I think I’ve been there a few times as a little kid, but I totally forgot, so it's practically my first time. I really love the atmosphere—so comfortable. I looked up its history on a whim and found out it started in California in the 1950s. I’ve always naturally been drawn to American things since I was a little kid whatever I do—like when it comes to watching baseball games as a kid, I'd always love watching MLB(of the U.S) not the Japanese one, and naturally feel(typo: felt) comfortable not just fun. Well, I ordered the Jambalaya Chicken, and it was so good. Someday, I’d love to visit a real American-style diner. It’s one of my little big dreams. [JPN] (the plane text in the comment box)こないだ、Denny'sに行(い)きました。子供(こども)の頃(ころ)に何回(なんかい)か行ったことがある気がしますが、完全(かんぜん)に忘(わす)れたので、これは実質的(じっしつてき)に初(はじ)めてです。雰囲気(ふんいき) が ほんとに 好(す)きです。すごく居心地(いここち)が いいです。 ふと気になって Denny'sの歴史(れきし) を 調べてみました、すると1950年代にカリフォルニアで 始まったとわかりました。僕(ぼく)は子供の頃から、いつも自然とアメリカのものに惹(ひ)かれてきました、何をするにしても, たとえば、子供のとき、野球(やきゅう)となれば、ずっとアメリカのMLBを見てました、日本のものではなくて。自然(しぜん)と心地良く感じていました、ただ楽しいだけではなくて。 Well, ジャンバラヤチキンを注文しました、とても良かったです。いつか、本当(ほんとう)のアメリカのダイナーに行きたいです。僕のちょっとした大きな夢(ゆめ)の1つです。 --- I’d be grateful if you could point out anytime my speaking sounds off, even a little. That’s the area I care most about right now. I’m naturally pretty chatty and expressive in Japanese, but I feel like there’s a gap when I switch to English. Until I’m able to speak fluently and comfortably, it feels like I’m holding back a part of who I am. I love voice messages.
