My Treasures at MSU By Aoi Takahira
My greatest treasures at MSU are all the experiences , teachers , and friends . In my 094-2 class , I met many good friends and we were able to hang out together and have a great relationship with each other . I also met one of my best friends in MSU , Yi .
The most important things I learned at MSU :
Making progress or not depends on how I try in new and hard situations . It was hard for me to try new things so I cannot make progress as much as a I can , but I realized that trying was the most important for me .
Being interested is very important . Americans are very interested in various things ; they know a lot , so I want to be like them .
I visited some schools through my program , and I think I want to give children in Japan the opportunity to learn about foreign cultures when they are young . Classrooms in America also look very colorful and enjoyable , so when I become a teacher , I want to make my classroom similar .
Since I had great friends who invited us so many times and gave us the opportunity to experience American culture , I must also let my international friends in Hiroshima University experience Japanese culture .
