This guy was driving a car in downtown Dallas with a broken wheel. I wonder how far he has driven? 🤔 Every day, downtown Dallas has something weird or crazy going on. Do things like this happen in Japan? **Language**: Japanese *6 likes · 6 comments · 170 views* [View this moment](https://www.hellotalk.com/moments/FDOxW0tIHjBNHD.md) --- ## 2. 8/18/2025 今日はアイススケート場に行きました。また暑い日ですが、毎週日曜日にリンクに行くと涼しくなります。 経験豊富なアイススケーターが私を褒めてくれました。彼は私がかなり上手だと言った。しかし、私はそれほど優れているとは思いません。4月からアイススケートを始めましたが、まだ中途半端だと思います。 でも、それでもとても楽しいです。最高のスケーターになりたいとは思っていません。ただ楽しみながら、同時に小さなことでも改善していきたいと思っています。 Today, I went to the ice rink. It’s another hot day, but going to the rink every Sunday helps me cool off. An experienced ice skater complimented me. He said I was pretty good. However, I don’t think I am that good. I started ice skating in April, and I still am mediocre. But, I still have a lot of fun. I don’t want to be the best skater. I just want to have fun, while at the same time improve on the small things. **Language**: Japanese *12 likes · 1 comments · 162 views* [View this moment](https://www.hellotalk.com/moments/VNtUyQqDBPyjHD.md) --- ## 3. 8/17/2025 剣道の面条をもらいました。正式に3級になりました。まだ学ぶべきことがたくさんあります。しかし、私はこれからも一生懸命努力し、できる限り成長していきます。次の試験は9月なので、もっと練習する必要があります。 I received my Kendo Menjo. I'm officially ranked 3rd kyu. I still have a lot to learn, but I will continue to work hard and improve as much as I can. My next exam is in September, so I need to practice more. **Language**: Japanese *20 likes · 4 comments · 241 views* [View this moment](https://www.hellotalk.com/moments/RUZKA5L4qbujHD.md) --- ## 4. 8/12/2025 ここは実際の高校のカフェテリアです。アレン市のこの高校の近くに住んでいます。テキサス州最大の学校であり、米国でも最大級の学校の一つです。この高校のカフェテリアにはピザハットとサブウェイがあるんです！　下のビデオではカフェテリアの様子をさらにご覧いただけます。 ピザハットやサブウェイがある高校は他に知りません。そういったレストランは大学のカフェテリアでよく見かけます。しかし、よく言われるように、「テキサスではすべてが大きい」のです。 日本のカフェテリアはどんな感じでしょうか？ This is an actual high school cafeteria. I live near this high school in the city of Allen. It is the largest school in texas, and one of the largest in the US. The cafeteria at this high school has a Pizza Hut and a Subway! The video below shows more of the cafeteria. I don’t know any other high school that has a Pizza Hut or a Subway. You usually see those restaurants in college cafeterias. But it’s as we say: “everything is bigger in Texas.” What are cafeterias in Japan like? **Language**: Japanese *11 likes · 1 comments · 186 views* [View this moment](https://www.hellotalk.com/moments/uKvIyUOvzDIjHD.md) --- ## 5. 8/6/2025 日本の友達の皆さん、今とても暑いと聞きました。 テキサスもとても暑いです。夏の間、特定の活動をして涼しく過ごすようにしています。 たとえば、プールで泳ぐのが好きです。また、最近アイススケートを始めました。アイススケートリンクでは、常に涼しさが保たれています。数時間アイススケートをするのは暑さから逃れるのに最適な方法です。 どうやって暑さを逃れますか？ To all my friends in Japan, I heard it’s really hot. It’s also very hot in Texas as well. During the summer, I try to stay cool by doing certain activities. For example, I like to swim in the pool. Also, I recently started ice skating. In the ice rink, they always keep it cool. Ice skating for a couple of hours is a great way to escape the heat. How would you escape the heat? **Language**: Japanese *63 likes · 2 comments · 1760 views* [View this moment](https://www.hellotalk.com/moments/IGPMAuZaZSOjHD.md) --- ## 6. 8/2/2025 日本のマクドナルドがトレーディングカードを配布している。子供の頃にポケモンカードを集めていた頃を思い出します。 アメリカで最初のポケモン映画が公開されたとき、バーガーキングがキッズメニューにポケモンのおもちゃを付けていたのも覚えています。あの頃が懐かしい… 😢 ポケモンカードを集めていましたか？ McDonald's in Japan is giving away Pokemon cards with a Happy Meal. This reminds me of when I used to collect Pokemon cards when I was a kid. I remember when the first Pokémon movie came to the US, and Burger King had Pokémon toys with their kids' meals. I miss those days… 😢 Did you collect Pokemon cards? **Language**: Japanese *14 likes · 2 comments · 355 views* [View this moment](https://www.hellotalk.com/moments/WaTQVwO1DaqtHD.md) --- [View all moments on HelloTalk](https://www.hellotalk.com/partners/ho_codygonzales/moments.md) [Back to Cody コーディ's profile](https://www.hellotalk.com/partners/ho_codygonzales.md) --- ## Language Exchange Partners -
