I Can Brag!!!!!!!

I noticed some very important things and also I cried a lot for 4 days. It is because of presentations. We gave presentations to American audiences. We spent a lot of time on the presentations; it was very hard and we were very tired. Before the presentation day, we practiced many times and we couldn't sleep well and I think our teachers were also as tired as us. Before my presentation day, my friends helped me a lot. For example, my friends helped my powerpoint, gave me some advice and listened to my presedntation. It was very helpful for me. I could practice many times with my friends, so I wasn't nervous. On the day, everyone cheered for us. During our presentation, extension students cheered us on and everyone smiled. If I was getting nervous, to look their faces, I felt better and I could enjoy it. I could see everyone's faces and especially Eriko, Kanoko, Asami, and Megumi. Eriko looked at us from front door and she kept smiling the whole time. At that time she worried about her presentation and I knew her that she worked very hard by herself, she practiced a lot around midnight and she was busy, but she helped me a lot. And also I could see Kanoko, she laughed a lot and she has a very special voice. She fixed my powerpoint sometimes. Asami had a very big smile and she nodded a lot much, she sat in a good position, for 4 days she cheered everyone very much and I could see her kindness, and Megumi was using the camera and she jumped a lot while clapping. When I saw them, I almost cried a lot.

On the last day, everyone cried a lot and we were so happy, but everyone said "I'm so sad because we worked very hard but now, it's done." I don't want to go back to Japan and I want to study with extension students. I'm not as good at English as them, so everyone helped me a lot. Afresh, I could find and make good friends, it is extension students. During about 4 months, we could help each other. We know how much we worked very hard together. I'm so happy because I'm one of the extension students and I could be their friends. Extension students are special and also our teachers. Actually, I didn't like teachers because sometimes they had favoritism, but at MFWI, the teachers are awesome and I shall never forget their and my friends's kindness as long as I live.
