I have read great journal.
I have read the article "A vaccine is joyful news - but am I really ready to go back to the world?" written by Emma Brockes. I am very impressed with it. She said exactly what I'd like to say! See following phrase in the article.
“I want to be around people who don’t want me to speak,” a friend wrote to me the other day by text – we don’t talk on the phone; it requires too much effort – and I understood precisely what she meant.
I mean we were over-connected each other. There was no time to stop and think about ourself. We had to do something or meet someone endlessly without any time to look back. We believed that busy life was an indicator of success. Corona-19 is obviously bad news, but it gives us chances to look back.

I want to write about my hobbies.
[hobby one. Listen to music]
I like various styles of music. Especially rock music and metal music. Some time ago, I liked Mongolia music. Recently, my favorite music is Chinese popular music. Zhoushen is a splendid singer. Tang Hanxiao is a talented singer-songwriter. There are also many excellent singers. For example, A Yunga, Zheng Yunlong and so on. I especially focus on the Chinese entertainment circle. My favorite musicians: China, Zhoushen(I am a raw rice), Tang Hanxiao, Mao Buyi, Summer. Mongolia: THE HU, Khusugtun etc.

Automobiles
Today, I started to go to a driving school to get a driving license. I already have a driving license for motorbikes, so I've decided to get a manual transmission license because changing gears is exciting. Nowadays, the number of MT cars is decreasing, and automatic transmission is common in Japan. Driving an AT car is easier, so people tend to have only AT license. How about in your country?

Dry Air
In winter, my room is way too dry. I have a hygrometers. It always shows less than thirty percent. Sometimes, it doesn't measure humidity because it's too low. I easily get sore thort from dry air. I stock up some candies. I suck them when I have a sore thort. I sometimes dry laundry indoors to keep the air moist, but it doesn't work well. I'm interested in using a humidifier, but I heard that it's a bit hard to maintain. If you don't maintain it properly, mold could grow in the device. I should probably buy a humidifier and use it correctly so as not to dry in the room.

The rise of late night anime
This week, tens of thousands people on twitter celebrated 10th anniversary of starting "Madoka Magica" on the air.
Ten years ago, I was still a high school student and indifferent toward Japanese anime. Moreover, I didn't have enough time to watch TV in order to work hard on studying for university entrance exam. But, even if I watched just one episode of these popular anime, such as "Madoka Magica" and "STEINS; GATE", I would be addict to them.
This decade must be a golden age for late night anime, which are broadcasted on TV and targeting for teens and adult audiences. The movie of late night anime had never earned over two billion yen until "Madoka Magica" sat a new record.
Last year, twelve movies earned over two billion yen in Japan even though theaters restricted the number of seats. Two of them are late night anime. One is my favorite anime "Violet Evergarden" and the another is "Demon Slayer". Surprisingly, "Demon Slayer" earned over thirty billion yen and established a Japanese record.

After self-study at night, I returned to my dormitory, and at that time, the room was very lively. There were about eight or nine girls around Liu Xixi. Each girl held a piece of cake and ate joyfully. I suddenly thought of the cake my older sister bought me, but I didn’t have time to figure out what was going on. Liu Xixi immediately held my hand and happily told me:“I am very happy that I didn’t expect someone to know that today is my birthday, and thoughtfully brought me a cake. And there are beautiful flowers and blessing words on the cake. It’s a pity that you came back late and didn’t see it.I was dumbfounded at once. Liu Xixi handed me a piece of cake and said “they all don’t know who sent the cake. You are the only person who left the room last and I guess you must know who sent the cake. Please tell me that person, is it girls? Or boys?Right then, someone joked"it is definitely a girl. Our Xixi is so ugly, which boy would like her?Xixi was very disappointed after hearing this word. She held my shoulder and urged me"quick, tell me” at the moment, I almost wanted to spoke out loudly that the cake was my older sister bought me. But seeing the happiness on each person’s face and the look of expectation on Xixi’s face, I can’t bear to turn everybody disappointed and make a fool of Xixi, so I had to say a lie “he is a handsome boy" wow "with Xixi’s hail, everybody clapped together. Somebody said that guy must have a crush on you secretly"Xixi laughed.

Los puentes
Mi ciudad tiene muchos puentes porque está al lado de una bahía y tiene ríos cruzándola. Cuando estaba en la secundaria, tuve que cruzar al menos un puente al día. Un verano, una amiga me visitó de otra ciudad. Cuando salimos del aeropuerto y cruzamos un puente enorme en camino a mi casa, ella estaba asombrada a ver tanto agua por todos lados.
Creo que vaya donde vaya en mi vida, siempre me gustaría tener las aguas cerca.

Journal 1/9/21
It seems in the winters, in the north of Canada, there are roads everywhere, even though they are just frozen lakes. This might be a beautiful scenery in the world. Although I have a short experience of fishing, I have never fish on a frozen lake. The fish in your picture is big, and I think it would be delicious because it is purely feral. I originally wanted to fish some big feral fish in a wild river, but they were all small crucians. I don’t like fishing in a fish pond because I don’t think it’s very interesting, and it wastes too much time. So I quit after about one year’s fishing.
There are several words that I can’t catch well in the penultimate paragraph. Could you please write them down for me?
The question in the last photo is how to say “hello” in Chinese, and my answer is 你好.
Besides, I want to know about New Year’s Day in Canada, and how many days off.
Moreover, do Canadians celebrate the Chinese New Year?

Unterhaltung
- Es ist nicht zu spät für diese Art des Gespräches?
+ Ist es? Ich denke so nicht.
- Manchmal wünsche ich, dass ich Zuhause geblieben wäre.
+ Wieso?
- Alles war einfacher damals.
+ Ja und? Nicht alles muss immer einfacher sein. Du hättest ein langweiliges Leben mit Kinder wie eine Trophäenfrau gehabt. Klingt das ein Leben, das du haben möchtest?
- Nein, aber wenigstens hatte ich die Sicherheit und die Unterstützung von ihnen.
+ Von deiner Eltern?
- Ja, sie haben immer geträumt von Großkindern... Sogar, wenn sie von ihm kommen.
+ Vielleicht war das ein bisschen gemein. Ich entschuldige mich, Ich meinte das nicht so... Hör mal, iss die Pizza und nimmt die Waffe. Wir gehen schießen.
- Werden sie nicht uns hören?
+ Es ist möglich. Aber sie können uns nicht sehen und das ist unser Vorteil.

Надо сразу написать статью до того, как другая газета её напечатают.
Прости, что я не позвонила тебя вчера. У меня вылетело из головы.

La lluvia de ideas
¿Cuándo eras niño, te dijera tu maestro que fuera "tiempo de lluvia de ideas"? Aunque creía que era inútil y un perdido de tiempo, ahora veo su valor. Hay veces donde no puedo pensar en una idea de escribir. Cuando sucede, tengo que hacer un paso atrás y crear una lista, aunque a menudo la hago mentalmente. Me he dado cuenta de que es muy difícil escribir de algo al menos que tengas la actitud correcta. Por supuesto, cuando necesitas escribir de algo para practicar el idioma que estudias, no siempre tienes mucho tiempo. A menudo, solo tengo alrededor de treinta minutos en que puedo escribir. Esta falta de tiempo lo hace muy difícil pensar.
Para acomodarme a este problema, uso tres soluciones. El primero es un generador de ideas, los cuales los puede encontrar en muchos sitios de web. Este es útil porque te dan temas diferentes, y tienes que usar todo tu vocabulario para contestar la pregunta. Es aconsejable que decidas el tipo de generador que quieras antes de que necesites. Hay dos tipos principales, los de preguntas y los de temas. La mayoría del tiempo, uso los de temas porque me siento que me den más flexibilidad.
El segundo es el uno en que planeo todos mis temas con anticipación. Sin embargo, este puede llevar mucho tiempo, así que solo lo uso ocasionalmente. El tercero es la lluvia de ideas, el cual es muy útil pero también puede llevar mucho tiempo. Al fin y al cabo, creo que es importante que sepas lo que quieres escribir para que puedas ahorrar tiempo.
Dos oraciones con "por si acaso".
1. ¡Lleva tu impermeable por si acaso llueve!
2. Estoy por salir el consejo porque es muy aburrido, pero voy a quedarme, por si acaso.

There is an interesting word in English and German: banana republic. Of course, the banana republic is not a country that voted with bananas. This word generally means some small countries with unstable regimes in Latin America. In the twentieth, some giant US companies started to cultivate fruits in those countries and output them to the US. By economic stress and corruption, those companies have a bigger influence on those countries, including supporting dictator and human rights violations.
Some European social media comments: these days, the US has become a banana republic itself. Does Chinese have this word?

The internet has become a necessary thing in people’s lives. According to Ofcom, in April 2020, the British spent 4 hours on the internet every day. Compared with what they did in April 2019, it was 30 minutes longer. Now things we can do on the internet are getting more and more. For example, working, shopping, watching videos and playing games. The Internet has many benefits. For instance, we can send and receive emails and chat with family and friends. There is also plenty of information on the internet, so we can study, read ebooks and listen to music. Recently, people think shopping online is cheap and has various choices. Although the internet has a lot of advantages, it also has some disadvantages. For example, some people, especially young people and children, spend too much time on the internet and are addicted. Apart from that, children can communicate with people online, but sometimes, they will be bullied. Although the internet has disadvantages, it is still very useful and changes our lives every day.

Snögubbe
Idag snöar det fortfarande. Jag gick ute och gjorde en anka av snö. Det var min första gången med att göra något av snö. Jag visste inte att det var svårt att flytta snön runt. Jag stannade ute i två timmar. Jag är jättestolt över min anka och jag hoppas att det fortfarande ska finnas snö imorgon så att jag kan göra ett annat djur. Jag hoppas också att ingen förstöra min anka, särskilt uttråkade barn...
Efter det gick jag tillbaka hem och jag kände mig jättekall och trött. Jag är faktiskt lite sjuk precis nu, och jag hoppas att jag kommer att må bättre imorgon eftersom jag vill göra många fler snödjur!

Laufen
Heute hat sich gut gefühlt. Seit einigen Tagen gibt es in meiner Stadt Schnee und das Wetter war auch nicht so gut.
Aber trotz des Schnees bin ich heute gelaufen, da gestern meine Laufkleidung ankam und ich fühlte, dass ich rausgehen musste, um frische Luft zu bekommen.
Es hat sich gut gefühlt und ich bin glücklich dafür.

Dix Pour Cent
Je regarde à nouveau actuellement la série télévisée française "Dix Pour Cent" sur Netflix.
Je l'ai regardé pour la première fois il y a environ deux ans, et je l'ai aimé beaucoup. C'est vraiment drole. Maintenant je essaye d'apprendre le français donc je la regarde à nouveau avec les sous-titres en français en lieu de l'anglais. Tous les personnages parlent très vite donc
J'ai besoin d'utiliser le bouton "pause" assez souvent! Je suis impatiente de regarder la nouvelle saison quand elle est disponible sur netflix.

Bananenrepublik ist ein falscher Begriff
Ich glaube, dass der Ausdruck Bananenrepublik weltweit benutzt ist. Dieser Ausdruck beinhaltet natürlich Vorurteile, weil es Länder gibt, die neben dem Äquator liegen und nicht "unordentlich" sind. Gleichzeitig gibt es Länder, die sehr weit von dem Äquator liegen, wo eine Diktatur oder etwas Ähnliches beherrscht.
Meiner Meinung nach sollten die Menschen einen anderen Ausdruck benutzen. Es gibt uns eine falsche Idee, dass die Regierungen von allen (und nur) Ländern neben dem Äquator tun und lassen kann, was sie wollen, wenn es in der Realität solche Länder überall gibt, auch in kalten Gegenden.

New year, the same goals (maybe not all).
This week has been hard for the amount of activities I've been doing, I never thought of this new year will begin in this way. (And for me, it's also funny). It can be a good sign about what will happen this year.
But it's a new year and the most people make their goals to face their new activies and main goals for the present year.
For my part, I keep working in many of my main intermediate-term goals in this year.
As one of them is to learn English, I'm going to begin reading graded reader's books according to my level, I was trying to read the novel series of divergent but it's a little overwhelming to read them in my level. I can do it, but I don't enjoy too much stopping my reading to consult the dictionary for difficult words and difficult structures. I'm going to get used to them little by little.
I'm also going to try to post here two times per week my reviews of the books I'll read.
I wish a Happy New Year to all! :).
