My favorite food


  Hello!!  I'll tell you about my favorite food.

  My favorite food is a Japanese sweet called Wagashi(和菓子).  Especially I like Domyoji(道明寺) best.  Domyoji is a kind of sakura rice cakes.  Its smell and color is very sweet, and it is of course delicious!!  I often eat it in spring.

  The sweet I ate most lately is a fish-shaped pancake(たい焼き).  I like it very much, too.  By the way, do you eat it from a tail or from a head?  I always eat from a tail.  But my friends said that those who eat from a tail marries late...  I was shocked when I heard that. But!!  I'll stick to this. I 'll continue to eat from a tail in future.

When I buy banana at supermarket, I can see bananas from many countries, Philippine, Ecuador, Taiwan and so on. I think Taiwan banana is the best, but it is a bit expensive. Nowadays I have little money, so I usually buy banana by watching it's price .

My hobby



My hobby is playing the trombone.

I like the trombone's low sound. It carries well.
I've played "Carmen," "Star Wars," "Sleeping Beauty" and so on.
My favorite suite is "Nutcracker."
And now, I'm interested in cooking.
I tries various recipes everyday.
During my school life, I want to do whatever I'm interested in and find new hobbies!!

My hobby

Let me introduce to you my hobbies.



First, I like to watch soccer games. I'm a fan of URAWA RED DIAMONDS (URAWA REDS). I became a REDS fan when I was fifteen years old. One day, I watched the game on TV without intention, but I was glued to the TV at once. The game excited me. Since then, I like REDS. I will go on to cheer REDS.



Second, I like dancing. When I was a pupil, I was taken with baton twirling. And I was eight years old, I started to learn ballet. Now I belong to street dance club, and I enjoy dancing with my friends.

In future, I want to have more hobbies.

My hobby

My hobby is to play badminton.

when I was junior high school student, I was belong to badminton club in the school. So,
I was thinking that I wanted to enter to badminton club in high school, too.
But my high school did not have badminton club, when I entered the high school. At this I decided to establish badminton club.
Many my friends and teachers gave me cooperation. So, at last I could establish badminton club. and ,I could play badminton with my best friends in high school.

I think badminton is one of the hardest sports. At first sight,badminnton is seemed to easy sports. But it is mistake. To play badminton needs to staying power.

I think badminton is not official sports yet. But , lately Ogusio pairs creatits a badminton sensation. I am so glad that.

Now,I am looking foward to watching to badminton game of Olympic game in Beijin.

Let me introduce my hobby!

I have many hobbies, such as watching TV programs or movies, drawing pictures, listening to music, reading comics etc… but today I’ll tell you about my hobby watching TV or movies!
I usually watch TV or DVD about 3hours a day. Some of my favorite TV programs are “Pussuma”(ぷっすま),”Bakushow Red Carpet”(爆笑レッドカーペット)etc…
The other day, I became a membership of GEO, so I rented some DVDs. “Check it out” (チェケラッチョ) is my best recent movie. Please Check It Out! I also rent a drama DVD.”12 pairs of eyes”(24のひとみ)is very funny. It contains black humors.
I love comedy movie or drama very much because I can refresh by laughing! I also like the serious movies because I can feel many things to think about the movies.

Now I’m thinking about renting “ER” DVDs to be accustomed to Medical English. If you know enjoyable movies (Any kinds are OK.), please tell me the title of it!

My hobby

My hobby is seeing movies and reading books. I had no time last year because I had to study hard,but now I can see many movies and read many books.So I am happy.

Recently,I saw ''LAST SAMURAI''. This movie is based on Japanese history. I got interested in Japanese history and the way of samurai by seeing this. After I saw this,I read ''BUSHIDO'',
written by Inazo Nitobe. I learned many interesting things .

In this way,movies and books show me something new.So I like to do these things. I will continue to do and learn many things.

My hobby

My hobby is to play mah-jong.
I often play mah-jong with my family. However ther is six including me. We can play mah-jong up to four people, so my family rotate when we play mah-jong.I started to play mah-jong when I was in junior high school student .
The reason why I like mah-jong is exciting to consider tactics.

My hobby

My hobby is playing basketball.

When I was 10 years old,I started to play basketball.
My elder brother belonged to basketball club and I was made to play basketball with him unwillingly.But ,by the time I entered junior high school,I was completely absorbed in basketball.since then, I have played basketball.

I think basketball is very hard sport.Because we have to keep moving as long as stand on court.
In addition, basketball needs judgment in a flash. We have no time to rest in playing basketball.
But, I like the moment I could sink a shot, play well,I play basketball.I enjoy playing basketball.


Now,I belong to medical basketball club.I want to improve my basketball skills in this club.

My hobby

I like ballet.I have been learning ballet since I was three years old.

I'll tell you about ballet.

Ballet is a story that is expressed by dancing,not with lines.It looks very elegant,but it is very difficult.Ballet dancers have to practice hard,or they won't be able to show good performance.I practice ballet on Wednesday,Friday,Saturday and Sunday at ballet school.I become tired every time,but I'm happy when I'm dancing.


Recently the number of male ballet dancers has increased.For example,you may know Tetsuya Kumakawa.He is a pioneer of Japanese male ballet dancer.His performance is very dynamic.He jumps like a bird.I saw his performance two years ago.He played a prince of "Swan Lake."That was very excellent! Then I thought I wanted to be a good dancer.

Hello!

My name is Yoshitaka Yamamoto. I`m from Hirosaki. Hirosaki is famous from apples, Hirosaki castle, and so on. Above all, I like seasonal events. There are various events in Hirosaki. For ezample, Cherry brossom festival in spring, Neputa in summer, Chrysanthemum and Maple festival in fall, and so on. In these events, we can feel the four seasons in different ways. I think that Hirosaki is the city which let us feel the four seasons.

my hobby

hello every one
sorry to be late,

My name is Mahathir and I came from Malaysia. My hobby is playing footall. I had started playing football while I was 7 years old. I always play with my friend in the evening. In my country football is one of the most famous sport among the citizen. I think it not just at Malaysia, football is one of the popular sport in the world.
Football is a very good sport for our physical and mental. It is because when you play football you will practice to control your mind your thinking your move and other part related to your heath in one time. For example went you get a ball you must to think how to control it, what you want to do weather pass or shoot and you must make your self in a calm condition so you can make a perfect move.
Now a days there a many profesional soccer player in the word they can make many skill and maintain their stamina in the field at a long time. This group of people had became a famous person on earth. Football also had became one of the best way to bound a good friendship between country and we can see now we have many football championship like English Premier League and Copa America.
In Hirosaki University I enter football club to futher my practice and training in soccer. We play every saturday, sunday and monday.

What is your favorite character in the movie?

What characters do you like the most?
I like Joliet Jake, one of the blues brothers. His silly and funny acts attract me. He plays a frivolous man in earnest.

Anyway, this movie must have cost a lot of money foolishly: so many cars are wrecked and the cast are pretty gorgeoous...

About "Blues Brothers"

It's interesting movie. I was exited in actions and songs, but I couldn't understand the detail of the story. I want to know why the woman wanted to kill the brothers and the relation between them.

Thursday, January 31, 2008

Blues Brothers

I can't understant why the women killed the brothers.
And,why the brothers need the money?
This movie was very interesting, but I can't understand them.

Please tell me!

Blues Brothers was really interesting.But, I can't understand why they were doing such things at all.If you could understand the story,please tell me outline.

About The Blues Brothers

It was my first time to see a foreign film without subtitles and to tell the truth it was difficult for me to understand the import of a story. But action scene and music were really exciting. And I was surprised at the cast. I know James Brown, Ray Charles and Twiggy. And I looked over about cast, Steven Spielberg was appeared as a clerk in charge of tax payment! I have a dim remembrance the scene.

Why a woman allowed the Blues Brothers?

I want to know why a woman stopped killing the Blues Brothers.At first,she tried to kill them.But she allowed them in the end and kissed one brother.I couldn't catch what they said.
Please tell me about it.

The Brues Brothers

I like the movie very much.
The action, music, and dance were very exciting and wonderful!!
I like the song whose name is "everybody needs somebody".
Is the woman who tried to kill the brothers Jake's former girlfriend?

I want to watch the movie once more.

Was Twiggy in the movie?

I found Twiggy in a credit roll. I think she appeared in the scene before blues brothers go to the concert hall. Is she the same person to Twiggy who is a world-famous model ? I don't know whether she also has an acting career or not.

Friday, January 25, 2008

Did you recognize Steven Spielberg in the movie?

Yes, believe it or not, Steven Spielberg didn't direct this film, but he did play a bit part. Can anyone tell me what part Steven Spielberg played in The Blues Brothers?

About "The Blues Brothers"

This movie is extremely fun. I was surprised that a lot of famous musician acted as key persons, such as Ray Charles (as a music shop clerk) and James Brown (as a Reverend) and so on. Although I could hardly understand performers' English, I could feel what they're trying to say, so I enjoyed several funny scenes. Watching movies with no Japanese subtitle inspires me to listen to English carefully. I really want to watch sequels to this movie.

Thursday, January 24, 2008

About The Blues Brothers

I have never seen the movie.
It was very excited me.When I saw Ray Charles I was so surprised.The music of using this movie was interesting and I enjoyed it. But I couldn't understand completely what they said.So I will try to understand what they say as fully as possible.
I would like to see the movie quickly.

The Blues Brothers

I can hardly understand the story,but this movie was very interesting.Especialy music used in the movie is great.There are many songs which Idon't know who sing but I have heared since ever.Scene everyone began to sing and dance was very very funny.

Tuesday, January 22, 2008

About ''The Blues Brothers''

I like this movie very much.
Though I could'nt know what they said,I enjoyed songs ,dances and actions.
Especially songs were interesting! I want to know what meaning they sang.
I'm looking forward to the continuation of the movie.

Wednesday, January 16, 2008

Reaction to "The Blues Brothers"

I like this movie very much. My favorite scene is a dramatic car chase. It kept me on the edge of my seat. Songs and Dances were exciting too.
I pay attention to a woman who is after the blues brothers. I'm looking forward to her large-scale attacks.
I want to see more to come soon!

Tuesday, January 15, 2008

movie "The Blues Brothers"

About "The Blues Brothers"

I watched the movie for the first time.
It was very interesting!! I couldn't understand what they said, but their dances and
actions really delighted me.

In Winter vacation,I got a driver's licence.Because I rarely went to motor school in the first half, the second half was very busy .I have to take writing exam in my home town.So winter vacaton was good chance.when I finished the exam,I was disturbed about result because I worry answer in 6 question.But I succeeded the exam.For this effort,I finaly got a driver's licence.
I'm sorry that I have no pictures.

My new year without holidays


In winter vacation, I went to my hometown because my family moved to new house.
First, I packed up everything in old house. Whenever I found dear thing, my hands which had been working since then are completely dead.
Next work, taking them to new house is the most hard. A refrigerator landed on my father's foot, and my mother had a muscular pain, besides all this, because of the cold and dry air, I had cought and been suffering a bad cold.
At last, we did cleaning and adjustment. Of course, according Japanese tradition, we were purified our house . It's like cleaning spirits. Adjustments had been kept on since I returned to Hirosaki, and maybe have been keeping even now.
In conclusion, this vacation spent for moving, not for rest, in addition, it leaved fatigue and cold to my body and pushed in my bed...

New Year's Eve


How did you spend this New Year's Eve? I went to a shrine with my friends to pray to Gods at the beginning of the New Year. 5 hours before that, I practiced my club activity, the Iai. Of course nobody came doing the Iai because of eve. However, I could concentrate my mind on drawing my sword, and it's a meaningful moment. In a kendo hall, it's cold and quiet. I thought that such a odd New Year's Eve was not bad.
Instead of attendances at practices of winter vacation, thesedays I'm tending to absent myself from training...

My winter vacation.


It was too short for me a winter vacation. First, I participated in a four-days intensive course. We went to APPI ski resort in Iwate prefecture. This is a picture which I took at APPI. It was my first time to snowboarding so I fell over many times. And I got harsh muscular pain. But I enjoyed not only snowboarding but also delicious meal and hot spring in a hotel. I want to join it again.
I went straight home when I came back to Hirosaki from intensive course. I usually go home by a sleeper express and it takes about ten hours. On New Year's Day, I visited a shrine with my friends who were same high school. I thought of my high school days with nostalgia.

Perfaista


Look at this photo. It's "perfaista". The size of this perfait is about 30cm across in a diameter and 20cm height. It is well-known to young people in Aomori.

I ate it with my four friends on New Year's Day. It was so big that we got tired of it. But we could eat it completely.

You can eat it at "La Fonte" which is in a commercial building at Aomori station. I recommend you to eat it with large number of people.

Finally, I paid a visit to a shrine on New Year's Day. I drew a fortune slip,but it's not so well.


I very much enjoyed winter vacation.

A strange Christmas tree

There is a superstition in Japan that the cause of earthquake is an eel. People of former days thought eel has magical power, I would say. In our time, we recoginize the existence of electric eel. So, I found news about electric eel.
KAKAMIGAHARA, Gifu -- An aquarium filled with exotic fish here is using an electric eel to power lights on a Christmas tree. Each time the electric eel at the Aqua Toto Gifu aquarium touches a copper wire in its tank, it sends power that lights up globes decking a Christmas tree.

It may be that we can use ell power generation in the future.

Spoils ending of ''I Am Legend''

An American actor Will Smith came to Japan in December 4 to promote his new movie ''I Am Legend’’. In a press interview, he spoiled ending of the movie. According to Reuters, Akiva Goldsman who is a co-producer and co-screenwriter of the movie shouted ''Don’t give away the ending! ’’. And the press handlers asked the press to keep the ending secret. The Mainichi Newspaper says it may be a reaction against his lonely filming. Because his role is the last person on the earth. This happening may reduce viewers and box-office profits.The movie is scheduled for release in both Japan and the United States in December 14, 2007.
