OTO・NA・RI

Recently I watched a DVD at home. Its title is OTO・NA・RI. In OTO・NA・RI, Okada Junichi is Satoshi, a cameraman who usually took many pictures of a famous model. However, he wants to take pictures of scenery in his mind. Asou Kumiko plays Nanao. She aims to be a flower designer while she works part-time job as a clerk in a flower shop. In addition, she is going to France to study of flowers. They live next door to each other. The apartment’s wall is thin, so they can listen to sound of life. For example, humming, cutting vegetables and crying etc. They have never seen, but they are attracted each other. The main message of the movie is that it is important to act on your own mind and tell what you believe in your heart. I like this movie because sundry goods are very cute and this movie is pleasantly love story.

Giving advice

I’ll give advice to Keisuke.
Keisuke should study English more.
I have some advice about studying.
First, he listens to English communication radio
while he gets on train to go to school.
Second, he asks his teachers or his friend difficult questions.
Third, he makes word book, he can’t understand or memorize meaning.
Last, he takes a part time job which he can use English.
For example, it is a hotel and restaurant.
He convinces his parents of going abroad
through showing his industrious behavior.

Life at KGU

Part Time Job

I have a part time job and I have gone on it for one year and half.
I work to buy my commuter’s pass,
new clothes and eat dinner with my friends and so on.
I work at UNIQLO near my house.
This job is very interesting and good hourly wage.
I was promoted next rank in this summer,
so my hourly wage was gone up +20yen.
Maybe I continue this job until I graduate kgu.
In addition, I try to advance to more high rank at this job.

3 things that upset me

I have 3 things that upset me.
First is the train arriving late, because my schedule is changed by it.
I often use JR line and JR sometime is late, so I use subway to go to school recently.
Second is cockroach, because it is fast and strange to move.
I had never seen it at my house, so it was good.
I hate it the best in the world.
Last is when it is rain, people walk with a swing of their arms having the umbrella.
Because I can’t walk fast and it is dangerous for me to hit the end of umbrella.

Technology

I enjoy using technology.
I use digital camera the most.
Recently, I bought a new digital camera.
I had used a very old digital camera until I bought a new one,

so I didn’t know that newest cameras are a lot of great function.
For example, I can take movies by full high-definition television system,

the digital camera has a telephoto lens that magnifies 15,

and I can take panoramic photographs etc.
Ultimately, I bought a digital camera made by fuji film.
I hate using new computer,

because it is difficult for me to use new functions and learn them.

My Summer Vacation

I took three trips in this summer vacation.
In the three trips, the most interesting is Kyoto trip.
I went to Kyoto with my friends on August 1st.
Then, everyone wore yukata, there were colorful and beautiful.
I ate the pasta made by the tea and green tea parfait at Kawaramachi.
Every food was very delicious, because I like food cooked by powdered green tea.
That’s why I wanted to go there again.
When I went to Ginkaku, I experienced funny thing there.
My friends and I, wearing yukata, looked around Ginkaku, and many foreigners took some our photos.
It was funny, but I got nervous a little.

Summer Plan

I will go to trip three times in this summer vacation.
First, I'm going to go to Kyusyu to practice badminton for 9days by ferry.
Then, I heard my senior that when we take ferry, we can watch beautiful stars.
I'm looking forward to watching them and earting delicious food in Kyusyu.
Second, I will go camping in Tanba with my friends.
We can stay tent like log house and cook anything there.
I also may watch shooting stars there.
This camp, I'll go with many friends,so I think that I take a lot of pictures.
Third, I'm going to go to Tokyo Disney Land with my friend and my seniors.
Before, I went there with friends of high school days.
It was first time for me,so I had very good time.
I was happy and I want to come here again.
That's why I'll go many place,so I have to do a lot of part time jobs in this summer.

Sports

I have played badminton
since I was junior high school students.
I love badminton, so I continue to play badminton in KGU now.
It is important for me to play badminton,
because I enjoy my life by badminton.
For example, I can get very nice friends, seniors and precious person.
Moreover, I can learn polite behavior, delicacy, greeting and so on.
I think that we can be taught these things by any sport (club activity).
However, I couldn’t meet some wonderful friends
if it was except badminton.
I thank past me for choosing badminton

Trip

I have visited many places in Japan.
For example, Hokkaido, Chiba, Niigata, Nagano, Gifu, Aichi, Ishikawa, Kinki-area, Kochi and Fukuoka.
My best place to trip is Fukuoka, because it was first to go to Kyusyu-area.
I went there with my friend of university and my senior of university.
Our purpose was to eat delicious food.
For example, they are chinese noodle of Hakata, mentaiko and fried chikens of local.
I could eat a lot of food, and they were very delicious.
I had very good time in Fukuoka, so I recommend to go to Kyusyu to trip!!

Present

Now I belong to badminton circle “SORANOTSUBASA”,
and there are 11 girls of the same grade in this club.

Then we decided to send each of them a present
when someone comes 20th birth day.
Its present is badminton uniform,
because we belong to badminton circle and we can wear it many times.

9 days ago, we gave this present to my friend.
She had known that
she could get her uniform as birthday present (because we decided all girls).
However, she couldn’t see what color and pattern,
so she was delighted to see her present.
We also felt happy then.

My GW

My Golden Week holidays of this year were very busy!
Because I had part-time jobs for 4 days.
The 3rd was holiday but I had English reading class.
So I didn't have my free time and I couldn't go anywhere.
However, I had very happy event for me on Monday (after class).
I could have met my senior of badminton circle since he has graduated.
We went to the restaurant which was "Satoyama dining" in Hankyu terminal bills.
Then, we talked about badminton circle, our daily life and jobs.
I had good time there.
My GW was very hard, but I had some good.

My Best Friend

My friend is Maki. I met her when I was a high school student. Maki and I belonged to same badminton club in our high school and we also belong to same class for 2 years. So I talked with her a lot and we went to many place together. Moreover, we practiced badminton lot to improve each other. Our club has 8 people who are same grade, but she is my best friend.

Now, we go to different university. However, both Maki and I belong to badminton circle which is associated with 6 universities (Kansai Uni, Ryukoku Uni, Ritsumeikan Uni, Kobe Uni, Doshisya Uni, Kwansei Uni) in each university. So I can often meet her.
