I'm glad that I can talk to you about my life here in Texas. Every day has been so exciting for me.
I have always been interested in America and wanted to be able to speak English well. After studying hard, my dream of coming to Texas came true.
During a dinner with my friend's family, I was asked about Japanese cooking, haiku, and my hometown. It made me realize the importance of learning about one's own country.

I'm glad that I can talk to you about my life here in Texas. I can't believe that about Three months have already passed since I came. Every day has been so exciting for me.
I have always been interested in America. I began to study English when I was ten years old. Since then I have wanted to be able to speak English well.
Soon after exciting high school in Japan. I hoped to go to America. So I studied very hard. At last my dream came true and I arrived in Texas. I have made so many friends through living and studying here in America.
Last week one of my friends, Kate, invited me to dinner. Her parents went to Japan last lear. She showed me some pictures they took to remember their trip.
At dinner, Kate's mother asked me about Japanese cooking. She said, "I hear that tofu is very healthy, but I don't know many ways to cook it. Maki, could you tell me a few different ways to cook it?" putting tofu in miso soup was the only way I could think of.
later, Kate's father asked me about haiku. He said,"I hear that haiku was born in Japan. Would you tell me about Japanese haiku?" I couldn't tell him about haiku because I don't remember anything I learned about it.
After dinner, we talked about our towns. Kate asked me the population of mine, but I couldn't answer that question,either.
I was surprised to be asked questions like those. Before coming here, I read a lot of books about America, not Japan. My friends here want to know about Japan as much as I want to know about America. I never thought of that before. I now understand that it is important to learn about one's own country and to be able to talk about it.
以上です。
