A Fruitful Visit

I visited WSU on September 28th. My partners were one Japanese and two Taiwanese students. They came to WSU as exchange students. The Taiwanese students had to study abroad for a year and then they were able to choose a school from any universities. I thought it was a wonderful system for studying abroad. WSU was a fantastic place to find new things. Because they were spending their lives as they liked and they did activities, they had a lot of opportunities to speak and hear English.

By the way, the WSU facility was also nice. First, I went to the dinning room to eat lunch. There was a lot of food, and it looked delicious. I ate pizza, a salad roll and fruit. They were good. After that, I went to my partner's dormitory. WSU has four different dormitories and they are very individual. Their room was very simple: there was a desk, a bed, a closet, a shelf and a bathroom in the room. It seemed a little uncomfortable for me, and if I lived there I might be lonely.

The WSU students' life style is different from MFWI life. I am living with group members so I have friends who help me and I often speak Japanese. I can say my opinion in Japanese. On this visit, I realized that I need to use English more actively in my daily life. I also realized the good points of MFWI. For example, we can live with our friends.

From this experience, I would like to improve my English skill.
