Look pretty and yammy!

I found these cookies at chow kit in Kuala Lumpur. It has a daily market at chow kit and you can see colorful cloths, passion fruits. I bought these cookies because 3boxes are just 10RM(=about 300yen)! It's reasonable.



I walked along the street"J.SULTAN ISMAIL", finally I found the "Hard Rock Cafe"! I collect the Hard Rock Cafe T-shirts where I've visited. 9years ago, I couldn't get the T-shirts, so I am very happy!yeah!



After that I went up "KL tower(MENARA KUALA LUMPUR)", on my way to kl tower, I met 2 Taiwanese and talked with them a little. I was glad to communicate with others in English. This is real pleasure of travel! And I saw "PETRONAS Twin Towers" which were the highest. Yesterday a taxy driver said to me ordinary people couldn't go up the twin tower unless vip or special guests. So I saw the "PETRONAS Twin Towers" from "KL tower". Malaysian are very proud of the twin towers and they look gorgeous and strong.

Good bye NewZealand and Hello Kuala Lumplur

Good bye NewZealand, thank you for NewZealand.
I left for Kuala Lumpur. I am going to trip to Kuala Lumpur before I will be back Japan.

This is the second time to trip there because 9years ago one of my best friends "minoru's mum" and I went for graduation trip.
Actually this is the first time to trip to overseas by myself. I want to try to speak in English in foreign country. Can I communicate with others in Engilish?
Anyway I get exicited!

Dumpling Party 3...This is final dinner with Barbara

Today Barbara and I made dumplings for my final dinner.
She was good at making dumplings and she was ready for nice Champagne for us.
I like Champagne and had too much so my face turned red. Hahaha...
I couldn't believe that I will leave here tomorrow morning!

And we watched the movie "Lost in translation" on TV. This movie is a story which two Americans feel anxiety living in Tokyo and they are getting to fall in love each other, so the film had many scenes in Tokyo and I remember that my life in Tokyo. I forgot the feelings which people who came from overseas live in another country, so I got used to live here and love my host family and NewZealand.

Today we had two kinds of dumplings, one is fried dumplings and the other is boiled dumplings. Both of them were really yammy! It's windy day today so I hope tomorrow's my flight is safety.
I had a nice time with Japanese friends and my final time in New Zealand was coming.

Scorns Reiko made. They were nice.

Dumpling Party 1 餃子パーティー１

今日は餃子パーティーその１。
私のホストファミリーは餃子が好きなようなので、６０個作ってみました。
あと、数日で日本に帰らなくちゃいけないし、感謝の気持ちを込めて日本食ディナー！

姉から教えてもらった簡単ひじきサラダと乾燥しいたけのダシを使ったスープ（これに母が送ってくれたお麩をいれて、っと、超おいしい！）も添えます。

フツウのスーパーでは餃子の皮は売ってないから、チャイニーズマーケットへＧＯ！学校帰りに友達と行きました。友達も今日の夕飯は餃子にするそうです。

ホストファミリーが私が作った日本食を喜んで食べてくれてよかったあ！中華レストランで雇ってくれてないかナ、そうしたらこんな楽しい場所にもっと長く居られるのに！

Today I made 60 pieces of dumplings for my lovely host family.
A few days later, I must be back Japan and I wanted to cook Japanese food to show my appreciaition!

Today's menu are "Dumplings", "Japanese soup", "Hijiki salad". My sister mikako told me how to cook "Hijiki salada" and she sent to me dried "Hijiki".I thought Hijiki is unusual for my host family. Barbara said it looked black worm! It was fun.

After school, I went to Chinese market with my class mates to buy some materials. One of my class mates Mina also is going to cook dumplings for dinner! We got Cabbage, spring onions, dried mushroom, pork mins and some cover for dumplings.

My host family really enjoyed having Japanese food which I made so I was very happy I want to get working viza to work in Chinese restaurant and stay longer such a nice place.
