Student's report from Seattle, Washington, USA
The beginning of our collaboration ---
1st report from Seattle
How are you doing? Seems like we haven't seen for a decade!
2nd report from Seattle on April 26, 1998
Tabloid newspaper
I have been pretty good here in Seattle, Washington. Do you watch
baseball games? The Seattle Mariners won in the Western League.
I went to see the game last Sunday and there were a huge audience!
We yelled so loud! Probably the fans above us were mad at us.
Today was the first day for classes. I was so impressed that the teachers
were so enthusiastic. Tomorrow I'll have the American Sign Language class.
I am excited about it. There are 4 quarters in a school year. The last quarter
we are going to work for a company as an intern. I would like to work for some
broadcasting station or publisher. I am not sure about it though. Do you have
any suggestion for my internship? It is possible if the student is talented,
she can work from the 2nd or 3rd quarter.
How are the folks in the English conversation class at church? Are they all doing
well? Please tell them "Hello" I've got to go.
Write me a poem again when you have a spare time.
Take care!

Bellevue, WA - Hello guys.
Hope you are having a nice weekend.
Guess what? Yesterday when I was driving on 148th from around NE4th to
NE12th (Bel-Red), I was ahead of all the cars following me; no cars
before me. And I found something bizarre. A Van, a big car was driving
facing to me!! Wrong way, man! I was driving the most left lane but
tried to pull over as much farther to the left as possible to get away
from the trouble car. It was around 7:00pm or so. I of course became
panicked. Then so many cops appeared and began THE CAR-CHASE for which
America is famous!! I was like "Oh my gosh! I saw the driver's face,
man! I did see his face! I can help cops to make a montage!" Anyway,
there came 2 cops at the intersection of 148 and Bel-Red. They drove
into the intersection at probably more than 100m/h and stopped with
smoking from the tires to see which way to persue the trouble van. And I
knew the van drove away to south-bound, so I hustled to open my car
window and yelled "This way, this way!!" Hey you guys, I contributed!
Maybe they will give me an award! And the van, to escape from a head-on
crash, after he passed me, he drove onto a sidewalk to go out of my
view. In the morning paper, they said the suspect Ran over a person on
sidewalk made he made it! He ran away from all the cops and helicopter
chasing!! The guy was being chased for shooting a person! He is a
murderer! Watch out, he hasn't been arrested yet! He is like middle age I
would say 30's to mid 40's, father-like appearance and never seems like
a suspect. Could be your host parents? Could be! J/K ;D (what kind of simile
was this?)
