My Summer Vacation


I had a good summer vacation. It was first for me that so long and no homework vacation, so I was very happy. The first day of summer vacation I went to Osu with my friends. However I had been to Osu once, I don’t kwon much there. It takes 30 minutes for me to go there, but I was 40minutes late that day. I was very sorry for waiting my friends. First, we gathered in coffee shop near the station. We ate lunch there, and chatted for 2 hours. After lunch, my friend took me to the Osu shopping arcade. It has a lot of shops and foods, so it is really fun. We enjoyed shopping. I bought a T shirt with camisole and a one-piece dress. The T shirt was famous brand, but 2900 yen. The dress was 900 yen! It was so cheap! I was very surprised. Osu is good place for shopping because it has many cheap and cute shops.




During The Bon Festival, I and my family went to grandpa and grandma’s house. They on my mother’s side live in Hachijo Island, and they on my father’s side live in Yamagata Prefecture. First we went to Hachijo Island by plane from Tokyo. Do you know Hachijo? it is the southernmost point of the Izu archipelago. There was not so hot. I could live without air conditioner! That’s unbelievable! I saw them after an interval of two years.When they looked me, they seemed to be happy. I spent on idling away at home, driving and shopping. One day I went to the mountain to get a Nakata’s ice-cream with my sister, father, aunt and uncle. It is famous ice-cream, and famous people come to Hachijo to eat this ice-cream. It is very delicious.




I spent 4 days in there; I went to Ueno in Tokyo. I’m interested in art, so I went to Tokyo Metropolitan Art Museum. A Vermeer exhibition is held there. There were many beautiful pictures, I was much moved.After that, I went to Yamagata Prefecture. My grandpa and grandma looked fine, so I was eased. Because they were farmer, I could eat as much as I liked corns and grapes. When I was a child, I often went to their field to harvest. I thought country life was good, too.


The rest of summer vacation I spent on joining to the summer camp, working part-time in curry restaurant, and doing club activity. Summer vacation of this year was full. But I have to study English!!
