Elena’s World IV: Part 2

What are you reading lately?
These days I am still reading many Japanese books. I read English all day long at school so when I come home I want to read in Japanese. I am reading little books that cover all kinds of subjects.

Tell us about the past year in Tennessee. What have you learned?
We visited a lot of places in the States and a bit in Canada when we visited Grampa. We’ve been driving all over the place in Tennessee, down to Florida, and up to Canada. I think maybe I liked it the most when went to the hiking trails in the state park (Montgomery Bell State Park –ed). It was nice family time just walking around in the forest.

What’s your favorite subject at school?
Orchestra. I like playing the violin more than the flute. I’ll probably continue playing only the violin.

What’s your favorite thing to do in your spare time?
Watching movies. I get to watch them with my friends from school.

What would you like to say to your future self?
When I am 18, I would like my parents to buy me a car. OK, I don’t really want a car that much.  I do want them to pay for my college. I don’t know which one yet, but for sure the one that I end up attending. I am still trying to figure out what I want to do.
To future Elena: I hope you are happy. I hope there is less fighting in our family and that Marina can study by herself more. And be a diligent person with better table manners.
