The Most Interesting Place

I had not blogged lately because I had Spring break...I have to keep blogging for my English!
I went to New York over Spring break. New York was the place that I wanted to visit by the time I left the United States. Finally I obtained the chance to go there with my friends, so I was very excited and I owed my parents about it.

I was wondering about New York before I visited. First of all, I thought it was like Tokyo, Japan. I imagined that there were lots of buildings, the people there walked fast, and New York was hectic. All I had thought about New York was exactly true. However, actually New York was beyond my ideas.

While my friends and I were walking around Manhattan, New York, I really felt New York. Then, I realized that New York had one totally different point from Tokyo. That is that there were various ethnic groups there. Surely I felt about a melting pot of races due to them. Therefore, There were many kinds of English in New York. What I am trying to say is that the people who speak English with various accents existed there. As a result, I did not have to care about my English that has a Japanese accent. I have been trying to fix it, but it is very difficult becasue my native language is Japanese. That many kinds of English existed made me more comfortable than I spoke English in Manhattan, Kansas. In Kansas, I am likely to be nervous and care about my accent when I speak English because most of the people around me are native English speakers. Though it is good for learning proper English, speaking English with various accents is usual in New York. My experience in New York was interesting and really influenced me.
