Yesterday。笑lol
A French girl in my class brought this in、
It's French salami、and everyone tried some including the teacher。笑lol
My study abroad period is reaching its end。
Recently the second half of our classes has been focused around discussion、which is really fun。
It's not actually a serious discussion、but just a change to share our opinions。
Up until now、I've been working as an idol in Japan、so unconsciously、
I've always been careful to make sure that I'm not hurting anyone、
Or making anyone feel uncomfortable。
But now I can think more about myself。
I've gotta do it this way。
I've gotta see it this way。
This is something else that has unconsciously become my new normal。
I was working as Kamikokuryo Moe、
But I feel like that Kamikokuryo Moe was one that only really existed on stage or on TV。
(I was different with the members 笑lol)
Before I went on this holiday、I wasn't aware of this、so I wasn't looking to express my true feelings、and I couldn't express myself in English、because I didn't have the skills to do so。
And honestly I was really bad at discussions because of all this。
But recently、I've started thinking about things in simpler terms。
Rather than it being scary to discuss things with people from different countries with different lived experiences、since all people are different、you can learn so much from our differences。And since I can now see this more clearly、it's not scary to share my own opinion anymore either。
So rather than always trying to make sure that other people understand me and agree with me、I'd to just to forward with my own true opinions。
(I hope that there aren't any misunderstandings、
But it's not that I think negatively about being an idol at all、more than I'm glad to have realised how that job affected my way of thinking without me realising it)
And、recently、I made the goal、
To talk to lots of local people about things I'm interested in
Before I finish my study abroad。😌
I say I've set this goal、but I've actually already started it 、
And while talking to people still makes me nervous、New Zealanders are all so welcoming!and so kind。I'm so grateful、、、、
Plus、it's really fun!!
I've talked for a long time now、
But through this language course、
I want to be able to communicate with people from around the world。
That is the simple reason that I started on this whole adventure。
Now I realise that I've learned so much more than that、and I'm just so glad that I decided to do this。
I want to learn lots more in the time I have left😌
