Hi from New Zealand

Hi. Hope you guys are doing well.

The semester will soon finish and students are busy with their prep for the exams.

A couple of days ago, there was an International Study Farewell Ceremony at University. I desperately wanted to take part in the ceremony despite the fact that it was only for the full-time students who had already completed the courses. Such was the case, however, the office people were kind enough to listen to my request and allow me to join the certificate-awarding ceremony.

A lot of people, from other countries took part in it, and Japanese were only two, including myself. The ceremony also signified the arrival of the farewell season when we have to say good-bye to each other and the students will be on their way to go home respectively. Naturally I was really sad.

Back in language school, I have a lot of assignments, such as an essay writing, a presentation, reading a book and so on, so my student unlike other full-timers will continue. Oops, class time! I've got to go now. (Ayako)
