The journey of my life started in San Diego in 1996 where I was born as a baby. There is no memory of me in San Diego until third year of my life when my parents took me back to country side of Japan. My mother told me that the first time in Japan, I did not speak Japanese but English until I notice that I'm in a different country. This is the start of my life where I have the memory back in the time. This was the beginning of the 'actual' life.
Since living in Japan, I've started going to the pre-school (yo-chi-en) for three years before the entry of the elementary school. It was not easy to get used to Japanese culture and making friends who were hundred percent native in Japanese. Nothing was easy in terms of socializing with people around me, even with neighbors. I do not remember whether being in pre-school was fun or not. The only excitement I probably had was food because of how delicious it was. Three years have passed and I entered to the local elementary school. At the time, I have already forgotten how to speak and read in English but becoming more comfortable speaking in Japanese. Although this was an entry to era of boring life in Japan.
