Japan vs Paraguay


Yesterday at 10 p.m.(+8hrs) Okada Japan had a match against Paraguay.
Both hadn't never went through quater finals.
Okada Japan completely protected their goal.
Both team couldn't get any goals so had to fight for about 120 minutes.
And finally,the first PK was done at the World Cup 2010.

Okada Japan lost and couldn't go through the quater final.
But they did their best.
I'd expected that Japan would lose some goals,because Paraguay is one of the strong teams.
According to FIFA,the ranking of Paraguay is better than that of Japan.

Although,Okada Japan lost but it was so impressive.
Okada Japan looked like 'samurai'.
Their fighting spirit reminded me of Japanese way of 'bushi-do'!!

My mom took video call via Skype so I was able to watch at real time.
I was glad to watch and share the same feelings as people in Japan.
When the game finished,my heart was full of impression...
If I couldn't have watched it,I would have regreted so much:_(

Thanks,Okada Japan!!

I realized how much I love soccer through this FIFA World Cup 2010.

Food Inc


Yesterday,I went to see a movie,named 'Food Inc'.
It was a documentary film,about safety of food.
I always tend to choose fast food and cheaper food.
But it is not always safe.
Let's choose organic products!!
I try to buy them as possible as I can:)

Let's play soccer♪


Yesterday,I went to Kings Park with my friends for the first time in the afternoon.
About 12 people came;Japanese,Korean and Taiwanese.
We devided into 2 teams.
We only played 15 minutes or so,but it was enjoyable.
The score was about 3vs2 or so,my team lost,haha:)

When we went back to the city,it had been getting dark.
The night view from Kings Park is very beautiful!!

Okada Japan



Congratulations!! Okada Japan went through to the final tournament of FIFA World Cup 2010!!
Last Friday,they had the last match of Group E league,against Denmark.
I couldn't watch it on TV because it starts at 2:30 midnight and my host family isn't interested in soccer:_(
It's pity for only me not to be able to watch it although I love soccer so much,isn't it?!

They defeated Denmark!! The score was 3-1!!
Honda,Endo and Nagatomo got a goal!!
And Japanese Goal Keeper,Kawashima!! Amazing!! Cool:)

So now my laptop's back ground is Okada Japan♪
Tomorrow,they have the game against Paraguay at 10 p.m.!!
I wanna watch it!!
So I'm going to try;
I have Skype,so I can use video call.
So my mother will relay the match from Japan.
I hope it's successful!!

My favorite player is Micheal Owen,whose back number used to 10!!
Now the player who has the no.10,is Rooney.

But unfortunatelly,England lost against Germany,1vs3...

Open Campus



Today I went to Open Campus of a university.
I was surprised that in Japan most of Open Campus are held on weekends,but in Australia they're held on weekdays.

In Australia there are some state universities but few private ones.
Compared with Japan,there are much more private ones,some state ones.
And the number of universities in Japan is much more than that of Australia because population of Japan is much higher than that of Australia.

The buildings of the uni that we went in Fremantle were very old and sophisticated!!

I got a booklet.
My major is law and politics so when I looked at the corner of law and politics,a man spoke to me like
'Are you planning to get Second Degree?'and so on.
But...what is Second Degree?
So I said that I was a freshman last year in Japan.
After that he explained about the courses.

My host sister asked me if I would apply for this uni.It cannot be^_^;

What I wanna know is about university fee!!
My host sister was surprised that it was about $9,800.- and thought it was expensive.
But I thought it was natural.
In Japan,fees are expensive if we go to private uni,it costs about 1,000,000.-
Now Japanese currency is stronger than Australian dollars,so the fee is about 800,000 yen.
According to host mother,they have to pay student loan little by little after their graduation. Me,too.
When I told her about it,she was surprised.
Yes. I have to pay back my loan for 20 years after my graduation...
I will be 43 when I have finished paying back:_(

Anyway today was the first private university's open campus in my life!!
(I didn't went ones except for public universities' ones in Japan.Although I go to private university,but I went there for the first time when I passed the entrance exam^_^;)
