  Book Review #13

  Posted: January 21st, 2010, 12:57am PST

  I read a book. It is a story of Haunted Houses. I know the title, but I did not know the story. When I saw the title, I thought that it was “Haunted Houses”, wasn’t “Haunted Mansions”. Haunted Mansions is known for us than Haunted Houses. Because there is a attraction of Haunted Mention in Tokyo Disney land. I have been to Tokyo Disney sea but I have never been to Tokyo Disney land. So I have never rode this attraction. But I am going to go to Tokyo with my friends in my spring vacation, and we are going to go to Tokyo Disney land too. I want to ride this attraction. I am looking forward to go to Tokyo. The Haunted mention was made into a movie. It is a Disney movie. I have watched the movie long time ago, but I did not remember much. I thought that this book was same as the story of the movie before I read it. But it was different from the story of the movie. The book had three another stories. So it was very long. First story was Chill more Castle. The main character is Max. The twins always bullied him. One day, He was left alone in the dungeon was famous for appeared ghosts. When he saw a ghost, he was fearful but the ghost was friendly, kind and feeble. The ghost knew that the twins scared him all the time, so the ghost scared twins. Finally, the twins said, “We well never bully again”. The ghost could become a true knight. It was very interesting story. The second story was Highwayman’s Halt. The third story was Grimly Grange. But I felt that the first story was the most interesting story. All of stories appeared all kinds of ghost. For example, a ghost of first story was friendly, week and kind. A ghost of second story had a strong sense of justice and he became a hero. Ghosts of third story were very funny and blunders. It was very interesting for me to appear a lot of kinds ghost. Despite many ghost appeared in the story, it was not horror story. Thank you your reading. (367words)

  Book Review #12

  Posted: January 21st, 2010, 10:30pm PST

  I read a book named “Hensel and Gretel” today, this is the Grimm Brother’s fairy tales. So the story is very popular all over the world. I think that most of people imagine a candy house when we hear “Hansel and Gretel”. Hansel and Gretel’s house was very poor. They did not have something to eat much so their stepmother tried to leave them in the forest. They were always starving. But they could go home on the first time because Hansel dropped pebbles on the way they walked. But second time, they was left in deep forest by their stepmother. He dropped the breadcrumbs but it was eaten by birds. So they could not go home. When they were walking, they found a little house made by candies. For example, the walls were made from backed cakes, roof was chocolate, windows is sugar and a door is a gingerbread. It is a house like a dream. But it was a wicked witch’s house. She tried to feed them a lot of dishes. Her purpose was to eat him, so the witch tried to feed him up. It was trap! One day, the witch was going to eat Hensel. The witch told Gretel to check the oven how warm it was. But she said, “I can not”. She said that she could not it because her head was very big. So the witch tried to do it. at that time, she pushed the witch into the oven. So the witch dead. They got some jewels and went home led by birds. They went their home, their stepmother has gone. She had already left. So they became rich because of the jewels, they always ate a lot. I like the story because I like the house made from candy house. I want to see the house. I have seen a tinny candy house, it made me excited. The walls made from cakes, chocolate roofs, sugar windows, it is like a dream. I thought that Hansel was genius because he showed a twig instead of his finger. I thought that he thought he would be eaten if he showed his fatter finger. she caked the witch too. So they were very genius. It was very interesting story. Thank you for your reading. (380words)

  My catas

  Posted: January 12th, 2010, 9:37am PST

  I introduce my cat. I have two cats in my family home. One of the cats name is Chibimie. The reason why she has the name is very easy. Because we had a cat named mie before Chibimie came my house. She lived long time. She lived about 16 years and she dead of old age. I was very very sad. Then chibimie came. She was very small because she was staggering cat. So we named her chibimie. Mie and chibimie is same calico cat. Chibimie is 5 years old. She gave birth 4 cats when she was 1 years old. I was very expected when she gave birth. The cats were very cute. Every one different their pattern. One of them was a black cat, one of them was a brindled cat, one of them was a calico cat and the other one was a Kiji cat. I loved them very much. But a calico cat killed by his father. I was very sad and I could not believe it. I could not believe why her father killed his daughter. I was very surprised. The Kiji neko went to my friend's house. A Black cat and a brindled cat were owned as pet in my house. So we had three cats in my house. But a black cat named Jiji dead in a car accident when I was a high school student. She dead after being hit by a car. I and my family were wondering why she did not come back to the house. Next day, a neighbor hood told my grandmother to our cat dead on the road. I was very sad because I like her very much. Her hair was very good to the stroke. It was so glossy. She dead, so we have two cats in my house now. They are Chibimie and Pin. Pin is a brindled cat and he is 4 years old. He is always sleeping in my house, and he eat a lot. And he does not much move, so he is fat. Chibimie is small and Pin is twice bigger than her. But he is so cute because he is fat. He is slow in action too. He is sure to give an answer when we talk to him. It is very interesting! They like dried bonito very much. So my grandmother always buys a big dried bonito's pack. It is real "like trusting a wolf to watch over sheep". I miss them because I live alone in Kumamoto city, so I live far from my cats. I want to see them soon. My sister sends me their pictures a few times. It is so cute picture. I feel at ease when I sea their picture. I like my pets very much. Do you like cat? I like cat than dog, but I like dog too! But I have never have dog because my mother hate dogs. So I want to have dog some day. Thank you for your reading. (500words)

  Posted: November 24th, 2009, 9:57am PST

  I watched a DVD of movie called "Confessions of a Shopaholic" with my friends. I wanted to watch this movie very much when it was screened at cinema. But I wasn't able to go to see it. So I was very exiting before I watched it today. There were a lot of empathetic thing for me. The story of the movie was very interesting. The main character is Rebecka who is a shopping addiction. She went shopping and broke up the stores. She bought a lot of clothes, bags and shoes. There were a lot of clothes, bags and shoes in her room and there was no place to step. But she could not help buying them when she found nice clothes and shoes. But she had not money so much, so lots of her credit cards had maxed out. She noticed that something's got to give. So she tried to career change on her long-cherished dream of working at first-class companies. One day, she knew the fashion magazine named alet accepted new application. The company of fashion magazine named alet was her dream. So she supposed to have an interview with the company. But she came into regular employment in economy magazine company. It is a same publishing company as the fashion magazine. It was an accident! She found the store was having a clearance sale and go into the store on their way to the job interview. She found a green scarf and she tried to buy it. The price was 120 dollars!! It is too expensive for me. She paid for 100 dollars by cash and she tried to pay for 20 dollars by her credit cards, but all of her cards could not use. So she went to the store near there and she said that her grandmother was sick, so she wanted to buy a scarf. Then, a man lent her for 20 dollars. I thought that he is very good man! She went to the job interview after she bought it, the company of fashion magazine stopped the recruitment. So she was supposed to have the company of economy magazine’s interview. But the interviewer was the man who lend her 20 dollars. he name was Luke. What a freakish coincidence! She threw out the scarf in a hurry. It was so funny. Then a woman took the scarf and said, “You dropped.” So she got caught in a lie. The excuse she said was very funny too. She said that she took it for her grandmother, but she died! In 25 minutes…But She did not know about economy at all of course, but she had to write an article. So she wrote an article seeing the Internet and it was received well because her articles described well how consumer would feel. Then columns became a sleeper hit. She wrote the column utilize information acquired from shopping. Her name in the column was "Green scarf”. One day, she received a telephone call in her office from repo man named smith. But she tried to hide the repo man. She did not want know about her debt. She changed ring alert from smith into “don’t answer! It is smith”. It was very funny. Her friend had her take part in a counseling for compulsive shopper. One day, she was supposed to appear in the TV show. But smith was in audience and he blew about her debt. And lurk left her too. She changed her mind. And she held a sale to sell her clothes, bags and shoes as Green scarf. How to the sell was auction. That scarf was sold to a girl too. After that, she was not compulsive shopper. When she was walking the downtown, she did not fascinate by a nice shop. And she and lurk got back together. They were in love with each other. And he had the green scarf! Because a girl who bought it was his staff. That was wholly unexpected. It was very interesting movie. I want to buy a lot of clothes, shoes and bags too, but I do not want be compulsive shopper like her. But I think that shopping is so enjoy and makes me happy as same as her. But I thought that shopping addiction was terrible. Because she thought that her cards were stolen by someone, someone used my cards when she looked at her credit-card statement. She could not accept reality. That's a scary thought. But she was positive person so I like her. She is a lovable person. I like the purple dress she was wearing when she appeared in TV show. It was so cute.
  A fashion stylist of the movie is Patricia Field. She is one of the very popular stylists. She set out the costume of the movie such us the Sex and the city and the Devil wears Prada. I have watched there movies and I like them very much! There were a lot of luxo brand such us Miumiu, christian dior, Balenciaga, Prada and so on. I was surprised to hear that theme of Rebecca’s character is “style of Harajuku, Japan”. And she bought a lot of items in Japan. Bouts she was wearing in the opening scene bought in 109 in shibuya. I was very surprised. And I was glad to hear that. I did not know that the movie was got from the original. So I want to read the original book. The movie is one of my favorite movies. I like this movie very much. I will recommend a lot of people. Thank you for your reading. (936words)

  I watched a movie called “Cars”. It was first time for me to watch it. It is a Disney movie. I like Disney movies but I had never watched it. Any humans come into the story. Everyone is a car. At first, I felt something wrong with the cars talking, but I did not feel uneasy at all in the middle of this story.
  The main character is Lightning McQueen who is a genius racer. He was enormously popular as a racer. But he was a selfish and a confident man, so he did not have friends. One day, he participated in a race named “Dinaco 400”, but McQueen and other two cars reached the winning goal at the same instant. So they were going to bring to an end in California. But he wandered into a county town called “Radiator springs” during movement to California. He broke the road of the town, and he was ordered to repair the road. He was going to leave the town as soon as possible, but he had changed while he came in contact with residents of this town. He met the true friendship.
  There was the cooperation of the residents of the town, Radiator springs, too, and he was going to win the championship at the race. I was impressed by the last race very much. King was shoved away in a last round, and he was not able to move. McQueen stopped just before the finish line, and he came back to King. He pushed him and they crossed the finish line together. McQueen who only thought of win until now abandoned a victory and helped his friend. I was impressed very much. I thought there is the thing that is more important than winning. McQueen noticed that there are really important things than become NO.1! It is very wonderful. It was good that I watched this movie. I want to recommend it to everyone. (331words)

  I have many memories in my life. I especially enjoyed in my high school days. My class did not change for 3 years, so we become very close. Our class was very good. I did not like to do study and school rule was very stringent, but I enjoyed when I talked to my friends. I enjoyed eating a lunch. I had a lunch with 11 every day and talked a lot. It was very pleasantly time for me to joke and laugh a lot. The teacher often paid us attention because we were very noisy during a class. I feel sorry about it now. When I was a second year student, we went to Nagano and Tokyo on a school excursion. In Nagano, we skied for the first time. I did not want ski until that time, but it was a pleasure to ski in practice. I think that reason of could enjoy was be with good friend. Ski was so difficult for me. I fell down many times. I had a generalized myalgia because of it. But it was a good experience. I had a good time at after school too. I did not belong to any clubs, so I talked with my friends in our classroom every day. We often talk over snacks that bought at store near the high school. I was very happy. I went to school by train. After we got to the station, we often went to park, and we talked a lot and played.

The origin of the name is that the former cat’s name was Mie. She is 4 years old. She came my house when I was 15 years old. At that time she was a very small because she was a kitten and was afraid. She was once an alloy cat but my uncle picked her up and took her my house.
  A year later, she bore four kittens. But a tomcat killed one of them, and my friend got one of them, and one of them was killed in accident. It made me very sad. So there is a remaining red tabby in my house now. He is 3 years old and his name is Pin. He always sleeps. His favorite place is an attic and on the cushion.
