Japan Sick!!

Recently, I have been Japan sick. I do nothing but think about Japan since I came here. There are three reasons for my condition. First, I love reading novels, comics, and fashion magazines. I am in America, so I can’t read the latest things. I can’t read the books I want to read. I can read novels on a computer, but I am not satisfied. My stress gradually piles up. Talking of computer, I can’t watch movies, promotion videos, and animation on You Tube on this campus. When I was in Japan, I watched You Tube a lot. Before coming here, I thought that I could watch You Tube on this campus, but I can’t do that. I am really sad and disgusted!!

Second, American meals do not agree with me. I do not like fast-food, and American snacks. American meals are too oily, strong, and big. American snacks are too sweet, and strange. In addition, there are various kind of meals in Japan, so America has fewer meals than Japan. I was surprised that there is no spaghetti with cod roe. This is in favor with youth. I am sick of American meals, and I am homesick for Japanese meals. When I go back to Japan, I want to eat Japanese meals.

Lastly, I think that my English has not improved at all. I often feel down about it recently. In class, I can understand teachers’ English effectively. Teachers speak so slowly that I am able to understand, but I can’t understand what other native speaker say to me. They speak too fast, so it is hard for me to hear what they say. When we talked with Sunrise elementary school students, I scarcely understood them. In addition, I couldn’t make my English understood. Therefore, recently I really nervous and Japan sick.

I want to go back to Japan early. If I can't do that, I will die because of Japan sick!!
