Guitar Workshop

  



     I went to a guitar workshop at Beatnic which is a music store. A man who is a guitarist lectured us how to play the guitar well and how to create sound. His name is Yuya Komaguchi. His play is very surprising to me because his techniques were fantastic! He had been practicing in his own way.

Dear host family,
    
I am Satoko. Please call me Satoko. I’m a sophomore of KGU. I’m from Japan and my hometown is Ohzu town of Kumamoto in Kyushu. My hometown is famous for sweet potatoes and HONDA which is a famous Japanese motorcycle and car maker. Furthermore, there are so many people of real warmth, so I like my hometown. I hope you will come to my hometown once. I want to know about thee place where you live. Please tell me various things about that.

After that, this is aspects of my life. I like eating but I don’t like seafood dishes so much. I’m might not be able to eat them up completely but I will try to eat all as much as possible. I like music very much too especially Japanese rock music. I want to know the music that you listen to. If you like music, please tell me about that. I’m glad if you like music.

It is hard for me to wake up in the mourning especially in the winter season because it is very cold in winter, so I don’t want to move around. Also, I’m often told I am easygoing, so I do my work in my way. Although I would like to spend a lot time with you, my host family, I want to make time for myself in a day too. My weak point is dealing with people especially with communication. I think I am shy and introverted. Because of that, if I go on a homestay, I am anxious to fix my attitude. I want to be a more sociable person.

Finally, I have plans when I go there. I hope to visit a lot of sightseeing spots and areas. Which sightseeing area would you recommend? I hope you can take me there. I want to eat delicious foods such as local foods there. Please tell me your recommended dishes. What’s more, as mentioned above, I hope to fix my attitude. For that, I will try to join as many various events as possible. I would like to interact a lot. Moreover, I will treasure you my host family.
