'But we are late, Sara answers. "When's our bus?'
"At one o'clock7, Jessica says. "We can get a taxi from the airport to the bus station'
At the airport, the girl look for a taxi. ' Look!' Jessica says. ' That boy's waiting to us!
'Excuse me!' Are you late? ' the boy calls to them. ' Do you want this taxi?' the girls answer. 'To the bus station, Please 'Sarah says to the diver. She smiles at the bus and they drive away. The taxi stops at the bus station. Suddenly, Jessica sees a mobile phone on the taxi floor, ' Is that your mobile phone? ' She asks the driver. He looks at it. 'No, ' he answers. 'It's the boy's mobile.' Sarah takes it. 'Perhaps I can find his address', She says, Yes!
His name's Michael. Tomorrow he's at Ninety Mile beach. We can give it to him there.

The girls wait at Ninety Mile Beach. They eat and watch the buses. The buses aren't driving on a road-they are driving on the long beach.' Look for Michael!' Jessica says. But Sarah is looking at the sea. Suddenly, Jessica sees him. 'He's on that bus!' says.

Jessica and Sarah are very unhappy. They can't find Michael and they can't find Sarah's bag. Sarah has no money now. 'Sorry', Jessica says. ' But I have got some money -and we have got tickets for the Glow-worm Caves.'
'OK, Let's go there tomorrow', Sarah says. 'Michael is going too.We can look for him there.'
The girls go on a boat into the dark cave . The lights from the glow-worms are very beautiful and it is very quiet. Suddenly, there is beep from Michael's mobile. The lights go dark. The people in the boat are angry. 'No mobiles!' they say.

This is the story of Hapu . He lives in Ancient Egypt at the time of Queen Cleopatra. His father, Bak, has a small factory. He makes gold tables and chairs. Hapu helps him. He is a ‘fireboy’. Every day he pushes a long handle up down. The work is hot and very hard.
But what can he and his father do? They are poor people. They need to make money.
Every evening they sit beside the Nile. Bal talks to his son about the factory, tomorrow’swork-everything. “one day we are going to be very rich,” he tells Hapu.” Are we?” The fireboy looks into his father’s tired eyes. “Yes”. Bak smiles. “I don’t know how and I don’t know when, but we are.” Then he stands up. “ Come on”, he says. “ It’s late. Let’s go home”. Three days lather Hape and Bak are making a table. It is very hot in the room. Suddenly Bak stops work. “ What is it, father?” Hapu asks. Is something wrong?
“ I don’t know,” Bak answers. He closes his eyes. Bak becomes sick.

Ont he weekends, Hal meets Sophie. Hal wants to marry her soon. This is Tim Hankins. Tim is a famous actor. 'I know that man,' people think, when they see Tim. They stare at him in the street. Sometimes they run after him. Tim does not have normal life and he is unhappy. For his next movie, Tim wears glasses. His face is very different in glasses. It is not Tim Hawkins' face and many people do not recognize him. Now Tim wants to wear glasses all the time.
Once morning, Hal gets up 'Today isn't different from yesterday to the day before that! Hal thinks. Then he remembers something . In two days, he must marry Sophie. He feels nervous.

Kumamoto Zoo (By Yuuki)
Have you ever been to Kumamoto zoo? There is a Kumamoto zoo in Kumamoto city. When you go to there, you may utilize tram cars or buses. There are many precious animals in this zoo. Monkeys, giraffes, and hippopotamus and so on. In particular, many families come here when interesting events are held. My favorite an event is cosmos festival. This festival is held in every autumn, and flowerbeds of zoo are covered with colorful and pretty cosmoses. If you like cosmoses, please try to go to zoo in autumn. You'll be able to watch nice cosmoses! Also, I'll recommend to go to Kumamoto zoo if you've never been to there. You can watch many animals and beautiful flowers!

Green Land　(by Manami)
Green Land is located in Arao City. It is a famous and popular theme park in Kumamoto. You can enjoy many rides there. If you love roller coasters, I recommend you to ride Milky Way. If you are brave, you should try to ride it by standing up. There are some other roller coasters that make you screem! I recommend Nio, Megaton, Viking and Spin Mouse! If you want to get scared, you should go to haunted houses! There are three haunted houses in Green Land. You can enjoy going there with your friends or your boyfriend or girlfriend.

Tamana is one of a famous hot springs in Kumamoto. There is a new hot spring facility called "Tsukasa no yu." In there, you can enjoy taking hot springs, eat various foods and get a massage. Many visitors take a walk in the city wearing yukata after taking hot springs. Foot bath is very popular. It is located in Ryuugaji Park. You can use there for free. Many people visit there every day.

If you like nature, you should go to Kikuchi Valley! You can take a walk along the river and enjoy the view. Air is so clear and you will feel relaxed. Water is very cool so you can enjoy playing with it in summer. You can enjoy to see colored leaves in fall. Leaves are red, orange, and yellow. They are very pretty. You can eat fresh yamame there.

Otachimisaki Park (By Manami)

I watched “Lilo and stitch”, I have watched series of “Lilo and stitch” on Disney channel many time. I really like Stitch. I think that I have knowledge of “Lilo and Stitch a lot. In fact, I have never watched this movie before, so this time I tried to watch this movie.

AT first, I’ll introduce about character of “Lilo and Stich”. I thought that

Lilo is little blue monster, However Lilo is a little girl and 5 years old. She live inHawaiian island of Kauaʻi with her sister. I think Lilo is really strange girl.

Her old sister is Nani, She loves Lilo very much. But She has to work to their life. Their parents died because of car accident. She often get angry Lilo, because Lilo don’t obey Nani’s advice.

Stitch is little blue alien, Dr. Jumba Jookiba made it. Dr. Jumba Jookiba is an extra-terrestrial mad scientist.

From now, I will explain this story, at one planet took place judgment, Dr. Jumba　made many ailian. So, he was judged, he said that Number 626(stitch) was made to destroy many things, and he didn’t have good heart. So, the leader decided that Dr. Jumba go to jail and Number 626 do punish. However Number 626 could do prison breaking and he ride on space machine. But, it was broken and he dropped in Hawaii of earth.

Other way, Lilo is little funny girl, so she doesn’t have friends, she is lonely. Social worker came and said Nani that You should put in your sister our shelter, it is good idea for you and your sister, but Nani didn’t do that. He said that if something happen, I will come your house to keep your sister.

She hopes for a friend ever. Nani decided that they’ll keep dog from animal shelter.

At the Animal shelter, Lilo was finding a good dog for her, and she found a strange dog. He is little, blue and can speak words little. The dog hugs Lilo, so she chouse this dog,

But, shelter’s person didn’t recommend the dog, but Lilo liked him. She named him “Stitch”.

Dr. Jumpa and Agent Pleakley also went to Hawaiian island of Kauaʻi to catch Number 626.

Lilo took him her home, Lilo was really happy. However Stitch created a ruckus, and he destroyed Lilo’s home.

Next day, Nani thought that this dog was not good, so it was not good idea for us, and she decided that stitch get out. But Lilo said that Stitch was already one of the our family, we are “ohana”, “ohana” meaning family.

At first, Stitch didn’t like her and He would do something. However, Stitch took to Lilo and Nani.

One day, They enjoyed surfing and their time, but while they surfing, some one catch their foot and they was dropped in the sea.

Then, social worker came and he said that he will keep Lilo.

Next day, Social worker picked up Lilo, Nani was very sad. However, she went away his car and met stitch.

Then, Captain Gantu came and he caught Lilo and Stitch. Stitch could went away from box. And, Stitch and Nani try to help her. Finally, They could help Lilo, They sticked to live with Stitch!

I took to Stitch more! I have never seen this movie, before I watched this movie this is not interesting and boring, this was my image. However this is really exciting movie for me. I and my friends love Stitch. And I am really happy because Stitch can find “Ohane”. I want to go to Hawaii to meet Stitch someday!!! He is really cute and strong. Lilo is also cute girl and kind.

I want to go to Minnesota nest year summer vacation. However, I don’t have much money to go to travel. You know, I went to Minnesota past this summer vacation my host family was really kind and funny. I enjoyed chatting with them everyday; this is really nice experience for me. Every Sunday we went to church, I am not Christian so I have never been to there before. It was very interesting for me, because I had image for Christian church, it is very quiet. However there was really fun, because there is Band music. I was really surprised with that. And, I learned many things about that. So, I decided that when I went to Kumamoto I will study about Christ and Baddish.

But now, I have no time to study about that, and if I go to Minnesota, I need much money for travel. So, I decided that I will save money this winter vacation.

During stay in Minnesota, my host father said that if you want to come back Minnesota, You don’t need pay money for hotel, you can stay our house. I was really glade and I though I have to improve my English to go to Minnesota by my self.

Sometimes, I felt that my English was not connect with my mind, because of I have to compromise what you want to say, so I thought this mean doesn’t express my mind, and do they can understand my mind? I always thought about it. When I was surprised about something, and say “I was really surprised” in English. However I felt it does not express my mind, it mean English can’t express my mind truly, because of my English is different from my mind. Perhaps, I thought that Country language is best way to explain my mind. I can’t explain my mind in English, and my English is not good enough, so Understanding is really hard for me, but I really want to become to know their mind, and also speak my mind in English. I think my goal is to speak satisfy English. I know it is really hard. I have to study English very hard! It is sort cut to arrive my goal.

Dewey Finn is singer and guitarist member of rock band, He really loves Rock!! But his band member thought his performance is not cool and strange. Their audience also thought that. One day He lay off his band, and He tried to find new member of rock.

He lived with his friend Ned Schneebly and his girlfriends. However Dewey don’t pay rent, so Ned’s girlfriend said that if you don’t pay money, you can’t live here anymore.

During their music class, Dewey saw it, He knew that they can play instrument very well. He’s just　popped new a good idea in his head. He made a group in his class student. Their group name is “ School of Rock”.

However, student thought why have to us? So, Dewey said this is report for class! It was not true, but student believed it, and They practiced instrument very hard. And, They gradually took to Rock!! Dewey and students were socialize each other.

He found student’s good point and he admired them. I thought student is little lonely, because their parent always said that “ you have to do that”. So, They don’t enjoy their school life.

Few days later, student’s parents, teacher and student got to know, he wasn’t Ned Schneebly. They were really angry, and Dewey depressed.

But next day, They have a Band Music Battle. Dewey gave up attend the contest.

Then, student took him to there, and they wanted to attend the contest.

However, I don't know about her country, I have never heard her language. She is only exchange student from Vietnam. She can't use her language, it is kind of sad. When I have time, I will check on about her country. I want to know about her country!! I hope that she will have a good time in Kumamoto.

2007-11-05T18:34:00.000+09:00

Did you watch High school Musical 2??
This is my favorite movie, of course I already have watched HSM!!

During my driving, I always listen this CD! My favorite song is Fabulous! Ashley Tisdale sung!

Movie-Review 2-03

Romeo and Juliet

I have watched other this one movie on English literature class, so I had knew this story. I thought this movie is same story. But this is modern movie. At first I had mistake and I thought is this other one?? But I didn’t have mistake. I will introduce about this movie.

Romeo is only son of Montague; Juliet is only daughter of Capulet. Montague and Capulet have been fighting since long time ago.

Romeo was fall in love the girl, but she didn’t like him. He hurt his mind, but one day Romeo and his friends went to Capulet’s house to attend party. Then Romeo met beautiful girl who is Juliet. She is very beautiful, and they were fall in love each other. But Juliet’s mother recommend good guy, and she said he wants to marry you. But Juliet didn’t want to do that.

At party’s night later, Romeo went to Juliet’s house to see her. Incidentally, she went out her room and found him. She was little afraid about this love only one day. Romeo promised we will marry tomorrow.

Tomorrow’s morning, Romeo said pastor that I will marry with Capulet’s daughter. Pastor was surprised, but he thought Montague and Capulet will be friendly by their marriage. Pastor agreed his idea.

Romeo and Juliet married at the church silently, they are very very happy.

After, his best friend was fighting with Capulet’s nephew. Romeo didn’t fight with Capulet anymore, so he stopped the fight. But then, Capulet’s nephew killed his best friend, Romeo was very angry, he killed Capulet’s nephew.

City’s police said that Banish Romeo!!! If he come back here, we’ll kill Romeo!! Romeo thought I can’t see Juliet anymore; I don’t want to leave from her. Juliet also very sad!!

After that, Juliet’s father order to Juliet, You have to marry Paris who is her fiancé.

Romeo went out his city. But she doesn’t want to do that. She talked pastor. And, she said if I can’t marry Romeo, I will kill by myself. Pastor had dangerous idea, and if she does, Romeo and Juliet can marry. So Juliet decided to do. And Pastor send their plan for Romeo.

This plan, Juliet take a medicine which is kind of sleeping pill. If she take this medicine she will sleep very deep, and like crops. And her family will think Juliet die. She will become free from her family. She did, marriage day, her family thought she died. At, her funeral, Romeo’s friend saw the funeral ceremony. He thought Juliet died, and I have to tell Romeo. Romeo’s friend told that. Actually, Romeo didn’t notice pastor’s letter. He believed that Juliet died. He was really sad, and he killed by myself. After that Juliet woke up, she noticed Romeo died. She was really sad, she also kill by her self.

This literature is very famous all over the world. I think this is really nice one.

And this is very sad Story. But I think I didn’t like this movie, because This is different　 from my image. But It was very good one.

My holiday.

2007-11-05T10:05:00.000+09:00

I had holiday 5 days. During my holiday, I have to help my parents shop and take care my dogs. and, I have many homework, I will finish my homework while my holiday. But I didn't. I regret spending time. I want to have holiday more and more.
When I helped shop, our customer came, She is studying Chinese and probably she is 30 years old, She know my major is English and I went to Minnesota for 1 month. so She thought Yumi can speak English very well. And She asked me, Please speak English, I want to listen Native pronunciation.
so, I said that I am so sorry,I can't speak English very well. My English skill is very very poor.
The woman can speak Chinese little, but her pronunciation is very nice. She like studying Chinese very much!! But, she does not have chance to talk Chinese people. But, when She found Chinese, She try to speak them in Chinese. She has brave. so, I felt I am studying English, but I didn't enjoy studying English. Why am I studying English? I want to communicate with English speaker. But, I can't concentrate my English. I can't explain my mind in here, but I think I will study English more. I always think What should i do from now?

Movie review 2-02

Kill Bill

I really don’t like this movie, before I watched this one; my friends said this is very scary and not fun. But this is my home work!! So I watched this movie with my brother. This title is ‘Kill Bill’, so I thought the woman’s name is bill. And, other people try to kill her. However I started watch this Movie, she is not bill. Who is Bill?

Actually, I gave up when I started watch it 10 later, I can’t watch this Movie anymore. I need something to hide my eyes.

Now, I will write about story of Kill Bill!! The Bride who is this movie’s lead and She was belong to death squad.4 years ago, during her marriage, she was assailed by previous　 her death squad at the church. And all of them ware dead, police thought, but the Bride still arrived. However, she was unconscious and she has being at hospital for 4 years. Actually, she got pregnant. But when she wake up, she noticed she didn’t have her baby anymore, she was very angry and she decided to kill bill!!!! And her revenge starts.

It was really scary, because they naturally use arms, like swords, guns, knifes and other strange arms. And we could see manslaughter easily. Someone’s head, foot, hand and arm were leaped easily, and many many blood.

You will think it is really bad movie, but we could see interesting one in the movie. Because, The Bride went to Okinawa to kill Cotton mouse who is part of death squad member. But she is yakuza boss now. Sometimes, we could see Japanese, and The Bride also use Japanese. It was kind of strange. When she was fighting with cotton mouse, but they are not Japanese however they use Japanese. ‘Kakattekoi!!’ They can’t speak Japanese very well. So I think they didn’t need speak Japanese. We could see some interesting Japanese culture. If I have time, I will try to watch next movie Kill Bill2, but I need some towel to hide my eyes!!!

I read this book, this is Starman.

The empty centre of Australia. The sun is hot and there are not many people. And when Bill meets a man, alone, standing on an empty road along way anywhere, he is surprised and worried.

And Bill is right to be worried. Because there is something strange the man he meets. Very strange...

This story is very strange... but it is kind of funny..
Next time, I will try to read more longer book.

I read this book, this title is The adventures of tom sawyer. Tom Sawyer does not like school. He does not like work, and he never wants to get out of bed in the morning.
But he likes swimming and fishing, and having adventures with his friends. And he has a lot of adventures. One night, he and his friend Huck Finn go to the graveyard to look for ghosts. They don’t see any ghost that night. They see something worse than a ghost.

Movie Review2-01

I watched "Toy Story"

This movie’s leading character is Toy! It is kind of strange. Because, they move like human and have own mind. And we can know that toy’s feeling!!

I introduce this movie’s main character. Woody, Buzz light year, Andy　and Emperor　zurg.

Woody is cowboy toy and .Woody is leader of Andy’s toy and his favorite toy. Andy is boy and owner of toy include Woody. Andy birthday came, his toy are very nervous and Woody too. Andy will be receive birthday present by his friends and his family. If new toy come to his house, he will pay attention to other toy. So they are very nervous. Unfortunately, new toy came, he is Buzz light year which is very popular character of animation. Andy was very very happy!!!!! But other toy became sad. And Woody was deprive his spot by Buzz. Woody doesn’t think that he does not like Buzz. Buzz think he is not toy, he is space ranger. It is kind of funny. Woody tried to push Buzz by toy’s car. And Buzz dropped under from window. Andy’s every toy saw that, and They think Woody did, he is not good toy!!! Buzz did not find. If Buzz will not come buck Andy’s house, Woody think he can’t back home! So he went to outside to find Buzz!!!!

But outside is very dangerous world for Woody and Buzz. Toy worked together to solve the problem. When I was a pupil, I remembered that I watched this movie. I like this one, but this time I watched in English!! It is little difficult for me, but I could do that. Sometimes, I try to watch TV (Hannah Montana, Suite life Zack and Cody) in English, but this is very difficult for me. But Toy story is animation, so it is little easy to understand. I could know to toy’s mind and I think we have to take care of our object like book, clothes and so on. This is really nice movie!!

I read this book!!　This is ‘the battle of Newton road’’
This is the story of a road, and a battle. It is the story of Newton road.
Newton road is in an English town. Sally Robson lives there, near her school. She is a teacher. She lives in a small house, she likes Newton road.
One day Sally walking to her school. The school is in Newton Road too. She found placard which written something. ‘IMPORTANT’ ‘COME to the TOWN Hall’
Sally and neighbors are wording.
They went to there, one man spoke to their. He said, he is going to build houses for you, and build new road too.
Region person don’t agree!! They love there road!!
Finally, they can keep their house and road.I think everyone cooperate each other, we can get good result. Cooperation is very important!! This is very interesting story.

20 years in the future self introduction

2007-07-17T18:08:00.000+09:00

Now, I am 20 years old. Of cource,20 years in the future I will be 40 years. Probably　I will marry someone; I have a child, some dogs. This is my hope. However, I don’t decide my way. I can’t find my hope, but I want to become an English speaker. I want to use English at my job. When I was a Junior high school student, I believe I can speak English easily in the future. I noticed now, it is very difficult thing. Now, when I speak English with abroad student, I can’t listen what they said. If I want to say something in English, I don’t know how to say. Usually, I depend on my friend. I take some education class to be an English teacher. If I become an English teacher, I want my students to like English. I will do good English class. I will have my students　speaking, listening in my class. I hope my students want to study English more. They take to English!! I will be hard-worker at my office, I will save money. I will buy a lot of presents for my parents and take them to hot spring, overseas travel. Of course, I don’t need interpreter maybe…I appreciate my parents, so I want repay them. I think that my parents are very good. When I was high school student, they allow doing home stay. They are hard-worker. I look up to them. When I am 60 years old, I have to retire my job. I will travel all over the world by ship. I want to meet many people and make friends in the ship. For the present, I have to improve my English.　It is royal road.

Parakeets

2007-07-09T13:28:00.000+09:00

This is my parakeets. Can you notice these parakeets are baby?

Their mother run away from cage, her children was left by her. Their father stay in cage, but he doest’t feed them. If they keep on staying there, they will starve to death. My father decided to feed them by human hands. At first, they can’t eat feed. They gradually get used to us, they can eat enough. This picture is situation when they eat feed.

How do you think them? They are very cute. I have to name their, but they become adult. We can’t realize them. I hope that They will grown-up well.
