Final WEI

6.0. Suggestions for your peers and successors

• I can suggest “Yuka’s blog”. There are many attractions in her room. For example, links are very much!! Game, video bar and photo are characteristic. I want her teach me how to do that and make my room like her. Her blogs have pictures each other, and face images (ex. (-. -),★(^ω^)v ) are very cute and we can see her tension.

My best movie review is “Mrs Doubtfire”. I could enjoy watching this movie and I remember the story until now. I like comedy so I laughed very much. Moreover I like a father like him. He is very kind to his family and always thinks them. He tries to keep touching with them. This story is very good. I am glad to meet the movie.

On January, 14, 2008, I had a “Coming of Age Day” in Kumamoto Japan. In Japan, people whose age is 20 years old have a festival in winter. They are regarded adult in Japan. We wear kimono and attend a ceremony.
In this year, I became 20 years old, so I had the ceremony. After that, my boy friend gave me this bouquest!!!!!!!! I was very surprised!! I have yearned for it for a long time. Pink is my favorite color, he knows. He is the best my partner.：）：）：)♪♪♪

Essay 6

Essay 6 Lolo & Stitch

I am going to write about a movie, “Lilo & Stitch”. I have seen it once before, so it is twice for me. I like this movie character Stitch. In Japan, we can buy Stitch goods. There are many kinds of goods. Stitich is very famous in Japan.

First, I am going to introduce this story. There are a girl and her sister. They are too poor, so they were coming to a head to live separately. Then Stitch came to earth from a planet. First, he was violence very much. He broke many goods, so an old sister didn’t like him. However he changed his behave and thinking gradually.

Next, I am going to introduce characters in this movie. First, I will talk about stitch. His body is blue. He is not good at water because he sinks in water. He can speak. Next, Lilo is a girl. She doesn’t have friends because she roughhouses. She feels lonely, so she wants someone to talk with her. Next, Nina is a Lilo’s sister, she takes care her younger sister. She wants to live with her, but she doesn’t have work and is not good at taking care her. Next, Kobra is a welfare worker. He checks Nina’s house. He is a good man. Next, Janba is a Nina’s friend. Maybe he loves Nina I think. He looked for a job for Nina, so he is a good man.

Third, I want to write about my favorite character, Stitch. He is so cute!! For example, He can be a record player. He put his nail on a record, open his mouth and we can listen to music from there. Moreover, he became to be gentle. When Lilo was carried off by alien, he went to her to pick up her. When Stitch went back to his planet, he said thank to Lilo and other people. Finally, Stitch’s final greeting was so impression.

Finally, we can appreciate an importance of family and friends. “Ohana” means family in Hawaii. In this movie, Ohana is a keyword I think. We hope to pressure “Oahana”.

Essay 5

Essay 5 ~School of Rock~

I am going to write about a movie, “School of Rock”. I watched it yesterday. It is the first time to watch it. I had not heard this movie title, and I wasn’t interested in Rock. However, it was really fun.

First, I am going to introduce this story. There is a man. He loves Rock very much. However, he was quitted by his Rock band which he made. He wanted to Rock. Then, he caught a call. He got his work. He became a teacher at high level school. First of all, He didn’t teach students and slept in classes. However, he started to teach Rock. There were some problems, but finally they were succeeded.

Next, I am going to introduce characters in this movie. A main character is Dui. He is a fat and old man. I think he is not handsome. Anyway, he can’t live without Rock. Next, Rose is a principal of the school. She is slim and strict. She wears glasses. She always thinks her school on pressure, but in fact, she want to enjoy her school life and doesn’t like her how to teach them. 　　She was a unique woman in past. Next, Lorene is a piano player. He looks a Japanese and serious. Freddy is drummer. He looks cool and he is a main student in the class. Tomica is a chorus. She doesn’t have confidence in her fat body. So she said she couldn’t sing on a stage, but Dui made her trust herself. Her song is very nice.

　　Next, I am going to introduce my favorite character, Dui, of course. I think his ideas are unbelievable. He changed the students’ schedules all Rock and he made them students like Rock. It was very splendid. Moreover, his words, “Let’s Rock!!” was very impressive. He uses “rock” as verb. It tells me he really loves Rock. In addition, he changed a rule in the school. When curators knew a Dui was false, everyone was angly with him and school. However, the students came to Dui’s house and make him woke up and had rock stage. The curators and principal went to see the stage and enjoyed the concert. Everyone was happy. The concert was succeeded. I like the ending!! Dui talks to us in the movie!! I watched like this for the first time, it was very fun and unique!! I think you can enjoy this movie.

book review 2-13

California
Everyone has heard of Alcatraz and the golden gate bridge. Everyone has seen films from Hollywood. But what ease do we know about California?
This book looks at the cities and the mountains, at the sea and the deserts. It looks at the history of this exciting state, at the gold miners of 1849 and at san Francisco and its earthquakes.

I have never been there before, but I could learn about California. There are many beautiful places and natures. I want to go there because reading it. Then I want to get GOLD!!!!!! Shall we go there??
