I want to write about the ceremony for new adult.

Yesterday, I came back to my hometown, Minamata at night. My sister is in the hospital in Kumamoto, so I went to there with my father and mother before going to Minamata. After arriving to Minamata, I ate a lot of dishes cooked by my mother. It was so delicious!!! I like these dishes very much. And then, I prepared for next day’s ceremony. Then, I went to bed at 2:00am.

Today, I waked up at 6:00 o’clock. It was so early, isn’t it? Because I had to go to beauty salon for prepare. I changed my dress, and I worn Kimono. I met a lot of old friends there, so I was very happy!! After finishing the preparation, we went to grand mother’s house. We took a lot of photos. Then, I went to the place for the ceremony. When I arrived the place, some people arrived there already. We took a lot of photos, and we entered the hall. The most surprised stage direction was video letter. Our teacher when we were pupil, junior high school and high school. It was so good old!!! After the ceremony, we took a lots lots photos!!!!! I met my old friends. I met one of my friends who had finished with me when we were junior high school. We talked something after a long separation, and I was able to make up with her. I was so happy. Any way, I took a lot of pictures with my class mate when I was high school student and junior high school student, and club. I enjoyed the time. After went back home, I went to some house of relative to say “thank you”. It was hard for me to go somewhere, because kimono is so heavy, so I was not able to move as I wanted. After finished the all plans, I came back home and I slept very well. And then, I ate a lot of dishes cooked by my mother, and I relaxed. Today was very happy day.

I want to be a good adult.
I want to be kind for everyone.
I want to study hard English, and I want to get a god job.
I want to spend my happy life.

I will vote in next election.

This picture is my best friends. They are very cute, isn’t it? Tomorrow, I will come back to Kumamoto. I want not to go to there and I will stay in Minamata more. However, I must come back to Kumamoto because I have to work as part-time job tomorrow. Tomorrow, the ceremony for new adult in Kumamoto will be opened, so I want not to go to Down Town. I feel depression. However, I finished my all homework, so I will study for the test!!! I will do my best.

Essay 2-02b: Language Learning Stories

Posted: December 15th, 2009, 10:10am PST

I want to write about my language learning stories. Especially, I want to write about my plans, early childhood learning and present. The past, I was very interested in English, but I was not able to use English well. At this time, I didn’t like studying English. I am still very interested in English. However, the more I study English at KGU, the more I like it. I still cannot use English so well now, so I want to more study English in the future. I want to speak English in the future. I want to show some example for detail when and how I have learned language.

First, I want to write about my plans for the future. I want to have the skill of speaking in the future very much, because I want to speak with a lot of people from other countries. I want to find out a lot of different cultures by talking with them. Then I want to go to a lot of the countries. When I visit those countries, I can communicate with there people, if I speak English well. I can turn the skill to the future job. I will talk with students from overseas actively to get skills for speaking and communication. I will speak actively in speaking class. Therefore, I will do my best to be able to speak in English well in the future.

Second, I want to write about my history. When I was 5 years old, I knew English. Before going to infant school, I used to watch the TV program of English everyday. The TV program is “Eigo de asobo”. I liked it very much and I enjoyed watching it everyday. I learned about music in English in preschool then. I liked it and I sang the son everyday.

And then, when I was pupil, I met a girl who is from Australia. I began to learn English by meeting her because I wanted to write some letter in English and speak with her in English. Therefore, I started to listen to a radio program to studying English. Then, I also started to learn English in class. First, I liked English class. However, the more class became difficult, the more I hate English.

When I was highschool student, I had to study English to take some examination for university. Therefore, I study hard and my English skill was developed a little. I liked English again, so I decided to enter KGU.

University of the first year, I learned English and culture. Addition to English, I learned French. I was interested in English and foreign country more. I went to NZ during spring vacation in first year of university. It was first time for me to go abroad. I learned a lot of things which I can not learn in Japan. For example, I can feel difference of the culture directly through eating, speaking and life style. My history and experience is giving good influence to my life.

How about present? I am also studying English at KGU everyday. For example, I write blog in English, so I think that my writing skill will become better. However, I did not study English except class of KGU. I have a lot of time to study, so I must study hard now.

In addition to English, I am learning Korean because I have Korean friends. Learning Korean is easy for me, and I like studying Korean. Korean is so look like Japanese, because grammar and phrase is sometime same. Then, I also have Chainese friends, so I want to learn Chinese.

My history is very important for me. Especially, the experience I went to go NZ is my treasure. Now, I don’t study hard English and I just learn English in KGU. However, I want to speak English well in the future. Therefore, I will do my best.

speaking Presentation☆

Posted: December 1st, 2009, 3:11pm PST

I write my presentation’s manuscript.

Thank you, Shiori.
Now, I want to tell you about survey of using cell phone in classes. Almost Japanese people have cell phone. I don’t know who have not cell phone. And then, I know some people who have two or more cell phone. Cell phone is so convenient and we can communicate easily by using it. So, we have cell phone. This circumstance gives our life a lot of influence. For example, not being able to calm without cell phone, not being able to communicate without cell phone, and so on. So, I expected the result which a lot of people uses cell phone in class. The result is same my idea. 96% of the people uses cell phone in classes. A few people don’t use cell phone in class. I look some people who use cell phone in class every day, so this result is right. And then, our researches continue. We want to know the things which they do with their cell phone during classes. Almost people send some e-mail during classes. And 6 % of people play game and 4% of people watch web-site during class. A few people call someone during class. It is so rudeness. We cannot study sufficiently, because we are concerned about our cell phone. We must study hard in class. So, we must change out attitude in class. That’s all. Next presenter is Kyoko.

1. Which would be a better first date?
A: Dinner and a movie B: A live concert and a snack

I like plan A better than plan B, because we can calm when we watch a movie and eat something at dinner. In the other hand, when we take part in a live concert, we can not calm. And then, we don’t know what kind of music dose he like or dose she like. We will be feel stress in first date, so we should choice the situation which we can calm.

2. Which would be more interesting?
A: vacation in Korea B: Vacation in Hawaii

Vacation in Korea is more interesting than vacation in Hawaii, because I like Korean food. – Yakiniku, Kimchi, and so on. and then, I want to go a shop of beauty treatment in Korea. I heard it is nice and cheap. In the other hand, I heard that there are a lot of Japanese in Hawaii. Therefore, we may need not to use English. It is not interesting. Therefore, I think plan A is more interesting than plan B.

3. Which would be a better pet?
A: A turtle B: A non-poisonous snake

I like a turtle better than a non-poisonous snake, because I hate a snake. I am scared about a snake if the snake has no poison. In the other hand, I think a turtle is calm and cute. Therefore, I like a turtle better then a non-poisonous snake.

4. Which invention is more important?
A: The telephone B: The automobile

The telephone is more important than the automobile. We can communicate by using telephone. It is important for us to communicate.

Therefore, I think that the telephone is more important than the automobile.
