I am interested in Los Angels and New York very much. So I want to live there. First, I need to improve my English skills and communication.

Sometimes I hang out with some international students, and I respect them because they can speak Japanese well. I do not think my English is not enough to communicate with them, so I try to hang out with them as many as I can. They teach me English.
I hope I will have two children 20 years later. I have no idea my husband is Japanese or not. Maybe he is Japanese. But I want him to speak English more than I can do because I can live abroad. That would be awesome. I do not like busy life, so I want to have a slow life after forty with my family. But I cannot expect my life twenty years later. This is like dream!!
