I didn't know that the intersection of 237th st and Crenshaw prohibits going straight through from west to east ( I don't understand why it's prohibited to go straight through. ) I was ticketed.
I'm thinking of doing an online traffic school, but the online traffic school I took about 6 years ago was so easy that I could finish it in 30 minutes, but the online traffic school I took 3 years ago was broken up into chapters, The online traffic school I took 3 years ago was so easy that I could finish it in half an hour.
Do you know of anywhere that is easy enough to finish in 30 minutes or so ??

Did anyone see the FCI Japanese news broadcast on the morning of May 18? ?
In between the news footage, there was a voice that had nothing to do with the content of the news. I'm glad to see you again", and twice.
This voice had nothing to do with the news that was being broadcast at the time.
Is this a broadcast accident? ?
Was it on other people's TVs as well? ?
I didn't pay much attention the first time, but since it came in twice, it was like a psychic phenomenon and scared me a little. If anyone says they heard it too, I would be glad if you could respond.
If it was just in my house, it would be too scary ・ ・ ・

How to send packages from Hawaii at the lowest price

The last time I brought my stuff back from Hawaii by myself, I was charged a huge overage fee and it ended up being too heavy and not worth it.

Most of the contents are Hawaiian clothes, bags and souvenirs.

I always carry on as much as possible. I bring a Boston bag on top of a smaller suitcase that can be carried in, and put the suitcase in the top compartment and the Boston under the seat in front of me. If I can't fit it in, I put it in a cardboard box and send it by fedex or usps, but
usps is surprisingly expensive. I don't know how much the check-in surcharge is, but it is also expensive to send heavy items.

You could pack it up and take it to a UPS office and get a quote.

Thank you very much Aloha. I will try to take full advantage of the carry-on as much as possible. With my sister, who broke her arm last time, we kept our carry-on luggage to a minimum, so that may have been a factor.
The largest box that can be sent by USPS Flat Rate is not very big, and the price seems to vary from Hawaii to Hawaii. I thought the post office was the cheapest, but I will look into FedEx and UPS ! Thank you very much !.

We recommend a service called Pirate Ship. Even if you do not have a business account, you can purchase labels at a discounted price for broker accounts that Pirate Ship has. It is not very cheap, but it is about 10% less than the regular price.

Membership Fees: SAM'S CLUB memberships range from about $45 to $100 per year; COSTCO memberships range from about $60 to $120 per year.

Merchandise assortment: Both stores carry a wide range of merchandise, but some products and brands may vary. Product availability and variety may also vary by region. In general, COSTCO focuses on fresh produce and has a larger selection.

Number of stores: COSTCO has many stores worldwide, while SAM'S CLUB has slightly fewer stores than COSTCO.

Services: Both stores offer merchandise at discounted prices, but COSTCO may have an additional advantage in terms of discounted prices, special membership benefits, and exclusive offers.

Which one you prefer depends on your personal preferences and needs.

COSTCO is available in Japan even for US members.

I think it is possible to do it when you enter the store
because you have to go through a special procedure at the cashier
when I went there, it took a little time and I felt sorry for the people around me .

SAMS is a lot easier to shop at than costco because it is totally empty.

Do you have any recommendations for parking at LAX for a few days ?
After doing some research, I'm thinking of parking at one of the parking lots in the area because the parking lots in LAX are a bit expensive.
By the way, we are planning to depart from Terminal 3 late at night.
If we take a shuttle bus to the airport, we would like one that operates midnight and early morning.

If you have any recommendations or know of any information, I would appreciate it !
Thank you very much.

Also, I would like to know about other types of lessons that cost a lot of money in addition to the monthly fee, such as fees for recitals, trips, costumes, and equipment. I don't want my child to be the only one who can't participate in this program due to financial reasons. Please share your experiences.

I'm not sure about the monthly fees, but I used to use Park and YMCA programs a lot.
They have not only exercise programs but also piano and other programs.
I think the cost is reasonable, so why don't you inquire at least once in your neighborhood ?.

First, you have to know what the children want to do. For example, they want to learn ballet, but you can't tell them to play soccer
because it costs money, or they want to play basketball
but you can't tell them to learn calligraphy because it costs money to go on trips.
(For example.
First, let the kids name 2 or 3 things they want to do
and then you can consider ? children get bored easily, so if you make them learn something they don't want to learn
because of money, it is
a waste of money and time. It's a waste of money and time. Also, even if you ask here
, it would be easier to answer if you give more specifics about what you want to learn.

Yes, if you could be a little more specific, I'm sure many of us could give you our opinions.
I think elementary school students are very different from first graders and fifth graders. 。。。。 And boys and girls will have different
advice.

But, in general, individual sports are expensive. If you're a girl, figure skating or gymnastics is robustly expensive. At first, they let their children learn just for fun, but as they get better, they are told that they will be placed in an athletes' course and will be required to attend twice a week... At first, parents are happy and wonder if their children have potential ? and let them attend twice a week, but eventually it becomes three or four weeks. 。。。。 The monthly fee goes up and up and up. And when they start participating in tournaments, parents are also asked to volunteer, and the cost of coaching ( lodging, airfare, and meals ) are paid for by the parents who go to the tournaments. I was surprised how much money it cost when my child did well and had to play in another state or in Hawaii.

The same is true for figure skating. As you get better, you have to hire your own coach, rent out the rink for morning practice, etc. Costumes for competitions are also expensive. Costumes for competitions are also expensive. If you are a girl, I felt that figure skating and gymnastics are the two sports you should stay away from if you can't afford it💦

I don't have any experience, but I think team sports are still less expensive ?.


In the summer, swimming looked like fun with the programs that the City was doing. If you go to a slightly larger park, I think you can get a guide to those programs. The ones that City offers are very inexpensive. However, the piano classes were cheap or bad. If you go to a big park, there is always a building that offers such activities, so I think you should go there and get a brochure. Some programs are year-round and some are specifically for summer vacation. They are just cheaper, so registration can get crowded.

I am planning to study abroad near Torrance from the end of July to the end of August this year, but I don't know how to find a homestay.
Since I will only be there for one month, I would like to go to an adult school without an F1 visa, and I would like to experience cross-cultural exchange and communication in English with a homestay family.
I have heard from people that it is difficult to find a homestay family for a short period of time,
・ I would like to know how to find a homestay family

or how to look for one in [VIVINAVI]. ( ; ; )

I am in my fourth year of university. I would like to study abroad ( for the rest of my university life, which I have not had a chance to do so far ) for the purpose of sightseeing and interacting with people with different values, cultures and languages
even for a short period of time. I know it is difficult to improve my English in a short period of time.
( I have been listening to the same TED speech dozens of times, but I would really like to know if there are any other study methods I should try before I go ! ! )

Any advice or suggestions would be appreciated. I would appreciate any advice or comments !.
