#9 Do you like art?

Tidbit Note -Practice English With Me- ·

2024/02/28

I am not a person with an interest and hobby of art.However, I fully understand that art is something people are passionate about doing, watching or discussing. People love asking "Do you like art?""What style of art do you like?" or"Any favorite artists or museums?" Very tough question for me. I need small pieces of information because I have nothing. I need something to keep this conversation going. Let's prepare some. By the way, do you know what's art? I

We have a lot of opportunities to talk about our own hometown since Vancouver is a melting pot where people from all over the world. People ask "Where are you from?" with each other all the time. Honestly, I am kind of tired of this question and since once I told them I am from Japan, the second words tend to be "Arigatou gozaimasu" and "Konichiwa" which requires me to praise them like "Wow that is impressive""Good pronunciation" or something.

#7 Bucket List

2024/02/15

This is something really fantastic to think about. Today we are going to talk about Bucket List. This is a list of several experiences or achievements that a person hopes to have or accomplish during their lifetime. Back in 1999, the screenwriter Justin Zackham was thinking about that phrase when he began composing a checklist that he called, “Justin's list of things to do before he kicks the bucket.” The idiom "kick the bucket" is really common that means pass away, die. After a

2024/02/07

This question is really common in any English exam such as IELTS as well as in a casual conversation among friends. This question always breaks my ass. Now you can guess why. Yes, because I am not a big fan of movies. I seldom watch movies even if we better watch them as much as we can to attain new vocabulary. But it is hard to stay in front of the screen or laptop for over 2 hours, in most cases, I will most likely fall asleep... However, preparation should be the key. The only purpose we are

2024/02/01

Is there any travel that you won't be able to forget in your life? Where was the best destination you have ever been to? How do you like it and what made it the best? People love talking about their vacation. This is one of the most remarkable traits of Canadians I have been aware of after moving to Canada. Japanese people also do talk about their vacations but not as much as Canadians. Rather we do only when people "inquire" you. One of the reasons behind this should be, in my

2024/01/26

So the question we expect from a future friend today is “What kinds of music do you like to listen to?” Talking about music is pretty tough for me because I am not enthusiastic about any kind of music. But I am sure this is a widespread topic among people all over the world so there is a high chance that I would be involved in the conversation about music. Before we look at my answer, let’s glance at the genre of music. According to ChatGPT, here are some broad categories that give us an overview

2024/01/17

In our fast-paced world, free time feels like a secret treasure. What we choose to do with it tells a story about our interests, passions, and who we are as people. Regardless of where you live, you've been asked "What do you like to do in your free time?" in social or professional situations. This question is a little bit tricky because we need to change the answer depending on the setting. If you are asked in a job interview, you might want to emphasize hobbies that show skills

During Christmas Holiday Season, I was asked the following questions by a certain Canadian which made me a little bit confused to answer. "What does Christmas look like in Japan?" "I heard many Japanese people eat KFC on Christmas Day, is that correct?" "Do you guys even celebrate Christmas as Buddhists?" How do you answer if you are living in Japan? Any thoughts on these questions? First of all, to answer the question "What does Christmas look like in
