今日の昼ご飯
今日、12時から家族と昼ご飯を食べに行きました。僕の父との関係は良いですけど、母と父がとうに離婚したので母だけとレストランに行きました。そのレストランで祖父と義祖母と会いました。
今日は日曜日ですけど、たくさんのレストランは特別な献立があります。注文した食べ物はサンデーローストですが、イングランドの有名なローストビーフを組み込まなかったです。今日は注文した肉は七面鳥、それに他の組み込んだ食べ物はローストポテト（一番うまいと思います）と茹でた人参とえんどう豆とブロッコリー、もちろんヨークシャープディングも欠かさず！
昼ご飯を食べている間に、家族とちょっと話していましたが、明らかに義祖母は話すのが好きでした。その理由は、沈黙をさずに話し続けていたからです。これは間違いなく上なく失礼なことですが時々、「義祖母に聞かせるだけのためにここに来たのか」と思いました。
後少しで、皆解散しまして、家に戻りました。

私の一番好きな日本の映画
たくさんの映画を見ている。普段は毎週２本の映画を見ている。だいたいアメリカの映画を見ているけど、他の人よりよく日本の映画を見ている。私が小学校の頃、先生が小津安二郎の『お早よう』を見させた。子どもには難しくない映画だと思う。そしたら家族とたくさんの映画を見た。是枝裕和、濱口竜介などの映画が大好きだった。だいたい平らな雰囲気といい脚本がある。しかし、私の一番好きな日本の映画は黒澤明の『七人の侍』と思う。それは素晴らしい映画だ。以前の先生が『たとえ日本語を分からなくても、字幕抜きでその映画を見ることはできます。』俳優の表情を持って脚本を解る。でも多数の偉い映画だったら、日本の映画の中で一つだけ選び難い！

School Trip
I have a school trip from Monday to Friday this week. I procrastinated to pack my luggages, so I did the last Friday. My friend said she was also afraid if she could put everything in her luggages or not. I managed to put everything in my backpacks, but they are filled up.
Today, I checked again if I have put everything or not with my parents.
The trip will be taking five days and four nights which is my first time to go out for five days.
It is also the first time to go on a school trip in this country, so I'm kind of excited but I feel more nervous. This is because I will speak English all four days. It is a good opportunity to improve my English skills.
I can't write my diary entry for five days. But I am ging to write what I did on thsi trip after I come back!

Quelques pensées à le football
Cette semaine la coupe du monde de football a commencée en Amérique du Nord. Les coupes de football sont toujours des événements étranges pour moi. D’un part, je ne suis pas un fan de football, donc la couverture constante à la télévision et à la radio m’ennuient. Mais de l’autre part, beaucoup de mes amis aiment le football et ils ont plaisir à regarder les matches et à célébrer les victoires de leurs équipes. Même quand je ne suis pas intéressé par les matches, j’aime les voir heureuses.

Diary
I'm not sure whether delayed gratification is a popular idea all over the world, but I have been exposed to such ideas since middle school.
I have always wanted a trip to Chuanxi, and such a desire had settled in my heart for a month. But since our school hasn't announced the exact vacation time, I have had to delay booking hotels, flights, and so on. Up to now, I have just lost the initial passion.

De quoi est-on fait ?
J'aime les livres science-fiction, et j’aimerais en lire en français. Mais pour ça, j’ai besoin du vocabulaire scientifique, afin de comprendre le jargon des personnages ! Aujourd'hui je vais aborder toutes les parties qui font un corps, pour apprendre quelques mots biologiques en français. Pour commencer, il y a plusieurs niveaux à prendre en compte. On peut commencer par une approche basée sur les systèmes. Le système cardiaque est composé du cœur, des artères, des veines et du sang. Il sert à faire circuler le sang dans le corps, afin de provider les nutriments et l'oxygène à nos cellules. L’ischémie se produit quand la circulation est bloquée : une crise cardiaque, un AVC, etc. Il existe également des problèmes de pompage, comme une défaillance cardiaque. Le système pulmonaire est composé des poumons, des voies respiratoires et des muscles respiratoires comme le diaphragme. L’asthme est une maladie notable des poumons. Le système digestif est fait de la bouche, l'oesophage, l’estomac, l’intestin grêle et le gros intestin. Il a aussi les organes accessoires, comme l’appendice, le foie, la vésicule biliaire et le pancréas. La digestion implique la décomposition des aliments en molécules utilisables. Le microbiome est la collection de bactéries sur un corps, et le microbiome intestinal est devenu particulièrement connu ces dernières années. Le système nerveux incluant le cerveau et les nerfs. C’est le siège de la conscience et de la personnalité, et il a toujours fasciné les scientifiques. Le système endocrinien contrôle toutes nos hormones : la testostérone et les œstrogènes, l’insuline, l’hormone de croissance, l’hormone thyroïdienne, etc. Il est composé de nombreuses glandes. Le système musculo-squelettique est composé (étonnamment) de muscles et d’os. Le système urinaire sert à la filtration des toxines, et il a les reins et la vessie. Le système immunitaire est un peu plus mystérieux : il n’a pas un véritable quartier général. Les globules blancs sont faits dans les os, ils sont « formés » dans le thymus et ils se déplacent dans le sang et le système lymphatique. Un autre niveau possible est le niveau cellulaire. On a des organites : le noyau, les mitochondries, les ribosomes, etc. On peut aussi considérer le niveau moléculaire : les enzymes et les réactions chimiques. Maintenant que j’ai écrit ce texte, je peux voir que la plupart des mots scientifiques en français sont vraiment proches de leurs équivalents anglais. Ça me demande moins de travail, heureusement !

Un texto
Salut Chelo,
Je peux imaginer comment tu te sens, et demain sera difficile.
Mon seul conseil est de rester forte pour toi et tes enfants.
Vous devez exprimer votre tristesse.
Je t'envoie un gros bisou et un gros câlin, et dis-leur, s'il te plaît, passe ce message à Sara et Marco.
On pense beaucoup à eux, surtout aujourd'hui.

El beneficio retrasado de la toma de notas.
Cuando recoges un libro desde la última vez que lo dejó, la toma de notas es muy útil para refrescar la memoria. Recientemente, empecé a leer un libro que dejé de leer anteriormente, así que leí las notas la que tomé anteriormente. Debido a esto, lo recordaba fácilmente lo que ocurría en el libro. En ese entonces, pensé que la toma de notas era molesta, pero ahora me alegro de haberlo hecho.

Dating apps
Nowadays most people are searching for someone with dating apps.
There are a few reasons why it is the preferred way.
A person feels more confident texting in a calm setting than chatting in real life. Especially young guys often have a barrier, a wall in front of girls, they can feel anxious and frightened due to silence in a conversation.
Also, these apps use mind tricks when promoting themselves as gamification, addiction loops, social media engagement and so on.
They give the illusion of wide, unlimited choice, but drain your energy out at every step. It's like searching for tiny gold pieces in river sand.
A positive thing is that you can feel a vibe of the person or note some red flags just by looking at their photos or profile describtion with eighty percent likelihood.
But my main offensive point is that texting and dates happen a little forced, because you have no shared context that connects you.
So, I quite dating apps and stick to old-fashioned dating.
I think metting someone on the street or at a bar is better, of course it requires more courage.
But the best way is through shared activities or events. In this case you can move from strangers to casual friends smoothly and socially appropriate.
Also, I have heard the conspiracy theory about evil dating app that tries to catch you and never gives you suitable people, but I don't believe in it.
And I have known that Tinder is used mostly for friends with benefits or one night stands in Europe and North America, but in Russia culture people use it to finding serious relationship.
Is it true? What's vibe of Tinder in your place?

Life in the Woods
The environment in which we live, affects our mood and habits more than we think. In my childhood I have lived in many different surroundings, to be precise - I live Berlin, Germany. Berlin is a very big city and a lot of tourists love to visit Berlin every year, but in my opinion there are many beautiful places yet to discover. Most people who think of Berlin, speak about the crowded districts with many shops or clubs. I was born in Berlin and I would never move to these areas, I prefer to live at the rural corners of Berlin. When people describe the typical person that lives in Berlin, they often say: always in a bad mood and always complaining but where does this really come from? I think it’s the environment. Ever since I live in the corner of Berlin, I feel a lot more calm and relaxed. I love to walk in the woods and wide fields of grass. Of course, you need to make sacrifices for this: reduced public transport opportunities, seeing your friends less or a longer walk to next supermarket, but I would never change my life with someone, who lives in the crowded areas in Berlin. Everyone I met in the quiet/ less crowded areas of Berlin seems more happy, relaxed and generally more balanced in life. The answer is clear: If you live in a less crowded place, you will enjoy better life quality.

How do you study your chosen language?
I think recounting is the best way of learning languages.
Retelling a story is a great way to practice your target language.
This way forces me to open my mouth.
I tried to retell the biblical stories in English.
In my spare time, I pick out another video, and I'll retell the story in English.
I find this method to be very helpful for me.
I have been using Duolingo for one and a half years.
Duolingo is like playing a game.
On the journey of language learning, you are constantly motivated.
Duolingo is a good tool to expand vocabulary for beginners, but any advanced learners don't need Duolingo.
I enjoy listening practice and my accuracy rate is over 95%.

Restrooms
In Japan, many clean restrooms that can be used for free without asking staff are available everywhere.
Although they aren't as clean as those in cities, parking areas with restrooms can be found even along roads in the mountains and along the seaside.
Such restrooms are not always available overseas. Even if they are free, users sometimes have to ask staff for permission before using them. It's bothersome for me.
During a visit to Hong Kong, Hong Kong Disneyland had clean restrooms available, so I didn't have to worry and could eat and drink freely. However, in the city, I was worried about suddenly needing to use the restroom, so I hesitated to eat and drink outside the hotel.
Even though there aren't many clean restrooms that are available for free, why don't people living there mind?
They are accustomed to asking staff, "Can I use your toilet?", so they don't find it bothersome.

Cape Verde
It took Cape Verde 40 years from joining FIFA in 1986 until it made its debut on the World Cup stage in 2026.
How much do you know about Cape Verde?
Cape Verde was a Portuguese colony before independence.
When it comes to Cape Verde, the country has just a little over half a million people.
Of course as a Lusophone country, like Angola and Sao Tome and Principe, Cape Verde has a distinct culture that is noticeably influenced by the Portuguese.
The education system is the second best in all of Africa after South Africa, and it follows the Portuguese format.
Portugal is a key player in Cape Verde's inner circle.
The US has the largest Cape Verdean community outside of Cape Verde.
Out of the ten international destinations that their national airline flies to, two of them are actually in the US: one in Boston and one in Providence, Rhode Island.

Leo Messi
I'd like to tell you a story about Leo Messi.
His father was a steelworker and his mother worked part-time as a cleaner.
Leo was born in Rosario, Argentina.
Leo started playing soccer when he was just five years old, often using a soda can or a stone as a ball.
According to a family story, the first time he played, nothing happened when the ball came to his right foot. But when the ball rolled toward his left foot, he started dribbling as if he'd been playing forever. Soon Leo joined a local soccer club, where people notced his dribbling skills, along with his incredible speed and agility.
By the time Leo was 11, many people had noticed something else about him: Leo was a lot smaller than most of the other boys on the field.
Eventually doctors realized that Leo had a growth hormone deficiency, a disorder that leads to slow growth in children.
The medication for the disorder was very expensive, and his family needed help with paying for it.
So when FC Barcelona, one of the best soccer teams in the world, expressed interest in Leo and offered to pay his medical bills, he left Argentina and moved with his father to Spain.
Leo was 13 when he Joined the Barcelona team's youth academy.
He was quite thin and short, standing only around 138 centimeters tall.
His small size made him shy and quiet, so quiet in fact that he barely said a word for his first month with the team.
Leo traind at the academy for several years moving up quickly through the junior ranks.
When he was 16, he played in the top division for the first time.
The following year, at age 17, he broke the team record when he became the youngest player to score a goal for Barcelona during a league game.
From that point on , Leo with his powerful left foot, was a sensation in the world of professional soccer.
Medication did help Leo.
Although he is a professional male athlete, he's still pretty short, about 169 centimeters.
Loe has participated in many major events for Argentina, including the World Cup, that's the competition held every four years for the world's best soccer teams.
What makes Leo such a fantastic player is his amazing speed and skill with the ball.
In fact, bacause of his small size and ability to dart up and down the field, his nickname is the Flea.
Some people say that Leo can feel the ball and change direction faster than other players.
Leo has earned a lot of money playing soccer.
He is among the highest paid athletes in the world, earning millions of dollars a year for playing soccer and endorsing dozens of products.
Leo Messi is certainly a giant among professional soccer players.
Messi is not completely unable to speak English; he does speak some English sometimes.
His reluctance to speak English in public is due to his shyness.

Purple
Purple is my favorite color, but I will try to describe it, because it is so difficult. Let's go! First, it is a mix between red and blue. But if you don't know these colors, I will change the name to main objects to make it easier for you.
For example: red is like apples, tomatoes, whatever.
And the other one is blue, which equals the ocean and the sky.
When these colors/objects are mixed, they form my favorite color. In this case, purple.
To make it easier, lavender is the exact color.

El reto de hablar español en mi vida diaria
11.06.2026
Tomé todas las clases del programa piloto de Hola en marzo de 2026.
Desafortunadamente, es un poco difícil para mí hablar español en mi vida diaria porque mi familia no habla español.
Mis padres pueden hablar otros idiomas de Filipinas, como ilocano, bisaya, tagalo e inglés, pero solo entienden algunas frases y palabras básicas en español.
Mi mayor desafío es hablar sobre temas más complejos, como las noticias, la gastronomía, la literatura y los viajes.
A veces, pienso en francés cuando hablo español y me gustaría poder pensar únicamente en español.
