First Note

Every day, I find a lot of lovely things in Ann Arbor (A2) . It is sad that I am finishing up my study at umich soon because I love this school and this area! After my graduation, I will go back to my country, Japan. I really thank all the people who have shared wonderful time in this country with me, and also the people in Japan who have supported my study in the U.S.

So, I think it is great if I could express part of my gratitude toward them by sharing what I found lovely in A2 through this blog. Of course, including other people who live in A2, who used to live in A2, who are interested in A2, who are interested in me (???), EVERYONE IS WELCOME!!


Another purpose of this blog is to ease myself into publishing information. I hope I can develop habits of writing paragraphs which are easy to read, being careful and responsible about my writing, and using a camera - oh yeah, I am not a shutterbug while my father and older sister are. I have, rather, looked at people who are crazy about taking picture somewhat coldly... Moreover, I am a chicken and afraid of putting people off by taking picture of something around them (Some people say "Don't take MY picture!!!" even if I have never tried to take THEIR picture).

But pictures help fast and easy understanding of information; so I'd love to learn photography skills, including the way to take a picture without making someone mad.

Oh, it may be too long for the first note! Let's get the blog started now!!
