Getting Lost

Aug 31, 2017 23:23
Today I got lost in Kumamoto University.

I'm often confused about the direction I'm heading when I go to a new land.

In the university, I watched a map made of paper, thought like "okay, I understand the route," and started walking.

However, the destination was in the completely opposite direction.

Recently I may depend on Google Map too much.

There are many places where Google Map doesn't work, such as premises of universities or underground, I think that I have to do practice to be able read paper maps.

Anyway, I will be careful not to get lost in my life.
迷子

今日、私は熊本大学で迷子になりました。

新しい土地では、今どちらを向いているかよくわからなくなります。

紙の地図を見て、「よし、こっちだ」と歩いていったら、目的地は正反対の方向でした。

最近私は、Google Mapに頼りすぎているかもしれません。

大学のキャンパス内や地下など、Google Mapが使えない場所はまだまだ多いので、地図を読む練習をしたほうが良さそうです。

人生の迷子にはならないように、気をつけます。

    "a new land" sounds like an entirely new part of the world, rather than a different part of Japan. It sounds like well used hyperbole, however, so I left it.

    "practice" is just it's own verb in English
