My English friend

  I think that you have many friends, but, do you have friends speaking English? I have a friend like it. Her name is Green. She is half Japanese and half England. Her appearance is exotic, so many people think that she is non-Japanese. She can speak English well as if she is a foreigner. She have lived Japan for 20 years, though she is not good at speaking Japanese. My encounter with Green interested me in speaking English because she is sociable and she always talk to me in English.

  

  I could not hear her speaking. So I was not able to show my answers or ideas, and I did not try to use English because I was uncertain of my ability to speak English at first. But I longed to talk with her using the fluent English and she was so cool when she talked with overseas students. Then I actively talk to her and I try to show my ideas in English with body languages. And I watch a lot of TV programs of English conversation. If I learned new English words, I use them in the talking. I have spent days for about a year.

   Now, I came to be able to talk with her in English. It is not so bad. And I newly have a next goal. This is talking to many overseas students in my school. I think that you also try to do for your goal if you have aims. Let's talk to foreigner! It becomes your big first step. You may need much courage at first, but if you take a step forword, a big world await you in the future.
