My favorite movie

  Sorry to be late. This is Misaki.

  My uncles like watching movies, so I used to watch several movies until I came to Hirosaki. I wondering which movie should I introduce.

  I like many film directors, but the best person is Charles Chaplin. First of all, most of his movies are interesting. When you want to laugh, just watch them. Maybe most university students can understand what they say if you listen to their talk and sometimes see subtitles. And I also know some jokes are not used in Japanese (only in English?). He always plays in words.
  Somehow, his movies make me cry. He tells us impressive stories. "Modern times" and "The Great Dictator" have funny part and emotional part. Maybe other movies by him have those two parts.

Aibo the movie

   Harry Potter is my the first film I saw at a theater. I remember anyone there was startled at a certain scene with a loud sound. Since then I saw all the Harry Potter series which ended last year with a happy ending.

   By the way, I like Aibo (=friend, buddy, or mate) which is a Japanese detective drama. Now it's season 11. And its stuffs sometimes makes a movie which includes a message to us. Following the law sometimes makes people sad or isn't justice, but they are police they must be strong enough to follow the law. It's very very worth considering, really really complicated.

   I've heard that a new movie of Aibo comes this winter. I'm looking forward to seeing the movie. But before that I want to see last year's one because I haven't seen it yet. I'll dash to a video rental shop now. Bye bye !

My Favorite Movie

 Hello. It's Chieko.
 Today, I tell you about my favorite movie.

 I like animation movies, especially which made by STUDIO GHIBLI. These kinds of movies are not  so serious and realistic, so I can watch them being comfortable.

 Among them, I like "LAPUTA Castle in the Sky" the most.


 This movie is a story that a boy and a girl venture searching of the castle of Laputa. They have many difficulties, but they never give up. Of course, there are some funny scenes. Besides, pictures are very beautiful and voice actors are good.

 Each time this movie is broadcasted on the television, I always watch it. Why don't you watch it?

This article is a joke. ←This is a joke.

Hello, I'm Rendai.

I like "Doraemon". And, my little brother 8years old (now 9), too. So, we used to go to see its movie. I'm talking about the Doraemon movie which is very impressive in my mind.

When I was third grade high school student, we went to see "Doraemon the movie: The Miracle Island with Nobita ~Animal Adventure~" for last memories of my high school life, at just the day before I move to Hirosaki.

This movie's concept is family. Family is heartwaming for us, but most people take it for granted. This movie tells us how important having family is.
I felt really sad and I really cried, because I had to live away from my family.Then, I wondered if I can do well in new life in Hirosaki and if I can make friends in University, and I wondered many things.
Now, I live in Hirosaki away from my family. I really thank my family for supporting me behind the scenes.

↓This is the trailer of this movie.



Thank you!

My favorite spot

Hi, this is Azusa.

I took a movie in my favorite spot where I often go shopping in my hometown.
There is normally so much people on the street but when I did this there was not many because it rained.... unfortunately.

Machida is this.

109 is also there. But I've been to 109 only THREE times during 12 years long.
I think 109 exist already for Girl (ギャル)!! Hahahaha...

Just watch this ;)

Snoooow!!!・∀・

  Good evening, this is Misaki.

  I live in Hirosaki since April, so I don't know winter in this town. Therefore, I was almost slipping on snowy street. But the view is beautiful... . I like trees covered with snow. I lived in Shizuoka Pref, I seldom see snow.
  I'm interested in winter sports. I have not play any winter sports so much. I tried to skating in my hometown, but I couldn't. I only walked on the skate link. I wanted to practice much more. There was not enough time. So, if you know some nice skate links or other winter sports, please tell me!
  In winter, my uncles, aunts and cousins usually get together at my home in Shizuoka, so I'm looking forward to go home. And there is my birthday in February. Maybe I have to learn many things about the cold weather in Hirosaki, but I like winter.

  The winter music I often listen to. ↓ I like this speed. 

  Thank you!

Winter Day

 Hello. I'm Chieko.

 I like winter because it snows. Some people says that they hate snow, but I like snow.They say that if snow falls, they get wet, they slip, and they can't walk. But I think snow is better than rain because I can brush the snow. I can't brush rain and I don't like walking under an umbrella.

 Though the view of snowy day is very beautiful, snow is sometimes terrible.


 It is beautiful, isn't it? But sometimes...


 Sometimes snow is driven by the wind. But, it is still OK. 
 In my hometown...


 Wind blows much harder. We sometimes can't see anything and we can barely walk.

 Although we have to have a hard time in winter here in Aomori, I still like winter. The largest reason is...in January, I celebrate my birthday! So I have some kind of feeling of familiarity. Actually, I feel familiarity also with snowstorm. My mother says that on my birthday, it always turns into a snowstorm!

Winter song

I don't like to ski. I don't like winter sports. I used to make snow man with my brother. I don't have the great memories of winter. But I like winter song.
So I recommend the winter song I like.
First, "RIDE AWAY". This song is for friends who are riding away from home town. This is composed by Hi-Fi CAMP.
Second, "Dakishimetai". This song is love song. This is composed by Mr.Children.

Winter = Skiing



    Hi. I'm Shun. I can't talk about winter without skiing. Watch this video. He's amazing. Because he's an athlete.

   I don't know about competition skiing well, because I ski just for pleasure. But I want to be like him(him, I mean an professional skier). He's very very cool. I'll tell you again, I'm not crazy.

   I'm going to ski this winter but I'm worried about my right knee that I hurt two years ago since then I haven't ski because I had an entrance exam. Skiing is one of my few thing that I have a confidence. So I hope my knee is all right to enjoy this winter.

    Bye bye

Good evening ☆

  This is Misaki. Sorry to be late.

  This is one of my favorite songs.
I knew the singer, Enya since I was an elementary school student. Her song was introduced in the radio English program (Kiso Eigo) I used to listen to. I remember I thought that sounds an angel's voice, and drew a picture of two angels. One was real angel and another was Enya with wings. I love her voice. I feel relaxed anytime I listen to and even I 'hear' her song.

  Many songs of her have a melody which makes me feel flowing or floating, but this song is more cheerful. I feel like singing with her.


  I'm interested in other kind of musics, too. I always listen to some game musics, MJ's songs (I miss him), vocaloid songs, J-pops, and soooooo on. (too many to write here.)
  Why don't you talk with me about your favorite musics after the three B class?

  Thank you!

The Smallest Car in the World



  This is a car comedy by BBC named Top Gear. In this video, a tall man named Jeremy drives the smallest car in the world. Some foolish programs you can enjoy if you don't like or hate car. And I like such a foolish one better than serious car impression. I don't want to talk about this video because I want you to watch this freshly without any preconceived idea. A certain Japanese government-run broadcasting station will never make such a funny, very nice program. Though BBC is the same one.

If you like this, go youtube and find more. And let me know something you like.

During Homework

 Hello.
 Today, I'll introduce the music I hear during homework.

 I often do my homework listening to the music. It sometimes makes me comfortable. But some kind of music is annoying, but this isn't. I usually listen to the music setting the volume quiet so that I can concentrate on my homework.


















 I like the animation movies Hayao Miyazaki made and I also like the songs in the movies. So I think this video is grate. Although this video includes several songs I do not know well, I enjoy them (in fact, I do not listen that parts well).

 If you like these animations, try it once!

The game's story I like the best

When the man lost the "self" and fell down to darkness, he will be the "heartless". They are called the creature that gives concrete the darkness. And the man who has really strong heart becomes "heartless", "Nobody" will birth at the same time. They have no heart, but have memory of one's past.

Sora is a main character, and Roxas is Sora's Nobody. Ordinally Nobodies have memories, but Roxas has no memory because Sora became heartless by the special way. Generally, Nobodies and the origin of Nobodies can never exist at the same time. But Sora and Roxas do. Why?

If you get interested in this story, play KIGDOM HEARTS, or read their novels.
This movie is my really favorite movie.

Major, Hirodaifest, Hometown and Interests!

Hello my friends ;)
I wasn't long time here, sorry I've just forgotten....

About 4 things I'd like to write today.




 At first... about my major!
You already know what my major is. It is education of fine arts. I often study in the building of education. So I seldom see you at University.
Usually I think my assignment of paintings because I have to finish my works within next one week.
When I paint on a paper, I want to do so carefully. But the limited time unfortunately does not allow me.
 In first semester I took a lecture of Japanese traditional painting. There I could complete a painting of lily. In Japanese paintings, lily is often wrote and in Christianity, lily means innocence or purity.
 Now in this second semester I'm taking 31 credits of classes. So I' m a little bit busy;)  (BUT this may be an excuse that I forgot my homework...)







 Next! About my Hirodaifest.
Actually I did nothing for a period of Hirodaifest.  Because I don't belong to any clubs.... Then I bought some sweets my friend sold and met them.
After that I could fortunately see beautiful sunset! Look at this picture! With this scene, my Hirodaifest has finished....!!







 Ok, I have to tell you my hometown.
My hometown is Kanagawa which lies between Tokyo and Yamanashi. Check below where it is!
And Sagamihara-city has became really big city. But I don't know to where from where Sagamihara is. Maybe toooooo large!
 And near my house there is american base which is surrounded with fence. There I found a cat before 2 years and still have the cat in Hirosaki because I brought him.
 I have nothing to write about hometown..... sorry.



bigger map?


In my hometown Kanagawa, snow fall only few like this photo in winter. Obviously this snow must be such no snow for people in Aomori....








 Finally came this. Free topic of my interests!
What I really want to talk about is...... my hobby, COOKING!!! I love cooking and baking. Especially my forte is "gnocchi". In Japanese it is called "ニョッキ". This gnocchi is often made from potatos and flour. in the proportion of one to one. I love to make gnocchi with my hand because it makes me fan to round the dough.
Normally I cook it with creme sauce however this photo is not.
 If you have never eaten gnocchi, I'll be pleased to cook it for you!!!






So, this is all I wanted to write!

See you tomorrow! Ciao :)

Looking for my 100yen

  Good evening, this is Misaki.

  This Monday, I had a foolish experience.
  Before starting the 5th period, I had to pay 250yen to my friend. That was for some photos. I paid 1000yen bill and waiting for 750yen charge. The next moment, the bell rang. The class started.
  I was hurried, and I throw those coins into my purse. Then, those of two were falling, rolling, and missing. I was so embarrassed. One of those missing coins, was found by a boy sitting near by me. But the professor started speaking, so I stopped searching another one.
  At 17:30, the bell rang. I started looking for the last 100yen coin again. My friends helped me, but we couldn't find it. Finally, we gave up and going home. I picked up my bag and my umbrella. Then, we heard some noise, and there was a rolling 100yen coin! We surprised, maybe the coin was in my umbrella till I picked it up. My friends said, it just like a comedy or a short comic story. We laughed a lot.
  I learned no matter how I am hurried, I mustn't throw coins into the wallet. I was sorry to my friends. But it was a little bit funny.

  Thank you!

My Favorite Festival

 Hello. It's me, Chieko. Today, I'll introduce "Tachineputa" to you.

 Tachineputa is the festival held in August 4 to 8th in Gosyogawara City. We take tall dolls riding on cars mainly made by paper and wire. Besides, we play flutes, drams, and handbells. And we hop or dance to the music. It is really fun!

 (This is the last year's our high school's doll)

 Although it is not really certain, it is said that neputa-festival was originally some kinds of the ceremony of floating lanterns on the water. The name is from Japanese word "nemutai", means sleepy.

 In my high school, there is a club making tachineputa-dolls. The club also play instruments in the festival. Of course, students not belongs to the club also can take part in the festival. I took part in the festival playing drams and dancing when I was a high school student. When I graduated the high school, was I disappointed that I can't participate in the festival? No. The graduates also can participate in the festival with the students! In fact, I participated in the festival this summer with my friends. I met old friends and enjoyed a lot!

 Why don't you see it? You may enjoy a lot, too!

 Thank you.


awesome day

   I woke up the third alarm, I felt angry "why don't you ring at the time I ordered !" I drank boiled water which works very much for me not to die in the cold outdoor. It makes me feel like going to the toilet too.

   I get thickly dressed, go to school by bicycle not to be late though I don't want to feel a freezing wind. I'll be arrested inside the school for about 10 hours then. I spent a hard time not to lose my heavy eyelids.
  
   At lunch time, I put too much sauce, I needed to drink 10 glasses of water. I entertained my friend, I'm a good man.

   I'm not going to write about afternoon classes. Of course I was awake, yeah, there's no room to doubt about it. yes,yes.

   At home I ate curry ramen. It was really good. It burned my tongue. And it made me have a sore throat. A table and clothes got stained and I had to wash a lot of dishes.

   And I spent two hours to write such a trifling thing. Good night !

My interest

Recently, I'm interested in writing the lyrics in Japanese. I like Japanese language. Because, they have many words and many styles of expressing the thinking.

Apart from that, I write lyrics. As I do that, I can find what I really think about and who I really am. And I knew how difficult expressing my feeling and writing the convincing sentences are. In writing the lyrics, we shoud adjust the number of sounds of letters. But, I'm not trying to write music, so I don't have to do that.

And, I noticed. Unless we really think about that, we never can write the great lyrics. For example, the man who never experenced the lost love never can express the lost love lylics. So, I want to go through many things. As I do that, I can write many variations of lyrics.

Thank you.

My hometown♪

  Good evening. This is Misaki.
  
  My hometown is Fujinomiya City. It is in Shizuoka Prefecture.

   Nowadays, the city is famous for fried noodle which named "Fujinomiya yakisoba".
We use steamed noodles to make Fujinomiya yakisoba. It is a little bit hard. (stiffness?) It tastes "Umyaa", which means nice taste in Fujinomiya valve.


  Rainbow trout is famous food, too. It's like salmon, but trout lives in cold fresh water.
It is also very popular in America. Last week, I was told it by professor Philips. I searched on the Internet, and surprised, rainbow trout comes from California! It's not Japanese fish. And I understand that some people says too many trouts is not good for Fujinomiya.

  If you go to my hometown, it takes long time. But there are lots of other delicious foods and nice views include Mt.Fuji. So please go there someday.

  Thank you.
 (I'm hungry... .)

My Hometown

 Hello, I'm Chieko.

 My hometown is Nakasato in Aomori prefecture.It is almost in the middle of Tsugaru peninsula.Could you find it?



 It is a small rural town and the proportion of old people to the population is large. There are vast rice fields but nothing else. It is a very quiet place so I can have a relaxed time there.

 The town has a library and a museum. These are the places the most I like. The library is very clean and comfortable place. I often go there when I'm in my hometown. And the museum has many interesting goods which were used in Meiji or Edo period by farmers in Tsugaru area. So I used to go there on every Saturday (actually because elementary school students can enter for free on Saturdays).
 These are the rink for the library and the museum.

http://www.town.nakadomari.lg.jp/index.cfm/12,0,35,51,html ←library
http://www2.town.nakadomari.aomori.jp/hakubutsukan/ ←museum

 There is nothing special but I like my hometown. It is natural and comfortable place for me. Besides, tap water is good and we can drink it directly. I don't say "Please come to my hometown!" but I like Nakasato very much.

 Thank you.



Hokkkkkaaaaidoooooo

   I'm from somewhere in Hokkaido. I want to ski there because I couldn't do last year not to fail an important entrance exam. I miss that wind.
   Hokkaido has realistic moai. Look. 

Can you distinguish between real one and this if you didn't see its background? 

   And this is a building once I've thought it was Kokkaigijido. Kokkaigujido means the Diet Building. In fact, it's just a high school in Sapporo. I'll be glad if anybody think so. 
That's all.   Bye.

About my hometown

Hello, I'm Rendai.
I'm telling you about my hometown.

I'm from Aomori City, which is famous for apples and garlics.Aomori's apples are really delicious. I really like them! In Aomori, not only apples,but also apple juices are really famous. Garlics are really nutritious. There are Black Garlic, kind of garlic.We can eat them in raw. They are peculiar sweet.

In Aomori, there is very very famous and interesting festival. It is Nebuta Festival in summer.We play flute, beat drums, ring bells, or jump in that festival. They all play the same rhythm. Nebutas are very big! They are made from papers. I don't know how they are made. But, maybe it's really hard.

In fact, my parents' house is in the country. There is nothing special. But, there is a shore near their house. I usually went there when I got depressed. I like the nature. So, I can feel refleshed. And, I really hate the crowded place like Tokyo. So,
I 'm fit for the country.

Now, I live in Hirosaki. It is easy to go my home town by train because the distance is close. So I can go back my parents' home easily when I feel like going back. I'm really happy.

Thank you.

Hirodaisai

 Hello. I'm Chieko.

 In October 26th to 28th, Hirodaisai, the school festival in Hirosaki University, was held. I heard many people went there, and my friends enjoyed it. But I went there only on Friday.

 Why? I don't belong to any clubs, so I had nothing to do with shops. That means I have three days off! So I went back home and had a relaxed time.

 But I was interested in the festival, so I went there on Friday. I went with my friend in dormitory in the afternoon. We first went to the shop which my friend who belongs to Karuta club runs. They sold "anmitsu". I like sweets so I bought one cup of anmitsu. My friend was so glad because I was the first customer to them.

 After that, we two walked around seeing many shops. There were so many people. Some people talk to us to sell their goods. Actually, I don't like crowded place very much and I felt very tired, so we went home. We were in the festival for only two hour!

 That's all about my time in festival. But my friends say they enjoyed it, so I want to enjoy it more next year!

The university festival [include a photo]

  Good evening, this is Misaki.

  Last Saturday, October 27 was the middle day of our university festival. I had a lot of fun.

  I sold Genghis Khan barbecue, or grilled mutton and vegetables, as a member of our club.
My friends cooked, and older students sold it.

                                  My teammates
                       ↙                   ↓                  ↘


And I advertised our booth. I walked around the crowd, showing the signboard our booth's name was written.

  My work was finished around noon. I ate lunch and went to the computer room. There was an event to talk with a professor in Bangkok on Skype. When I entered the room, many cars and motorcycles caught my eyes. The professor taught us about his daily life in Bangkok. Sometimes we could hear Thailand people talking. I understood Bangkok is a big city.

  After that, I went back to our booth, and started advertising again. Finally, our Genghis Khan barbecue was sold out. I was happy to hear that.

  I'm looking forward to go to many other booths next year.

  Thank you.

HIRODAISAI

Hello, I'm Rendai.

I was tired. I got tired of school festival.
I'm in enviroment circle.

We sold frankfurter sausage, curry and nan.
They sold well.
Because it was really cold day and rained last day, people wanted hot menu, I think.
And, we had really great mascot.
We had kechup and mastard and mario and luigi!
They were really popular, especilly among children.

I did serving customers.
I said "How about frankfurter!" and so on, with loud voice.
I was tired.

But, I really enjoyed myself!

HIRODAISAI

 Last weekend, we had a school festival ? I don't know how to call it because university is a place to learn or study but we don't call it a school. hmm.......

 All right, we had a festival. Really different from school festival that I've experienced at high school. We weren't allowed to cook, just to buy and sell something which has already been packed. But this time, there were a lot of fire, smoke, hot plates and so on.  Is it because we've already grown up to be ? I'll be happy if so be.

 It is said that many events are great too. Actually I saw few events. I just went through its main street to eat something.

 And I think it was very lucky that we could see fireworks as a final event because it was raining then.

 This is not good picture but you can know how be crowded there.   Bye.

My major

  Hello, this is Misaki.
Today, I'm going to write about my major.

  I major in earthscience, or geoscience.
I'm from Shizuoka Prefecture. It is said the Tokai Earthquake will comes. My family and many friends live there. There is a big volcano, Mt.Fuji, too.
So I thought I have to study about the mechanism of earthquake and volcanic eruption.

  I'm in the department of earth and environmental sciences in Hirodai.
Most of my friends want to study about weather, earth environment, and space. In this department, we can learn many things about the earth. We need math and physical skills, but I don't have such skills yet.
I want to study about the relation of natural disaster and our life. Forecasting of earthquake is so difficult, however.


  This picture is earthquake locations (Tohoku and Kanto Regions) for the last 7 days.
This is from "Hi-net". I usually check this page.

My Major

Hello!

Today, I'll introduce my major in Hirosaki University.

I belong to Department of Frontier Material Chemistry.
Yes, I major in chemistry.

We learn about mechanism of chemical reaction.
And our goal is to be able to create new materials or new methods of chemical reactions.
It is not easy, but I want to make a new discovery someday.

The reason that I chose this department is very simple.
I like chemistry.
When I learned chemistry in the high school, I wanted to know more about details of mechanisms of many kinds of reactions.

Since I am still a freshman, I still do not do experiments, however.
I'm looking forward to the the days I can do experiments in the class.
But sadly, we must write a report after each experiment.
It sounds..... hard.
Maybe we will be busy every day.

Do you want more information?
If so, please access our department's web site.
You can access it from here
http://www.st.hirosaki-u.ac.jp/~chem/

Thank you.

Hi.I'm Rendai.

I'm in the faculty of science and technology.
I major in Programing.

We learn how to operate computer and how to produce computer.
We practice to operate BASIC, C++ now.
As we grade up,we'll learn an algorithm,soft computing,and so on.
We need large knowledge of mathematics and physics to operate programing.
Especially, we have to study math hard.
Because,we have to calculate complicated numerical by programing.

We learn how to assemble electronic circuit and a semiconductor and many utensil.
As it, we know how to produce computer.

We'll be a great programer!

Picuture(Only our department student can enter here, and operate computer.)

What's my major? in Univ...

Hi.

 This time, about my major.
Its long name is "Department of Intelligent Machines and System Engineering, Faculty of Science and Technology".
Memorize it!

 A machine works if you turn it on. And you have to operate it according to the situations. But, an intelligent machine is different. It owns some sensor to know its around, it owns intelligence to decide what it should do according to the situation found out by its sensor. We can call it a "New Future Machine".

 The department aims at a better world than ever, in a way of making intelligent machines. Most of the students does too, I think.

 Now, classes that I have to attend is just 6 (3 classes of physics(include experiments), 2 classes of math, and a class of information). And most of the classes(not have to)are basic education, it's very lucky now. I shudder at the thought of my future days being filled with math and science.

 You may visit links below if you want.

Restaurant in Hirosaki


Hay, do you like to eat some nice food?
If you want to do so, just ask me!

I always think where I can get good taste food here in Hirosaki and I'm sure that there is here low price or nice food.
In last week, I asked a professor of product design whether there are the restaurant in which we my friends and I can be satisfied in visual or sight.

And we could finally go to the restaurant "Ginsuisyokudou" (in Japanese:銀水食堂)

The restaurant is actually a old japanese kitchen.
So if you look for old dear Japan, you must be pleased there.

This photo was taken in last week and this Tonkatsu-Teishoku costs 700 yen.
Besides the rice was soooooo big bowl.... I could'n eat it up...


The location is Kaji-machi near the Kakumikoji (street name) which is in front of Nakasan.


In internet you can NOT find this kitchen ;)


See you later!

Japanese Traditional Play

These days, I am interested in "origami."
It is one of the Japanese traditional play.

We usually fold one paper to form many kind of things.
For example, we make animals, flowers, fish, and so on.
Sometimes we use several papers to make big productions such as dinosaurs.
But some people make such kind of things with only one paper!

I also tried to make big work using only one paper, but... I gave up when I make half.
That was really complex!
I'd like to try again during winter vacation.
But I can make a squirrel in the heart in about 7 minutes.
It looks so cute, so I like making it.



By the way, the skill of "origami"is used to make a satellite.
I think that is honor to Japanese people.
Sadly, I can't write a detail (because I don't have enough vocabulary),so if you want more information, please search.
You may find the news with the word "miura-ori."

I found it interesting because I can make various things from one paper.
That is amazing, isn't it?
Now I would like to try to make many things and enjoy the play which people in the past day enjoyed.

Cats & Dogs

Good evening, this is Misaki.

Which do you like, cats or dogs?
We sometimes hear this question.

Actually, I don't like dogs so much. When I was six years old, my neighbor's dog bitten me. I cried and ran away.
Now I understand not every dogs want to bite me, but I can't touch them. ;-(

I like cats. I used to draw many cats' illustrations with my brother when I was small.
My grandmother made a cat puppet and two rabbits puppet for us. Those were so cute! xD
I guess I like rabbits the most. Or maybe I just like my family members.

Please be careful when the typhoon is coming.
It'll be raining cats and dogs, I mean, heavy rain!

I'm going to tell you my personality roughly.

I want to go to bed untill day changes, whatever happens.
I really hate to stay up late.
And I can get up early.
But, I feel sleepy, however I sleep long time, ha ha.

I don't like to stay home all day.
I always go outside of my home in weekend.
Even if I have only little time.

I write a dialy everyday.
I write the today's occurrence, what I felt today, my discontent,
happiness, questions in my mind, and many feelings.
As I do that, I can feel happy, relaxed.
Because, whatever I do, I write positive sentense at last sentense absolutely.
And I can think I will do well!

I really want to enjoy my campus life.
I want to challenge many things!

I'm Chieko Kogawa

Hello!

My name is Chieko Kogawa. I am a freshman of Hirosaki University, and I major in chemistry. I like chemistry very much, so I'm really happy to learn it.

I'm from Nakasato in Aomori prefecture. Although it is a small rural town, I like my hometown very much because it is a very quiet place. My parents grow rice there, so I can always eat delicious rice. But now I am living in Hirosaki because Nakasato is too far from Hirosaki to go to the university every day.

When I'm free, I often cook or read a book. I can make hamburg stake, nikujaga, oyakodonn, and so on. I usually make meat dish, so I'm worried that I'm lacking in vegetable! Of course, I can also make sweets. On my friend's birthday, I made a banana cake for her. Next time I'm going to make some sweets using sweet potato.

Since I have been studying at my desk or reading books, I'm not good at playing sports. In fact, I don't like sports very much. But I want to become a teacher, so now I must attend sports class! It makes me very depressed.

Anyway, I'll try hard in English ⅢB class!

Thank you.

Amazing Grace

 Before the class, I knew this song but I didn't know that how this song was made and that this song was sung all over the world. Why is this song so famous? Is it because that this song is a hymn? I think that this song is readily-accepted for many people and taht the lyrics have something important significant for them through their own experience.

FEBRUARY ONE

 I watched four students' act with courage in this video. They learned thinking of Mahatma Gandhi or they protested against Jim Crow by non-violence. I was impressed by their courage. I thought that the black citizens were given civil rights and that the first black president was elected in the United States as the result of effort which brave people like them made.

"Wherever You Will Go"

 I have English ⅢA class. The other day I knew a song in the class. The song is "Wherever You Will Go" sung dy The Calling. This song was released on July 10th, 2001. However, this song sold well in the fall of that year. Why do you think so? According to Mr.Murayama, who is my English ⅢA calss teacher, "The simultaneous terrorist attacks happened in the fall of the year. The words to the song was superimposed on the grief in the tragic accident." The song is sang, "If I could, then I would, I'll go wherever you will go." I think this song is powerful and makes listeners encouraging.

 If you want to listen to the music, you can listen in this site.

Summer plan

 I'll take a weather forcaster test in the summer vacation. I'm interested in weather, so I would like to try the test. It is very difficult test and pass rate for the test is only about 5 percent. A great majority of people who passed the test had failed the test many times. In other words, few people pass the test on ones' first attempt. This is my first attempt. I want to get the feel of the place which I take the test and to understand how difficult I pass the test. However, of course I'll do my best.

My favorite movie

 My favorite movie is Harry Potter series. I was hooked on this movie when I was a junior high school student. However, I don't watch all series and I don't read all stories. I stop watching "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, and I stop reading "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince" before coming to the end. I don't have a chance to watch or read. My friends always say to me that I don't have to watch all series. Why? If I have a chance, I will watch the other series.

This is the first film "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's stone" trailer.

My hobby

 I enjoy go as my hobby. It is also called igo. Go is a board game. The rule is very simple, but go itself is complex. However, I think it is very interesting, so I am hooked on go. I enjoy playing go in the club or on the Internet. Go is popular in East Asian countries such as Chine, Korea, Taiwan and Japan. I hope that the number of people who enjoy playing go increase further. It is said that go develops your creativity and playing go helps you make your life plan. Why don't you start playing go?

My favorite season

 My favorite season is autumn. I have some reasons. First, autumn is the best season about climate. It is not too hot and not too cold, so it is very comfortable. Spring is similar to autumn in terms of climate but I'm sensitive to spring pollen. Second, I think autumn is the best season for doing various things. As is often said, autumn is the best season for reading or sports. I'm not good at reading but I'm willing to do sports in this season. Third, you can eat various fruits in autumn. I like peaches, pears, apples, grapes, persimmons, chestnuts, and so on. They ripens in autumn, so I am looking forward to eat them in autumn. Therefore, I like autumn.

Beautiful flower in Hirosaki

Hirosaki city is famous for its cherry blossoms. Every year, many people visit it to see them.
The cerry blossoms in Hirosaki may be the most beautiful around the end of April till the begin of May.

If you didn't go to Hirosaki Parkthis year, you should visit it next year!

I took a picture of the cerry blossoms at night in Hirosaki park last week.

A foreign species

This spring ,I joined a Field science club.In the club,We capture insects or frogs, crabs...some small animals, and we often make a specimen.So I have a chance of thinking about living things.

Foreign species bring many serious problems to us and animals. For example, in Okinawa and Amamiooshima, mongooses from South-West Asia are affecting rare animals in the island such as an Okinawa rail. In Guam, Brown tree snake from Australia ate endemic birds, and 8 of 11 species died out. Foreign species damige not only animals but also us. Raccoons from North America and Coypu from South America spoil crop. Foreign Grasses are one of the causes for our hay fever. Thus, foreign animals have bad influences, and I think we should be careful about living things when we travel abload.

Communication of alcohol



Do you know the word "Nominication"?
This is the coinage meaning communication using alcohol.

It is used at a company too.  If people enter the company, maybe there are some events, for example, the sociable, year-end party or new year party.  These parties are used the way of communication.
Surprisingly, the cost of these are gave the part of grant (at partial company).

I think this system is good for adapting to life of company.  It appear the important aspect that the human relations is very important fopr society.

But at university, is "Nominication" important for university student?  Of course, alcohol is one way of communication for student too.  However is become problem causing the acute alcoholic poisoning like May 7th at the university of Hokkaido.  So if we use alcohol for communication, we have to know the risk of alcohol, not only good point.

Earthquake, on 11th March, 2011

 The day I went to Aomori Airport by plane with my mother during the morning, and we got to Hirosaki Station and joined my father. After having lunch, we went to Hirosaki University for formalities of Hirosaki University Coop. While we were in Bunkyoushokudou for it, the earthquake had occurred and caused power failure. However, we continued the formalities because the earthquake vibrations were long but weren't strong. We went to the hotel by cab after the formalities. Traffic lights didn't turn on because of power failure. After we had supper in the dark room, we spent the whole night around the cold hotel lobby. The next day, I was surprised at the suffering caused by the earthquake to watch TV in the cellphpne shop. We went to Aomori Airport by bus in the afternoon and we could get home in Osaka at night. I had an uneasy, unusual and once-in-a-lifetime experience.

Good Bye!

Although the lesson of English 3B was difficult for me, I was able to speak English positively or I was able to write English essay.
Although speaking in English at first was not completed easily, I could speak English by myself gradually and I can have confidence .
Even if the answer was wrong, it was glad that the teacher encouraged.

 I thought that the way was used writing a text not only in an English text but in Japanese.
Thank you very much:)

Good bye!

 Good evening everyone. My name is Aya Oshiro. I spend a meaningful time to study with you.Writing a blog in English it is rarely experience. I'm glad I can participate in the blog, but a little time.
 
 
 
  3B in the classroom of the contents could not keep up so often, I was often regretted. Class 3B were higher levels of English is for me. However, to study in this class has become a good stimulus and motivation to rise. I would like to continue to challenge without fear of the future. And, I want to be a person who will continue the effort.
 
 
 I have a good time to reflect on in lecture.I`m glad to meet everyone. See you again.
 May you be very happy.Good bye!

Good bye

     I learned a lot of things from this class. Before I take the class, I didn’t know about English writing rules. For example, when I write English assignment in hand, I didn’t leave any margin on the both sides, and I didn’t know about paragraph rule. So, at first, there were many mistakes corrected in red ink by teacher in my assignments, but recently, these have decreased. I think this progress was brought by the lessons and writing assignments every week. Although the semester finished, I’ll keep writing English sentences to progress my English skills.

Goodbye!

English 3B class ended yesterday.
We wrote a lot of paragraph and essay. I had trouble writing a good English composition.
I'm a student of education and major in English. So, I have to write "卒論" in English. I took a few special field classes this semester. But to tell the truth, this 3B class was the most useful to the point of writing English composition. I think that having learned in this class will be useful in special field classes in the near future and in writing "卒論".
I was able to learn a lot of things in this class. And I had a little confidence of writing English paragraph and essay.
Thank you, Mr. Philips!
Goodbye everyone!!

Good bye!!!!

My name is Kasai Momona.I enjoy iiiB class.I want to enjoy to write English.
Thank you,Everyone.Goodbye★

GOODBYE!

Today we had the last IIIB class. Wow...half year has passed since I joined this class! I have learned a lot of things: how to write paragraph, essay....  I have to write "卒論" in English so this class has been really useful, and efficient. Now I have more confident to write English paragraph or essay using contrast, comparison, logical division, chronological order and so on.

After all, I could enjoy this class and I'm glad to seeing you. Have a nice spring(? )vacation! Take care. BYE-BYE!! :D

Goodbye

Good evening. I am Asuka Fujiwara.
Today is last day in this semester, so today's class was the final class in our EnglishⅢB class.

I had a lot of anxiety when I had taken a first lecture.
Can I keep up with this class? Can I answer questions in English? They were always in my heart for the first time.
However, in fact, EnglishⅢB was very interesting for me. Words I did not know was a chance I fix in mind. Things I became able to do gave me lots of motivation for me!
I learned many things from these lecture! Thank you for everyone!

When someone find me in this university, please accost easily .Let's take it easy!
See you again!!

Hamlet


    Before I watched that movie, I knew only that Hamlet is the tragedy written by William Shakespeare, and it is one of the most famous tragedies in the world. I was interested in it, but I thought it is difficult for me to understand, so I had never read and watched yet.  

     When I watched that movie, I thought most the characters in that story are pitied. Hamlet is poor, but I think Gertrude who is a Hamlet’s mother and her husband was killed by brother in law, Ophelia whose father killed by Hamlet, and Laertes whose father and sister died are more pitiful person.

     Because this movie is interesting, I’ll try to read and watch other Shakespeare's stories and movie!

Hamlet

 I do not see a movie about tragedy. Because I like happy ending.But Hamlet was good.Was easy to see but black-and-white film.Particularly good actress. I wanted to also look at a movie called «Roma Holiday».
 Want to look at the Hamlet again. I thought also good black-and-white film. Thank you.

Hamlet

Two weeks ago and three weeks ago, we watched a movie. The title of a movie was "Hamlet".

Actually, I do not watch movies made in foreign country very much. So I know only the title of  "Hamlet", and I do not know other things. Is Hamlet a woman? I thought it right first.
There is a few things I felt when I ended watching it.
First, I felt frighting. This movie is not horror movie but I thought it was horrifying. Maybe because of I saw the back of human 's hatred.
And I also felt sad. Hamlet die in the end, and story is contained its sorrow. If it ends happy end, I cannot feel these distress.

This movie was a chance I have interested in foreign movies for me. When I have a free time, I try to watch movie made in foreign country as possible as I can.

Thank you for reading.

Hamlet

I watched tragedy for the first time. I like comedy movies very much and I wouldn't watch tragedy until now. In the end, many people died one after another. Tragedy is very profound and when I finished watching Hamlet, there was something I couldn't understand. There was something I couldn't feel after finishing watching comedy movies. What is tragedy? I can't answer well now. Tragedy is what is not only happy end? I think that it is not easy like that. There is something that give us opportunities to think various things in tragedy. Anyway, I enjoyed watching Hamlet. I want to watch other tragedy movies.

Hamlet

 I've known Hamlet but never read or watched it till I watched it in the class last day. "Hamlet is really tragedy!" This is my first comment. A lot of people died and finally even Hamlet did! " To be or not to be, that is the question" is the most famous word in this story and I think so, too 'cause there are many interpretation of it. As many interpretation say, I also think that line means " to live, or not to live"  If he goes on living, he can accomplishes his father's vengeance. But if he doesn't, he never does. Hamlet is really sincere.  He places his father's revenge priority over his life. If my important person is killed, can I do it? This is difficult question!  "To die, to sleep" is also impressive for me.  he says "To sleep: perchance to dream: ay, there's the rub. For in that sleep of death what dreams may come."  Will I have a dream after the death? What kinds of?  This story left me some big questions. I want to read this story in English!
