I like watching sports very much. So I will be excited this year!!! So excited!!! I'm looking forward to these sports events!! Don't miss it!!!

Someone wants to contact you people:

This is from an e-mail I just got today:

"Hi John, I'm just writing with news of something that might be of interest to your English class blog. I'm an author but I'm currently experimenting with a live novel - I'm writing a short chapter every day and publishing it directly to http://likeplastic.blogspot.com/
"It's very unusual (it's actually a skewed updating of Pope's "Rape of the Lock") but the central characters are Japanese, one of them inspired by a comic book hero, and I'd be very keen to get feedback from Japanese readers. There are four chapters already up and it should run until early February."

"Many thanks and all best, K"

I leave it out here for students and lurkers who may be interested in it. -JP

Where do we go from here?

We have three weeks of classes, 6 classes in all. I do plan to bring menus and money for you to practice ordering food (restaurant, takeout, delivery, etc.), but you can ask for anything else you want to learn about English, or practice in English, before we finish this class next month.

COUNTDOWN JAPAN

Do you know "COUNTDOWN JAPAN"?
This is one of the largest rock festivals in Japan.

I attended COUNTDOWN JAPAN held at Makuhari Messe on Dec. 31th.
Actually,it held for 3 days.(12/29~12/31) The last day,festival lasts all night!

I love Jackson vibe very much.Do you know??(If you want to listen to their music,please call out to me.)
I watched their performance in the front row,and I was moved very much.

It is very exciting to watch and listen to live music.Lets go live♪
