A month ago, August 24, 2014 we came in
Japan. In the first 2-week, we spent our time in many places in Hokkaido. We
stayed at Sapporo House YH in Kita 8 for a week, and then we moved to Greenpia
Onuma in Mori Machi (Mori City), and the last we stay at Classe Stay Sapporo
Station in 8-1 Kita 10 Nishi 1 Kita-ku Sapporo. In addition, because I was in
agricultural subject, I also spent 4 days in livestock farm of Hokkaido University,
in Shizunai, Hidaka sub
prefecture.
In the Summer Pare Program, 2 weeks are
become like a traveling time every day. In 2 weeks, I lived in 4
places! But, I do enjoy it. In the first week when we were in Sapporo
House YH, we also visited Tomakomai city (Tomakomai Oil Storage, Tomakomai City
Government, Tomatoh-atsuma thermal power station & solar plant), Sapporo
City (Maruyama Zoo), Ishikari City (Ishikari LNG terminal and community wind power), Ebetsu City (Machimura Farm). In the 2nd
week, we visited Toyako Cho (JA Toyako- snow storage, Abuta power plant-hydro
power plant), Mori Machi (Mori power plant-geothermal power plant, and greenhouse-geothermal
heating system), and Hakodate City (Hakodate Research Center for Fisheries and
Oceans and Hakodate Beach). What a wonderful journey for travelling around
Hokkaido! I do really miss you all guys,, need time machine (Boong said ^_^).
My big suitcases |
I stay at Building 2 (the newest building-construction
in 2010) in room number 609 (6th floor). The security level of this building is
very high. Finger print is the “key” for entering the building and also the
room. We have to put our finger in finger detection machine to enter the building.
And for the rooms, each floor consists of 8 rooms that divided into 2 wings. Each
wing has the “wing” door (I don’t know the name, so just call it as wing door) that
also need finger print for opening. Only finger print from person who lived there
that can open the “wing” door. And we have our room key. So, just like I can
enter the building, enter my “wing”, enter my room, but I can’t enter other wings
and rooms. They also have CCTV camera in elevator and many places. It is very
strict. This dormitory provides us many good facilities. In each wing we have
common room (include TV), kitchen, laundry (2 machines), toilet (3), shower
(2), and shoe box. In our room we have bed, desk, chair, bookshelf, refrigerator
(it is big), private sink, electric heating, curtains, phone and optical fiber
Internet. So, we can have the internet connection easily (it is become main
needed now). For the phone we can use it to call other student phone, so just
in the building. Other facilities are bike parking area and mailbox. And because
this building is just 4 years old, so everything is just like new!

The room ^_^ |
My room is in the 6th floor. Every room is facing to East or West, so we can see sunrise or sunset. My room is facing to West. In the evening I can see the sunset beautifully. This is one of the most exited things about my dormitory.
Sunrise in cloudy (from common room side) |
