Learning Many Things

Today, a computer is nessesary for our life. There are computers everwhere we go. Therefor we have to know how to use it and use it well. I also use it everyday in the various ways because it is so useful. Besides I learn with the computer at my school. I will explain about my way to use computer.

First, I often use it for my studies. When I write a report, I use Microsoft Word. I have many report every weekend, so I have to it as early as possible. Typing in the computer is faster than when I write on my hands. What's more, I can correct my writing easily if I use the computer. In the case of hand writing, I have to erase my sentences and I have to write same things again. It is waste of time. I can say writing reports with Word is efficient. I use the computer not only when I write reports. I make my blog. It is one of my school assignments in order to improve my writing English skill. Now, I can write English without hesitation. Therefore, I want to say I use the computer for my studies. I learned how to use well Word, and make blog. I mean I can study effectively with using the computer.

Second, I use it for research. I have to research in order to write a good reports. I use the Internet when I research somethings. It is so useful that I research what I don't know. I can get many information with it easily and the information will be much enough to write a report. This is the reason why I use the Internet when I research somethings. However, there are too much information. Some of them is not true. We have to be careful to get information with the Internet. It is not good for you that you use the information without knowing whether it is true or not. You have to judge you can believe it or not. Therefor I can say, the Internet is so useful to get information what you don't know, but you have to judge whether you can say that is true, or not.

Third, I use it for my entertainments. I like to use Facebook. Do you know Facebook? It is social network service site made in America. It is used also in Japan since May, 2008. I can connect with the people who live in other countries. I have many friends such as American, Canadian, British, Sweden, and so on, on the Facebook. I can chat with them, send e-mail join the community. I often upload my photos and share with them. I communicate with many people in English, so it is good training for me. I can learn English with enjoying when I use Facebook with computer.

Fourth, there are many useful applications in the computer. I can practice my typing with Justhome, it is one of software. The practice is a kind of game, so I am not tired of it. I use it and improve my typing speed. After I am used to typing in English, I often use Power Words. It is the game to increase my vocabulary. I is separated by level, so I can start appropriate level. I can check the words that I couldn't answer because records are input in the computer. I can memorised the words smoothly. I mean I can train my typing and vocabulary skill with computer.

Finally, I often spend my free time with computer. I look for interesting video by You-Tube, listen to music, and so on. Sometimes, I learn how to use Excel with the computer because it is basic tool in the computer. I will use it in the future.

You have already know, the computer is so useful. It is connected with our daily life. We have to know how to use it, and know good way to use. It is sometime difficult to use, but there are many good points to learn with the comoputer. Using the computer, we can work effectively, get many informations, enjoy keping touch with oversea's friends, practice typing, and learn about basic skill about computer. It is nessesary to be able to use computer in the future, so it is good idea to be used to using the computer since now. We can learn many things through the computer. For this reason, I learn with the computer.

Smile of Water ~ Writing Essay "Secret of Kumamoto"~

We can always drink delicious water in Kumamoto. When I came to Kumamoto, I was surprised because people can drink the water from the faucet directly. Yes, everyone know water in Kumamoto is so good. However, do you know why does it so delicious?? Many other prefecture don't allow people to drink running water. On the other hand, people who live in Kumamoto can do it. I want to talk about secret of delicious water.



First, Kumamoto's water is underground water. It is including rich mineral. Rain soak into the underground over many years. The rain is purified and percolated through the stratum and become the city water.These process are naturally. It isn't use any medicine. I mean we drink taste of nature!! One of the reason is Kumamoto prefecture's water is 100 % undergraund water, so it is delicious. Besides, there are many sources to store the water such as sira-river source, Kikuchi source, and so on. There are seven sources that was chosen as great place of water in Japan. We can see and taste springwater there. You should go there at least once!



Second, there are many trees and plants in Kumamoto. That is very good for the delicious water. I said the water is store in the underground. The trees and plants are usuful to store the water. Mt Aso can much water for a long time. There are many good tree and plants. More trees there are, more great water is produced.


However, underground water in Kumamoto has decreased gradually. We used the water without intention, but because people think Kumamoto has much enough to use whenever we want. Yes, Kumamoto is called "city of water"often. People tend to misunderstand the water is prodused forever, but it's worng. Water is used more and more everyday. On the other hand, trees have been cut year after year, and they can't store the water enough. It mean underwater can't be produced!! Did you notice about it? Maybe, most of people didn't. We have to care about the water.

If water lost in the world, we couldn't live anymore. We can drink delicious and safty water whenever you want if you turn on the tap in Kumamoto, because Kumamoto's water is 100 % underground water, and it is produced in the nature. It is so happy life, right?? In the other prefectures, we can't. Therefore we have to save the wonderful water. It has a limit. We should do whatever we can. We recieve the smile of water every day, so we have to appriciate to it.

My Great Community

I will write about my great community. I was a member of swimming club when I was a high school student. I was used to go to the pool after school. We had swum since April. It was so cold but we had to swim in the cold water. Besides, the training was so hard. However, I didn't quit the club because I loved swimming. I started to learn swimming when I was six years old. I had a dream that I want to swim with dolphins. That's why I started to learn to swim. I mean that I could keep trying because I love swimming!!

The swimming club taught me two important things. At first, your efforts will pay off when you don't give up. I swam so hard at that time. We swam at least for two hours, 2000 meter, in a day after school. Even in April, we got into the water. Of course, it was not easy to finish but we could complete training menu everyday without giving up. All of us set our goals. We really wanted to get best time at the competition. Competition is the change to get new record. We know how glad to get the best time, so we kept effort. Sometimes, we couldn't achieve our purposes, but we could get something else, such as patience, forwardness, and so on. It is the power to go to the next step. It is more important than winning or loosing. I mean never giving up is nessesary thing to grow myself.

Second, The swimming club gave me a lot of friends. My swimming club member was funny and always possitive. If they lost the game, they practiced harder and harder. In the club time, we are good friends, but in the competition, we are rivals.I had to compete with them. We could boost the morale each other. All of friends swam so hard every day, so I could swam every day. I could kept trying because of them.

Most of people think swimming is individual sports, but we have also relay. We need team work in the relay. Even if only one person fail, the team is disqualified. Therefore, we practiced many times together. We encouraged and indicate each other what the bad point is. I could learn about importance of cooperartiopn through swimming training. I mean swimming club member taught me the importance of encouraging each other and cooperation.

In conclusion, I talked about importance of never giving up and friends. These are neccessary things for my life. I could get these tresure in the swimming club. If I were not join the club, my life would be boring. I am not member of swimming club now, but I always work hard to archive my goal without giving up now. Bwsides, I go to eat dinner with the swimming club member sometimes even now. I feel our friendship will have kept forever. I will cherish these tresure in my life all the time.

The Relationships with People ~ MR 2-01~

I watched the movie whose title was "Miss Doubtfire". This movie had a few important theme. They are relationships, communication, and Love for children. Today, I will talk about these. At the beginning, we have many relationships in the daily life. It affects communication, job, and so on. We can't avoid concerning with people in our lives, so how to have relationships is important. I will talk about three points for making good relationships.



First, we mustn't be selfish. Daniel, who is the main character in the movie, was selfish a little bit at the first time. He did whatever he wanted, so he lost his job and divorced. In the live, there were many irritation, desire, and so on. However, we have to control these emotions. Of course, you opinions are significant, so you can insist them. You have to know that to insist your opinion and get selfish are quiet different. In the movie, Daniel told his opinion for TV program to the director. It was great job, wasn't it? To insist the opinions appear because the person think of important things such as others, futures, and so on. Selfishness is for only yourself. The first dinner time, he would try to make his children stayed his house. That is his selfishness. If you are always selfish, no people respect you. People need some patience in the life.


Second, to be considerate makes good relationships. Daniel discovered his wife's hidden effort in his house keeping life. He noticed what important to think about others is. When he became Miss Doubtfire, he can listen to all of people carefully. All of people become cordial with him. I say not only to treat people kindly, but also to treat sometimes strictly. He scolded his children when they did wrong behaviors. To spoil is never consideration. Consideration is trying to be better for the people.


Finally, we need to keep having feeling of gratitude. The nearer person he or she is, the more we tend to forget to have it. Do you say "Thanks" to your close person, such as family? We feel it is natural that there are some helps from family. Then, we have to notice it is the most important in our life. Maybe most of people can't live without the closer person. Daniel didn't say it to his wife. Although she was always scolded instead of Daniel, he didn't have feeling of gratitude. After that, he noticed he made mistakes. Therefore, don't forget say "Thanks" to others. It makes your making relationships smoother.

Now, I want to tell about communication. You know, it is a kind of relationships, but also important for life. When you can make a good relationships, you have to keep it. The way is communication. When you communicate with others, you have to hear their opinion. Daniel and the producer of TV program talked each other and succeded. If you only insist what you want to say, people don't want to talk with you any more. communication is mutual things. It is made up each other not only you. Then, you can communicate whoever you want if you care of it.


The last important theme is love for children. In the movie, Daniel gave much love to his children. He really loved them, so the children also loved him even after the divorce. In growing up the children, the most important things is love. They don't need outward family. Even if there are many money, food and clothes, they can't stand loneliness. All of the poeple can't live alone even adults, so children need it surely. When children were gaven much love from their parents, they will give it their children. It is good circle, isn't it?

In conclusion, relationships, communications, and love for children are necessary for your lives.We should not be selfish, have consideration, and have feeling of gratitude to others. It you care there points, you can make good relationships in your life. We can't live alone. Therefore, we have to be concerned and communicate with people. You may be helped by many people even if you don't notice. You are so happy. then you have to give the happiness to your children. It will be great tresure for them.

I love Disney Land ~WE rewrite 2~



How many times have you been to Disney Land?? I love Disney Land so I always go there when I visit my friend's house in Tokyo. I went there last summer vacation. It is known to many people as a dream land. I agree with them because I have been never tired of there. All of things in Disney Land makes me happy, and I can enjoy all day because of three good points about Disney Land. That is the reason why I like Disney Land. Therefore, I want to explain the three points.

First, there are many attractions. It makes me excited. I always get "fast pass" in order to ride popular attractions. You have to run to get it because fast pass is special tickets for popular attraction, so it will have gone soon!! Especially, the three best of mountains is so popular. In the "Splash moutain", you can see many cute characters, but you can't be relived because the boat that you ride fell down suddenly at last. "Space mountain" is speedy roller coaster. You are in the space, so you can see only so many stars. The coaster go around in the situation. You can't think ahead which direction the coaster go. And then, you can see all around of Disney Land when you ride "Big thunder mountain". The landscape is so nice both of day and night. You should ride this one the last.

There are not only roller coaster but also shows, ghost house, and so on. My favorite is "It's a small world". t is a good unknown spot. There are not so many people in it. I mean you can ride it soon without waiting. And then, you can learn about culture in it. You travel all over the world, and the many dolls, that wear cultural uniform, play traditional instruments, sing a song. You can be relaxed in it!! Besides, it is inside, so it is cool in summer and warm in winter. It is great situation, isn't it??

Second, I can eat many delicious foods there. Do you know that there are two kinds of spot where you can eat? One is restaurant, the other is small shop. In the restaurants, you can eat many traditional food, Chinese, Italian, and so on. It is a little expensive, but you can feel rich. They are so delicious. You can eat with characters in some restaurant. In small shop, you can buy light meal. It is less expensive than in restaurant. It may be good idea that you see many shops and eat many kinds of foods. I will give you some recommendations. When you want to eat at restaurant, how about "Polynesian Restaurant". There are Riro and Stich and they show you their performance.
And then, if you will go to eat snacks, you had better to eat churos. It is around 150 yen, and there are many kinds of tastes, like plane, honey, chocolate, cinnamon, and so on. I can recommend you pop corns, cappuccino taste!

Third, you can see many interesting, cute, and beautiful view there. Do you know about "Hided Mickey Mouse"? In the Disney Land, there are many Mickey you will not notice. For example, figure on the wall, shape of the tree, and so on. They control even shadow!! The shape of shadow is Mickey. I was surprised when I know the existence. I never find it, so I try to find it next time. And then, of course, there are many characters and they are so cute and funny. They sometime appear, so you should take pictures with them. You can see many characters also in the parade. I recommend you night parade. It is so beautiful. Many lights twinkle, and I admire it.

Why do you feel that Disney Land has fantastic view? Because there are no garbage on the ground and all of flowers is not die. They care about detail point, so we can enjoy the environment. Besides, we can see many type of world in each area. I mean you can see traditional building in Western Land, cute building in Fantasy Land.

These are the reason I like Disney Land. It makes me happy, so I forget my trouble in daily life. "Three special mountains" are so exciting, foods are great, and all of environment is fantastic in Disney Land. Especially, I like around Cinderella castle. I can see many parade, fire works, shows, and so on. And then, I feel that I come to dream land there the best. I really want to go there again and again!!

I love Disney land!! ( WE 2-03 reright ver.)



How many times have you been to Disney Land?? I love Disney Land so I always go there when I visit my friend's house in Tokyo. I went there in last summer vacation. It is known to many people as a dream land. I agree with them because I am never tired of there. All of things in Disney Land makes me happy, and I can enjoy all day because of three good points about Disney Land. That is the reason why I like that place. Therefore, I want to explain the three points.

First, there are many attractions. It makes me exciting. I always get "fast pass" in order to ride popular attractions. You have to run to get it because fast pass is for popular attrction, and it will have gone soon!! Especially, the three best of mountains is so popular. In the "Sprush mountain", you can see many cute characters, but you can't be relived because it the boat that you ride fell down suddenly at last. "Space mountain" is speedy roller coaster. You are in the space, so you can see only so much stars. the coaster go around in the situation. You can't think ahead which direction the coaster go. And then, you can see all around of Disney Land when you ride "Big thunder mountain". The landscape is so nice both of day and night. You should ride this one the last.

There are not only roller coaster but also shows, ghost house, and so on. My favorite is "It's a small world". t is a good unknown spot. There are the people not so much. I mean you can ride it soon without waiting. And then, you can learn about culture in it. You travel all over the world, and the many dolls, that wear cultural uniform, play tradition instrument, sing a song. You can be relaxed in it!! Besides, it is inside, so ti is cool in summer and warm in winter. It is great situation, isn't it??

Second, I can eat many delicious food there. Do you know that there are two kinds of spot where you can eat? One is restaurant, the other is small shop. In the restaurant, you can eat many tradition food, Chinese, Italian, and so on. It is a little expensive, but you can feel rich. They are so delicious. You can eat with characters in some restaurant. In small shop, you can buy light meal. It is less expensive than in restaurant. It may be good idea that you call at many shops and eat many kinds of foods. I will give you some recommendations. When you want to eat at restaurant, how about "Polynesian Restaurant". There are Riro and Stich and they show you their performance.
And then, if you will go to eat snacks, you had better to eat churos. It is around 150 yen, and there are many kinds of tastes, like plane, honney, chocorate, sinamon, and so on. I can recommend you pop corns, capchinno taste!

Third, you can see many interesting, cute, and beautiful view there. Do you know about "Hide Mickey Mouse"? In the Disney Land, there are many Mickey you don't notice. For example, figure on the wall, shape of the tree, and so on. They control even shadow!! The shape of shadow is Mickey. I was surprised when I know the existence. I never find it, so I try to find it next time. And then, of course, there are many characters and they are so cute and funny. They sometime appear, so you should take pictures with them. You can see many characters also in the parade. I recommend you night parade. It is so beautiful. Many lights twinkle, and I admire it.

Why do you feel that Disney Land has fantastic view? Because there are no garages on the ground and all of flowers is not die. They care about detail point, so we can enjoy the environment. Besides, we can see many type of world in each area. I mean you can see traditional building in Western Land, cute building in Fantasy Land.

These are the reason I like Disney Land. It makes me happy, so I forget my trouble in daily life. Especially, I like around Cinderella castle. I can see many parade, fire works, shows, and so on. And then, I feel that I come to dream land there the best. I really want to go there again and again!!

Dream Land

My favorite place is "Disney Land". I went there many times, and I am never tired of it. I always feel that it is a dream land. I can enjoy so much. There are three reasons.

First, it has many attractions. it is not only roller corser. There are many attractions that we can learn about cross cultures. Foe example, "It's a small world" is one of them. There are many country's landscape. It makes me relax. If you like rollercorster, you should get in "The best of three roller coaster", Spraxh moutain, Big Thander mountain, and Space mountan. It is so exciting.

Secound, I can see many fantastic things there. Many characters appeared in the parade. The parade is changed each seasons. I like parade, so I want to see again and again. Especially the night parade is beautiful. Many lights twinkle and great music sounds. I always gaze it and take many pictures.

Finally, I can eat delicous food there. There are many kinds of food, snacks, drinks, traditional food, and so on. Certainly churos is the one of famous snacks in the Disney land. It is less expensive than othe foods and delicious.

Many Many Foooooood!!

My favorite activity is eating. Fall have many delicious food, for example, chestnuts, sweet potetos, muahrooms, and so on. I often eat sweet poteos in fall. When I was a child, I used to go harvest it with my friend. There are many vegitables, beans. we gat them and my friend's grandfathr cooked it. We could eat so frash vegitables, and delicous sweet potetos. Beside, we brought them to our house, and bake some little cakes. It is also fantastic!!

I could not go to harvesting nowadays, but I really want to go if I have a chance. I can feel happiness that I can eat delicious and safty food. We have many problems about food. We can't eat food safty. Eating is really really important and most of people must be like it. I hope we can eat all food with ease. Then we can enjoy fall more and more!!

How much knowledge about the earth do you have? There are many wonderful things on the earth, for example, countries, animals, archaeological creature, nature, and of course human beings! Most of people don't care that where they are, how they live, and so on. We have too less knowledge about the earth. I want to introduce this web site "National Geographic Kids". If you see this site, you can discover what you didn't know. There are many good points to learn in this web site. I found this web site because of my teacher. He recommend this site when I told him that I like geography. Since then, I see this web site most of every day. I really like this web site. Now, I want to start introducing it.

You will be moved by the wonderful landscape even if you are not interested in the history. If you like animals, you should try animal games. You will see cute characters.

There are particular explanations. I moved because these wonderful animals live somewhere on the earth. I have never seem wild elephants, cheetah, and so on. Do you know that elephants sometimes hug by wrapping their trunks together as greeting and affection? Also, there are some animals I've never heard. If you like animals, I recommend this relatives site, here. And then, some of strange plants, like a Venus flytrap, are on it. I have heard about it but I didn't think it is a such interesting plants.


Third, you will know about many human beings and cultures, politics, history and so on. How do the foreign people live in daily life? And then, how do the other countries people think about Japan? You can know about both of them. Therefore, we can reconfirm our own country and learn other countries. It is important for me because even if you have many knowledge about others, it is no meaning when you don't know about yours. After that, you should check the other countries. Each country has each good individuality. All of the people live hard. When you travel foreign countries, you'd better to check this web site. You can learn the country before the trip. It makes your trip comfortable!!



You know, you can get many kind of knowledge in this site. There are many fantastic things on the earth. After I see this site, I try to care about the earth. Although the earth is the planet that I have live, I was too unconcern for it until now. We have to cherish our planet because many living things, are on it. Therefore, we should know about it more and find what we can do for the earth. That is why I recommend to study about the earth.
