceeded the budget a lot !

Stop saying "I don't know" in your meetings 💼 In a high-stakes meeting or presentation, saying "I don't know" can sometimes feel like you’re losing momentum. To sound more professional and maintain control, try these "Career Advancement" alternatives: 1️⃣ When you need to check the facts: • "I don’t have those specific figures / that information to hand, but I will get back to you by end of day." 2️⃣ When you want to provide a partial answer: • "Based on the data I have right now, [X] is the case, but let me verify the final details for you." 3️⃣ When the question is outside your scope: • "That’s a great question. [Name] is actually the best person to speak on that, but from my perspective..." The Goal: You aren't just giving an answer; you are managing the conversation. This is the difference between "textbook English" and Boardroom Fluency. ________________________________________ 🟢▶︎▶︎ Want to master the language of leadership?

Today was a busy day, and I feel a little tired now. In the morning, I went to the dentist. I do not like going there, because the sound and the smell make me nervous. The treatment was not very painful, but I felt stressed the whole time. When it was finished, I felt relieved. I was happy that I did not need to worry about it anymore. After that, I went to an eyebrow salon. It was quiet and clean inside. I lay down and closed my eyes while the staff worked. It was relaxing, and I almost fell asleep. When I looked at my face in the mirror, my eyebrows looked neat. My face looked better than before, and it made me feel more confident. In the evening, I started to feel strange. My body felt hot, and my head hurt. I checked my temperature and found that I had a fever. I was surprised because I felt fine earlier. I think my body got tired after a long day. I decided to stay home, drink water, and take some medicine. Today was not perfect, but I learned that I need to rest more and listen to my body. I hope I will feel better tomorrow.
