     I go to university by train every day. Lately I have a routine on the train. That is, first play the game Arena of Valor, then Sudoku.      This past year, I have been addicted to Arena of Valor. This is a 5 vs 5 player online game. It may look like a simple game because the field doesn't change, but it's actually quite deep. This includes not only each character's control skill, but also the character's compatibility and overall tactics. The more I play, the more I understand the game, and the more I get stuck in the swamp. Recently, I've become stronger, and my win rate is over 75%, and I've been able to win nearly 40 times in a row. I can't seem to quit this game...      And after Arena of Valor, Sudoku is what I do. This is another deep game. As I play a lot, I understand the tricks and procedures of how to solve it. Then I will be able to solve more and more difficult qestions....

       I have a pleasant friend. She has a fun personality, but she has also caused interesting incidents.      It happened at a Christmas party in our circle. A bingo tournament was held during the party. Of course, the sooner you get bingo, the better the prize. I was with her and another friend, and she was the first to reach. However, although there are holes in her cards, it is not bingo at all. Just the reach was increasing.      In the meantime, another friend got a bingo, and I got a bingo. The number of people left was decreasing, but she remained in it for a long time. And the last ones left were her and the president of the circle. It was a contest between the current president and the next vice president. Neither of them got into bingo easily, but it was the chairman who got out first.      She continued to play bingo after that, and I think she eventually had a reach of ...

      Last weekend, I went to Osaka. The main purpose was to go to the Art of Sword Art Online, which is the exhibition of SAO. I really like Sword Art Online and have wanted to go there.     Of course, the exhibits were very interesting. However the foods I ate in Osaka were also memorable for me on this trip to Osaka.     After seeing the exhibition, my friend and I went to the Christmas market. Because it originted in Germany, German food and goods are sold there. I bought curry sausage. There were also potatoes on the plate.  I ate it, and was amazed. It was very delicious. I thought it was a little too much, but it disappeared from the plate in no time.     Also, on the second day, I went to Namba for lunch. We had searched for a place to have lunch and decided to go to GOOD SPOON. The cheese hamburger looked delicious, so we ordered it. When the food was brought, the clerk put cheese on the hamburger. Then I ate it, and also impres...

       On 2 December, the World Cup match between Spain and Japan began at 4 a.m. If Japan wins this match, they will advance to the knockout stages. But Spain is a powerhouse. I thought it would be tough for Japan to win, and I thought it would be a draw at best. However, Japan defeated Germany. I was a little hopeful that maybe Japan would win.      There were many situations in the match where Japan had to defend. Spain were able to score a goal early, so I think it will be impossible to turn it around. However, things changed a lot in the second half when Japan changed players. Thanks to good defence by Maeda and Ito, Doan scored. In addition, Mitoma did not give up and connected the ball, and Tanaka scored an additional goal. If the ball had gone 1.8 millimeters, it wouldn't have been a goal, it was a miracle.       Japan continued to outperform the Spanish onslaught and won 2-1....

     On November 12th, I went cycling with my friend. The destination was "Omizuen", which is famous for its autumn leaves. It is about 17 kilometers from Okayama Station.      It was sunny and the temperature was just right. We went through the Kibiji Cycling Road. There were almost no signal, no slopes, and the roads were well prepared and easy to ride. There were rows of autumn leaves and large torii gates along the way. I ate millet dumplings at Kibitsuhiko Shrine. It was a lot of fun along the way.      Ashimori, where the Omizuen is located, is famous in the townscape, and we enjoyed it as well. There were many people, and the autumn leaves and garden were very beautiful. After leaving, we went to the Yasutomi Ranch. It is near the garden. We ate gelato. It was very delicious.      I was a little tired that day, but it was a lot of fun cycling. Why don't you go there too? You can go by mamachari....

 Now, The Qatar World Cup is being held. It is an international soccer competition that comes once every four years. Because I like to play and watch soccer, I have been looking forward to it since last year. 　I was only going yo watch the Japanese national team's match because I do not know much about foreign countries. However, I suddenly became interested and opened a page to watch the Iran vs England match on Tuesday night. I watched the game thinking England were good. Then, less than five minutes later, England scored twice! I was very surprised, excited, and fascinated. I could not stop watching the game and finally watched the whole game even though the exam was coming.  After watching this match, I became looking forward to the match against Germany more and more, and even more so that I wanted to watch all the games, not just the Japan. However, sadly, because I have not studied enough so far, I have to study hard for the exam. How do I do both...?
