My favorite

I will tell you about something which will be my favorite thing. It is surfing. I have never enjoyed surfboard before, but I am going to try it the week after next with a friend of mine. I am very exciting about it.
One of my cousins went to Hawaii and study there for 1 year before. When she returned Japan, I heard her Hawaiian life. She really enjoyed there. She went to the ocean everyday and she enjoyed surfboard there. I thought that I want to try surfing when I heard her this story.
I was interested in surfing a little before then. Last winter, I watched a drama on TV. The title is 'beyond the break.' I have been interested in surfing a lot since then. This drama made by America. It is surfing story. The scene of this drama is Hawaii. There are beautiful blue sky, white beach, big ocean and big wave!! I want to go there someday. The story's main characters are 4 girls. They are player of surfing. They really love surfing. Sometimes, they have some problems but they cooperate with each to solve the problems. They are so cool! Their skill of surfing is so great. It is an exciting drama.
I really wanted to try surfing, but I can’t. Because I have a sunshine allergy so I can’t go beach. In addition, I don’t know how to do it. Then, why I can try to surfboard?
One day, a friend of mine came to my part tome job. He and I enjoyed a little talking. Then, he said ‘I go to Miyazaki every Sunday to enjoy surfing.’ In addition, ‘If you want to try it, I can teach you surfing’ he said. I was so happy to hear that. So, I can try to surfing. I am very excited about this plan.
Surfing will be my favorite!!
