the aim of new school term

        In this spring vacation, I establish the aim of new school term. There are bouts many aspect of myself. First, it is about studying. Last year, I think that I didn't prepare for classes perfectly. Especially, I didn't study perfectly before reading class. In addition, once in a whole classes I was little sleepy, so I need to sleep enough every night. Then, it is about helping my parents. Both my father and mother have each work, so they can’t do housework sometime. Therefore, I need to do housework as much as possible, for example washing clothes, washing plates, cleaning, and making dishes. Especially, I want to make dishes because I like cooking very much. Next, it is about waking up early because I don’t want to be late for class. Actually, I could it every day when I was high school and junior high school student, but I started part time job at evening last year, so I can’t it now. Maybe it will be difficult for me but I need to go to bed early time after I back to home. 

The host family letter

Dear host family,

      Hey! My name is Momoko. I am a KGU student in japan. I’m really looking forward to meeting you. In this time, I want to introduce about me and know about you, so I wrote this letter.

      Now, in japan, it is very cold, but I like this season because I can celebrate Christmas day and New Year’s Day. In this year, I spent Christmas day with my friends and family.

 First, I went to a restaurant and had a buffet lunch with my friends. I enjoy eating many kinds of dishes. I especially enjoy cooking waffles, but I think I am not good at cooking it, so I want you to teach me how to cook delicious waffles.

     After that, I went to my friend’s house by car. Of cause, I can’t drive a car, so my friend drives. I knew that she had a driver’s license, but I was surprised when she drives a car! By the way, how old is that people can start getting a driver’s license in Australia? Is it uncomfortable that not having a driver’s license?

     After that, I watched a movie called “Haul’s moving castle” at her home. I like movies very much. In japan, Ghibli movies are very famous. What movie is famous in Australia?

     Finally, I went a restaurant to buy a Christmas cake. I chose a chocolate cake because my brother likes chocolate cake very much. I ate it with my family.

I have an older sister and younger brother. My sister is a Kumamoto University student. She is very smart, so I am helped by her many times, moreover she is very gentle. However, she is going to leave Kumamoto for Tokyo on April, so I am very sad.

      My brother is a junior high school student. He is very interested in space science, so he has many books about it.

      The other day, I was given a Christmas present by my father. It was coconut oil which I wanted to have before, so I was very glad. It is very good for the human body, so this oil is very popular. I think I am a little bit of health nerd. What is more, my birthday is the same as Ieyasu Tokugawa’s birthday who was also a health nerd too, but actually, I can’t develop a healthy body in spite of having some knowledge about health.

Therefore, I want you to give me advice.

Recently, I’m interested in Japanese dishes because they are very good for health. They were registered as an Intangible culture heritage. In addition, I want to be a person who can convey Japanese culture in foreign countries in my future.

My mother let me study many Japanese cultural activities, so I can play the koto and do Japanese calligraphy, flower arrangement, tea ceremony, and dancing. In this sense, I am deeply grateful to my parents. However, I need to get high English skill, so I want to talk with you a lot of the time even if I can’t speak English closing at first.

Important News stories of 2014

I think it is big news story of 2014 that Mr.Nonomura who is a politician in Hyougo prefecture cried in front of media camera. In my opinion, it is not good action. Japanese children were very surprised when they watch TV too. What is more, they maybe think that he is a shameful adult. I think that baby cry hard is not bad thing, but if you can explain your opinion and understand something, you should   calm down. And also, my father said that you should hide your motion in front of people so I believe that if you are adult people, you should endure your emotion. However, despite I think so, I can’t control my emotion yet, for example, when I work at part-time job I can’t control my expression when I have nerves feeling. Therefore, I have to have very strong heart in order to control my emotion because only opening my emotion cannot solve some problems in social world.

An invention that has had a big impact on society

I think that the invention of car is bad effect for many people and all over the world people should change their life with using car a lot of times. I have two most reasons. First of all, using a car is bad for many humans healthy because maybe they don’t want to walk or using a bicycle. Therefore they don’t have excising habit. Moreover, finally, many people have serious disease. In my opinion, modern people tend to doing many things early, so they tend to choose using cars or eating first food. I believe that people should not use car many times in order to stay their life healthy.  Next, using a car is bad effect for the earth. It is very bad for natural environment. Recently, much abnormal weather happened in many countries. For example, in japan, over hot weather and happening tornado and acid rain, water pollution and so on. I think that you should do good things for the earth for future generations.

My plans for next year and the future

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　I want to do many things while I am a second grade college student. First, I want to experience many kind of part time job. For example, clerical work or TV assistant work, teaching works and so on. I think I need to experience many things to be a good human. Sound, I want to go foreign country because I had never been to abroad country. Especially, I want to go US because I can enjoy both naturally place and urbane, moreover, I can enjoy Harry Potter’s term park. Therefore, I need much money, so I am going to have part time job for a lot of time. However, on the other hand, I have to study English more and more because I want to have a job with English skill in my future, so I want to remember a lot of English words and read English sentence early, speak English fluency to talk with exchange student more. I want to be good at English.

Holidays and Celebrations

Let me introduce about Christmas days and my happy birthday. I spend good Christmas time with my friends. I visited my friend's home and I watched movie which was "hauru no ugoku siro”. It was very beautiful and my heart was moved. Before I visit her home, I go to the restaurant which applies the Buffet. It was very delicious. Especially, I enjoyed cooking waffle. And then, I bought a chocolate cake at my work shop, and I eat it with my family. The next day, my father gave me a Christmas present. It was coconuts oil which I wanted to have before. In my birthday, December 26^th, I went to karaoke with my friends, and I and my friend singed many song for long time. I like to sing a song very much. And then, I eat pizza with my family. Moreover, I was given many presents which was glove and book. I never forget these days and appreciate them.

Portable Technology

.I prefer to use note personal computer than mobile phone. I have two most reasons. First, because when I an using mobile phone, my neck or body usually have awful  , but when I am using the personal computer,　my neck or body  usually have an awful because it is not necessary to look at below.　Then, personal computer has many functions. For example, wide screen and key board that is useful for typing early, many outlets which can use many USB.  Moreover, personal computer can use CD or DVD, so you can listen to the music or watch movies, and then, you can make original CD or DVD. That is wonderful! However, actually, I don’t like using portable technology because sometime it makes people’s life badly, for example, using many SNS make people’s communication decline, and many people’ s eyesight is made fail little by little. Recently, it is increasing serious problem of bulling on SNS. Therefore, portable technology is very wonderful, but on the other hand it makes people’s life badly.
