Hi everyone!
How's your golden week been so far?
I've been a couch potato for the last five or six days. It's been wonderful! What have you been doing during Golden Week?
I went shopping at Living Square Awase (a furniture mall). I needed to buy a new computer chair because my old computer chair was worn out. I ended up buying a really expensive chair, but it's so comfortable! I definitely think it was worth it.
Starter Class (handout)
In starter class we talked about your daily routines again. We talked about the following things.
What time do you get up?
What time do you leave home?
What time do you get to work?
What time do you finish work?
What time do you get home?
What time do you go to bed?
On weekdays,
I usually get up at 9 in the morning.
After that, I drink coffee and have breakfast.
Then, I watch TV for about 15 minutes.
I usually leave home at 10:00am.
On the weekend, I usually get up at 10 to 11am in the morning.
On Saturday night, I usually go to bed at 2am.
Beginner Class (handout)
In beginner class we talked about things that you have in your house.
When you explain things that you have in your house, usually we use two different phrases, I have and There is:
I have a TV in my bedroom.
There is an air conditioner in the living room.
（自分の所有物は、「I have」をよく使う」）
（部屋に元々設置されてるものは、「there is」をよく使う）
Examples:
I have two computers in my room.
There is a big TV at English Garden.
There is a very nice view of the ocean from my veranda.
Even when we talk about abstract things (抽象的なもの）like time, space, energy, we also use the same idea:
Please think about the difference between:
I have no time.
There is no time.
I have no space.
There is no space.
Also we talked about the phrase enough （十分）and just right （丁度いい）.
For example, on your air conditioner, what do you set the temperature to in the summer?
I think 26 degrees is just right.
But some people think 28 degrees is enough.
For an LCD TV in your bedroom, what is the right size?
I think 32 inches is just right.
But some people think 26 inches is big enough.
How long do you want to stay at a drinking party?
Well, it depends.
If the atmosphere is good, sometimes five hours isn't enough.
If the atmosphere is bad, sometimes one hour is more than enough.
