The classes are what I've really wanted. They seem tough. The classes I took previous semester were too easy. So I'm satisfied with and excited about taking them.
今日は今セメスターの初日。
授業は自分が望んでいたものだった。難しそうだ。前セメスターの授業が簡単過ぎたので、今回のに満足していて、わくわくしている。
As I wrote the previous post, today's classes were introductions. As we haven't had assignments yet, I had free time in the evening. So I went for a walk around the campus. During the summer in Japan, I often worked out and to keep on working out is a decision I made before I came back to college. That's why I walked today.
前回のブログに書いたように、授業はイントロだった。まだ宿題は出ていないので、夕方から時間が空いた。それでキャンパスのまわりを歩いた。夏、日本にいる間、よく運動していて、アメリカに帰っても続けようと決めていたのだ。
There is a path, which is for bikes, inline skaters, joggers and walkers and is constructed by the city of Amherst, along a creek and I walked on the path. Part of the path is on campus, and part of it is on private place, and it stretches over 5 miles. I mainly walked on campus part, and it was three-hour walk, 6 miles or 9.6 km. This purpose of the walk was not only for diet but also for overcoming the jet lag I'm suffering. While I was walking, 4:30 to 7:30, I was extremely sleepy. It's quite natural because I fall a sleep at 4 and wake up midnight in Buffalo due to the jet lag. By walking during the time, I had to stay awake and get exhausted. SoI thought I'd want to go to bed at right time at night. It's 9 O'clock now. So I don't know it'd work well but I'll realize its result when I wake up.
バイク、インラインスケート、ジョギングする人、歩く人用に道が川沿いに整備されていて、そこを歩いた。一部はキャンパス内、一部は私有地に通っていて全長8キロにもなる。主にキャンパス部を歩いて、結局3時間、9.6キロも歩いた。健康のためもあるが、実は時差ぼけを治すためでもある。4:30から7:30まで歩いている間、非常に眠かった。それも当然。アメリカに帰ってきていつも夕方4時に寝て、夜中に起きているのだから。歩くことで、夜まで起きていられ、しかも疲れる。だから夜に眠れるはず。今９時だ。明日起きた時点でこれが効果あったか分かる訳だ。

This looks like a golf course, doesn't it?
A house and its yard by a creek. Pretty beautiful!
