Super Christmas party

I went to a Christmas party with my friends Mai, Tomoko, Mayu, Misato, Midori and Chisako. We had the party in the restaurant named Covent Garden in the downtown. The dishes were really good and tasty for us. And the restaurant was really crowded by many people, so it is a little bit noisy.

In addition, we exchange the presents what we bought ourselves less than 500 yen. I bought the Haramaki for it. I think that getting cold the belly is really bad thing for all girls. So I decided to present it to a friend of seven friends. Then we started to hand over to next to person with singing Christmas song. After we finished singing, we got the present each other from a friend. I got a lovely ring from Misato. I really love it!!

I had a precious time there with my friends^^! (147 words)

BD4:＊The Baby Day＊

I read ‘The Baby Day’. Main characters are Billy has a baby sister, his sister Jasmine and Clare. Clare seems clever and different. All of her classmates admire her very much. And then, she always thinks her old school and teacher were best in the world. She throws her weight about among her classmates about her past. So I think classmates were overpowered by her attitude.

Then their teacher asked Billy to study about baby with his classmates. He really puzzled about it. But when he asked about it his mother, in his surprised, she agreed about it really gladly!! So The Baby Day was held at his school.

In the class, everyone is going to measure Billy’s baby, to paint her and so on. But Jasmine played herself here and there. So the plans came to nothing at all. Finally, she began to play with the paintbrush and toddled around the room. Even the clever girl Clare was thrown into confusion and laughed very much.
Finally, all of the classmates warm up to each other.

In my opinion, she wanted to warm up to other classmates but she is not obedient. So she could not express her feelings well. Then, Billy’s younger sister Jasmine became a good clue for Clare. (211 words)

BR3:＊The Little Giraffe＊

I read ' The Little Giraffe'. The main characters are a little giraffe and rhinoceros, Rhino. A little giraffe is the first giraffe in the world. The difference between now and long time ago is the length of giraffe's neck. Giraffe in this story is really shorter than now. Giraffe and Rhino are really good friends and live in East Africa. It is really hard to get their food for them. So they asked the wise man to get some advises. He said 'Please come here again tomorrow and I will give some advises to you.' Then, a little giraffe went there again but only him. The wise man prepared a magic drink for them. But Rhino did not come there, so a little giraffe drink it all. To him great surprise, his neck became soooo long!!! So, he can eat upper leaves that he could not reach before. Finally, Rhino could not drink a magic drink, so he is still angry now.

I heard that the giraffes's neck were short. But I did not know this story. This story is really cute and interesting. (185 words)

I will introduce my pretty friend. Her name is Hana. She is only 1 year old and 2 months. Everyone call her 'Hana-chan.' My English conversation school's teachers are her parents, Barry and Misa. Hana's father is from London and mother is Japanese, so she is a child of mixed parentage of British and Japanese. She has really cute face and voice.

the christmas lights

I went to Saisyunkan to see the Christmas lights with my club members. This activity was last one in this year. Four people of my club drive their car and another people rode on their car. The way of going there was really smooth, but in front of the entrance was really crowded and we had to wait to enter for about 30 minutes. While we waited, we enjoyed even bored time for example, talking, singing and so on! The Christmas lights were really beautiful and amazing!!! I saw them last year, but I think this year's is more beautiful than last one. There were dolphins, a cute house, stars, a big pink tunnel and so on! We were really exited and enjoyed them very much. After took off cars, we took the pictures with the Christmas lights. I had a super time with my club member. I am looking forward to enjoy the next activity last year!! (158 words)

Essay 2-03b: My Language History

We can learn a lot of languages in our life. The main reason of studying languages for me is to live a full life. Because I think talk with people who speak other language is able to know a lot of opinions. In addition, I can go through some experiences to go abroad. So I want to learn many languages which I am interested in. I have been interested in English till now. In addition, I started learn Spanish from when I enter this university. So I am studying three languages included in my mother tongue Japanese. First, I will talk about my future plan of my language.

My dream is to become a Japanese teacher overseas and I want to teach people there about Japanese culture, history, habits and so on. So, to my dream come true, I have to improve my English skill than now. For example, speaking, writing, and listening skills. And then, to improve my English skills, I want to talk with people who speak English as a mother tongue, of course, I think to talk with good English　speaker is also good for me. In addition, I am planning to go abroad and study some languages until I am a college student as an exchange student. That experience will be good experience for me. Next, I will write about my past history of language.

I started to learn English at the cram school when I was 12 years old. I began to study English from the beginning, for example, greetings and alphabet and so on. After I entered junior high school, I study English standard. My junior high school English teacher was great person. His teaching English was always easy to understand. I think that is the very reason which I love English even now.

In addition, I started to study Spanish when I entered KGU. We have to choose second language apart from English. I was really irresolute about my choice of the second language. Finally, I decided to learn Spanish because people who speak Spanish is the second most in the world. When I heard it, I was really surprised. So I think Spanish is the most useful language when I travel the foreign countries.

But learning Spanish has some troubles. For example, Spanish words have gender. That point is different between Spanish and English. So I was at a loss which learning that type language is first time for me. I think learning new language became good stimulus for me. However, I have been studying Spanish for 2 years, so I can understand the Spanish grammar a little now. My aim of study Spanish is to study more natural Spanish and travel to Spain.


Then, I am studying two languages now. In most of the classes, my teachers give us some homework every class. Of course I do it every time, but I do not study English and Spanish in the other time. So I need to study languages to improve my language skill out of the class. Through studying languages out of the class, I think my skill is improver than now. In my opinion, it is really good point to study languages. (532 words)
