Christmas party !!

Good evening, everyone. How are you? Have you enjoy your winter vacation? I want to write about our Christmas party today. I wrote about it before, do you remember? Anyway, the party was so fun and I enjoyed the day with my friends.

 First, we went to a 390 mart which is a shop all 390 yen, and we bought a thing which became our Christmas present each other. And then, we went to karaoke. I don’t like singing, because I am not good at sing a songs, so I have always listened songs which everyone have sung. I have enjoyed just listening, but then I had to sing something. That was so hard, but I sang. I was really sorry to everyone, because it was too terrible. I know that I can’t sing any song well. And I decided that I have never sung when I go to karaoke with my friends. That’s good for everyone. However, everyone except me were very good at singing, so I could enjoy the time.

 When we had dinner in mark. J which is name of the restaurant, we presented each other. I got this. This is a saving bank and it is also a light which 7 colors. I enjoyed my Christmas, and I will not forget this memory.

That’s all today. Thank you for reading : )

 Dick Whittington who is this tale’s hero was a very poor boy, but he was not a lazy boy. I thought that he must be great parson before I finished reading, because I couldn’t find out his parents, but he tried to live himself. Dick was just a boy, but he had great will. Mrs. Curry was not good woman for Dick, but he could meet great people in London. I was really surprised at his acting which sold Tom which his cat and helped him very much.

Strange creatures

Hello, everyone. I am going to write about my funny friend.

December 9th was the friend’s birthday which became 20 years old, and I sent e-mail like that “Happy Birthday!! I wish your happiness.” I went to a shopping center to buy the birthday present for her. She likes deep fish recently, so I wanted to present her one of them. However, there was no deep fish’s goods like a book, or a photo book. So I decided to buy on the internet, and I could find out a book about deep fish with some pictures. I didn’t understand why she likes them, but some of them are beautiful and mysterious, so I could know her feeling a little bit.

We hardly know about deep sea, and people think that there are many mysteries which nobody knows the reasons. A lot of strange fish in there, and they may have great wisdoms which survive in bad environment. There are lots of creatures which we don’t know, and we should know that the way we can live with them. It is so important for all of human to survive in environment which is worse than now.

I want to introduce you any creatures which you may not know.

A Little Bit of Heaven

Good evening, everyone. I am going to write about a movie which I watched yesterday.

The movie name is A Little Bit of Heaven, and the Japanese title is Watashi dake no Happy ending. The story is that a woman who enjoyed her life include her job and her friendship or relationship is cancer which will be die, and she met the God who looked like Whoopi Goldberg. The God said to her, “ I will grant your three wishes.” The first her wish is flying, the second wish is 100 million dollars, and the last one is …


 My favorite scene is when Mally went out to eat lunch with her father who always talk about money and often quarrels with her mother. She doesn’t like her father, but he just didn’t know what he do, what he can do for his precious daughter. Then he told her that he has thought, and he loves her so much. She was glad and satisfies to hear that. She came over a lot of problem, sadness, and fear to die with around people who love her. The last scene was so great, and I couldn’t stop crying. This movie made me sad, but I was so moved. I want to live with smile and laughing everyday, and go to heaven without any regrets.

 I recommend you to watch this movie, so please watch if you have a time.

BR2-13 Marie Antoinette

“ 'It’s not safe here. You must leave with the children.’ ‘But my place is by your side,’ she replied.” (p.56)

What do you recall when you’re asked about Marie Antoinette? I will recall the famous word which she said ‘Then let them eat cake.’ before, but that was not her word. I was thinking that Marie was a selfish woman and she has wasteful habits, but it was not true. She has wasteful habits little, but it made not France collapse. She was a good mother and loved wife, but there were people who hate her, so her public estimation was bad. She loved her husband, Louis and their children, but her son had dead seven years old. And the Revolution was killed Louis and Marie. I was really sad, because Marie was killed kept the misunderstanding about her life. If she had not misunderstanding, she could live more. I want to be a person who don’t delude rumors and estimations.

MR-5 Much Ado About Nothing

Hello, everyone. This is my movie review. I watched Much Ado About Nothing as number 5 review. Have you watched the movie? I thought that the story was written by Shakespeare, so it may be difficult to me. However, I could enjoy the movie, so I recommend you to watch this one.

I knew this story was written by William Shakespeare, but I didn’t know what this story was about, so I was looking forward to watching this movie. This movie is kind of a love story and a comedy, but there were sad parts, too. I have read his works, and I’m always absorbed in reading them. Also, I enjoyed this movie. I don’t know all of William Shakespeare’s work now, but I want to know more of his works.

There were two pairs of lovers, and main lovers were Hero, who was daughter of Leonato and Claudio, but I like Beatrice, who was the cousin of Hero and Benedick, who was a companion of Don Pedro, better than Hero and Claudio. Beatrice and Benedick were tricked by the people around them who want them to be fall in love with each other, so they were not in love with each other at first, but they fell in love gradually. I was surprised at their simplicity, and I thought that nobody knows when love starts. The story was about marriage, and Don John, who is Don Pedro’s brother, is upset by the marriage of Hero and Claudio, because he doesn’t like his brother. I was sad, and I want everyone to believe that she was innocent.

My favorite scene is when Beatrice was indignant at Claudio and Don Pedro, and entreated Benedick to duel with Claudio. There were a lot of loves which for Hero or Beatrice in this scene. Benedick said yes to Beatrice, because he loved her. I was really moved, because he had said he didn’t want to be bound in a marriage, but he changed since he fell in love. That was good for him to find a person who he can love. I like Dogberry and Verges, too. I didn’t understand what they were doing at first, because they acted as if they were riding horses. However, they were good at pretending to ride a horse, so I enjoyed their scene. Dogberry was not clever, but he had a great partner who could understand what Dogberry wanted to say. I felt that it was great to come into his mind with so many mistakes, so Shakespeare had great talent. I want to watch more of his works.

My favorite book

Hello, everyone. This is my typing homework, and the topic is my favorite book. Do you like reading?

 I like reading, so I always reading books when I was a elementary school student to junior high school student. I love reading still now, but I don’t have a time to read. However, I can meet new books which I have never read as assignments of my classes. That is good for me, they told me new world which I didn’t know. I have read books which were written by famous writers, so I know that the books must be interesting, because the books are loved around the world still today. My favorite book is Pride and Prejudice which was written by Jane Austen. I have read the book as an assignment of English literary survey, and that is interesting for me, because there were many knowledge about Britain’s life at that time, so I could know what I didn’t know. The story was a love story, but the love was very difficult to end with happiness. I want to read other works of Jane.

And I didn't know that Pride and Prejudice became a movie, and the actress who played the heroine in the movie is my favorite actress. She is so beautiful. I want to watch the movie soon.


 I have enjoyed reading comic books these days, and I have read One Piece now. That is very famous comic books all over the world, so you have already heard at least once. I have rented them from my friend Sakura who is in Eibei, and now I had finished reading 39, so I want to read next story as soon as possible.

BR2-12 Aesop's Fables

“And the moral is … Be happy with what you have.” (p.47)

Everybody knows the stories, Aesop’s Fables all over the world. The stories told us a lot of morals which we have to know. This book which I read has 7 stories, and they taught me what we have to remember in our life. As you know, all of the moral have illustrated by story, so that makes easy to understand. The tortoise and the hare is the most familiar one of Aesop’s fables in Japan, but we don’t know the man who was written them hardly. These stories started telling long time ago, so nobody knows who the first was. However, a man who lived in Greece so long ago, Aesop may write them. Also, no one knows about Aesop, but I think that he must be respect by around his people from at the time.

BR2-11 The Wizard of Oz

“Then she picked up Toto and closed her eyes. ‘East, west ― home’s best,’ she said ― and jumped. (p.40)

This scene is one of the most famous scenes in this story, and the scene has many different ways like she said ‘My home is the best.’ and knocked her heel three times in Japan. I love this scene, because Dorothy could get home finally. She went to Oz which she didn’t know anything in the world suddenly, and she helped her friends. Her friends were Scarecrow which wanted to the brain, Tin Man which wanted to the heart and Cowardly Lion. Dorothy was going to go the Emerald City with them. I really surprised at a rule which everybody who came to the city must put glasses on. That’s funny. I want to be strong like Dorothy, because she confronted hardship with determination. Of course, she was afraid of the things which she has not known ever, and she was just a girl. When I finished reading I really thought that there is no place like home.

MR-4 Monsters, Inc.

I like this movie, so I have watched it many times, and this movie makes me happy and enjoy myself everytime. I think that everyone has memories from when they were children which were scary when they were alone at night.

A town which the monsters live in the movie needs energy for living, and they translated children’s screams into that power. The monster’s job was scaring children, but they were afraid of children, too. My favorite character is Mike who has only one eye and yellow green skin. He is a good friend of Sulley who is the main character in this movie, and he has fallen in love with Celia who has only one eye, too. He is a monster who is easily elated, but he is kind to Boo who is a human girl. I like him, because he is a really good monster and he can make people who around him laugh. When I watched him, I could know that the most important thing in life is friendship.

Also, I know that Mike is loved all over the world, because he often appears other Disney movies like Finding Nemo, Cars, WALL-E and Toy Story 3. I want to find where he appears when I watch these movies. My favorite scene is when Mike fixed up the door to Boo’s room, and presented it to Sulley. Sulley became the president of their company, and the company changed the way they made the power which they need. They decided to translate children’s laughter into that power, because the laughter is stronger than screams and they don’t want to be scare children anymore. The company became more and more prosperous, but as he passed every day, he still felt grief because he could never meet Boo again. Mike fixed that up for Sulley, so his hand has a lot of splinters looking for those piecesand putting them together. I was really moved by Mike’s consideration for Sully.

I want to be like him. This movie was made by Walt Disney Pictures and Pixar Animation Studios, and they always make enjoyable movies and give us lots of wonderful moments. I have great news about their next movie. Monsters University, which is the sequel to Monsters, Inc, will begin playing around the world in 2013. I am looking forward to watching the next movie. I decided to watch this movie again before I go to watch new one.

That's all today. Thank you for reading :)

BR2-10 The Mummy

“And Imhotep, the man, died. But he said something before he died. He said ‘This is not the end.’ ” (p.35)

This is one of my favorite movies. I can’t remember how many times I watched this movie, so I chose this as my book review. I enjoyed reading this book, because many picture were in the book, so I could remember the scene with the picture. There were a lot of moving mummy in the story, but there are not in the real world. If you watched the moving mummy, can you fight like O’Connell who is the hero of the story? I can’t, because it is too scary for me, but I want to read hieroglyphic like Evelyn who is the heroine in this story. The title of this movie called Hamunaptra in Japan, and the passage was translated ‘the die is just beginning’. And there was the last sentence ‘ Maybe this wasn’t end. Maybe it was the beginning.’ in this book. This ending made me excited.

My favorite drink

Hello. This is my typing homework, and the topic is my favorite drink. People can’t live without something drink, so we drink something every day. What drink do you like?

My favorite drink is orange juice, but I can’t eat real orange, because I don’t like fruits. I don’t like their feelings in my mouth, but I like the taste, so I often drink fruits juice. There are orange and apple juice wherever I go like restaurants, theaters, and bakery, so I can drink whenever I want. That is very good. I love orange juice, but I often drink cocoa or corn soup in the winter, because I am sensitive to the cold, so I want to drink them better than orange juice. I can’t drink coffee, because I am not good at bitter taste. I don’t know what is the good point of coffee　now. However, I want to be a woman who can drink coffee black, because such woman looks cool. It is about time to change that my favorite drink orange juice to corn soup.

BR2-9 Jumanji

“Alan ran across the room and threw his arms around his father. ‘Dad! Dad!’ he said happily. ‘I’m sorry.’ ” (p.33)

This passage is in my favorite scene which Alan and Sarah came back to 1969 again, and Alan could say sorry to his father finally. I was always sad to watch the scene which Alan’s father, Sam Parrish had gone and he sacrificed all his money for searching Alan. I was moved, because they had a quarrel when they met the last time, but Sam never gave up to finding his son. I was really glad to watching the scene which they could meet again, and moreover I was glad to saving Judy and Peter’s parents’ life. I think that the game has started in 1969 for saving their life and protecting Judy and Peter’s happiness. Also, I love the last scene which we can’t see the movie, because the scene was not in. Alan and Sarah gave Christmas presents to Judy and Peter, and it was a shoes which named Jumanjis. They didn’t remember about the game and Alan and Sarah, but Alan and Sarah looked them with very happily smile. If I didn’t read the book, I can’t know the last scene, so I was happy.

However, I don’t want to see the aliens which they don’t like human, but I want to know about their lives and their planets.

Spanish meeting

Good morning, everyone. It’s cold this morning, isn’t it? I want to write about my holiday.

I went to Mexican restaurant with my friends of Spanish class last Saturday. That was very fun, because I could become friends who I have never told with, so I was really glad. Also, the Mexican foods were taste very good. They were hot, and I like hot foods. Eriko who is my friend of Eibei and she also takes Spanish class doesn’t like onion, but there were a lot of onions in the all Mexican foods, so she tried to take off the onions. She looked so busy.

  We presented to Mr. Okamura who is our Spanish teacher, because his birthday is November 18th, so we wanted to celebrate his birthday. We brought a birthday cake, and a chocolate plate which was written that “¡Feliz cumpleaños! Senior Okamura” was on the cake. Also, we wrote a message which was to Mr. Okamura each, and the message put on a square piece of high-quality paperboard for telling our feelings. He looked glad, so we were really glad to seeing the smile. He became 59 years old, and we want to celebrate his 60 years old birthday, too.

After we enjoyed the time when ate and drank at the restaurant, we went to karaoke or a bar. Senior year’s students went to a bar to drink, and I went to karaoke with Eriko, Sahoko, Yusei, George and Junpei. I am not good at singing, so I didn’t sing any song, but I really enjoyed the time, because they has good voice and they were very good at singing. I want to be good at singing, but I like listening the singing which someone’s. It was not long time we spend at the karaoke, because we had to back home by train, but it was really good time to me.

I took some picture when we were the restaurant, but my sister has my digital camera now, so I will put on the pictures to this blog someday.

Of course, summer and winter have many good points, and I think that we who live in Japan who very lucky, because Japan has beautiful four seasons. Each season has good points and beautiful view like spring’s sakura, summer’s green, autumn’s colored leaves, winter’s snow. I feel that 1 year has come around soon. I like autumn, because my birthday is November. I am glad to come my birthday now, but if I will 25 years old, I will sad, because I am older than now. Japanese did anything events in the year, but we are not Christian. I think that it common season and food. It means the food has good season to eat in my mind like ice cream is good in summer, a dish cooked in a pot at the table is great in winter .

That’s all today. Thank you for reading : )!!

MR-3 Twilight

Hello, everyone. This is my movie review, and the movie is Twilight. Have you watched the movie?
I like it very much, so if you had time, please watch it.

I am going to write about Twilight which is a love story of a girl and a vampire. The movie was based Twilight which was written by Stephenie Meyer, and I have read the book once. I was surprised that the director, Catherine Hardwicke, was a woman, because I didn’t hear that the director was a woman. She made a great movie which had beautiful views. I like watching the scenes a which included nature.

 The main characters were human a and vampires. Bella Swan moved in Forks which was a setting of the story, because her mother remarried and Bella wanted to live with her father so her mother could be with her new husband. I thought that Bella was a good girl, because she chose that way for her mother not for her. Edward Cullen, who is a vampire, and over 100 years old, fell in love with her. The members of Cullen family had very white skin, and they were so beautiful. My favorite character in this movie is Alice Cullen who is Edward’s sister. I like her, because she kind to Bella and she wanted to be Bella’s friend. I thought that vampires drink human’s blood, so they think human is just a meal. However, all of the Cullens are so kind. It was not good for people who watched this movie to feel scared. When I finished watching, I had believed a little that there are vampires in this world.

My favorite scene is when a car on the verge of crushing Bella, and Edward rescued her. I breathed a sigh of relief when I saw that she was saved. I think that accidents like this one are not rare, and if that accident happened in my school, I will be really sad. Charlie, who is her father, didn’t forgive Tyler Crowley, who was driving the car, and I could understand Charlie’s feeling. It’s a different point from Japan to come to school by car like they do in an American high school. I think that America is very large, so the students maybe take a long time to come to school. I like watching movies where I could know about the school life of a foreign country not only this one, because I like to compare the school life in Japan with other countries. I enjoyed this movie, so I want to watch this series.

That’s all today. Thank you for reading : )

BR2-7 Alice in Wonderland

“Who’s afraid of you? I’m not. You’re only cards!” (p.35)

 This story is one of the most famous stories in the world. Everyone have known about a white rabbit which often called Mary Ann, Cheshire Cat, Mad Hatter who always held the tea party with his friends and the Queen of Hearts. She wants to say anything and everything, “ Cut off the head!!” I have some admirations for the world of dreaming, but I don’t want to go to Alice’s dreaming, because it is too scary for me. However, I want to eat a cake which says EAT ME. I thought that it was different little means I have known the story, but when I finished reading in English, I felt something different. It was good for me to read books in English, and I think if I knew the story before I read in English, I can enjoy my reading in English.

My favorite elementary school memory

Hello, everyone. This is my typing homework, and the topic is My favorite elementary school memory. What kind of children are you? I want to know your story.

My elementary school is closed when my younger sister graduated the school, because students of the school were being down. So I lost my old school from then. My elementary school has a lot of green and filled of children’s voices which like fun when I was elementary school student. Our school had animals which some rabbits and tropical fish and hens, and I took care of them. They were very cute, so they were loved by around people who were teachers and students. The rabbits which I gave them from my father’s friend dig many holes around their house, and I often stumble over them. I really like the time which I played with them. I am not good at playing sports, so I played in the room, but I often went to the rabbits’ house.

BR2-6 Rapunzel

“Rapunzel, Rapunzel, let down your hair.” (p.23)

Most people have heard this name at least one time, because the story, Rapunzel is famous and became the movie by Disney. Rapunzel means lettuce in Grammar. Mr. Rose who is the father of Rapunzel stole a rapunzel which was a vegetable from a witch’s garden for his wife who is Rapunzel’s mother. The witch who is ugly and ill-natured forgave him, but she demand to give the baby who will be Rapunzel as soon as she is born. I love the last scene in this book. Rapunzel has married Prince Hans, and they have three children which are named Pumpkin, Lettuce and Sprout. I think that it’s nice name, because they will know wherever they go by their name.

I watched the movie which was made by Disney last week, and that was fun. I like it, so I want to watch you!

Happy Halloween

Hello, everyone. Takumasai holds tomorrow, so everyone maybe busy for ready, but I’m not going to take part in the festival, because I don’t belong to any clubs. Also, I will get holiday for 5 days if I don’t take part in that. I will enjoy my holidays, so I want to finish my assignments as soon as possible. I am going to write about Halloween party which held last Friday at school. Today is really the day, but we have already held the Halloween party. Have you done something for Halloween? already or yet? I want to know what did you do today.

I was surprised at the scene which everyone disguised for the party. Each of them chose the costume, so there were a lot of types which characters. There were a devil, three Gods of Greek mythology, a witch, a shop assistant of Doutor Coffee, a black cat, a Dracula and a fairy. Eriko was a witch, and she was so cute. Yukino disguised as a black cat, and I have thought that she looked good the costume before I saw her. There were many people who were some cute, interesting, scary, great, not so good. However, everyone looked fun and enjoy the time. I went to there with Rina and Nana, but we didn’t any disguise. A cute fairy came to us, and he borrowed his hats for disguising at the party to us. The fairy was Mr. Waterman, and he came to the party with his wife. I enjoyed the party, but I thought that if I could take part in the party with all of my favorite friends, we could enjoy more. I want to hold any party with my friends, and I want to make more memory of my school life.

MR-2 Drumline

I have not watched drum line until I watched this movie, because there are no famous marching bands with a drumline in Japan. Drumline means marching band, I think. When I watched this movie at the first time, I was really excited, because the beat was so fast. I couldn’t believe that the beats were made by the people who were in the movie.

My favorite scene is when Devon Miles, who is the most important drummer in this movie, graduated from his high school. When he changed the beat, people looked like they were having fun. I thought that this movie must be interesting for me, because the first scene made me excited. The most shocking thing was Devon couldn’t read music. I can’t play any musical instruments, so I thought that it’s OK, because he has great rhythm. However, the marching band must be in one united body, and it was hard to teach him how to read the score, because everyone needs more effort for themselves. I felt that if he was not too self-conscious but kind to everyone, people who loved him would teach him that. I think that he was intoxicated with his talent, and that was his only fault. I think that is normal and just human. Everyone, including heroes in history, have some faults, so we want to be perfect.

On the other hand, Sean who was Devon's percussion leader, doesn’t miss his efforts for drum line, so he was respected people who are members. However, he was not perfect, too. He was jealous of Devon’s talent, and wanted him to go away. This movie showed us such a dark side of people, but when we finished watching we can be refreshed. That is a great point of this movie, and I was really moved. The last scene when Devon took part in the band finally and they won was so exciting, and I cheered for them without realizing it. I want to feel the band with my eyes and ears. If the band like drum line are in Japan, it will be great cheering for members of sports.

My favorite music

Hello, everyone. This is my typing homework, and the topic is My favorite music. I think that everyone like music, so we spend every day with music.

My favorite singer is JUJU who is woman singer, because she has clear voice, so her songs are very beautiful. I like listening to her song, so I have a lot of her song in my cell phone, and I have listened to her song when I have free times. I like listening to soundtracks of movies and dramas, because I can recall scenes which I have watched when I hear the music. I really respect for people who make the soundtracks, because I can’t make it never and there are not same music of movies and dramas, so the people make it from the beginning. That’s great. I am always surprised at only one music in the movie makes us fun, scary, excited, sad, moved, and happy. I think that the music is one of the magic.

BR2-5 Rip Van Winkle andTHe Legend of Sleepy Hollow

“He also tells travelers about his twenty- year- long sleep. Some people believe him but some don’t.” (p.33) ― Rip Van Winkle
“there is a silent valley called Sleepy Hollow. It is the quietest place in the world.” (p.43) ― The Legend of Sleepy Hollow

This book has two different story, and I read both of them, so I am going to write two book review at once. First, I finished reading Rip Van Winkle. I have heard that story’s name, but I have not read ever. I thought that this is like Urashima Taro. I don’t know which was first. However, I like Rip Van Winkle better than Urashima Taro, because Urashima Taro was end when he came back to real world. The other hand, Rip Van Winkle was written after he came back, and the ending looked so happy, so I like this better than that. I have known Washington Irving who is one of the most famous writers in the world, and I have watched the movie which is The Legend of Sleepy Hollow. It was little scary for me, but very interesting one, and that is his famous work. Johnny Depp was in the movie as the main character of it, and I have watched it many times include in a class of history of American literature. I didn’t know who is bad and who will survive until the last scene, so I was excited.
