1月8日 My trip in France and Austria昨日まで10日間、フランスとオーストリアに行ってきた。今年の新年はいつもと違う体験をした。今まではほとんど家族で新年を過ごしたけど、今年はパリのシャンゼリゼ通りで新年を迎えた。 人がものすごく多くて、日本人の旅行客もいっぱいいた。2007になった瞬間みんなの歓声と花火の音でものすごく感激した！シャンパンを飲んでる人もいて、あ～フランス人って本当にロマンティックなんだなって思った。帰りは地下鉄がクローズになったりと大変だったけど... そうそうのだめの影響で私はどうしてもパリ音楽院に行きたくて、1日の朝友達とだーれもいないパリ音楽院を訪れた。私が想像したのとまったく違うモダンな建物で、その建物のすぐ隣には劇場と音楽博物館があっていい環境だった。あとはオペラ座の怪人の舞台となったパリオペラ座や凱旋門... とりあえず有名そうな場所に行ってみた(^-^)!フランスはどの建物も規模が大きくて、ルーブル美術館の広さに私はびっくり！！私の大好物のクレープも食べれて本当に幸せだった。 オーストリアはザルツブルクの近くにある小さな町に行って、友達の家に泊まり、その子と一緒にウィーンに行ってきた。ウィーン国立音楽院は町中のいろんな場所に分かれていて、キャンパスの中にある日本の音大とは違う感じで、楽器ごと科目ごとに建物がそれぞれ分かれていて、ウィーンの音大生は授業を受けるのに町を行き来しなきゃいけないから大変だろうなって思った。ウィーンは本当に音楽の町って感じで、Beethoven、 Mozart、Schubert... 偉大な音楽家たちの彫刻や肖像がいろんなとこで見かけることができて、初めての私にとって本当に感動の連続だった！！ウィーンがなぜ音楽家たちの憧れの町なのかがなんとなくわかった気がする。ウィ－ンで勉強してみたくなった(^-^)日本人、中国人の学生や他のアジア人の学生がいっぱいいた。みんなウィーンで一生懸命音楽を勉強してるんだろうな、きっと...! 9月20日 The new termI came back to Manchester last night. I spent 2 months in Japan(2 weeks in China). I was so busy today!!!!! There are so many new students in RNCM. I met some of my friends and my piano teacher. I really have to practice hard for my first lesson next week, but I'm too busy to practice, I've got so many things to do. Tiding up my room, register, shopping etc. But I really need to go to bed now. It's always so busy when a new term starts, especially in September. 9月2日 KARUIZAWA家族３人で軽井沢に行って来ました。軽井沢に行ったのは今回が２回目で６か７年ぶりでした。車で行く途中まで雨が降っていて、着いたころには晴れて、空気がとてもキレイでした。室外温度はなんと１８度！！上着を着てもちょっと寒いぐらいで、大和の暑さとは大違いでした。３人で軽井沢の古い町をぶらぶらして、いろんな可愛くてお洒落なお店があって、私はミルクアイスを食べて大満足！！夕食はおそばとラーメンを食べておなかがいっぱいになったところで泊まるところに戻りました。お父さんの友達の家族は遅く着いたので、すこし話してみんな早めに寝ました。次の日の朝、私とお父さんだけ早起きして、私の車運転の練習をしました。私は免許を取ってもう２年になるのに、運転した回数はわずか２～３回程度。りっぱな"Paper driver"です(笑)！このままゴールド免許取れちゃいそうな勢い（苦笑)！できるだけ安全そ～うな道を走っただけでした。そのあとはお父さんの友達の家族とは別行動にして、私たちは蓼科湖に行きました！小さな湖だったけど、可愛くて雰囲気がなんとなく好きでした。今度もまた夏に軽井沢に行きたいなぁ！！！涼しい風とおいしい空気が最高でした！！ 7月3日 July 1st my 21st birthdayIt was my 21st birthday last Saturday. I had to work in our college from 10am to 5pm for concert ushering. I listened to the Saint-Saens piano concerto No.2 played by the junior RNCM chamber orchestra. My friend played the same concerto with RNCM symphony orchestra this year as well. I remembered that I went to a concert in the Bridgewater hall on the same day last year, it was the Tchaikovsky piano concerto No.1 played by a great Russian pianist in our college. I came back to my flat after my work, cleaned my room and kitchen for my birthday party. My friends came at around 7:30pm. I cooked rice and fried vegetables. My friends brought some food and drinks. We had a great dinner with red wine. I got some really nice birthday cards, presents and texts from my friends. We talked a lot...
I had a great time  I'm 21 years old now 6月17日 Scotland EdinburghI went to Edinburgh last Wednesday with my friend. It took about 4hours to get there by train. We stayed in a cheap youth hostel near the Edinburgh castle. I coudn' sleep well cause the others were so noisy during the night. People played music and talked really loudly next door. We visted the Edinburgh castle the next morning. The castle is visited annually by about one million people. The oldest building in the castle is St.Margaret's chapel which has been standing there for more than 900 years. There were many museums in the castle, we walked around the castle, had lunch in a cafe there, and tried Scottish whisky in a gift shop which was really sweet and easy to drink.We spent about 5 hours there. Then we went to the new town took some pictures and had our dinner in a nice Italian restaurant. At the same time, I charged my digital camera in the restaurant, cause I found a plug just under our table. So we stayed there as long as we could to wait for my camera was charged completely, but we felt a bit bad cause there was a long queue of people outside the restaurant. So we ordered more after we finished our dishes. Then we went back to the old town and went back to the hostel at about 10:30. We visited the National Galarries of Scotland yesterday, had our lunch in Pizza Hut. We went to the portrait Galarry in the afternoon, bought some souvenirs... we were so tired but had a really great time in Edinburgh. We came back to Manchester at about 12:00am. Edinburgh was so different from Manchester, and the Scottish accent was quite interesting. Even money there looked different from England. I'd like to visit Glasgow next time because the Royal Scotish Academy of Music and Drama is there, my friend told me that the college looks quite similar to our college RNCM. 6月14日 End of year examI have done my end of year piano exam today. I had a really really busy year this year from the first term. Today I played Bach Partita No 6 Toccata,
Beethoven sonata Op78, Ligeti Etude No.2 ( The composer died the day before yesterday...) and Rachmaninov Preludes Op 32-5, 10, 12. I think it went quite well except Ligeti, cause I did some really stupid mistakes, but never mind  I really enjoyed the other pieces actually!! Then I had a rehearsal with my cellist cause she's got her exam tomorrow, and I'm gonna accompany her. I went to Pizza Hut with my three friends, we had a lot...after that we went to a cinema near the city centre, but nothing really interesting to watch, so we came back to the halls and watched a DVD instead! I'm going to Scotland with my friend tomorrow, I'm so excited!!!!!!I'll have a rest this week4月20日 SheffieldI went to Sheffield with my friend Cathia today. We bought our train tickets yesterday. I got up at 7:00 am, I was so sleepy |

We arrived at Sheffield before 10:00 am. The city was quite similar to Manchester. We walked around the city centre and visited some galleries. I took many pictures even the weather wasn't nice today. We had lunch in the SUBWAY. We came back to Manchester at about 5:00 pm. We were lucky because the rain was very heavy after I came back...We are planning a trip to Scotland with the other friends in this summer term. I can't wait!!!
