The summer vacation! I had alot of memories!!!!!!

First of all, I can say ‘’It was wonderful.” I came back my home town, Gero city in Gifu for a month. I got a drivers license, and met lots of friends. Today I tell you the summer vacation.

*Most of my vacation was spent to get a drivers license.

It was harder than I expected. Because to get the license, we have to pass the writing test and driving test.
On August 1st, I went to driver school first. In the day, I drove a car first, and I felt good, because I rode a car as a driver. It was exciting, at first. When I drove a car second and so on, I had a hard time in the car. Because there are lots of traffic rules. My brain was always mixed up, and I asked my instructor who sat next to me, “Is this right?”
There are various kinds of instructor in the driver school. For instance, who is strict, has a sense of humor and always spoke highly of my drive, and he always said “You are great driver!!!”, even when I drove badly. They were all great instructor. I love them. I enjoy driving and talking with them. When I rode with instructor who is same age of my mother, 45-year-old, I always consulted with him about my problems of love without my problems of how to drive a car. He advised me a lot, and we enjoyed talking. Anyway, I liked to drive the car, but I hate the study of paper test. I always met various friends each day after the school, so I didn’t do the study of paper test. So I fault 3 times in the paper test, and my friends, came to the school after me, graduated one after another. Also, some instructor said to me, “Until when are you in here?”. So, I studied so hard and graduated admirably! After I got the license, I always drove the car until I came back Nagoya! I love car and I can go everywhere I like.

*I also had a wonderful time with my friends in hometown.

Most of the Gero life I always met friends. The best memory is BBQ with my high school friends on August 10th. There were 9 girls including me, and we were the member of tennis club. Also, we are living Nagoya, Osaka and Gifu. We often have a party, but not everyone join always. However in the BBQ in this time, everyone was joined! It is for the first time for two years. So we were so exciting! We enjoyed talking, singing, dancing, fire work and so on. The party stared at 3,pm, and finished 2,am. It was loooong, but we had a wonderful time. In the next day we enjoyed playing tennis with, but we were immediately done in by played tennis under the sun. At the time, we realized we were not same condition compare to in the high school time!! We should build up our body more and more!

*Also, I went to some summer fastival with friends.

I saw fireworks and played sparklers. We shouted "Ta~MaYa~!!!!". It is a one of old word that is shouted when Japanese people see nice fierwork! Also, when I and friends lay on a hill and look up the clear sky at night,it was a little cool, we saw beautiful stars a lot! We saw three shooting stars! But we couldn't say our hopeness three times. It is more difficult than we will be a American President, I guess.

Anyway it was the best summer! Thank you for your attension!

Word counts, 512!
