RYOKO FUNABASHI

Dear friends,
My name is Ryoko Funabashi. I came from Japan, Nagoya. My major is Intercultural Communication and I want to be a teacher who teaches Japanese in the future. Also, as you know, I am passionate about everything so some people often say that your character is not typical of Japanese. What do you think? Although my character sometimes makes me tired and confused, I like myself. I will introduce my strength and weakness.
My strength is that I am diligent. I never come to class late. In addition, I am take part in classes actively and insist my opinion every time. The next strength is that I am positive. Even though I run into troubles and difficulty, I believe I can handle troubles; in other words, I always try to see bright side. Final strength is that I often smile. Even though I am sad, I try to smile because Smiling makes people happy and combatable. I think when we smile, fortune smiles on people.
I also have a lot of weaknesses….
My weakness is that I can’t manipulate machines such as a computer, a washing machine, and a microwave. Whenever I touch machines, something happens. In addition, I often speak loudly. My American roomy always says “Ryoko does not need a microphone in your life!!” she is malicious isn’t she? The most serious weakness is that I am very outspoken. I often regret what I had said. I need to think twice before speaking out!
Everyone has strengths and weaknesses like me. I want to know your strengths and weaknesses; I want you to know my character. Any way I am really happy to study with you!
