My Classmate Niki

Niki is my classmate; we study Japanese together at Laney College. Niki's father is Japanese and Chinese, and her mother is African. Niki is a beautiful girl, she has beautiful eyes and she has curly hair. She's got a beautiful slender figure because she is a ballet dancer. She told me she wants to speak Japanese because she wants to go to Japan in two years. She wants to open a dance studio in Japan.
Her grandmother is Japanese, so she has a lot of cousin in Japan and this will help her. Last year, she danced in New York, but she broke her leg, and so she needed to rest for a year, she will go back New York.
I am very surprised she eats a lot. Niki always eat in class, and she likes eating chocolate. I am interested to know why she can keep the fit even though she eats so much. She told me she exercises three hours a day, and she wants to keep her muscles strong. Niki's young brother studies in my class too, but he look very strong and tall. He likes eating too, but he just eats candy.

I like the coming spring

Today is a sunny day, my mom and I went to Golden Gate Park. The flowers are open, the lawn is green color. I like the fresh the air. My mom likes looking at the birds taking a shower in the fountain, but the birds are scared if someone stands too close to. They fly to a far away place to wait for people to leave the place. They look cute. The flowers are red, yellow, pink and white. It's a spring day. I think all of people like the coming spring.

2/28 Have a good night

Yesterday evening my classmates have a party for teacher's birthday, We ate at Japanese restaurant. The teacher is very happy, and most classmates were drinking of the sake. After the diner, my classmate got me a ride go to a interesting place. The store name is Fentons creamery, and the location at 4226 Piedmont Ave. Oakland. I like the nice place, I never know there is very crowded on the night. I was interesting why the people love here because there just sell for desserts, it's too sweet. Yesterday is a interesting day because some time raining, then it's stop, next time have the ice storm. I had wet for third, and I need to changed my clothes for third in the whole day.

1/22 Las Vegas

Las Vegas is an exciting city. My family and I went there in Jan.6-12 because my family went to an Electronic Show. My mom and I took a plane to fly from Oakland to Las Vegas. My sister and my brothers took a plane to fly from Hong Kong to L.A and to Las Vegas. When we saw each other, we were very happy. Ofcourse Las Vegas has a lot casinos, but I don't like that because people can smoke in the casino in Las Vegas. So I don't like smoking, but I like the food in Las Vegas. You can earily find buffets at different Hotels. Buffets are very convenient and delicious. I tried Wynn's Buffet. MGM Grand's Buffet, Bellegio's Buffet, and Treasure Island's Buffet, but I didn't like the last one. Las Vegas buses are very convenient toom, and you can take the Hotel's shuttle to go anywhere. Then ticket only $6.50 a day. At night, Las Vegas is beautiful. I like Bellegio's music fountain. Las Vegas is colder than S.F in the winter. Don't forget this year is Celine Dion last year singing. She will be singing at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace, Las Vegas. Every week on Thursdays and Wednesdays.

1/21 The Flag

Today I woke up early when I drink a cup of green tea, I look outside from the window. The sky is still clean, but today is a windy day. I looked at the birds flying in the sky. I looked at the flag on the Alameda County Court House. It was down to the half on the flagstaff, and the flag on an other building looked the same. So, I don't know what the story is about the flag because in my country, if an important person dies, the flag will be down to the half on the flagstaff. I don't know American culture too much, but I want to understand this, so dear teacher, could you tell me?

1/20 Busy Day

On the weekend, I'm very busy, I do a lot of homework because I take 3 classes at Laney College. One is grammar, One is writing, and one is Japanese. Of course I like salsa and play badminton classes, but I need time to prepare my Japanese and writing homework, there classes are very new for me. The Japanese word's look like Chinese, but the Japanese pronunciation is different from Chinese. I don't want to drop the Japanese, but I worry about my test. In the writing class I have to use ink on all handwritten work. My hand shook when i wrote my first paper because it was difficult to change my wrong words. I want my homework to look clean.
