MR "The Notebook"




This time, I will write about "The Notebook". Japanese title is "Kimi ni yomu monogatari". I really moved this story. This movie was sad, but heart-warming. You can not help moving to tears, I think.


First, I will explain about story.There are a old woman in the hospital. She lost her memories. Then, there are a man who go to same hospital regularly. He read one love story for her. The women have not hear the story but she felt she know that story.


Here is the story. There was young lady who is rich and genius. Her name was Ally.She will go to first-class university. At the same time, there was a young man whose name was Noa. He was not rich, and he worked at field. They met at amusement park for the first time. Noa fell in love and approached to her. At first, Ally didn't like him because he came on strong. However, he was free and he really loved her. Therefore she also fascinated with him. They stayed together one summer. They were happy. They promised that Noa built his own white house and lived there with Ally. However, Ally had to go far because she would go to university. Besides her parents wanted Ally to saparate with Noa, because Noa was poor. Her parents took her to hometown. Ally and Noa separated without saying anything.


Noa didn't give up. He kept writing letters every day for 365 days. However, the letters didn't arrived her. After a year, finally he gave up, and they had not seen each other for a long time. One day Ally found the newspapre that was written about Noa's house. He built his white house. She had already engaged with the other man, Ron, at that time, but she really wanted to see him. She went to his house, and they met again. Her mother follwed her and told her to go back. In fact her mother stopped Noa's letter. Ally knew all truth. She had to choose, Noa or Ron.And then she made her mind...


The old man stopped reading here. The old woman wanted to read the last. However, she noticed about one things. She knew this story. Because this is her own story!! I mean the old man was Noa and the old woman was Ally. She remembered all of her life. But it was a moment. She forgot about it soon. Noa was so sad because She forgot about him soon. One night, he went to her and talked with her. At that time, she remembered him. Then they slept together with holding their each hands. Next morning a nurse found them. They were dead. However, they looked so happy.


I think, they loved each other. So, Noa could read the story again and again for her. He must have been sad. If I am forgotten by my important person, I'm really shocked. Noa didn't give up. Therefore, miracle was happened. I learned that it will be happened because people keep believing. I read this book, too. Both of movie and book are really interesting. I can reccomend it to everyone.

This time, I read "Short Stories". This book was written by Oscar Wilde's. He is a famous wirter in the world, and I like his stories. I have never read this book, so I try to read it. You know from the title, this book include a few stories.

First story was "The young king." There are a king but he has only a daughter. She got marry with ordinary man, and have a boy. The boy will be a king. When the boy wen to the castle, there were many things that he never seen. He became so greedy. He ordered many things. And then, he dreamed nightmare. Many people hated the boy who would be a king. Because they have to work like a slave in order to make things for the king. He noticed he was a greedy man, and he didn't want to wear good clothes, crawn, and so on. He wear old clothes and put on crawn that was made of briar. He went to the cathedral. The servants followed him. And then, people looked at God. The boy looked like a God!!

Second is "The Star-Child."One day woodcutters found a baby in the forest. One of woodcitter brought him to his house, and grow. The baby grow up a beutiful boy. However, the boy. He was very cruel, arrogant and selfish. He laughed at poor people. and often killed the animals. But he was so beautiful, mant chaidren followed him and do like the boy.One day, his mother found him but she was poor.He didn't go back with his mother. So, he hurted his mother because of his terrible words. After that, the boy became a ugly face. He noticed that is punishment. Then, he decided to look for his mother.

However, the poor man and his poor woman was the king and queen in this city. He returned before face and became the king.

I like these stories. They are not so long. However, they have deep means, I think. We have to think about discrimination and kindness. If we can communicate with anyone with kindness, the world will be peace.

Important Memory

Yesterday, I went high school in order to meet my friends. In the afternoon, we went to the pool and swam a little bit. We had not swum for a long time, so we were tired soon. In the past, swimming was the easiest sports for me, but now, I think swimming is so hard.

Afer that we went karaoke. My swimming teammates like karaoke. When we meet, we always go to karaoke. We sang and talked a lot. When we were the high school students, swimming club is hard, and I sometimes didn't want to go. However, I notice that that day is great time. All of the club memory is impotrtant including hard time. We talked about it, and laughed a lot.

They are my great friends. I can express myself when we stay together. We made a lot of memories at that time, but I believe we can make more memories since now.

After Robin was born, his father forgive their parents, so Robin could grow up smoothly. He became a lord of Gamwell and Locksley. He was a good lord, but not every lord was good. The Sheriff of Nottingham was the worst man. He was greedy and not kind. He took everything from villagers. Robin rob the money, food, and so on from rich man and give them to poor people.

Sunflower

I love sunflowers. It is the main flower that bloom in summer. Of course everyone know it. Today, I will talk about it.

Sunflower was born in North America. In sixteenth century, they were carried in England, and called "Flower of Sun." Most of people think sunflower bloom toward the sun. However, sunflower see the sun only when they were in bud. After they bloom, they turn to east. Besides, sunflower's petal is not only one. Sunflower consists of many petals. There are two kinds of petals. First one is outside of flower and orange. Another is inside of flower and brown.

There are two reasons why I like sunflower. First, it is so big. If you can grow it well, it has three meters tall and diameter is more than thirty centimeters. It looks like magnificent. Ii gives me confidence. When I am disappionted, I want to see sunflower. Second, sunflower is king of flower in summer and August is sunflower month. I was born in August. I think sunflower is symbol of my birth.

This summer, I really want to go seeing many sunflowers. Sunflower makes me happy. Sunflower grow up toward the light of sun as if the sun were the goal. I will make my way to my goal like a sunflower.

"The girl who go over time" ~ MR ~

I saw the movie today. It was Japanese animation movie, whose title was "The girl who go over time". It is not famous, I think. However, I like this movie, so I will write a review.




First, I will explain the character. The heroin was "Makoto Konno". She could go over the time. And then, her friends were "Chiaki" and "Kosuke". They were boys. Makoto, Chiaki, and Kousuke were best friends. Next is "Kazuko". She was Makoto's aunt and she always support Makoto.

Next, I will explain about the story. Makoto was a high school, second grade student. One day, she got skill to go over the time. She was surprised, but happy. She used the skill many times. She could eat delicious food again and again, stay at karaoke for the long time, remake her past if she made a mistake, and so on. At first, she thought nobody was not in trouble. However, her aunt imply about it. She said, "Somebody will be bothered due to your success."Makoto, Chiaki, and Kousuke were good friends, so they always stay together. Makoto believed they could be friends forever. However, It was not true. Kousuke and Chiaki made girlfriends because Makoto changed past a lot. And then, many people were bothered due to it. And then, she found the skill had limit. She felt so sorry. So she decided not to use it. she found the skill had limit.

One day she noticed the skill was Chiaki's!! Chiaki was a boy who came from future. He went over the time in order to look for one picture. The picture was lost in the Makoto's generation. He really wanted to see the picture and came to the present. However, he lost his tool which give the skill to go over the time, and Makoto had used it all. That mean Chiaki couldn't go home. Makoto thought she had to do anythings in order to save Chiaki, so she went to the past and found his tool, and gave it to Chiaki. However, it means she had to separate with Chiaki. Makoto promised to save the picture till the future, and said bye to him.

"Time wait for no one." This is a phrase in the movie. I think this is so important. We must not waste the time. Time can only pass. It never go back and stop. Everyone have thought that they want to start over their past once. However, of course it is impossible. It is not important to starting over. What important is how we live now. If we made mistake in the past, we can overcome now. It is the power to change the future. We can't change the past. Therefore, we live now so hard in order to go to the future.


This movie is animation, so it is easy to understand and enjoy. After watching this movie, you can live now harder. Everyone must notice how important now. "Time waits for no one." I will not forget this words forever.
