My second Artifact is my first writing sample about my trip to Kyoto with my host family during Golden Week. Because it was a topic that I had a very strong memory of and had a lot of details I think that I was able to express myself very well. We had not learned a lot of new grammar yet but the vocabulary that we had recently learned was very useful in describing what Kyoto is like during Golden Week. I have always been a better writer than speaker and I think all of my writing samples demonstrate that. I really enjoyed writing this writing sample because I was able to fully describe my experience without being too limited by grammar I have not yet learned.
These are the comments I received on my writing sample:
リーアンさんが京都に行ったときのことがよくわかりました。
— “へんな人はしずかに歩きません”というのはおもしろいですね。ブリーアンさんの考えですか。
— ミスが少なくて、いいエッセイだと思います。
