I visited NewYork for the first time. As a matter of fact, I had had a thing for I had tried something for NewYork since I was a child. Because, there used to be a Japanese quiz show that named "Trans America Ultra Quiz" (アメリカ横断ウルトラクイズ) 1977-1992. The slogan of it was "Intelligence, Strength, Luck"(知力、体力、時の運) *訳はこれでいいのかな？どなたか適切な英訳頼みます。 It could be attended anyone who is over 18 years old except for high school students. Anyone who was over 18 years old was able to take part in it, except for high school students. Challenging this TV show had been one of my dreams since I was a child,however it was over before I was getting on 18 years old.
That show's content was that the challengers from all over Japan, try to quiz travering America. The loser have to do penalty game(罰ゲーム：Batsu Game) and then go back to Japan immedeately.immediately. The final stage used to be held at in NewYork evry time. I remember the theme music of it still now. Visiting NewYork was also one of my dreams, so I loved this quiz show. My dream came true at last.
The first visiting NewYork was so wonderful for me as I expected.
Hi, eko. Long time no see! How are you? I remember the talk about "ash to Potomac River". In my case, it is " sleeping forever in New York". When I went to the top of the Empire State Building for the first time, I thought I would live in this city. When I saw the Statue of Liberty, I decided to become great... I love New York. So, I am looking forward to reading your stories in NY!! See you.

The TV show's content was this: the challengers come from all over Japan and try to answer a quiz question while traveling . All the losers have to play penalty games(罰ゲーム：Batsu Game) and then come back to their own contry immediately. The final stage was held in NewYork every time. I still remember the theme music clearly. It has been one of my dreams to visit NewYork,because I love this quiz show. Now my dream comes true that the first visit to NewYork is so wonderful for me as I expected.
Thanks for coming everyone, and I appreciate your comments. I never know my mistakes when you give some tips, so I'm so glad to have your useful tips.
Now, I study English using textbook for high school students. I used to use it when I was a high school student. I found it at my parents' home. I should study hard from beginning.
I have no confidence whether I'm able to write it in correct English, however I'll keep going.
I lived in Rockville, MD for 3 years and half. Despite the fact I'm poor at English.... I try to write about memories of life in the U.S to practice English. Maybe you will find many mistakes on it, so please correct them!
