Presentation

     I enjoyed listening to classmates' presentation. Everyone has various hobbies, especially music and movies. I rarely watch movies because I thunk it's just fiction. Therefore, I haven't seen movie for 10 years.
However, my classmates’ presentation made me feel like watching movies again, so I'll try watching movies in this summer vacation.
    One of the most impressive presentaion was Tomomi's one. She explained the difference of sweets and desserts. I didn't know the difference, so I learned a lot of many new things. Beside, she also explained the origin of a word "cream puff". It's origin is so interesting!! This is why she gave me a lot of very useful knowledges!! Thank you Tomomi.
    I wish I would have a chance to listen to the others' presentation again!

Difference of Opinion between Men and Women

     There are many differences of opinion between men and women. First, women tend to feel cold when men feel hot. It is because women have less muscles which emit heat. When I adapt the temperature to women's one, I always sweat. It bothers me very much. Second, most women took more time to make their apparences good. Men usually set hair, while women usually set hair and make themselves up. Making  themselves up takes much time, so men often had to wait for women when they go outside together. Third, women tend to like sweets, while men tend to not like them very much. When men ask women to buy something to eat, women sometimes buy a lot of caikes. Eating so many cakes make men feel ill.
   These differences often cause conflicts between men and women. It is important to compromise with each other when conflicts occurs.

Recent Life

       Recently, I have been studying math and physics but don't study chemicals and Japanese . I can study them because I have only 1 report!! Other students have a lot of  reports,so they seems very busy!! Besides, I often watch sports news because softbank hawks is very very very strong now. Hawks is now 32 wins and 11 loss and 2 draw. This is wonderful grade. If  they keep this pace through this season, it is said that the number of wins is reach over 100. I hope hawks realize it!! By the way, on my way from school, I often come across very big boars which means "Inoshishi" in Japanese. I am always frightened and run away. I want boars not to appear around me!!
 In April, I often cooked dinner by myself,but in these days I don't. Cooking is very troublesome. In stead of cooking, I eat at school cafe. I tried to eat a lot of vegetable as possible as I can. I hope the cafe to pricedown!! It's price is very high!!

(Stoty 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....

   

 My parents, Uncle Johnney and I started sailing toward Hawaii. At first, our sailing was going smoothly, but suddenly, we were caught in a terrible storm.  Our yacht overturned and we were thrown out into the sea.

We blockd out and woke to find ourselves in an uninhibited island. There were no foods, so we had to gather what we can eat. We could manag to find food and live several days.

 After  few days, we saw a ship running over there. We shouted loudly and swang our clothes but the ship passed. We were very very dissapointed.  We were insufficient in protein because we had eaten only wild grass. Therefore we went into forest to get animal's meat. Unfortunately, we came across big bears and ran away.

However all members except me were eaten by them. I cried and decided to live by myself.

 One day, when I walked in forest, I found a strange facility. A lot of nuclear weapons were made there. I walked into the facility and found a piece of paper written by American government which said that "Make weapons for W.W.Ⅲ". Then, I noticed  that someone was approaching me. I was sticked a gun into my back before turning my face. He said,"What are you doing?". I replied," I'm an American breaucrat and came here to inspect this facility." Fortunately, I could weather the emergency.

 I made a raft to leave here and to tell people the horrible plan. I set out and sailed for a week. I discovered a continent and  landed there. It was Chile. I went to a TV station and informed the staff of all information I saw there. The news was broadcasted all over the world. Finally, American government acknowledged the fact and apologized. The W.W.Ⅲ.　was avoided.

About My Family & Neighborhood

            There are four people in my family, Father, Mother,and Young Sister. We have a poodle whose name is Happy. It is a female dog and very cute!! My father works for NTT in Hakata. He operates computers and sell telephones. My mother works for elementary school. She takes care of sick students or injured students in nurse's room. She is very busy because her school has 800 students, so many students visit her everey day. My sister is 17 years old and went to high school. My sister will be nurse in the future!! She will sure realize her dream. I couldn't realize my dream to be a doctor, so I envy her. My parents always worry me and help me. They invested a lot of money to realize my dream. However I couldn't do it,so I am very sorry for them. I want to please them and be good to my parents in the near future.
   By the way, we live in Higashi ward in Fukuoka city. We live in old residential area called "Miwadai". There are many old people and a few young people,so it is very quiet.  This area was mountains in the past,therefore there are many steep slopes and few flat roads. In result, it is very difficult to go outdoor by bicycle and many people use cars and moterbikes. We live at the top of the mountain, so landscapes seen from my house is very beautiful.First of all, we can see sea from balcony.The sunset is very very beautiful and beyond words! Second, we can see Ferris wheel and Fukuoka Dome which are illuminated at night far to my house. They are very beautiful and magnificient. Third, we can see cars with light which is running highway at night. it is also very beautiful and I like to see them.

My ideal house

          I want to live in the city in the future such as Fukuoka, Hiroshima and Kobe. There are three reasons.First, there are many facilities for travel such as buses, subways, trains and  so on. I can go anywhere even if I can't drive a car. If I live in country, it is very difficult to go to where I want to go, because there are a few facilities for travel and they have only a few services a day. Second, there are many stores and department stores, so I can buy what I want witout going to faraway places. Third, there are many interesting event in the city.For example,in Fukuoka which is my hometown, many baseball games of Softbank Howks are held in Yahoo!!Dome. Besides, Grand Sumo Tournament called "Oozumou Kyusyu Basyo" are held in November. I like sumo very much, so I would often go to Fukuoka International Center to watch sumo. However, I don't want to live in cities such as Nagoya, Osaka,Yokohama,and Tokyo.There are two reasons for this. One is that thre are too many people in these cities.I don't like crowded places because these places annoys me. The other is that it is said that "Big Earthquakes are sure to hit these cities in near future!!". In 3.11 in 2011, very big earthquake of magunitude 9.0 hitted Tohoku and Kantou area. This earthquake cause very big Tsunami and an accident at Fukushima atomic power plant.Many people died in this catastrophe. I don't want to experience these difficulities. This is why, I want to live in cities such as Fukuoka, Hiroshima, and Kobe.
    By the way, I want to live in a house which has Japanese garden. I like flowers, trees and birds because I can feel comfortable by watching them. In cities, it is difficult to find nature,so I want to enjoy it at my house which is built in a city. If I will be able to built a house like this, I will plant cherry and enjoy a cherry blossom-viewing.
  

Gorlden Week

       In this Gorlden Week, I spend with my relatives. They are my grand mother, my grand father, my aunt, and my uncle. My grand mother and grand father came to Osaka all the way by "shinnkannsenn" from Fukuoka at 4/29. I took my grand parents to my house to show them where I live. Then, I took them to my college and took pictures. They said that "This college is like that of Europe!". After having dinner at my house, we ewnt to my aunt's house in Osaka by train and stayed there. At 5/1, we went sightseeing in Nara prefecture. We went to "Toudaiji" to watch "Daibutsu" which is biggest "Daibutsu" in Japan. I watched it for the first time and was so impressed. Then, we went to "Tennri University". It's buildings were peculiar and were like architectures of China and Taiwan. So, we felt as if came to China. In that evening we ate shusi and went to my aunt's house and stayed there. At 5/2, we went to Kyoto. At first, we went to "Houryuji", which is known for oldest temple in Japan. Next, we went to "Byoudouinn Hououdou", which is very famous in Japan because it's building is craved on the coin called "10 yen". I was so excited that I took many pictures there. It may be improper expression, I thought "I ought to have learn Japanese History". If I had learnt it instead of Geography at high school, the trip must have been more interesting. At last, the time when I must go home came.　I went to my house, and my grand parents went back to Fukuoka. The trip was very interesting and I was very happy to see my relatives for ages.

A child hood memory

      When I was a child, I am not a good boy. I did many bad things,so I was scold by my parents and teachers many times.Occasionally,I was took to polis box. Today, I'm going to tell you some of bad things which I did in the past. The worst thing I did is putting stones on the railroad and looking at a train crushing the stone. I and many other friends enjoyed it very much.One day, when we were enjoying this game, a middle aged woman scolded us.Then, one of my friend said "Damare!Kuso Baba~!!".The woman got very angry and notify the police of this.So, we were took to police box.Then,my parents came to the police box,and I was beaten.  If a train derailed, many people would died and my family couldn't help to commit suicide.The other bad thing I did was playing with fire.I often enjoying this in a vacancy with my friends.We burned many things such as oil,lighter,and so on.It was very dangerous!An old woman who watched what we do notified my school. Then,we were scolded again.I did many other bad things,but I can't write them on this blog because they are too bad to introduce.
      I was a bad child,but I challenged many things very hard.I learnt "Piano","Syuzi","Swimming","English","Basketball",and"Karate".I want to be able to playing the guitar and drum in the future.And I want to be good at cooking.So, I will try hard again to realize this ends.

What I like about Japan

         I like Japan very much.There are two reasons.First,there are many delicious food in  Japan. I especially like "Hakata Tonkotu Lamen"which is eaten in Fukuoka. In addition to ramen,there is Japanese food called "Udon" which is like ramen. There are many kinds of udon In Japan such as "Sanuki Udon","Kitune Udon",and "Wakame　Udon”.All of them is very delicious!!Second,many famaous animations are born in Japan.Now Japanese animation is very popular　among all over the world！For example,"Doraemon" is broadcasted in Korea,USA,Thailand,and many other countries.I am very proud of this as a Japanese.
