Hello. Today is the day I've been waiting for a Halloween party with my high school friends! After school, we're meeting up in Shibuya to grab some food and hit up karaoke. I'm so excited! Today I have classes from the first period to the fourth period, but I have something to look forward to, so I think I can push through. Speaking of Halloween, the last time I went to Shibuya, there was a person who was cosplaying “IT”. It seems really and very scary also everyone surprised it. Halloween is prohibited in Shibuya this year, but some people were cosplaying. I heard that Halloween is a big event abroad and I really want to go see it because I like horror movie!! Japan is not huge scale of Halloween and Christmas but I think family assemble scene is big event like New Year and “Shitigosan”. I like the most event is New Year. Which event do you like best?

Today, I will spend time with my girlfriend. It has been a while since we met because I was busy recently. I went to bed late last night, so I was worried I might oversleep this morning. Luckily, I woke up on time. My university is on break today, so 1 can enjoy the day without stress. We plan to have fun and relax together. I still have homework to do, but I haven't started it yet. I must do it after I come home or tomorrow morning. But for now, I want to forget about the homework and enjoy the moment. Spending time with her makes me happy. I think it is important to take a break sometimes. After today, I will focus on my studies again. I hope today will be a good memory. I will smile, laugh, and enjoy every minute. Let's make this day special. Saying all this...I feel a little shy now, haha.

Recently, I started watching a TV drama called The Blacklist. It’s an American crime and mystery series that follows a man named Raymond Reddington, a former government agent who becomes one of the FBI’s most wanted criminals. One day, he suddenly surrenders to the FBI and offers to help them catch other dangerous criminals on his secret “blacklist.” At first, I was just curious because I had heard that the show was very popular, but now I’m completely hooked. The story is full of suspense, and every episode has surprising twists. What I like most is the main character, Reddington. He is mysterious, intelligent, and sometimes funny, but also very emotional. His relationship with the young FBI agent, Elizabeth Keen, is especially interesting and complicated. I also enjoy listening to the English dialogues. The conversations are fast, but I try to catch as many words as I can. Watching this drama helps me improve my listening skills while enjoying a great story. I’m planning to continue watching it and see how Reddington’s secrets are revealed in the future.

Select the correct preposition.

One night, I went to Spotcha with my friend. We spent about three hours there, roller skating and playing darts. After that, we went to eat ramen for dinner. Usually, there’s a long line at that shop around lunchtime or dinnertime, and sometimes people have to wait for about an hour. But since it was midnight, we could get in right away. The ramen I ate in the middle of the night was super good and felt kind of refreshing. Then we went to a hot spring that was open late. After taking a bath, we drank coffee milk and relaxed. We stayed there until closing time. Finally, we went to the beach to see the sunrise. It was cloudy, but the view was still nice. I don’t usually stay up all night, so I was really sleepy. I was tired from driving, but it was such a fun night. I found many new things that I don’t usually notice, and I want to do something like that again.

Have you still remembered what new things were really popular in 2015? I remember that a lot of social medias appeared at that moments which replaced the traditional communication tools on computers. You might think that smart phones were the most advanced technology, or a gas-powered car with a music player was really cool. We never imagined that an electric car with an auto-driving system is many people's first choice. AI has got into our daily life. In that case, will your frineds still agree to meet you in person? So, we are forced to choose the ways of making friends, not we choose our favourite ways to make friends. The only thing we have to do is to master the new tool, then improve our daliy life with it. You can also predict how people make friends in 2035?

I'm under the pressure recently. I'm worrying about too many things. I'm worrying that I am not as good as my manager's expectations. I'm worried that my children's English is not good.
