Writing I・II

I learned about English grammars in Writing I・II.
First,I did not have the habit of use paragraphs when I write essay or story. So now, I always put some paragraphs. Then, I learned about concluding sentence and introduction sentence. I did not know them by my teacher told us about them. I think using them is better essay or story than not using them.(68 words)

golden week

How was your Golden week? Was it fun?? My boyfriend lives in Saitama to work at Tokyo, so he came back to Kumamoto only during the Golden week. I spend the time with him^^ I went to flower garden in Kuju, Oita on May 3rd. In fact, I planed to go to the African safari park in Yufuin, Oita with my boyfriend. But the African safari park is so far from Kumamoto city. In addition, the way to Yrufuin from Kumamoto city during the Golden week is really crowded!! It was horrible>< Some couples say’ we sometimes quarrel with each other when we are in the traffic jam’. I could understand the reason for the first time in my life. We arrived at flower garden at 11 a.m. Finally, it took about three hours. I have long wished for seeing a poppy garden, so I wanted to visit there. I am pleased about seeing a nice poppy garden!! I ate a rose flavor ice-cream cone for my first time! It was sooo delicious! I think If you have never eaten it, you have to eat it! After we went to flower garden, we held a barbecue party at my boyfriend’s home with his friends, family and so on. It was really fun! I talked a lot with other people and ate a lot of corns, meat, vegetables^^ I had a wonderful holidays!!(232 words)

a marvelous woman

I had a part-time job last weekends. On Saturday, I did not have any particular accidents. But I had an accident on Sunday. Our book store is very busy every weekend especially, on Sundays. Last Sunday was very busy as usual, so I was really hasty. Then, an accident happened! First, a woman asked me about do we have a book which she wants. So, I searched for the book she wants. As a result, I could find the very book. But, during I was handled to order the book, a PC became not working!!! I wanted to use other PC in the book store, but I could not to do that because all other PCs ware used by shop clerks. Finally, I could use other PC, but I made to wait a woman for 30 minutes!!! I was so sorry did that to a woman… But she had a tender heart, she was not angry about that. I think she was a marvelous woman!! (165 words)

'NAUGHTY CHILDREN'

I borrowed ‘Naughty Children’ from KGU liberally. I made a bad choice because this book is also too short to write a review like a book that I borrowed before><

One day, two children came to the house with their parent. Children look really naughty, and sure expected they did some mischief. They climbed on the furniture, curtains, tree, and jumped on the sofa, bed, flowers!! The house was in a mess! That was awful!!!! Then, Biff had an idea that Biff gave a ladder and a log to them to play. So, they climbed the ladder and jumped on the log^^ They are relieved to see that. Then naughty children went back their home. Everyone was happy. (118 words)
