About Picture 2!

Hi, I will talk about picture 2.

This picture was maybe taken in Asia. I can’t guess in which country took this one. This scene is the figure that the bride being helped from her suicide death by public people. I think she jumped from a rooftop of the building and caught by people there were, so she was saved.

Why she is putting on the wedding dress? I guess the answer is that she was very shocked by her partner in wedding party and directly she jumped from the building. I think her partner loved another woman and the woman in this picture noticed on the day wedding party, so her shock was very big and terrible. Therefore, she decided to jump and suicide. Then, people saw that scene, so people tried to catch her body and they could save her life. Many people tried to save her life.

This picture show me such a great and kindly feeling of human.

Something New

Hi, "Something New" is today’s topic, so I looked for what something new has happened, and I found. I belong to one student association and one volleyball circle. What I found something new was noticed in their activity. I will talk about it.

              The something new that  I found is to control people of our group by ourselves is very difficult. In both activities, there were generational shifts from 3^rd year student to us, 2^nd year or 1^st year students. In the volleyball circle, we had 4 or 5 practices per one month before the retiring of 3^rd year students, but now, we could not have enough practices because of they are busy. I am also busy so I could not join the practices. I guess the circle leader is angry now because of only few people have come to our practices. His sentences in our mailing list from him let us know his anger. I am little afraid of him.

Such a student circle or a student organization is operated by us, students. Not a teacher or a coach. Keeping organization’s relations and activities are very difficult. I found it. I have to go to the volleyball activities, as soon as I can…. But I am afraid of him….

Travel

I'll write about my impressive event in Summer Vacation, traveling Singapore!

I went to Singapore in August, 22th-25th. In the Airplane, there were some Cabin Attendants, and I thought they put on strange color’s dresses purple or brown. I thought this is first cultural difference which I found in this travel between Japan and Singapore. In Japan, public people can’t ware such a mysterious color. When I arrived at Singapore and rode on train, it was about 5:00 am, I saw evidently strange people in that train, for example an old man who put on high-heel sandals which should be worn by ladies. I asked to my friend and he told me about that, “People wearing strange closes in this train now is poor workers. They begin working this time (very early morning) which has low paid, so they do not have enough money to buy closes. Now, Singapore’s economy is growing up, but in the fact there are distinctive gaps between rich and poor workers.” The town and roads were beautiful. That beautiful town is made and maintained by poor and cheap workers.

In the travel, we can get several kinds of information something interesting or positive, and something negative, so traveling let us take larger horizons.

I want to go to France next time or someday. I think the country had many interesting characteristics. They must make my horizons larger. I’m looking forward to the travel!!

Culture

I will talk about what part of Japan’s culture I like, and what foreign cultural events I interested in.

I like Japanese Natsumatsuri. It is a traditional summer festival of Japan, most of all of that is held in summer vacation, nearby or in shrines or other large spaces. In the period of that festival there are lots of food stands and something to playing. I think the main event of that festival is fireworks. It is very beautiful. I like Natsumaturi, because of the feeling. When I am walking into during the stands, all of people look fun and play something. They make me feel fun.

In the other country, I have impression to Highland Games, in Scotland and other countries. The players wearing Scotland’s ethnic costumes play games of caver toss or weight throw and so on. The picture shows you a man playing a caver toss. I want to go to that festival and take part at once.

Autumn

It is almost end of autumn. Most people thought “What have I done this autumn?”

In this autumn, I was very busy. I had schools, part time job, lots of home works, activities of circle and club, and I enjoyed playing with my friends.

In the school festival, I helped booth of my club. After that, I had a party all night, it was very enjoyable!

From now, this is the turn of studying. I had had playing too many. I have some presentation, reports and studying for studying abroad.

I will have many enjoyable events in the winter and spring vacation, for example I and some friends probably started to plan of traveling to India or other place. I’m looking for them!

Have a nice winter and spring vacation, everyone!

Keeping in touch by SNSs

Today, I‘ll talk about keeping in touch by SNSs. How to keep in touch have changed and have various types and ways. Even if I and other person have far distance, today’s Internet connects us in a moment, for example, e-mails, blogs, and SNS, and so on. Today’s Japanese young people almost have accounts in facebook, Twitter, mixi.

How SNSs, such us facebook or mixi connect people? First, SNSs let people know birthdays of friends. Thanks of the SNSs, people know the birthdays of friends, so I think no people aren’t celebrated about own birthday by his or her friends. Second, if I become friends with people in SNSs, I can see all the conversation talked by my friend and other friend and those are recorded on SNSs. People can join easily these conversations.

People can get along with friends easily on internet, no matter how they don’t see faces each others. This is the noticeable difference from traditional ways of keeping in touch.

marriage

Hi, today I’ll talk about the life style after marriage which I think.

If I can get partner, I will ask her to take care my house and my room. I can’t keep cleanly my room now, and maybe I cannot take care my house and my room in the future too.

In addition, I often lost my confidence. It is caused by some bad thing, for example, mistake in my work, knowing limit of my skill, and so on. I want to be encouraged by my partner.

Therefore, if I can get my partner, I want her to be smart, and have a large heart.

This is my view of marriage. Thank you for reading.

a scary experience

Hello, I’ll tell you about my terror. When I notice or image the scary thing such as ghosts, insects, and animals, I harden like a stone at that time.

I hate insects. Especially, I hate cockroach.

I’m working part time job in a supermarket and there are many of them….

The fact makes me tired and nervous. I find sometimes the insect walking on the floor. Last day, the supermarket had a big cleanliness and I joined that work. In the backyard of the store, I and my co-worker try to move a big display cabinet that wasn’t used long time. Then, we lift and move short distance, … and they were here. Some(6~7) of them were on the wall. ….. I don’t refer more. Of course, I wanted to run away, but my body had not moved at that some seconds, but I could run away and take a distance. I was relieved….

I hate the supermarket.

I’m sorry. Maybe my passage made you feel bad. However, this is task of Mr. Holthouse, writing a scary experience, so please forgive me….

My Favorite Season

My favorite season is summer!

There are 3 reasons, light clothes, drinking juice is better, and the summer vacation!

In summer, we put on light cloth. I like light cloth. Heavy cloth makes me tired.

And I think drinking juice is special and delicious in summer!!

In addition, summer has SUMMER VACATION!! I really look forward to life in summer vacation! For example, travel and sightseeing, playing in sea or mountain, and watching sport games. They make me very fun!

This is end of today’s blog, thank you for reading.

Summer Vacation

Hi, today, I'll write introduction about my impressive event in Summer Vacation, the sightseeing in Singapore!

I and my friend went to Singapore in August, on 22th-25th. In the 22th's night, We left from Kansai Airport. In the Airplane, there were some Cabin Attendants, who put on strange color’s dresses, purple or brown. I thought this is first difference which I found in this travel between Japan and Singapore.

After we arrived at the airport, we rode train in Singapore that name is MRT. This train’s system is very simple and easy understanding. It has North South Line, East West Line, North East Line and Circle Line, and their lines are identified with simple colors, red, green, purple and yellow, so even if the visitor who comes Singapore first time can understand and use MRT perfectly. I think this system is better than the one in Japan. The system in Japan is not visualized and too difficult for visitors.

I experienced lots of other things more impressive than the MRT’s system, but this is the end of today’s blog. I want to write more memories in Singapore next or different chance.

Thank you for your reading.

Summer Vacation

I want to enjoy summer vacation!!!!

About Poster Presentation

          Last day, I appreciate for Mr. Holthouse, giving me the chance to have presentation. I had a very good time. My presentation's theme was about Sushi. I was little nervous but I think I could do my best. The most difficult point of presentation is not preparing drafts or painting poster, I think talking is the most difficult. Japanese usually said by foreigners, not good at talking, I am the good example of the idea! www  I want to be fluency at talking!

          I think the presentation shown by Mr. Okamoto was enjoyable. He talked about his own hometown, Shiga. He said in presentation at first, “A lot of people in Kansai must look down my hometown, Shiga!” Of course I don’t think so, but I laughed at that time. “It’s because they said about only Lake Biwa, when they talked about Shiga.” He has an interesting way of thinking! And his presentation was intellectual about Shiga. I like his one.

          I had nice time, and I try to be good at not only speaking English but also talking at presentation.

         Thank you for reading my blog until now.

About The Differences of Opinion

      Hello, there are hot days and how do you spend these days? I have already turned on the air conditioner in my room.

      Today's thema is diffrences of opinion between male and female. I've heard one phrase which is "Male and female have the biggest difference of culture." These words means understanding about each others, men and women is very very difficult. I think so too.  Differnces of opinion between male and female are certainly exist.

      In the fact, I don't know about what women think. I will not be able to understand about women. I think it's enough to enjoy my life. If I were able to understand about what women think, the life would not be enjoyable. We should confuse and take care about each others.

Recent Life

Good morninig, Recently, it has been growing hot. The summer is coming closer to us and I look forward to the exciting season. Today, I'll talk about my recent days.

The school of international syudies make me tired. We have a lot of homeworks, for example, reports and preparering for tsets in our every class. I have never had such as many study works. However, the volume of these study works is fewer as compared to other college in foreign counry. I want to work in abroad in the future, so I should study harder and harder.

Now, I have a lot of kindly and funny friends. I haven't known that I would be able to make a lot of friends like now. I'm very enjoyable every college days.
Thank you for reading today, have a nice weekend!

(Story 3) My First Sailing Trip Ever

Have you ever sailed before? I have, and you won't believe what happened. Well I guess I should start at the beginning, when Uncle Johnny first arrived at our door. We had heard a lot about Uncle Johnny from both Mom and Dad, but we had never met him. He was always away, having adventures somewhere.

It seemed amazing that all of those things could happen to just one man. I mean, how many people do you know that have been chased by lions in the African jungles, lived with the Eskimos at the North Pole, and flown a hot air balloon across the Atlantic?
We loved all the stories, and we were delighted when he actually came to our house.

The first words he said were "Let's go sailing!" My mom and dad tried to get out of going, but Uncle Johnny had an answer for every excuse they came up with. Within an hour we were all packed into the car and driving towards the marina, where his yacht was. As you can imagine, what started out as a simple sailing trip ended up as a great adventure. Let me tell you all about it....

We arrived at the marina, where his yacht was, and began the sailing with my uncle.  The sea was filled with a lot of hopes. Johnny said,"Let's enjoy wonderful adventures from now!!" We enjoyed our sailing, laughing and talking about attractive stories of  Johnny's adventure. 

A few weeks later, the weather was gradually getting hard. Suddenly, big waves attacked our yacht and broke it. We were in the sea. We hold our hands strongly to keep us uniting. Johnny said loudly,"There is an island over there! We should swim!"  Fortunately, all of us could arrive at the island.

For a few days, we looked for something to eat and a cave to sleep. However, there were aborigines, and they noticed us. They began to attack to us with spears!!!!!!!! It was so terrible. We thought they would kill and eat us!! We ran  away as hard as possible! At that time, someone helped us. Aborigines ran away, and we were safe!! Uncle Johnny said,"Who are you?" One of the people answerd,"We are pirates. The stron
gest pirates! By the way, where are you from??" We said,"We are from Ejiri town in England." The captain said,"You are from Ejiri town?? Really?? I'm from Ejiri town too!! You are so tired. We help you go back home!" We said,"Thank you very much. We appreciate you!" We could get home all right. This is miracle story!!

About My Family and Neighborhoods

       I have some messages to my family, Father, Mother the younger brother and my neighbors what I have never said.
       At first, my father, I want to cheer for his hard work for us. He is living alone in Chiba for his working solo assignment. When he come back to our house which I live in, he say every time,"I don't want to go to Chiba…, I'm feeling lonely…." He looks very downhearted before he backs to Chiba. I want to say, "You are not alone and we remember you sometimes. I know I can go to KG thanks of your hard working."
       Second, my mother, I really appreciate for her. She work in our house every day. I know it's really hardworking. I will be taken care at least some years. I'll return something to her in the future.
       Third, my younger brother. My brother started studying for college entrance exam. He hopes to enter KG University. I had thought about him that he can't say own opinions still I heard his desire about his own route of university. However, he could think and say about himself. I'm very glad!! I decided to support him for succeeding the exam!
       Lastly, my neighbors, they are kindheartedly. Sometimes I meet one of neighborhoods, he or she delights my growing and cheers me every time. I feel really relieved that. What a friendly and kindly neighborhoods!
       The environments around me is very comfortable and I'm been cheerful to meet them, so I'll treat the relations importantly. It is necessary to treat relations with people around me importantly for sending comfortable life. 

What I think about my ideal home

      I think there are some points for my ideal home to live comfortable. Today, I'll  tell you about what I hope to my house, those are the location, neighborhoods and an environment.

      First, I want to live in bright and beautiful city like Amalfi. Do you know Amalfi? One Japanese movie taken in that city. The city is next to Mediterranean Sea in Italy and has a lot of white and traditional buildings. The view is just beautiful and beautiful. If I can live this city, I must keep looking the view from my house's window all day. This is my ideal location so I don't know where I will live in future...
      Next, The good relation and making friendship with other people living near from my house make me happy and comfortable to live. In addition, I can be helped by neighbor friends when some troubles happened.
      Finally,  I think this is the most important factor, an environment. In other words I want to say, "The town is peaceful?" No matter how the town is useful, for example, near from a station, if there are many criminals, we shouldn't live the town and move out as soon as possible. A safety is more necessary than any other factors.
      I want to live in a town that is beautiful like Amalfi, with friendly and kind neighbors and no criminals. I think it's too high quality to find and I don't know where it is, so I will keep looking for such as a great town for a while. This is my ideal home.

Recent days!

       Today, I will tell you about what I did impressive in some weeks .

       First, I began to work new part time job, it's in a supermarket. In that job, I was made practiced greetings for customers, for example, "Irasshaimase, arigatougozaimasu, kashikomarimashita etc..." with all of the member of the workers every day! It's like a company, so I feel gradually tired... But old-timers in this work place is very kind and excellent. I can continue this job for my graduation of the college.

       Second, I went to dinner with member of the English class 9 and had a great time!! There are many    amusing people in this class! I'm happy to belong to this class. However some people couldn't go with us, I hope to have a dinner with them next time!

       I'm enjoying campus life thanks for many nice friends and I will study hard for my ideal future. I'm happy to enter this college! Nice to meet you～!

My childwood memory

Do you have or had a pet now or in past? I have a dog since I was a child. Today, I'll tell you about the day my dog, Coco, had come to my house and how Coco have belonged to my family.

She was born on my grandfather's house and her mother was a stray dog before being

my grandpa's pet. So her mother wasn't able to be determine what kind of the dog so my dog Coco also can't be determine the breed.

The day, when she arrived my house, she traveled by airplane and she was into the cage. Suddenly, she had released what she ate! in the cage! I feel anxiety about her... but right away, the feeling was gone. She is so cute!

At that time, I had studied and studied to prepare for my entering examination of the KG junior high school. I had had a lot of frustration. Then, Coco, my pet, healing me from the anxiety and frustration. Thanks for her, my examination had succeeded! I think really appreciation for her.

Now, she is my family not only a pet. I think really happy to see her in my life!
