Last week, I was sick. On the last day of the English
training camp, I feld sick a little. May be I was very
tierd in that camp. On the next day, I took a day of
and was on my bed all the day. On the next day, I took
a half day off at AM.

I didn’t have a cough nor running nose. I just had
fever, and I didn’t have appetite. These symptoms
were new to me. I don’t know what was that.

I’m now OK. I want to have more healthy body. I need
to continue my excercises at the gym.

I went to a High Speed English training camp again. This time,
the course was held in a hotel in Atami. So, the atmosphere and
the facility was better than the course held in Fuji. I stayed
in the hotel for 5 days.

We had 10 students, so there were two teams. Basically, the
school tries to arrange the number of students par class up to 6.
There were two teachers, too. One teacher was one of our teachers
when I went to the Fuji course. He is a strong man. The other
teacher was the one who was Red team’s teacher in the last new
year’s break course in Fuji.

The curriculum was the same. Lesson material was almost same. But
I think there were still somethings I could get in this training
camp. If they give me another lesson material, I want to go the
school in the near future again. But they won’t. So, may be I will
go to the school one year later or so.

Two weeks ago, I went to a classical music concert.
I didn’t have any interest in classical music before.
But after I read Nodame, I have interested in it.
The concert was of an amateur orchestra. One of my
friends give me a ticket. She is a member of the
orchestra.

There were two professional musicians in the concert.
One was the conductor, and the other was a violinist.
He played the solo part of a violine concerto. He was
a great player. He was the greatest player I’ve ever
heard. I was very impressed. In this concert, I knew
violines have such a great sound.

I went to Tipness last Friday. So far, I have been
to Fitness Club Tokyo Dome. This club is in the same
building as Spa Laqua. You can use Spa Laqua if you
have gold membership. I think this is the most biggest
advantage in this club. Of couse, you have to pay much…

On that day, I went to Tipness One Ikebukuro, and I
became a member of it. Tipness is one of the biggest
chain club in Kantou. You can use any clubs if you have
above a certain level of membership. For example,
I registered in Tipness One Ikebukuro, but I can use
Tipness Kawaguchi, Tipness One Hibiya, Tipness Shibuya,
and so on.

I was surprized that in almost every points, Tipness was
better than Fitness Club Tokyo Dome. I was impressed
that Tipness is specialized for this area, for their profession.
On the other hand, the club at Tokyo Dome is part of the
business of Kourakuen. It may not be their main stream
job.

I’ll quit the former club next month. It’s a pity for me that
I can’t use Spa Laqua without additional fee. But I think
it’s right decision to change the clubs.

Since last Friday, I have used an online English conversation
school. Almost all teachers are in the Philippines. Their English
is very good, but it’s very cheap. Thanks for the current
exchange rate.

The school I use is this.

There are many other online English schools. I can’t compare
this school to other schools, because I don’t know other schools
(except English Town.)

I took 6 lessons (about 3 hours) so far. I was satisfied with
their service. If you are interested in them, you should try.
Until the end of this month, they’ll give you 2-4 lessons for
free as trials.
