An Event that Marked my Transition from Childhood to Adulthood -- Koko

 I will describe a event that marked my transition. It is leaving my hometown. After I graduated a high school, I had to leave my hometown and go to another prefecture because I entered university in another prefecture. To be honest, I didn't feel lonely. In fact, I'd like to live alone since I was in a junior high school. Even though I cloud live alone, I was uneasy about living in a new environment.

 What I have done since I first started new life was keeping in mind to do everything by myself and rely on someone. It is due to the fact that I need independence to level up my life skills as one of the adults. As I kept my life day by day, I was gradually excited to new life and I think I was mentally independent. Going into detail, I tried some part-time jobs (e.g.; restaurants and convenience store) and have found the most suitable way of job for me. Also, I managed my money by myself. It is important to keep on finding my way and understanding about me in looking for job. If I didn't try to improve my skill, I would not find meaning of alive even now. 

 It is good opportunity for me to leave my hometown. Of course, it's not only fun to live alone and decide something by myself. I had many setbacks. However, through try and error, I learned that I have to try something which I want to do.

The Ideal School: My Vision -- Riko

Image
                  Since before, some people consider that academic subjects (math, science, biology, history, geography, etc.) are the most important. In addition to this, these days, the 4Cs (critical thinking, creativity, collaboration, and communication) are regarded as essential. Although it is true that these subjects and perspectives are extremely important for life, I suppose that it is also significant to learn skills and abilities at a school to live independently.                 This kind of school would have high quality of teaching about housework as much as academic school. Students at the school could learn how to cook, grow plants, make and fix things with some equipment and tools such as kitchens, electric drills, etc.). One of the advantages of this style is that the students would not tend to be bored because they...
