Chatting room on 5/13
Our group is eighth group; there are four students in our group, two students are Taiwanese students, and others are come from Japan. At first, we discuss about how to start our company. So our group leader proposed we could start a restaurant. Because we thought selling some local foods is a good idea. Moreover, we explain about where is Taipei and Sapporo to each other, and recognized some background information about Taipei and Sapporo.
Therefore, we would like to start a restaurant, and focus on both Japanese and Taiwanese foods, especially seafood is popular food in Taiwan and Japan. Japanese cuisine usually uses a lot of sea food, such as sushi. Our group leader suggested we can offer Sashimi, which is row fish, or sushi as in usual Japanese restaurant overseas, or broiled and boiled fish. Taiwanese famous food just like oyster thin noodles, fish ball soup, clams soup, oyster omelet, there are very delicious seafood. And I suggested maybe we could build our restaurant in night market. But I thought the only weakness of night market is not always clean, our group discussed how to improve this problem. Although it would got too many competitor, if we set our restaurant in night market, but it is not a big problem, if our food is very famous and delicious, our customers will line up in front of us! Beside, Tokyo and Taipei, we consider “does both of Japanese and Taiwanese would like our two kinds of food (Taiwan and Japanese food)?” Our group leader answered “I am Japanese but I love Taiwan food, so this problem is certainly “yes! If your food is good, your customer would love it.”
I think this activity is very useful for me to use English to discussing issues. I like this activity, because I learned a lot from this activity, this was a good chance to know about other country, it is help me enhance cultural exchanges images.

Today I learned how to use recorder by computer!
It is very important for me to learn this skill, because you can use recorder to do
many things, such as your voice. First,you can record your pronounce, after
that you listen it, and practice again and again. It's a good way to know how is your pronounce.
So~after class I want to learn more skills about computer, just like Dreamweaver or Video Editor
