c. Comments about the news.
I heard that some acquaintances and some friends consider to go to abroad for studying, and they think studying abroad will good for them to go on to college and job hunting.

But it may be fact that Japanese students are busy for job hunting and they can't go to abroad.

I wanted to go abroad when I entered to KGU, but I changed my mind. Because I couldn't earn enough money for study abroad for one year. It came from my strength, but it showed me that I didn't want to go to abroad from my heart then.

Some teachers and friends advise me to go to abroad. I'm very grad to hear that, but I also feel I'm able to be studying many things here because I'm here. I think I should watch many things more and more here now, and next, I want to see another world. I fear that I will stop thinking from imprinting and I will be not able to know my misunderstanding, too.

So, when I will be able to plan specific about studying abroad, I will go to new world.
