The day has come; I leave here to Japan. Some of my friends go back to their country after this semester. Medelaine and Christina were one of them from Germany. I wrote a message on their notebook. Then, I promised to visit Germany in 2006 when the world cup is held in the country.

It is a really cold day. It was almost 0 degree Celsius. I walked to the bus terminal at the downtown from college. At the bus terminal, I met a friend, Jessica. She was also on her way to her home in Chicago. She helped me occasionally. I enjoyed the five-hour long trip.
We arrived at Chicago on time; 740pm. Then, I said good-bye to Jessica and head for the subway station. Actually, this was my third visit; thus, I didn窶冲 have any difficulties to get to the hostel. The hostel was nearby the college, so the atmosphere was so safety; many dormitories were there. After taking shower, I went to bed soon.

Night time Chicago was kind of scary city for me. Even though there were many lights enough to walk on the street, I couldn窶冲 help feel somewhat uncomfortable. I think it comes from just unfamiliar feeling; I spent most of four months in the safety friendly campus. There was no threat. Therefore, I haven窶冲 experienced survival 窶徨eal America.窶� In this sense, the traveling must be a good experience. (Going to the college in big city is one of the good ideas.) After the next term, I should travel around the United States.
