BR 2-16: Fluffy And The Firefighters

The best way to fight fires is to keep them from happening in he first place! (p.37)

I chose this book because the illustlation is so cute, and I thought that it is easy for me to read it. May be, there are some books of this seriese, but I read only this book. Fluffy is a classroom guinea pig. I think Fluffy is too self-conscious, but he is a guinea pig who will listen to reason, too.

Tom and Mike that they appere in this book are firefighters. I think firefighters are very cool and bravery. I have never wanted to become a firefighter, but if I was a boy, I wanted to become a firefighter.

I arrived there at 2:00 p.m., Eriko and Hikari have already arrived. The remaining members began to gather, and we each chose the present for present exchange there and bought it.

After that, we went to Hanabata Public Hall. It is karaoke lounge. I have never been to there, so I was excited. There are many strange rooms in Hanabata Public Hall, but our room was common. The member of karaoke was Nana, Asuka, Rina, Manami, Ai, Mitsuki, Sahoko, Eriko, Hikari, Naomi and I. I have not been for a karaoke with people except Nana among the members, so I was very nervous when I sang. Everyone sang, and everyone was good!! We spent about 3 hours there.

After we left karaoke, we had time to dinner a little. So, we took purikura. A game center was crowded. It was worry whether all the members finished being in the purikura because we were large families of 11, but all the members entered somehow.

We went to the bar which we reserved when we left the game center because it was just right time. We went markJ. I went there for the first time. A lot of us ate and drank a lot and talked a lot. Manami ended a part-time job and joined halfway. In the middle stage, we presented it and changed it. I got the present which Rina bought, and Ai got the present which I bought. We ordered many dishes, so we overate myself and got hard. At past half past 9:00 p.m., we brought to a close. We said good-bye. I came home at 10:00 p.m. I was very excited, and I had very good time. Merry Christmas!

And he had a good cat to keep him company. (p.28)

This book is a kind of Mr. Putter and Tabby series. I think baking a cake is very difficult because it takes effort. I can't bake a cake without a cookbook.

I met Yuika on December 10th. It had been about three months since I met her last. I wanted to meet Yuika very much, but we had many things to do each other, so we couldn't meet for a long time. We met last Monday after school. I had classes until fifth period, so we met in downtown at about 6:30 p.m. We strolled downtown because I want to buy a new dray duffel coat.

We enjoyed eating and talking. Yuika is working at a snack bar and a shop of nail art. She is very hard worker. Moreover, she is a student of a beautician's  school. I respect her. After we left Tsuruya, we went Festa in the basement of TSUTAYA. We took purikura, and we went home. Yuika drove me home. I want to talk with Yuika all day in a next chance.

After lunch, we went karaoke to SHIDAX. We enjoyed karaoke for three hours. Yuki is good at singing, I think every time. I am not good at singing. I want to sing well. After we left SHIDAX, we went MacDonald. We ate French fried because MacDonald held a French fried 150 yen sale. After that, we had a part-time job each other, so we said good-bye. I didn't want to go to the part-time job, but it was very slack.

Essay 2-03b: Joint Movie Review

The member of our group is Nana and Sakura. We worked jointly on this essay. We are going to write about works of Daniel Radcliffe. May be, almost people know about Daniel Radcliffe because he is a star of Harry Potter series. The series are very famous. We watched two movies that he appeared; Harry Potter and Philosopher’s Stone and Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets.

Nana watched Harry Potter and Philosopher’s Stone. Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone is the first novel in the Harry Potter series. It describes how Harry discovers he is a wizard, makes close friends and a few enemies at the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. But he didn’t know he is wizard until he became 11 years old. And with the help of his friend thwarts an attempted comeback by the evil wizard Lord Voldemort, who killed Harry’s parents when Harry was one year old. Voldemort possess Quirinus Quirrell. Quirrell can’t take Philosopher’s Stone from The Mirror of Erised but Harry looked it he got the stone easily. Voldemort going to take the stone away from Harry use Quirrell but Quirrell burned to touch Harry. Then he died. Voldemort ran away because he doesn’t have body.

Watched this movie then thought picture and sound are good. This movie is using a lot of computer graphics, so it is powerful and thrilling. The original work is novel, so it is difficult to image. But watching picture for movie and it is fuss over derails so people couldn’t take their eyes off it. It is easy to image if stand School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, like this. And Daniel Radcliffe is fit to Harry’s character. He describe Harry very well. And if you watch this movie, you can find Daniel Radcliffe is so young and small than now. If you have watched Harry Potter series, you should watch this movie. It is recommend for who have never watched Harry Potter. It is interesting movie.

Sakura watched Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets. This movie is the second work of Harry Potter series. Daniel performed Harry again. Harry grow up than the first work, and became the look that is clear-cut and fearless. This story is about Chamber of Secrets. There was the Chamber of Secrets in Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. There was the legend that a monster of Slytherin was there. In this movie, Harry met Dobby who is a house-elf. Dobby was a key person of this movie. Dobby is a scatterbrain. Moreover, he doesn’t know how to get things done, but he tried to help Harry. He respects Harry and appears even in a later work to help Harry. In the latter half of the story, Harry confronted Tom Marvolo Riddle. Tom is Lord Voldemort. He wanted to revive in perfect form. Harry fought basilisk that is a monster of Slytherin. Basilisk was very scary and spooky. A scene of a battle with basilisk was very thrilling! The end of a battle scene, Harry stabbed Riddle’s diary with the tusk of the basilisk.

There are some comical scenes in this movie. For example, Harry and Ron transformed themselves into Goyle and Crabbe with Polyjuice Potion. However, they often commit a blunder because the voices are not changed even if use the Polyjuice Potion.On the other hand, Hermione fails in transformation and becomes a half cat person. And also, Gilderoy Lockhart appeared this movie. He is popular among women by the features that are the great deal of effort. In fact, he has a foolish character. The incantation which he hit for Ron came back to himself, and he was made to lose memory in the end of the movie.

Daniel Radcliffe has finished acting as a star in all of Harry Potter series. He became a very famous actor all over the world. However, it is as Harry Potter. He is too strong in the impression of the position. He continues still energizing, so we wish for that he can play an active role at the forefront. In the future, we will be able to see him on the screen as a new role.

Mr. Putter considerably had a hard time to walk Zeke, but Mrs. Teaberry does it every day! I think it is very laborious work. People do not take effort cats about it because people do not need to take the cat to the walk.

There are many actors and actresses on TV programs, and there are some my favorite actors and actresses, too.

I think that she has high acting ability. She won many prizes. Though she is an actress, she appears in many variety programs. People who acted in the same play by a variety program say that she is an openhearted and good person severally. I think that it must be the truth because good personality oozes out from her.

Essay 2-02b: Complete revisions

I am going to tell you about my favorite place. I have many favorite places, so it is hard for me to choose one place. However, I chose one place. It is my house! I write about my house from now on.

I like my house. My house is my place of residence since I was born. My house is the third floor of the apartment. My house is very small, but it is comfortable for me to live. There is not my own room. To tell the truth, I want my own room, but I am not in need of it for the moment. There is my house comparatively towards a downtown. It is very useful for me.

There are good places in my house. First is living room. I spend most of the time for house which is in the house here. There is a table in the middle of living room. I do anything at the table. For example, eating, reading comic books, drawing pictures, watching TV programs, and so on. It is difficult for me to leave from the table more and more in the present season because I have kotatsu. The table is a low table, so I sit down on a legless chair. I have been using this legless chair for a long time. I can relax when I sit down at the table in living room.

Second good place in my house is a bedroom. I like futon than a bed, so I usually lie with the futon. I make room pitch-darkness whenever I sleep. There are my favorite pillow and blanket. I am happy when I am wrapped up in a blanket. I love sleeping, so I don't want to leave futon every morning.

Third good place in my house is a toilet. I bring some things when I go to the toilet. For example, smart phone, magazines, comic books and books. Moreover, I think the toilet is the place that is just right to think about things. I think about many things there. Many people will not think that people stay long in a toilet to be good. However, I stay long in the toilet in spite of myself. May be, I am a nuisance to my family, but I can't readily stop it.

My house is very good for me to live. However, I don't want to do that I don't go out of my house all the time. I think when I came home from the other places, I felt my house is good. May be, I will live in my house for the time being. I want to make good house such as my house in the future.

He had a Thermos strapped to his back and he was wagging his tail. (p.17)

This book is a kind of Mr.Putter and Tabby series. New characters appeared. Their names are Mrs.Teabery and Zeke. I was convinced that Mr.Putter doesn't have any friends,  so I surprised when Mrs.Teabery and Zeke appeared. However, I am relieved to read it.

I think Tabby and Zeke have clear heads. I was impressed by Tabby's sitting on Mr.Putter's head to keep it warm while he read a newspaper. I was also impressed by Tabby's rubbing Mr.Putter to help him feel better. However, I have laughed unintentionally when he sneezed towards her face. Zeke is very smart dog. And he is very cute! I want to have him...

Today, I went Kumamoto Clair with my mother. Yesterday, my mother said "Let's go to Clair together tomorrow". I had to do homework, but I want to go there too, so I consented it. We got up at 7:00 a.m. today, and went out our home at 8:00 a.m. We went there by bus because we don't have a car. It took about 40 minutes. After we arrived Clair, there was full of people in spite of what just opened. We went to UNIQLO first of all. We bought many clothes. I bought black pants and new jeans. I want them very much, so I am satisfied. My mother bought Heat Teck. I think Heat Teck is a necessary article in winter. After we left UNIQLO, we strolled in the second floor of clair. I wanted new coat. However, the second floor did not have the thing which appealed. It was just lunch time, we went down in the first floor and ate lunch in Sushi-Ichiba. We like Sushi very much, but near the house does not have a revolving sushi bar, so we were happy to eat sushi. I love a salmon. I ate them a lot! After we ate lunch, we strolled in the first floor, but the first floor did not have the thing which appealed, too. We ate 31 Ice Cream. I like 31 Ice Cream than Haagen-Dazs because it is cheap and has many various of ice cream. After we left 31 Ice Cream, we went AEON and ride a bus to Kotsu-Center. We came back to home at about 4:00 p.m. I was very tired, but I had a good day.

Typing Homework 9: My favorite games

I like to play games. I have favorite games, so I write about them. First my favorite game is Tetoris. I think Tetoris is very famous and popular game. Tetoris is puzzle game. I have to use my head when I play the game, so it is good exercise for me. Whenever I play the game, I leave one gap lengthwise and pile up blocks. When an oblong block comes, I put it in a gap! Then, four steps of blocks piled up disappear in a mass. It is very pleasant. However, an oblong block sometimes does not readily come, so I can’t delete blocks, and it becomes the game over. I like other puzzle games, but I think Tetoris is the best puzzle game. Second my favorite game is Pocket Monster. It is famous and popular, too. There are many kinds of games of Pokemon. I have seven game cassettes among the series. The game of Pokemon is sold by Nintendo. This game is role-playing game. I can go for an odyssey with my monsters. They are very dear. I feel parental love. I defeat Jim Leaders of each place during odyssey. I am excited when I battle against them. I want to play Pokemon now!!

By the way, it is said that spring is an encounter and a parting season all right, but I think it is very good because it means I can make many friends. Moreover, I have spring vacation in spring! I can do a lot of things during spring vacation, so I like spring very much.

TUTORIALISMⅣ

I went Fukuoka to go TUTORIAL's solo concert last Monday. I was looking forward to going there. I have never seen live TUTORIAL. I wanted to see them very much!! So, I was very happy when I got a ticket.

I went to the university on that day because I had classes. After I took 2 classes, I went back home and went to Fukuoka. The site which was held concert was in Sawara in Fukuoka. I rode a bus from Kotsu-Center to Tenjin. It took 2 hours. I spent time while listened to music. I arrived Tenjin at about 5:30 p.m. I went to a bus stop, and I rode a bus from Tenjin Station. The bus went to Fujisaki. It took about 20 minutes. I arrived Fujisaki. The site was near to the bus stop of Fujisaki. When I arrived the site, there were many people. They lined up in front of the site. I joined the line and waited opening. At 6:30 p.m., the site opened. I went to the place where was sold goods immediately. I was able to get a T-shirt somehow while suffering hardship in a crowd. There was still time a little until a performance began, so I went to the toilet and entered to the site. My seat was the second of the D line. The line is near to the stage!

I waited little time, and the performance started!! I don't have to write about contents of the concert because this concert is one of the national tour's concerts. Fukuoka was the first day! So I can't write anything, but it was very interesting!! I had a good laugh! I was happy to see TUTORIAL. Watching their comic dialogue with my naked eyes was one of what I wanted to do before I died. I had a very happy time. The performance was held for 2 hours 45 minutes! I was satisfied. After it ended, I went Tenjin and rode a bus, and I arrived Kumamoto at about 12:30 a.m.

TUTORIAL held solo concert 3 years ago, but I couldn't go there because I didn't have a part-time job and the concerts are not held in Kyusyu. So, I was really happy to see them. This is my the best memory of my lifetime. I love TUTORIAL very much!!

BR 2-10: The Bookstore Valentine

"They are too shy to send these notes," said the mice. (p.38)

This story was very pretty. Characters in this story are very charming. I think Mr. Brown and Cobweb are good combination! Cobweb is very smart and cute. Mice are good, too. The mouse was apt to be written in the crafty character, but all mice which came out to this story were pretty. I think Mr.Brown's ties are very fashionable! I like his fashion.

I think Mr.Brown and Ms.Button are very innocent. They are innocent to throw it away without being able to hand the love letter which they wrote with much effort with them! However, I am glad that they were finally bound together on the coattails of Cobweb and mice!

KKP#7 RORSCHACH

I went Hakata yesterday because a performance was held in Canal City Hakata. The performance was "Rorschach". A person called Kentaro Kobayashi deals with direction and the script of the work, and himself appears in a work, too. He is member of "RAHMANS". Rahmens is conte group. I love it, so I decided to go this performance.

I got up at 11:15 a.m. and prepared. I went to Kumamoto station and met Akane. We rode the Shinkansen Tubame. It was happy and excited to get on the Shinkansen because it was rare. Shinkansen is very fast! We arrived Hakata and strolled Hakata station because the performance starts at 7:00 p.m. We had gift certificates for 1,500 yen, so we did shopping using it each. I bought two T-shirts after having been at a loss badly. Akane bought a pass holder. We spend a lot of time there. Then, we went Canal City. We confirmed the distance to a theater. After that, we strolled again. At about 5:00 p.m., we ate dinner in Pietro ahead of schedule. I ate tomato source spaghetti of bacon and the spinach, and Akane ate fish and rice casserole of a shrimp and the adductor muscle. It was good. I like Petro very much. After dinner, we took Purikura.

Then, we went to the theater because it was time for opening. There were many people in the theater! I admired the numerousness of the surplus person. It was what I knew, but thought that after all Kentaro Kobayashi was great. In the place to sell goods, it was stood in line. However, I bought nothing. We sit down seats and went toilet. It was 7:00p.m., and the performance finally began!

I write a summary of this performance. There are four people in this performance. They live in Kabegiwa island. The island is surrounded by the walls. They were selected for member of reclamation. As for them of the first meeting, a sled was not correct first. They have a fault toward each and come to gradually cooperate while they are going to fix it. However, the cannon that they practiced beating for reclamation was an attack toward people considered to be actually in the other side of the wall...

The performance was wonderful! We had a very good time. After the performance finished, the cast received standing ovation. The applause did not stop sounding for a long time. It was really wonderful. To tell the truth, the performance was a repeat performance of the things which performed in 2010. So, if you are interested in this performance by this post, you can borrow DVD in rental shops. Please borrow it!

After we leave the theater, we went back to Hakata station. We bought souvenir, and rode Shinkansen, and came back to Kumamoto. Yesterday was very wonderful day! I love Kentaro Kobayashi;)

My friend, Haruna works there, so we went there. We met in Bipuresu at 5:30 p.m. and went Bege-tejiya by walk. The shop which just opened in July, both the appearance and the interior decoration were beautiful.

I didn't know sam-gyeopssal. However, I looked up the words, and I understood. Sam-gyeopssal is famous Korean food. First, we grill pork, and cut them. We wrap the pork, koch'ujang, slice of long green onion and kimchi with Sanchu. Sanchu is kind of lettuce. I wrap namul and the bean sprout of the Japanese radish, Korean laver, the rice cake together elsewhere.

I and Ayaka ate sam-gyeopssal for the first time. It was very very good!! We ordered course menu. The rate was cost per head 2,500 yen, but we became very full finally. Closing it in the last was Bibimbap. Haruna fried it in a heart(*´∀｀*) It was very pretty. I spent very good time! I want there again!!

Essay 2-02a: Complete draft

I am going to tell you about my favorite place. I have many favorite places, so it is hard for me to choose one place. However, I chose one place. It is my house! I write about my house from now on.

I like my house. I live here since I was born. My house is the third floor of the apartment. My house is very small, but it is comfortable for me to live. I don't have my own room. To tell the truth, I want my own room, but I am not in need of it for the moment. I like that there is my house comparatively towards a downtown.

There are good places in my house. First is living room. I spend most of the time for house which is in the house here. I have a table in living room. I do anything at the table. For example, eating, reading comic books, drawing pictures, watching TV programs, and so on. It is difficult for me to leave from the table more and more in the present season  because I have kotatsu. The table is a low table, so I sit down on a legless chair. I have been using this legless chair for a long time. I can relax when I sit down at the table in living room.

Second good place in my house is a bedroom. I like futon than a bed, so I usually lie with the futon. I make room pitch-darkness whenever I sleep. I have favorite pillow and blanket. I am happy when I am wrapped up in a blanket. I love sleeping, so I don't want to leave futon every morning.

Third good place in my house is a toilet. I bring some things when I go to the toilet. For example, smart phone, magazines, comic books and books. Moreover, I think the toilet is the place that is just right to think about things. I think about many things there. Many people will not think that people stay long in a toilet to be good. However, I stay long in the toilet in spite of myself. May be, I am a nuisance to my family, but I can't readily stop it.

I really like my house. However, I don't want to do that I don't go out of my house all the time. I think when I came home from the other places, I felt my house is good. May be, I will live my house for the time being. I want to make good house such as my house in the future.

Typing Homework 6: My favorite class

My favorite class is Japanese literature reading. The professor is Ms.Akai. I wanted to take the class when I was a freshman, but it was from a second grader that I could take this class. I read Japanese literature and consider the characters’ feelings, figurative expressions and more in this class. There are many famous Japanese novelists’ literary works in the textbook. I like reading novels, so this class is interesting for me. However, I have this class in third period, so I always feel sleepy. I take this class with Yuki, but she sleeps almost every time. It is slightly interesting. There are some parts which a writing style is hard to read a little unlike now because the most of a literary works appearing in this textbook are the things of modern times. I want to come to easily understand them.

BR 2-08: Karen and the Artist

"They're extraordinary," he says.  (p.8)

The artist who names Antonio is little self-centered. He has a talent, indeed, but the act that he leaves a picture, and the money does not pay is annoying to a barman. I think he lacks of common sense. For such him, Karen might be a savior. I think Karen is a reliable person and smart. If it is her, it will be served out an agent magnificently. However, may she do the coexistence of a cabin attendant and the agent? I think it is hard for her. Moreover, I seem that Antonio depends on her. If he is successful as a painter, as for Karen, a living will become easy.

BR 2-07: The Old Woman Who Named Things

She didn't like the idea of being a lonely old woman without any friends, without anyone whom she could call by name. (p.4)

I am glad because the old woman was not lonely finally. I named my iPod and my bicycle, but I feel loneliness like her, and it is because there is merely attachment not treasure. Incidentally, my iPod's name is Ashley and my bicycle's name is Natasha.

By the way, I was surprised that the old woman's car which named Betsy was so cool...! Her house, bed and chair were cute. I feel a sense of incongruity. If Lucky dies earlier than the old woman, it is that she becomes lonely again to be one worry.

BR 2-06: Good Night, Good Knight

So he bent and kissed each scaly little cheek. (p.41)

I chose this book because the illustration is cute, and I think the title is little interesting. There were some I read this story, and thinking.

First, I wonder how three little dragons slept so far. Indeed were they sleeplessness so far? It is hard to think so. Was the act that had a Good Knight work as them really necessary? It means that Good Knight must continue the same thing every night from now on really, if necessary.

Second, I think a Good Knight is not "good" Knight. He is easy to deal with. He was called to come four times at the midnight and I was honest and coped. I read this story and was irritated by the second when he was called to come. His horse is an amazed look, too finally.
