Monday, September 16th.  “Saxophone”

When I was in high school, I used to play the saxophone.  In those days, I really wanted to become a professional saxophone player.  When I entered university, I found something that I wanted to do more so I quit playing.  But still, out of all the musical instruments, I love the sound of the saxophone most of all.  

These days, I’m hooked on listening to people play the saxophone on YouTube.  It makes me want to play the saxophone again.  Many people who play the saxophone on YouTube are just doing it for fun.  If I could find the time, I would definitely start playing again.  

But still – それでも

It makes me want to – ~したい気持ちになる。

That’s me when I was in High School.

I took this picture when I went to San Francisco.  I think it’s a really cool picutre.

Thursday, September 19th.  “Best Backpack Ever!”

I’ll be going to Hawaii tomorrow with my Willton students. I’ll be there for a whole week.  Believe it or not, I’m not bringing a suitcase with me.  I’ll be traveling with only one backpack.  Actually, I’ve done this before when I went to Alaska.  I limit what I bring to what I can fit in my backpack.  This way, I don’t have to waste time and I can help students out if they need my help. 

The backpack I have prepared for this trip is North Face Fuse Box.  As far as I know, it’s the best backpack.  I had exactly the same one 7 years ago.  It was yellow and I gave it to someone so this time I got a black one.  It looks awesome!  The thing I like about this backpack is the number of things you can fit in it.  Plus, it stands up straight so it’s easy to get things out.    There’s nothing like it.  

Believe it or not – 信じれないかも

As far as I know – 知っている限りでは、

stands up straight – 真っ直ぐ立つ
