My wonderful experience

For me, this trip was very hard but fun.
Every memory is precious.
And thanks to my friends, teachers and my host family, I really enjoyed this study tour.
I will never forget this trip to Australia.

Anyway, summertime is finally here!!
Now we can do whatever we wanna do. Of course we can sleep as late as we want to.
Let's enjoy summer!!!!!!

This is Kazuaki.

The day before yesterday, we finally finished our program, "oversea EAP".

Friday, our last class was presentation of marketing plan. We had several time for preparation, so each presentation were well-done!!

after that, we went to The Broncos Club, and had delicious lunch, and received our Cert for EAP.

In this 3 weeks, we had very hard work as well as having fun.

our 3 weeks were VERY FULL!! It might be better than other countries....(^^

Anyway,

Good luck!!

Work....

Hi this is Tomoko MIYAKE.

As Emi wrote, Business Project is really hard.

We have been working on many hours after school in a computer lab these days,

however one of reasons we have to work on at school is

that we can't connect our laptop to the Internet.

The other day I left school about 22:30.

But working on with friends is also fun, I wouldn't do this if I had to do alone.

Studying at school, I have less time to be with host family which is the only thing really sad.

Anyway, I have to back to my work.

I wish we can have a wonderful ending.

Thanks.

Gold Coast

Yesterday 15th of August, almost all of us went to the most beautiful place in Australia.

It is"Gold Coast"!!

Paris Hilton and many distiguished people from various field come to visit and get refreshed there. we could not swim in the sea because it is too cold and also school prohibited us to swim.

why we can't feel our summer in Australia even Canada and America groups enjoy their summer. Here's cold!! I envy them.

What we did is just be crazy in front of the sea. we have a lot of photos taken.

After that, we went to the largest duty free mall in Gold Coast, but it seems to more expensive than the other retail stores. It is kind of fraud I thought. Koji got a very expensive wallet which cost $1,800. yes, he is rich. At night, few of us stayed at the beach side, called pizza express and drunk. it was so sweet memories that is most appropriate our last weekend.

Thanks. It is me from Yuzuru. Get to work!!

Business Project

We had fun for 2 weeks and its time for us to get serious.

We came here to study business in English, and we have a work called Business Project.
This work is really tough for me because Im not good at Business and English.

We work on this Project in groups consist of 4 or 5 members.

We don't have enough time to get it done, so we have to work on it seriously.
We have only a week left.

Anyway, im going to work on it.
See you soon.

August 12th

Today's blog writer is Yuzuru Hsanaga.
Howdy.
August 12th was public holiday in Brisbane. we gotta no classes and all day free time.
what we did that day is BBQ party with the students who came here QUT as exchange program.
we had Kanagawa University, Kansai Gaigo University, and Rikkyo University. They are awesome, so funny. I did not expect that I can get along with them so well.

BBQ party started around 12 o'clock. we spent $600 for preparation. lots of Auggie beef, xxxx beer, vegetables. All of us forgot about studying here, concentrated on eating and drinking, then we became drunk.
BBQ party held at South Bank, which is absolutely beautiful place to visit.
You ought to visit once you come to Brisbane in Australia.

11th AUG

Finally, It's my turn.

Today, we went to EKKA which is a kind of city festival in Brisbane.

Many games, many foods, many people, but any research!!!

We had fun, but no information to get.

Anyway, only 10day remaining for us staying in Aus, it's getting busy.

Tomorrow is a public holiday, some of our classmates are going to hold a BBQ party.

umm....it might be fun.

Since 1st day in Aus, I fell any difficulties caused by cultural differences.

But actually, everything is fun and being a good eperience for me.

How is the earthquick going in Tokyo??

I really worry about that.

Today's writer was Kazuaki.

I really miss Japanese foods.

Bye!!

10th AUG

It is already second week in Australia.We are getting used to the life here, including waking up early, asking anything to our teachers in English, having a morning tea time and so on.

We have English class in the morning and Management class in the afernoon basically.

We are now working on how to give good presentations and a new marketing plan.

During all class, no one who came from other country is mixed into our class.

We are going to EKKA tomorrow.
I think there is no alike thing in Japan, so it is difficult to explain what is EKKA, however,

tomorrow's writer will write about EKKA.

Today is by Tomoko MIYAKE. Thanks.

Sunday

I have nothing to do today.
So I went to QUT to use computers.

This is the first trip to foreign country for me.
But my host family is so kind that I can relax.

I'm not good at English, but I can manage to keep up with our English class.
However, our business class is too difficult for me.
I can't understand what the teacher is saying.

This business tour is for not only studying, but also sightseeing.
Yesterday we went to Stradbroke Island.
We enjoyed aboriginal dance, BBQ, and the view of sea.
Next Saturday, we are going to go to Gold Coast.

I want to enjoy the rest of this trip.

From AUS :-)

Im sorry that I forgot to write this blog yesterday... ;-(

Yesterday, August 5th, we had English class in the morning and we went to Sirromet, a winery of Queensland, to conduct research in the afternoon.
CEO of Sirromet talked to us, but it was very difficult to understand what he had said.
We could very beautiful scenery around there!! :-)

Today, August 6th, we had English for Business class in the morning and we Business Project class in the afternoon.
As you know, we came here to study not only English but also Business in English.
It is very difficult for me to study Business in English because I can't understand Business in Japanese...

Anyway, I will try hard to study English and Business!!

4th August

Im sorry that we renewaling blog late. It is already Tuesday, second day of school.
I say goodbye to Mr. Kosaka, Have a nice journey.
yesterday, first day of school, we had orientation to get much information about QUT. It seemed everybody confused how to get to the school and amazed how big QUT is. However, all of us now be on time at school. we are the good students.

Today, 4th August, we had classes all day. In the morning, our memebers divided into two groups, did some paper work about colorod. what colorad has sterategy to win the market, things like that. In the afternonn, it was tough. we did business project for 3 hours. a teacher lectured us with passion, often he shout like "marketing is like soccer game, WE HAVE TO WIN. THERE ARE ONLY WIN AND LOSE, WINNER AND LOSER!!"
I slept during class. Ill study hard tomorrow.
