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.

Walking or...



Hello, everyone. How are you? It’s colder recently, so I can’t get up early. I want to sleep in warm bed, but I must not be late my classes, so I have prepared something which I want to get up like a pumpkin pudding or a cup of hot cocoa. Do you feel like me? If you had felt like me, I want to know how to get up.

My older sister has new hobby recently. It’s walking, and she bought new walking shoes to the hobby. It’s very good for health, so I said “It’s nice idea. Animo!” to her. She goes to anywhere by walking. I like to go out with my sisters, so I have walked with her. However, I can’t catch up with her, because she walks so fast, and she can walk so far. I was really surprised at her speed, and I thought that she is faster little by little, so I decided to go by my bicycle if I go out with my sister.

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

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.
