Food/ eating habits

I think I have good eating habits. I always eat vegetable meat or fish and rice. I always cook diner so I can consider about my health and what I need to eat. It is important for people to eat thinking about their health. If they don't consider about it and eat just only dishes which they like, they will get ill or over weight. My sister doesn't cook and she almost eats fast food or goes out for dinner, so she is fat now. I don't want be like her. I will keep my eating habits. I want to learn the way to make healthy dishes and I have to serve them for my sister to help her from gaining weight anymore.

My treasure


I will introduce three of my treasures. One is the picture which my old boyfriend gave me. When I was a junior high school student, I had a boyfriend who was good at drawing pictures. He could draw “Luffy”, who is a character of the famous manga, ONE PIECE, very well. He had confidence of drawing picture, so he attempted to sell his drawing picture. I thought he was stupid!! That’s why I stole it. Then, he told me that he would give me a better one. I was waiting for several days. The day came and he gave me a wonderful picture. He drew as many anime characters as he could. I was very happy because the day when he gave it to me was the anniversary of starting our relationship. He signed his name and the date on it. I still keep it. It is one of me treasure which reminds me a sweet memory.

 The next is also a picture, but I got it from my best friend in high school. It was called chigirie; the picture made by ripped paper. She gave it to me as a birthday present. It was made by hand. She ripped origami and just put them on a card. She also made small rose with origami. I thought she was dexterous. When I got it, I thought how hard the work was and that it might have taken a lot of time. My old teacher once told me that it was the best present takes long time thinking about the person whom you gave the present, not what you would give. I believe that she was thinking about me, and finally she came up with this present. I am very glad to have such a friend. I am sure that the picture is only one of its kind in the world. I will keep it forever.

The last are letters from my friends. When I was a junior high school student, I and my friends were crazy about writing letter each other. We were almost always writing about our romances or worries about something. When I read them, I remember those days and sometimes it makes me laugh and sometimes it tells me some important things. I think I can recall any of those times when I read those letters, even 60 years from now. I want to read them when I become an old woman and share them with my friends someday.

BR1 04-How to be an Alien

In this book, you can learn about British and the culture of it. It is written by a person who is not British. It is a little difficult to understand what this book want to say. However, when you understand what it means, you can find it interesting.. This book doesn't have story, this is like a manual book., so it tells me that how to behave in England and what British is thinking compared with Europe. I feel there is a little irony for British in this book, but it is just joke. You can read it relaxing. Don't be serious. I think you will want to try how to behave in England and  sure if it is true or not after you finish reading. If you are interested in England, you should read it! I also recommend other people to read it!

My family's computer.

I hate a computer, which is shared with my family. This computer I am using now is my family's computer. Exactly we bought this 5or6 years ago. That's why it is a little old, and the microsoft is also old type. We have to install new version of microsoft. However, we haven't yet. Moreover, we are thinking about buying new one. However, I am sure that I have to use this computer until we get new one. There is a problem. When I do my assignment, I usually use Word . When I do my homework in my house, I also use Word , but it is old version. That's why it is inconvenience for me. Microsoft Word  in college's computer is new version. When I use it in college and save my homework to USB, after that when I try to open the file in my home's computer, it doesn't work. It cannot switch the file from new version to old version. I hate it. Because of the problem, sometimes it took long time to finish my homework....... I must suggest my idea for my family, "We should new one immediately!!"

BR1 03-THE BLACK CAT And Other stories

Do you have a black cat? We sometimes hear that when you see black cat, you will be lucky man or even sometimes you will face to disgusting things. Which do you believe? This story is written about a man who has a black cat. The black cat brings him happiness or evil? I think nobody can expect the end of the story. This book has more 3 other stories. Other stories also lead you to strange and horror worlds. Each story is short, but it has good logical development. By the way, do you know the book's author, Edgar Allan Poe? He was one of the most famous novelists who had influenced the history of American literature. If you are taking American literature class, you should read this book.. If you like horror stories, I recommend you to read this. If you don't like horror stories, please try to read. You will find it interesting.
