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!!

Commonsense Test.

Today, I had a meeting in lunch time. The exchanged students had to go the meeting. The purpose of meeting was learning about test for a job. I will go abroad next week, so I can't prepare for the test. After coming back to Kumamoto, I will have to take many test for jobs. However, if I didn't enough practice and prepare, I could not pass the test. I have to do it since now, so I decided to take the lesson.

Today, we did the pre-test about common sense. I think it was too difficult for me. It was about politics, history, and geography. I am not good at them, especially politics. I could not answer most of the questions about politics. I know it is important. I try to read newspaper every day...

Next time, we will take the test like that again. The theme wll be politics. I have to check important events, person, and so on by next Tuseday. It will be useful for my future, so I will do my best.

Writing assignment 2-01 rewritten: Let's study our earth!!

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.


First of all, you can check your geographic skill. You can know where the country is and many trivia about the country through the game. I recommend you one game, "Geo Spy". You may be know many countries name, but do you know where they are? You should click the right place of the country in this game. If you chose wrong place, this game give us the answer, so you can learn about it easily. Of course, I play this game many times. I can not get high score now, but I want to keep trying. Anyway, this site has a lot of games. More games you try, more knowledge you can get. Besides, you can see many archaeological things on 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.



Second, you can watch many animals on this site such as penguins, dolphins, lions, pandas and so on. Of course, there are many pictures, movies, games about animals. 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.

Career Design Class

Today, I had a supplementary lecture in second and third period. The class was career design class. I took the class because I thought I had to consider well about my future. I can't image my future now because I don't know "getting the job" well. How should I write resume, care in interview test, and so on. Besides I have to know the circumstance of society. Therefore I decided to take this class.

This time, the theme of the class was self-understanding. I thought what I am good at, I am working on in my university life, and I will do after ten years. It was more difficult work than I thought. I couldn't answer those questions. However, as I wrote down what I did in the past, I found my new characteristics. I have studied English for a long time, and I really like it. I can enjoy my unversity life, and make many friends through studying English. Also I like people. I like to talk, hang out with people.

I learn self-understanding is important to think my futer. I can know what I need to do for the future by understanding my self well. I also could find what I want to do. I want to use my English skill, and cantact with many people. Therefore, I have to improve my English and communication skills in my university life.

Reeeeading!!

Today, I had TOEFL class. Today, I learned how to answer the reading section effectively. Nowadays, my reading score is not good. So, I think about what I should do.

Last time, I could get score in the listening section as good as grammar section. I was not good at listening before. However, I practiced. I often listened to English music, stories, and talked with exchanged students. My teachers gave me some advices and I obeyed it. That is why I could improve my listening skill.

Therefore, I have to read a lot of sentences. I read many books written in English, but they were only novels. That is not enough. I have to read more difficult one, for example, newspaper, reports, and so on. However, what are assignments, what are classes, I don't have any times I can read it. At least, I will read newspaper written in English at the library.

English thesis class

Yesterday, I had a Mr, Tomei's class after school. I learned how to write official assignment. We practiced it by writing self introduction. We had to write it as handing out to teacher. I could write many sentences, but it was not official. First, I didn't write names, class name, date and receiver's name. I should have written them top of the paper. Second, I had to write it with double spaces. It was the first day, so we didn't care about our grammer, but maybe my grammer should improve. There are many things that I should learn before going abroad.
In any case, I have to improve my English skill, and prepare getting job because I can not do it next year. I will be busy, but I'll just do it.
