This week was pretty normal except yesterday. I went for the school trip to Toronto yesterday. Almost every student met in front of the school at 7:30 and picked other students up at Minden Tim Hurton at 8 o'clock. It took about 3 hours to get to Toronto.

At first we visited Art Gallery of Ontario (near the CN Tower). It was not big gallery, but there were very lovely place. By the way, I met a Japanese woman there! Her name is Mayumi-san,and she talked to me first. She said "Excuse me but are you from Japan?". I said yes I am and we started talking. I asked her why she thought I am a Japanese because many people (i mean many Canadian) say there are no difference between Chinese and Japanese. She answered she didn't know but she can differentiate vaguely. I could understand what she wanted to say because I am a Japanses too.
Well,,,doesn't make sense? If you are not a Japanese,it's hard to understand I guess. But I don't know the difference between American and Canadian either. Oh well,I'm just kidding,hahaha.
It was very good conversation. However what a small world!! She was from Suita-city in Osaka and knew my high school. Possibly I will meet someboby who is come from my hometown,Sennan-city,hahaha!

Around 2 o'clock we left the gallery and headed for next place, Bata Shoe Museum. There were many many shoes of course. There were also the shoes which were used by famous people.
For example, Elton John and John Lennon. There was interesting place but it was kind of boring. When we left the shoe museum,it was 3:15 and we headed for Haliburton.

The school bus we got on ran for about 1 hour and stopped at the shopping mall for dinner and shopping. I didn't eat anything because I was sick since the day before. I didn't have a fever but my condition was worst. Yesterday morning was better than the day before but I had no appetite at all. Anyway I was shopping all the time. I bought some clothe at OLD NAVY and GUESS. Everything were 20~50% off because of Christmas. I really wanted to go shopping, so I was so glad.

When I got to the house,the storm was gone. I mean the kitchen was not crazy. I heard there were 47 guests and it wasn't buffet. But I helped dishwashing before I went to my bed room. Oh yeah!! I found a package from my aunt in my room. There were a cap and gloves and letter as the Christmas present. And also there was a cassette from my younger sister. There are some Japanese popular songs in the cassette. Wow,thank you so much!! I am very happy!
