レストランバルカニカ

私の一番好きなレストランはニューヨークにあります。なまえはバルカニカです。ブルガリアりょうりとちちゅうかいりょうりがありますから、ブルガリアの学生よくそこに行きます。ブルガリアりょうりはちょっとからくてしょっぱいですけど、たくさんあまいたべものもあります。


バルカニカはたかくないけど、とてもとてもおいしいです。一番好きなしょくじはバクラバです。これはトルコのデザートですが、とてもあまくてすごいですから、ブルガリアでたくさんの人バクラバが好きです。


バルカニカには、おいしいワインもあります。ときどきそこで友だちとワインを少し飲みます。


たいていそこでブルガリアのみんぞくおんがくをききます。ブルガリアの一番ゆうめいなうたはこれです。

Goals and Tips Again Again

Goals:
(Considering the fact that I was not able to fulfill most of my goals last semester such as understand 80% of the animes I am watching or engage in conversations with strangers, I would like to try to be modest this time)
  • I want to be able to talk to a Japanese person for 20 minutes on a non-engaging topic such as hobbies, schedules, weather, Princeton, etc.
  • I want to understand the topic of a conversation between two native speakers and generally what each person's claims are
  •  I want to learn more vocabulary that is used in everyday speech between teenagers such as girlfriends/boyfriends, parties, classes, etc.
  • I want to have a slightly less noticeble foreign accent when I talk in Japanese
Activities:
  • Go to Japanese table at least every other week, although I will probably come more frequently and talk to the students there
  • Talk to my friends who have taken more advanced Japanese classes
  • Go to Shibata sensee's office at least 4 times this semester
  • Talk to the exchange grad students that I see so often in the dining halls in Japanese
  • Watch anime every other week and identify single words by matching them to their translation in the subtitles
  • Anime shadow while doing this
  • Eavesdrop on conversations between Japanese people in the East Asian Library
