Japanese Journey

Japanese Journey

                      Japanese, yeah first I hear the word in my brain is difficult writing. I start to study Japanese when I start to study in senior high school. When I was ten grade, I get the lesson. This is first time my Japanese teacher come into my class. She said ‘’ Ohayou Gozaimasu’’ we just laughed because we heard the word was funny. The teacher smile and ask us.

           ‘’ Do you know the meaning?’’ of course we answered that we didn’t know because this is first time we heard the word. The teacher write ohayou gozaimasu with Japanese letter. From that I’m interested to study Japanese, and I made a decision to come into Language class because in Language class I can learn Japanese more detail. Since I was child I like learn about strange language, and my friends said that I have language soul. I have ever been hear that if you want to grip the  world you must understand about the language. I also think that we have an ability in language, we will easy to communication everywhere we there. I have many dream, one of them is I want togo to Japan. I want to see sakura, because when the sakura was bloomy this is very beautiful.

           My Japanese teacher is my favourite teacher, why? Because be sides her teaching very interesting, she also always gave us motivation. She said that we must be brave to have a dream, if just have a dream we are afraid, how we will be succes. My dream to join in Japanese olympiad have reached by me. I join in Japanese Olympiad 3 times, although I have never won yet but I like because I found valuable experience. First and third olympiad my teacher hold selection and second olympiad we are free to join the competition. The first olympiad in Kanjuruhan, which hold by Kanjuruhan Malang University. There are 5 student which sent by my teacher. There are many kinds of competition and I join in rodoku( reading Japanese letter). The second olympiad that I join, was hold by Unesa(Universitas Negeri Surabaya) I join in the same competition it is rodoku, but it’s special because the jury is original  Japanese people. In the opening ceremony opened by general consulate of Japan, it’s Mr. Masatake Ito, he still young and handsome. In Unesa the competition more than in Kanjuruhan, as like rodoku taikai, kanji taikai, benron taikai (speech contest), etc. And the third olympiad is in Mojokerto, the located in Gondang senior high school which hold by Mojokerto Japenese Teacher Association. Now, Iam not in rodoku but in Indonesia is cerdas cermat. I must answer questions about Japan culture. If we can answer 10 question we can continue in semifinal. But in ninth question my answer was false. I’m very sad and I want to come into the room again. Although I never be a champion but I have give my biggest effort and I study work hard to this olympiad. Failed is more better than failed to try.
