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.
