Funny dance




I was a member of dance club when I was a high school student. I saw this TV program yesterday. I thought their dance is very funny!!! I also think it is not difficult, so I want to try to remember and dance their funny dance. When I belonged to dance club, I usually danced hip-hop dance. We choreographed our dance. It  was very fun, but recently I don't dance at all. I want to dance!
I will watch it again and again and master this dance!! If I can be good at dancing it, I want to show it to my friends!

BR01-15 The gift of the magi and other stories

I think some people know the story of The gift of the magi. This is story about a couple who are poor. They love each other. On Christmas day, they bought presents exchange for their important things. It is good story, but  also sad story. This book has other 3 stories. They are very short stories, so you can read them only for 10 minutes. I think the end of each story is interesting. It is good end also bad end. I feel that irony is in this book. I don't know what for the irony. However, it is good to read. I want everyone to read this book.

final exams and reports

I have already finished taking some exams. I have also submitted some report. However, I have more exams and reports than I had done in this semester. I have to study for exams, but I also write and finish some reports by deadline. I sometimes confuse which things I should do first. I think I should make a plan to study for exam and to finish reports!

I will write a report about International low in Saturday morning tomorrow. In the afternoon I will write a report about a famous speech of Martin Luther King Jr.- I have a dream -. I will study one of the Classic Japanese books for the exam on Sunday. I will also summarize which I learned from the International society and Japan class. After that I will read a book for book review! Oh! I have forgotten! I have to go to college tomorrow morning because of class which was missed before.

I have a lot of things to do...but, I believe I can be over them!

7 11 × Kanjyani∞

From July 7, Kanjyani8's goods were released in Seven eleven which is a famous convenience store. Kanjyani8's movie will be released on Jury 28 and Seven eleven appears in the movie. That's why they decided to  make goods and sold them at the store. I went there and bought some goods. I was happy, but some of goods had already sold out! I was very surprised it and I thought that Kanjyani8 is very popular now. I am happt to know that, but on the other hand, I feel a little sad. I bought a file and a note, so I want to use them in Canada!

American literature

I will take American literature exam today. I learned famous writer and style of American literature in 19 century. At first, there was no original novel which was written by American in America, so they imported European novels especially from Britain and read them. After that, they tried imitate British literature. Moreover, it was regarded bad thing to read novels in America in 19 century because of religion "Puritanism". That's why novels were not popular about 200 years ago in America. However, American novels became popular after Gothic novels came to America. After independence revolution occurred,  Darwinism thinking became popular and realism element was used in novels. It was all things I learned this semester. I will do my best for final today.

Vacation plans

I have a lot of plan to do this summer vacation. First, I have to prepare for studying abroad, so I need something to use while I stay there like cloths and travel goods. That's why I will go shopping. Second, I will get together with my relatives because of the Bon festival. I am looking forward to seeing them. Third, I want to reunion with my old friends before I go to Canada. I will have contact to them, and get together. My friends and I will talk. And I am going to go to Kikuchi Hakuryu festival with exchange students in August. I think it is last time to have a good time with them, so I want to enjoy it! I think I should study English every day in my Vacation, and it is my plan that I am going to study English at least 3hours in a day. I will start my abroad life from the end of August, so half of my vacation is not vacation for me. I will try to do my best, and I will improve my English ability. I forgot to write about one more my plan. I am going to be taken picture for coming of age before I leave. I need to show it to my grandparents because I can't attend the celebration. I also want to bring the picture to Canada, and show it for students who are not Japanese. I am looking forward to it too.

BR01 13-Hucleberry Finn

Last time, I read The adventures of Tom Sawyer and this time I read Huckleberry Finn!! It is right to read Tom Sawyer before I read Huck's story because this story is about Huck's life after Tom and Huck got a lot of money in Tom Sawyer's story. This story is also very interesting and exciting. The good point of this book is that everything is written from Huck's view. I think it is effective of making the story more realistic. This style also makes me understood Huck's feeling easily. I think in this book, you can learn American history about slavery a little. It is also advantage of reading it. I like Huck's story better than Tom's story. However, I like both character, they seem to be bad boys at first, but they have kindness. I also like their friendship, they are very good friend. I want everyone to read this book especially who are taking American literature class.

My opinion

I think Japan should have society which is good to live for women. Now it is hard for women to work, rising up their children in Japan. I know that actuary it is not so hard. However, I heard that the best time to birth child is when women are during 18 to 25 years old. I think it is hard for women because, they usually graduate college at 23 years old. Then they start to work, and they need time, at least 2 years to be accustomed to their new job and cirucumstance. In addition to that, now in Japan has recession so there is no guarantee to get job soon after graduate. That's why almost women miss the time to get pregnant during the best time. I also think some of Japanese companies don't give chance to have child-care leave. It also makes it difficult for woman to have children.
It is called age birth to bear child over 30 years old, and there is more risk to have miscarriage. In Japan, the average age of  giving birth first child is 29.5 and it is almost 30!
We may put up with this situation because women have opportunity to have a job. Before WWⅡ it was common that women stay at home and take care their child and  do housework, while men should go out to earn money (work) in Japan. After Japan confirmed the low about sexual equality, women have less time to stay at home and take care their child.
For these reasons, decreasing child is developing. However, we should solve this problem. Japan should introduce new system to have children easily to stop decreasing children, and companies should give more chance to have parental leave.

blogging

I think blogging is good way to practice typing. I wrote a lot of things on my blog. At first, I thought that blogging was troublesome work because I couldn't keep doing something for a long time. What’s more, when I heard that I must write at least 10000 words, I felt it was hard. However, now I posted about 50 articles and I have written about 9000 words on my blog now!! I like blogging now because I can share something interesting topics with other people. I found some funny movies. I want people to watch it. I posted my favorite things, so I want people to know it. I think it is good way to get friends through  blogging.

BR01 12- The Adventures of Tom Sawyer

I decided to read it because I want to read Huckleberry Finn. I take English literature class in this semester and I will learn about it in the class. I read the first page of Huckleberry Finn; it says that reader should read the adventures of Tom Sawyer before read this story. I read the story of Tom Sawyer, and it was excitement! I think Tom Sawyer is clever boy, and he is challenger! He has experienced a lot, but sometimes he is in danger! In this book, he saw a murder in grave. It triggered to change his life! I think everyone can enjoy reading this story because it is describing not only adventures but also romance and friendship! It is so interesting that I can finish reading it soon. That's why I recommend you to read this book. By the way, I found that Huckleberry Finn is his friend, and he is also unique character, so I am interested in Huckleberry Finn more than before I read Tom Sawyer. I am looking forward to learn it!!

YKI



Are you interested in YKI? YKI means youkai that is said in English ghost!! I got a article about that Fukuoka city Museum is going to hold  Yokai exhibition in this summer. There are a lot of pictures written in Edo period. I think it will give visitor not only horrible but also humor. One of the events held in the museum is the general election of YKI48! We can join the election. We are voter! People can choose their favorite yokai from lists and vote! It sounds interesting. As you know from this explanation, it follows the event which was held by famous idol group AKB48.
←These pictures are one of parts of candidates! Every yokai has their own catchphrase. It makes me fun!! It is funny!! I want to go the museum this summer!!

Parfait♪

I got a parfait which I long for to eat!!!!! It tasted Matcha! I was happy because I like Matcha parfait. I knew a new original premium sweet was released at Seven Eleven, so I bought it. It looked so delicious isn't it?
I ate it yesterday. Of course, it was good, but it was not more delicious than I have expected. It is a little sweater for me...
In this summer I want to eat a lot of parfaits and find my favorite one!!

My keitai +Smartphone

I introduce my cellphone. I bought it 5 years ago. When I saw it for the first time, I liked the shape. That's why I decided to buy it. I like my cellphone. I don't know why I like it but I think I have been using it for 5 years, so I like it. The good point of my cellphone is button. I like my cell phone's button. It is comfortable to push it. The bad point of my cellphone is that it can't take a photo clearly. If I could change a part of my cellphone’s functions, I would change camera function. I would not like to change my cellphone and buy smartphone immediately.


Honestly, I don't know Smartphone is good or bad. Sometimes, I think it is good because I can use Internet easily as I use it by computer. It is convenient for me especially when I use Gmail. I can check information such as assignment anytime anywhere! I also think it is good point to be able to call someone with no charge even they use other company's cellphone through using Apps. On the other hands I think sometimes it is bad. I heard that Smartphone can be attacked by virus easily from news. I know that people can get a lot of Apps as a function of Smartphone. However, I think it is wasting time to use Apps for a long time. 


Only one thing I can say is that I am going to keep using my cellphone until August.

BR01 11-Hamlet

As you know Hamlet is one of the most famous novels of all novels written by Willam Shakespare. Old English is used in his novels, so it is hard for me to read original version novels. However, this book I bought from library was revised to be able to read easily. A professor told student that students who major English should know the story about Hamlet because it is common to read it in America and England. That's why I tried it! It was good to think about revenging. If your important person was killed by someone, would you have revenge to him or her? Is it good choice to everyone surrounding you? I think this book has messages like that. Please read it and get the message from it.

Using computer

When I am using computer, I always use it for homework. I have a lot of homework every day, and I need to submit report. That's way I almost used Word software. It is very useful and I think it takes shorter time than I write down on paper with my hands. Sometimes, I don't know how to use some function of Word and Excel. Excel is more difficult for me than using Word. However, I want to take OMS during college life. I also use computer to watch movie. I like you tube. It has a lot of interesting movies. I can listen to trendy music through the site. It is convenient. However, I know using computer is sometimes difficult, and there are risks. I often hear that people who buys something at online-shop. It is very convenience; however I am afraid of purchasing something by using online because I need to send my personal information including credit card number. If I buy something using net, there is no agent. That's why I can't get enough information. However, I found it safe to buy something from major net shopping sites like Amazon. I bought Kanjyani8's CD from Amazon. It was safe. I think computer is becoming necessary things for everyone in these days, so I want to master using computer!

essay5

Hello! I am 40 years old now, and I will tell about my life in the past 20 years. 20 years ago, I went to Canada to study English. The first semester I joined a language school and studied English harder than ever I had ever studied it. The second semester I entered a University and learn with English. I got a lot of friends there and I had great experiences in Canada.

After I came back to Japan, I got enough credits and graduated from KGU. After that I was adopted by a company which executes concerts. I worked hard every day, and the time came one day. I had been dreaming that I would be in charge of making Kanjyani8’s concert. It was the time when I was 27 years old, I was chosen as the chief producer of Kanjyani8’s concert. I was very happy because I was a fan of them. The concert was successful!!! I was proud of it!

3 years later, I went to Hollywood and I worked as a member of a group making fantasy films. It was very exciting, but also it made me so tired. However, I didn’t care about being tired when I thought that I could give an impression to people thorough movies, especially for children. While I stayed in Hollywood, I had very exciting experiences. I appeared in a film as a role of Japanese woman who gives a hint to a boy. It was not a major role, but it was a role of an important person.

When I was 35 years old, I came back to Japan and I became a chief of a firm which executes events. In the same year, I married a man whom I loved before. My husband and I met when we are junior high school students. We had a relationship with each other while we were teenagers around 16 to 18. We broke up after we entered each University. We didn’t contact each other at all. However, we had a class reunion 10 years ago and we saw each other again. After that we decided to start a relationship again. However, before I go to Hollywood, we stopped to get along with each other and promised to get married if our mind didn’t change until the time when I came back to Japan. We kept thinking each other while I spend time in Hollywood. That’s why we married.

Now we have 3 children. I gave birth to twins 4 years ago. We were very surprised, but very glad. Two years later, a third boy was born. Now I restarted to work as a chief of concert producer. Next year our company is planning to have a big concert event! I am very looking forward to it. I will be busy from that next 2 months or 3 months later. I am going to go to a zoo next month with my family. I want to enjoy this precious time.

BR01 10-The Phantom of the Opera

It is one of the most famous stories in all over the world. Some of you have heard about the stories at least once. It was first time for me to know about this story. It was very interesting. It is kind of horror story, but also it contains love story. I think the story is summed up in this book., so it is easy to read it. I am interested in about this story and I want to know more detail after I finished reading it! I think everyone can enjoy this book not only for a person who faces it for the first time, but also for a person who have heard once. This book has CD. If you read it listening to this CD, you can imagine the situations more clearly! I recommend you to read it!
