Hello!

My name is Natsuki Funakoshi.
I am in a faculty of humanities.
My hometown is Rokunohe town of Aomori prefecture. It takes about 2 hours to go to Hirosaki from Rokunohe by the car. So I am living alone in Hirosaki. Living alone is hard but I think it will be a good experience in my life.
I like to reading. Do you know Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's "Sherlock Holmes"? I like the novel very much. Someday, I would like to read the novel in the original.
I am interested in English. In future, I would like to be an interpreter. So I want to improve my English skills in this class. And of course, I also want to enjoy this class!

last write......

I'm very sorry for being so late like this. Actually I had went to Tokyo on the 1st of august so I had forgotten about this last homework. I just can back to Hirosaki last night.
I like to say that I'm so happy in the class because I'm learning new thing. In Malaysia we didn't studied paragraph because Malay essay an English essay structure is similar. But now went I studied how to write the good paragraph it gave me a lot of new information an skill on how to manage the paragraph. In Malaysia we are understanding the paragraph on our own by every day class and writing.
I would like to thank sir PHILIPS for teaching us in a very relax condition and in a very easy way. You had gave me a new skill and perception about writing. If next semester there a an opportunity for me to take your class I will take it.
I hope all of us can still keep in touch between each other.
thank for every thing

Academic Writing

I wrote that I wanted to raise my ability of English in my first assignment and as I wrote, I learn a lot from this class. During my high school days, I had few opportunities to write paragraphs and the only thing I did in the class was reading. Through this class, I have many opportunities to write in English under the direction of the best teacher. At first, I didn’t know what ‘Academic writing’ is. But due to the class, I was able to acquire the skills needed for this and my writing ability has become much better. Academic writing has other effects on my English ability. Because I have learned how to write logically, my idea has become clearer and my speaking ability has become much better, too. Although class has finished, I has been keeping my English writing practice.

Lastly, I want to say thank you to Dr. Philip and all the members in the class. I was happy to be with all of you. Good Bye!

Good Bye

I am deeply grateful to Mr. Philips for teaching me. I was not good at writing very much but now I think my writing skill improved compared to the first class. To do my homework every class is very hard for me but I think it brought up my writing.

The most interesting class was to watch Romeo and Juliet. The movie was very interesting and impressive. I feel that I want to watch it again. How to write a essay was also very good lesson for me. I could learn the rules when I write a essay. When I write something, I will keep the rules.

Finally I was able to learn a lot of things in this class. Thank you very much.

Good bye everyone !!

This is the last homework. so, I want to say impression about this ⅢB class.
I like English very much. But, in all honesty, I felt hard homework weekly in this class.
However, I thank professor philips for to let us do homework.
Because I think I can make great progress with my English.
And, I could watch the movie that I didn't see in this class.

Now,I miss this class.

My dream is to be a teacher in elementary school. I will teach English, too.
So, I will do my best to brush up English skill from now onward.

Thank you !! and good bye!!
Have a nice summer vacation !!

Good-bye!

This is the last homework. At first, I don't have confidence in my writing skill. So it is hard for me to write English paragraphs on this blog every week. However I write English paragraph every week, I could accustom to write, and I came to feel it interesting. I could learn a lot of things from this 3B English class, for example how to make a convincing paragraph. I am still unskilled in English, but I'll study to improve my English in this summer vacation.
It is also interesting for me to watch movies in the class. These experience and knoeledge are precious things for me.
Thank you very much!

Long Good by

I learned a lot by this class of English 3B. Forinstance, it is writing of the paragraph. Teacher was said that the writing of the paragraph would be suited most by the first class. because I had heared the word paragraph, I thought that a class is not significant would be done in future. However, the writing of the paragraph was noticed to attend the teacher`s class, and not to be understood at all. After that, the class was gradually becoming happy. I think learning by this teaching English 3B to be useful for the use of English because of special study, and I want to valueit. It was a very happy for taught the witing of the paraguraph, and having show movie up to now class. Thank you and good-by.

Good-bye message

This is the last assignment in iiib class.
At first, I was poor at writing English paragraph. I wonderd if I could keep up with this class, but once this class started, my anxiety was removed. This class is very homey! I could make progress with my English skill gradually.
This blog is also instructive for me. By watching other classmates' paragraph, I could learn many things.
I wish I could learn more...
Thank you! Good-bye!

Good bye message

This is the last assignment. Time has passed so quickly, and now the English ⅢB class will be finished. When I entered Hirosaki University, I didn't like English very much. The reason was that I didn't know how to write English sentences accurately. But through the English ⅢB class, I knew how to write English by a paragraph. So it is very nice for me to be able to take this class.
Thank you!

Good Bye!

I leaned many things in this class. In high school, we don't study about the essay. So it is my first time to write my essay in ENGLISH! However, thanks to Mr.fillips & the thick text book, I got the knowledge how to wright in ENGLISH. The essay & the blogs on every weeks make me be used to writing ENGLISH essay. Though the leaning period is too short, the skills I got in this class will make me help in my future. Thank you for teaching me!

Goodbye message

Good evening.This is the last homework.

I feel time has passed very quickly.I can't believe I have taken the III B class 15 times.
I feel as if I entered Hirosaki University a few days ago...

Through the III B class,I have learned many things.

First,I learned about paragraph writing.
Before entering the University,I could only write a sentense but didn't know paragraph.
So I'm very happy to learn how to make paragraph.In addition,"unity and coherence,supporting details,facts,quotation and statistics" skill is valuable.
By using these skills,my paragraph becomes more meaningful,interesting.
I keep the textbook and use when I need it!

Next,I hed never tried a blog,so it is very exiting for me.
Everyweek I wrote a blog hard,and enjoyed seeing others' blogs.

I think iiib class was very valuable.

Thank you everyone!
Goodbye!!

Good bye

This is the last homework.So,I would like to do my best in this homework.
When I entered Hirosaki Univercity, I was not good at writing English.So,I do not like English.But,now I like English very much,especially writing English,because I studied English very hard in class ⅢB.So,I want to say thank you everyone in class ⅢB.
Thank you.

Good-bye

When I knew that I have to study English in 3B culass, I thought I can't take a credit. Becouse writing English is hard for me!Homework is hard for me.But I did my best and I am able to like English.

Romeo and Juliet

I am very glad to watch this movie all.
By watching this movie, I can learn that love is great and unbreakable. The scene Juliet stabbed herself to death with sword is forceful and sad. Their loves were not rewarded, but I think they live happily in the other world because they can live together.
By the way, "West Side Story" is similar to "Romeo and Juliet." Please watch it too. You'll be impressed.

Romeo & Juliet

First of all, it was nice for me to watch such a famous movie in class. But the movie's last was shocking.Though I had known the last scene of it, the shock of watching the last scene was very big. A movie both the actor and actress of leading part die in the last scene is the first at this movie.
I was interested in Shakespeare's works,so I want to buy the book or the DVD of his works and appreciate it.

Impression of the film

I'm sorry to be late.
I watched "Romeo and Juliet" for the first time, but this movie was not what I had expected. I heard that it was a tragic movie, but it was not as tragic as I had thought. Almost all of the music which was used in it was cheerful. Thanks to this, the movie's impression became cheerful.

The film I want to see

I' m sorry to be late.
I want to see "Romeo and Juliet". The reason why is that I wanted to see a movie which I knew but haven't seen. But I wanted to see it truly. Though I knew it is written by Shakespeare,I haven't seen it. So I am looking forward to seeing it.

Free Assignment

I'm sorry to be late.
It has come to August. In August, the All-Japan High School Baseball Championship Tournament will be held. I like it very much , so I look forward to it every year.
A representitive high school has been chosen one after another , but I want to cheer for the team of Iwate prefecture, which I was born in. This year's representitive high school is a high school attached to a Morioka university. Iwate's team always lose in the first game, so I want them to win somehow in this year.

Romeo and Juliet

I enjoyed watching Romeo and Juliet in the last class.The ending of Romeo and Juliet was sad beyond the discription.I was so moved.And I thought that this movie was masterpiece.So,I want to watch this movie again in the summer vacation.And I am going to watch movie in the future.

Romeo and Juliet

Romeo and Juliet's ending is very sad.
My expectation is diffirent from the reality.
I was absorbed in watching the movie.
The content is very interesting.
I think the writer has very nice talent.
I think that it is very nice to watch famous movies.
I want to watch many famous movies in summer vacation.

Romeo & Juliet

That movie was very impressive!
One hatred creates another one. Then the hatred make another ・・・. That is a vicious circle!
I'm anxious for whether I can love anyone I like like that. However, the movie was great. I want to see other movies you chose.
Why not see them in the last 3B class?

Wednesday, July 23, 2008

My feeling of the Romeo & Juliet

In the class, Dr. Philips said that Romeo & Juliet has had big effects on American literary works and I was convinced of that. This movie was wonderful! In the middle of the movie, I think that Romeo and Juliet will have a happy ending so I was surprised at the deaths of them. I can't read the thoughts of the Shakespeare!

It is a pity that Romeo can’t receive the letter from the priest! I think that before starting the plan, the priest had to make sure that Romeo had received the letter. It was his error… I think that the error was the key point of the discovery of the movie, however .

I become interested in the works of the Shakespeare and I’m going to read some of his works in this summer!

Romeo & Juliet

This story was very sad. I have never seen such a tragedy.
After I watched it. I could'nt return real world for a while.
Because I felt real sympathy with their.
Their love could save the country of future and move people's mind.

I reconfirmed Shakespeare in greatness.

Romeo&Juliet

How are you?
I was happy to watch Romeo&Juliet and I was moved.
The movie is said to be a masterpiece,so I think I should watch it in order to enlarge my experience.
I hope they can go to Heaven together and live happily.
I think they were great because they carried out their love.They didn't change their mind.
If I were Romeo or Juliet,I couldn't kill myself.I might search for another love... Their power of love was very wonderful,I think.

A quirk of fate was cruelty.If a messenger was a horse or other animals that could run faster than a donkey,Romeo might be able to get the very important message.If Romeo had waited a little more,he might be able to notece thet Juliet was alive!So the end was very sad to me.

I would like to buy the book,Romeo&Juliet.
See you.

Romeo and Juliet

I was so moved this movie when I watched the last scene. I have ever read the story in the book but I have never watched it in the movie. The impression of the movie is different from that of the book. The movie impressed me very much. Especially the last scene was so good. I was able to enjoy Romeo and Juliet in the book and movie but I prefer the movie.

Romeo and Juliet

I had wanted to watch this movie for a long time, because I heard that this movie is masterpiece but I couldn't watch this. So I'm glad to watch.
I learned strength of love. I haven't gone through that love,and I think it is same for most of people all over the world. But I think I want to find a female such as Juliet to Romeo. I think that I want to take care of my girlfriend.

Impression of the movei

I never though that I ended in such a sad end because
I saw this movie. I was very suprised to have though the end by the happy ending that Rmeo and Juliet to was a love story. Neither Romeo nor Juliet understood whether to become a conception that I also died because my important person had died to me why. Certainly, I did not think that it died either threfore though it was painful that an important person died.

My movie

I'm sorry,I'm late.

My favorite movie is "hura-girl"
This story is that hura-girl team is composed of laymans in certain country,and the team practice hura-dance. The team parformance last,but the process is hard. If you watch last dance, you will be not able to help crying. The movie give us warmth of human beings. This film move us, because its warmth. You should watch this.

Free topic

I'm sorry, I'm late.

I would like to write essay about cycling.
I went cycling from HIROSAKI city to AOMORI city a few months ago. Cycling in fine weather is very pleasant. But, when I was in hill to go to AOMORI, it bigan to rain. Oh no!! Besides it, I realized I lost my way. I thought I die. But, human's vital energies is greatful!! I am here.
In my summer vacation, I'm planing to go HOKKAIDO by my bicycle.

My hobby

I'm sorry, I'm late.

My hobby is skiing. I have done it since I was a elemantary school student in my first grade.Ever year, I had gone to skiing school until I was a junior high scool student in my first grade. Thanks to this, I came to be a good skier. When I was 13 years old, I went to HOKKAIDO to ski. Then I was very happy, because quality of snow is very high. HOKKAIDO is colder than AOMORI, so snow is knit more. I want to go to HOKKAIDO again.

My favorite

I'm sorry. I'm late.

My favorite musician is SPITZ.
Their sound is clear and great. Especially,word is so great.I think that song is composed of word, so song whose word is bad can't be good song.
I like them for 7 years.One day, they came to AOMORI and performanced when I was a junior high school student in my third grade.Live performance is better than record,so I like them more. probably, I like them until I die.

A quirk of fate

Hello

the story "Romeo and Juliet " is known as beutiful love story. But I didn`t know their love came to such an unexpected and a sad ending. I can`t help thinking if the two parties didnI` t stand opposition, If the postman was in time for Romeo` s leaving, If juliet waked up before Romeo died. their love was a playing of future. If it had not been for a quirk of fate, they would be happy. But in spite of the hard situation, they stock to their love. So many people hand a story down from generation to generation.
By the way , I remembered the story like "Romeo and Juliet " It is "Gang of New York " and "SONEZAKI SINJYU" . If you have a time, piease see it.

Impression of the movie

I'm glad to watch "Romeo and Juliet" to the last. I sympathize with Romeo and Juliet, because they were involved in useless conflict. However, I think that they were not necessarily unhappiness. They died by sad destiny, but they were devoted to each other. In my opinion, to meet the person to want to be together eternally is wonderful.
I want to watch the movie again and I will try to read in the original.

Romeo&Juliet

I am glad that I could watch the movie to the end.I enjoied Shakespeare's masterpiece.

When I watched, I think "Why Romeo&Juliet are passionate!? " Romeo and Juliet loved at first sight each other.Also they decided their wedding!I can't understand their mentality.I want to say that clam down please.And The minister used a donkey to sending a very important message to Romeo.If it was not donkey but horse......I was sad all the more.

In summer vacation,I want to watch a lo of various kind movies!

What I got from Romeo & Juliet

When I finished seeing "Romeo & Juliet", I was very moved but I had a question: what is love?. Surely it is amazing that he and she can die because the lover dies. Moreover, they don't hesitate to choose death when they realize the lover's death. If you had the most important person and he or she died, could you choose death? I can't do that. So I think that the love of Romeo and Juliet is very strong. However, is it true love that his death follows shortly after her and her death follows after him? Some people may say yes and others may say no. I think that this was one way to show love and they could show love to the other with other ways.


I don't know that this love is true love. However, I can understand the power of love. In this story, Romeo and Juliet aren't bound together but their love gives a chance to shorten the distance between the Montagues and the Capulets. These families have hated each other very much, but the grudge comes to an end because of love of the couple.


We were given a chance to think about love from Shakespeare. This is a big question but I'd like to keep thinking of it from now on.

Romeo and Juliet

This love story is beautiful, but filled with sorrow. Why should Romeo and Juliet choose death? If they were born now, they would have a different story. They can contact with each other. This ending will never happen, and they will be happy.

Romeo and Juuliet.

Hello.
We watched Romeo and Juliet at the last class.I thought we couldn't watch all the movie, and so I was happy to watch it again.
The story of Romeo and Juliet is that "The first day they met, the second day they got married, and the third day they died."The passion was unbelievable to me.Why couldn't they keep a cool head?Their love was so blind.
The ending was very sad.They loved them each other, but I wonder if they were truly happy.How about do you think?
See you!

final love...............

hello

Very beautiful story that what i can say about this story. But as normal story ending with sad death. I not clearly understand the biggest conflict that happen after Romeo kill Juliet cousin and why exactly the plan that the father had plan so Juliet must pretend death? What ever I like the song that is the important thing. There are so many poem inside the story and I can't understand the real mean of all of it. The end was a little sad I think but that is the fact of this story ending with death of the couple. Moreover I think the problem is the crisis between their family that make them become like that. It is not their fault to fall in love with each other because it is their destiny. I feel sympathy for them.
In conclusion it is a beautiful love story.

Thursday, July 17, 2008

Romeo and Juliet

I had known the plot of "Romeo and juliet" , but I had never thougt this story is such passionate and beautiful !! The movie made a deep impression on me. I feel Romeo and Juliet exactly fall in love. I want to read the book to know the story more deeply.
I understood why "Romeo and Juliet is considered to be the origin english literature. I know many stories like this , and Ithink "Romeo and juliet " has an effect on not only literature but also movie , TV drama and so on.

Romeo and Juliet

I know the story of Romeo and Juliet,but I have not watched the movie of Romeo and Juliet.So I really enjoyed watching Romeo and Juliet.
Performers were good.Their performances were beautiful. The music was also beautiful.I enjoyed them.
I was afraid that I couldn't watch all of Romeo and Juliet. So I want to watch all of this movie.

Romeo and Juliet

Romeo and Juliet is very interesting story.
I enjoyed it because I like love story.
I realized that love isn't dependent on time or conditions.
Love is forever.
The movie enables me to understand love.
And I can learn English.Hearing English is very difficult for me.
I want to be able to hear english totally.
I want to watch it again.

Romeo and Juliet

I watched "Romeo and Juliet" for the first time.It was very visionary.The picture seemed to sparkle, I felt.Romeo and Juliet were passionate.I was surprised at their passion.They met and soon fell in love.Young people today may lose such passion.We must recover it, I think.Romeo and Juliet lived in love.They will continue to tell us what live is.

Romeo and Juliet

I think this movie is very interesting. I know this movie but I have never watched it in English. It is ,of course , difficult for me to watch it in English but it is a good lesson for me. I think everyone can enjoy this movie regardless of generation because this movie is a masterpiece. To hear and understand English is still hard for me now ,so I want to try to study English harder.

Romeo and Juliet

I was very impressed by this movie. Especially the scene which Romeo meets Juliet secretly at the balcony in her bedroom is very emotional. This scene is well-known and their loves are clearly described in this scene.I think not only I but also others are impressed by this scene.
And what's more,the girl who plays Juliet is very very cute!!!(笑)Anyway I want to watch this movie all!

My feeling of the so-far “Romeo and Juliet”

I found two specific feeling of the movie in my heart. (It goes without saying that the story is wonderful!) First, I was surprised by the simple story of the movie. Because there are no redundancies in the movie, I was able to concentrate on the story. I think this characteristic doesn’t appear in the today’s movies very much. ‘Romeo and Juliet’ entertain us by the story itself while today’s movies are supported by other things such as CG. Second, I was moved by the lines. I can’t explain how I felt when I heard them, but I think these lines are considered very-very-very carefully by the Shakespeare. Because I am Japanese, it was difficult for me to find what kinds of spices are added to the lines, but I found some spices and surely felt something special when I heard the lines. Now I’m very looking forward to watch the rest of the movie tomorrow!

Romeo&Julieto

I think this movie is very interesting for me. First scene of this movie begin with battle between Montagyu and Kyupiletto. I thought this movie is only consist of love story and What I know about Romeo and Juliet is that Romeo shout for Juliet under the tower which Juliet is confined. So I surprised at this happening. In addition I think this movie tell us very simple Romeo and Juliet story. If there is chance to see this movie again I want to see this movie to the last.

Romeo and Juliet

I enjoyed watching this movie very much.
I was fascinated with this movie. so I am eager to watch continuance about this movie.
I could see why this movie is immortal works.
Nothing is the most ardent than difficulty love. I want to fell in love like this movie.
I have never seen such passionate love as that before.
I think Shakespeare as the auther of Romeo and juliet is great person.

Romeo&Juliet

I know Romeo&Juliet but I haven't watched the movie.
Last week,I watched it.

I think it is very very impressive and wonderful.
The scene Romeo&Juliet met each other was very romantic.I thought they loved each other from the bottom of their heart! However,I feel sad because they can't get married...
Are there any problems that we can't get married only because the relationship between one family and another family is bad even these days?

In addition,the music was beautiful and it involved me in the movie!

I want to watch all!

My impression of Romeo and Juliet

It is said that Romeo and Juliet is a masterpiece, and I felt so when I saw the movie. This is because the introduction of Romeo and Juliet is the same as that of modern dramas and movies. For example, Romeo's family line is the enemy of Juliet's family line. In other words, he is never allowed to love her and she is never allowed to love him. This relationship is used in the romantic dramas and movies. As for "Titanic", Jack is poor and Rose is rich, so many people around them are opposed to love each other. This premise is very similar to Romeo and Juliet.

Romeo and Juliet was made several decades ago but this style is used still now. I think that this is the originator of the romantic dramas and movies.

Romeo and Juliet

I think this is very wonderful movie. I was happy to watch this movie.
All performers were good. In paticular, I was impressed by the scene Romeo and Juliet met first. This was a fateful encounter. The music was also good. It matches the scene.
I was afraid that I couldn't watch until the last. So I want to watch all of this movie.

Romeo and Juliet

It was enjoyable for me to watch the movie " Romeo & Juliet ". To my amazement, the heroine is very pretty and her performance is marvelous. I kept my eyes glued to the screen.
The music is also beautiful. I think that it represent the feelings and destiny of Romeo and Juliet.
So I want to watch the movie to the last.

Romeo&Juliet

I very enjoied the movie last English class!The movie is wonderful, just as I expected. Heroine is very cut!And I was able to enjoy attractive music,scenery too. SO when I was watching the movie, I thought " Is it true that this movie was made 50 years ago?!"

I have a regret that I coundn't watch to the end. Maybe I will watch this movie in summer vacation!!

Tuesday, July 15, 2008

Romeo & Juliet

I was happy to see Romeo & Juliet. Though I had seen new one, this old one was very fun! What I felt happy was that I could hear "O, Romeo, Romeo! wherefore art thou Romeo?" Last time I tried to understand the words which hero & heroine said. However, it was too hard for me. Next time I will make more efforts & enjoy seeing the movie!

Romeo and Juliet

In this class, I enjoyed this movie very much. This is the first time I watch this movie. Juliet is too young to marry, I think. But, in period of this movie, she is ready to marry. It is surprising to me.
This story is so poetic, but I want to understand it.

Sunday, July 13, 2008

romeo... juliet...

hello
For me it was a very wonderful story. The part that I like the most is the poem and music that had been presented in front of the audience at party time in Juliet house. I like the music. It make me feel the beauty of the love.
But something that I feel regrade is I can't understand all what they talk about because there are so many poem that been use in the story skrip. Their dialogue too high for me hahaha. I'm STILL a beginner in English that why I can't catch the meaning.

Thursday, July 10, 2008

The movie I want to see

I want to see Romeo and Juliet.This movie is seen by a lot of people around the world.It is one of the most famous movies.Of course I know the story of Romeo and Juliet,but I have not watched the movie of Romio and Juliet.So I want to watch Romio and Juliet.

What I Want to See is・・・

I want to see "Romeo & Juliet". There are many people who want to see it, then my idea may be boring. But there are two reasons for this.

  • First, "Romeo & Juliet" is too famous and there are nobody who don't know the story. So if we see the movie in English, the knowledge will help us understand the contents. Therefore it is the most suitable.
  • Second, (this is the most important for me) I'm not good at listening! So I may be unable to understand the interests of other movies if we see the other movies. I want to listen & understand & enjoy the contents of movies,too.

Therefore I suggest that we should see "Romeo & Juliet" in 3B class!

Casablanca


Hello .


I know many students want to watch "Romeo and Juliet".But I would like to go other way. So I want to watch " Casablanca ". Maybe, almost all of student don`t remember this movie. In fact , I hadn`t know Casablanca since professor philips introduced it for us . However I was interested in this movie since then , because the title "Casablanca " is very very splendid and lovely ! And Casablanca is ranked high in U.S. American Film Institute chosed this movie as second in Ameican best movies . Further more, there is a famous line in it. It is "Here`s looking at you , kid ".

The film I want to see

I want to see "Romeo and Juliet". I have ever seen this work of ballet and I have ever listened to music of this work,but I have never seen this work as a movie. So I would like to see it.

The Movie

I want to watch 'Romeo and Juliet'. I have two reasons for this. First, I know Shakespeare but I haven’t read his works or watched the movies based on them. Second, I often watch SF, comedy, and action. So I seldom watch romance movies. But I’ve been interested in this kind ever since. I think this class is the best opportunity for me to watch 'Romeo and Juliet’!

"Romeo and Juliet"

I would like to watch 'Romeo and Juliet'.
Because I have never seen it.
I think this movie seems to be famouse on the surface ,but it is really unknown.
Now I am taking class of English literature.
I learned about it in class. So, I am very interested in this movie.
This movie is just what I wanted to see.

Romeo and Juliet

I would like to see 'Romeo and Juliet.' I know this story, but I have not seen this movie.
I know this story long times ago. So, maybe I forget details. In fact, I cannot remember the middle of the story. And the other part of the story have unclear part.

It is a very famous story. I think it is worth seeing.

Movies


I want to watch "Romeo and Juliet".This story is very famous, but I have never watched it.


This story was made about 400 years ago and now is watched and read by many people. I want to learn why this story attracts so many people.


This is the reason I want to watch this movie.


BLADE RUNNER


I want to watch the movie 'BLADE RUNNER '. This film stars Harrison Ford. This film is opened to the public in 1982. Some people say this movie is not only SF but also film noir. I think the theme of this movie is important for us.

Movie

I would like to watch "Romeo and Juliet".
I study about William Shakespeare now. He wrote a lot of famous and wonderful stories, for example "Hamlet" and "The Marchant of Venice". Avobe all, I like "Romeo and Juliet".
It has been played many times on movies, video dramas, and stages.
Actually, I have watched the movie which is played by Leonardo DiCaprio.
However there are six movies of "Romeo and Juliet" to the best of my knowledge.
They would have each various good points in stage direction, music, costumes and so on.
So I would like to watch the others.

What I want to watch is....


I want to see 第17捕虜収容所.

I write some reasons as follows.


The first reason.
I was born on 1989,so of course I heven't experienced the World War Ⅱ.
I heve learned it at school but I was only taught the fact that there was the WWⅡ,wasn't taught how soldiers thought,performed,led their life.

I feel that world is forgetting very important lessons learned from wars these days.
So by watching the movie,I would like to consider peace.

The second reason.
I don't like romantic dramas.I like SF,thrilling ones,comical ones and so on.
When I see the review,the movie consists of some factors I like and I became interested it.


That is why I want to see the movie,第17捕虜収容所.

I want to see


I want to see the movie "Romeo and Juliet". I think this movie is the most famous love story in the world. I have an interest, but I have never red and whatched.

In this movie,Olivia Osuna played the part of Juliet.At the time,she was only fifteen years old. I think she was very pretty such as a fairy.And Leonard Whiting acted as Romeo when he was only sixteen years old.So I want to see her and his performance.

Also I listen to that scenery,town,clothes,small tools and music in this movie are very beautiful!! Making a film was done in Firenze.These are interested for me.
For these reasons,I want so much to see "Romeo and Juliet".

The movie I'd like to see


I would like to see the movie: Blade Runner. This movie is made in America in 1982 but it is still popular. I think that this is because the main theme can apply to the present age. In this movie, human beings kill replicants, who is made by genetic engineering. In other words, they are cyborgs and their appearances are same as human beings. However, their life span is decided. This is 4 years. The end of the life human beings have is unclear, while the end of the life replicants have is clear. From this difference, this movie tells us the importance of life.
Shall we think about several problems? What is genetic engineering? What is cyborgs? And what is life?

Romeo and Juliet


I'd like to watch "Romeo and Juliet."It was written by one of the most famous dramatist, Shakespeare.He had a great influence on English language.English he used is very wonderful!I hear the title many times, but I've never watched it.And so I choose "Romeo and Juliet." It is a good opportunity to watch it.They came to an unhappy end.But the drama hold a special attraction.That's why they are still loved since the drama was written in 1595, I think.

MY MOVIE


hello

I like to watch the movie of "THIEF OF BAGHDAD" because at Malaysia there are series drama about it in the television. It is so exciting and had been watch by all of my family member except my father because he has to work in a day. hahahaha. I never had experience watching the movie so I really want to watch it. Maybe there a some different between drama and the movie. In drama this story had combination of love story between the princess and the thief, a magician story same like ALADDIN story and war between good and dark power. I think all of us need to watch it. Moreover I also like the story of ALADDIN which is one of the famous story in Malaysia seen I was at kinder garden. At Malaysia also there are so many movie and drama related to this type of movie like the story of "ALI BABA" and "HASSAN THE THIEF"

I think Aladdin is not a famous story in Japan so let watch this movie.

Quote and link the news

I am sorry to be late.

Beijing The Japan women's 4x100-meter relay team will run in two meets this weekend in Europe in an attempt to qualify for the Beijing Olympics, the Japan Association of Athletic Federations has announced.
The team of Tomoko Ishida, Sakie Nobuoka, Chisato Fukushima and Momoko Takahashi, along with alternate Mayumi Watanabe, are entered in the Primo Nebiolo Memorial meet in Turin, Italy, on Friday, then will compete in Kaunas, Lithuania, on Sunday.
The quartet set a national record of 43.67 seconds at the pre-Olympic meet in Beijing late last month to improve its rank to 17th in the world--just .03 seconds behind Australia for the 16th and final qualifying spot.
The top 16 teams, based on the average of their two best results recorded between Jan. 1, 2007, and July 18 this year, qualify for Beijing.
Japan's other relay teams appear safely through. According to the latest rankings released May 25, the men's 4x100 team is fourth, while in the 4x400 event, the men are 10th and the women 12th.

Interresting thing for me

I am interested in international understanding. I am one of the Asians but I know very little about Asia. I will study about Asia, and I want to make friends who live not only in Asia but also all over the world. It is my dream.

Introduction of my pet

I have six dogs.When I was thirteen years old,my parents said that we wanted to keep dogs.At first,I was against keeping dogs because it is hard to take care of dogs and keeping dogs in the home is dirty.But now I am happy to live with dogs.











At first we kept one male dog. We kept two female dogs additionally because we wanted puppies. When I was fifteen years old,three puppies were born.They were very small and cute! Now they grew and became adult dogs.






Free gifts(giveaway)~おまけ商品~


There are various kinds of green tea sold at convenience stores. I buy a bottle of green tea every day, so I’m puzzled which one I should buy. These days, I buy the “Iemon(伊右衛門)” from Suntory because it has free gifs(おまけ商品), such as hand towel, hand mirror, and so on. They are not so bad when I use practically. Another bottle, “Fresh tea(生茶)” has small goods of giant panda. There are many examples like this in Japan. Some magazine which feature fashions have small bags of “HERMES”, “Louis Vuitton”, and “Chanel”. These companies say that it is good for not only customers but also for us because they can know what kinds of bags customers want. I found it very interesting that Japanese companies add one or two free gifts to merchandise from drinks to magazine with the corporation of other companies. I think this tendency is especially characteristic of Japan. I’ve never heard such things in other countries. Even if there are some goods like this, quality of free gift would be even lower than that of Japanese free gift.

When you go for a shopping next time, why don’t you pay attention to “Free gifts”?

Natto

Hello.
I'm from Ibaraki.Ibaraki is famous for mito natto.
I think natto is very delocious food.But some people don't like it.
Certainly,it smells strange.But its smell is very good for me.
I have not eaten natto since I came to Hirosaki.
I miss mito natto.

club

Today I introduce the club I belonged when I was junior high school student. I was a member of track and field club. I was a distance runner. Track and field is a battle against oneself and one`s record. So athletes make every effort to shorten their record, for example, changing form, placticing many times, and so on. Track and field seems an inconspicious sport, but it is very interesting. Let`s try to watch Olympic Games.

Singapore


Hello.
When I was in high school, I went to Singapore.I love it and so I tell you about it today.
Singapore is famous for Merlion, Centosa Island, Night Safari and so on!It has a lot of sights for sightseeing.I love Singapore in that many cultures are mixed.Mainly Chinese, Malaysian,Indian live in the country.
It's always in summer.It has a hot and humid climate.And Singapore is known as the clean city.That's really true.
Singapore is very small, but its charm is infinite!!!!I really want to visit there, again!!

I`m sorry to be late.
Recently, NBA final is end. I introduce what happens in the games and result.





BOSTON (AP) -- A blizzard of green-and-white confetti was in the forecast,
a
shiny trophy was being readied for its trip to the center of the parquet floor
and T-shirts and caps were hurriedly handed out to the rest of the new NBA
champions.
First, though, a final, fitting bow.
OAS_AD('TopRight');
The clock said 4:01 left, and the scoreboard read: Boston 116,
Los Angeles 81.
It was time for Paul Pierce, Kevin Garnett and Ray Allen to
come out -- together.
"I thought, they came in as a group, and I thought
we
should take them out as a group," Celtics coach Doc Rivers said.
The
Big
Three walked off as one, and into history.
With Bill Russell and
John
Havlicek
sitting courtside,
and Red Auerbach
surely lighting up a victory cigar
somewhere, these Celtics returned to
glory like the great Boston teams before
them, dominating the Los Angeles
Lakers
131-92
in Game 6 on Tuesday night.
For Pierce, Garnett and Allen,
this was moment they had
waited for, the one they used to wonder would ever
arrive. But they
sacrificed individual acclaim for team success, and with Rivers
as their
guide, the trio brought Boston back to the top with title No. 17.
"I'll be
forever linked to this city," said Garnett, who toiled for years in
Minnesota. "And
I'm more than grateful for that."
Almost an hour afterward,
Pierce, the
finals MVP who a year ago thought his days in Boston were over,
strolled
back onto the court.
"I didn't want a championship," he yelled to
no one
in particular. "I needed a championship. I ain't going nowhere. I'm
spending
the night."
In the closing minutes, Boston fans sang as if they
were in
a nearby pub, celebrating the first NBA championship won in the city
since
1986. They serenaded the newest champs with "Seven-teen" and taunted Kobe
Bryant and his Lakers, who were buried by a green-and-white
avalanche.
Garnett scored 26 points with 14 rebounds, Allen
scored 26 and Pierce, who
shook off a sprained right knee sustained in Game
1, added 17 for the Celtics, a
24-win team a year ago. Rajon Rondo had 21 points,
eight assists, seven rebounds
and six steals.
Boston built a 23-point
halftime lead and obliterated the
Lakers, who were trying to become the first team to
overcome a 3-1 deficit in
the finals. The 39-point win surpassed the NBA
record for the biggest margin of
victory in a championship clincher; the
Celtics beat the Lakers 129-96 in Game 5
of the 1965 NBA finals.
As the clock ticked down, Pierce doused Rivers with
red Gatorade. Owner Wyc Grousbeck, who named his
group Banner 17 to leave no
doubt about his goal, put an unlit cigar in his
mouth -- a tribute to Auerbach,
the patriarch who had a hand in the
franchise's first 16 titles.
Garnett
dropped to the parquet and kissed the
leprechaun at center court and then found
Russell, the Hall of Famer who taught him the
Celtic way, for a long embrace.
"You know you're a Celtic when other players
come up and congratulate you to
be here," said Garnett, the centerpiece
of a 7-for-1 trade pulled off last
summer by Boston general manager Danny Ainge, a former
Celtics guard. "They
explain the tradition. It's like coming into a frat."
It was Boston's first
title since the passing of Auerbach, and following
the game TD Banknorth Garden,
the "new" Garden, smelled of
one of his stogies. He must have been smiling as
the Celtics denied Lakers coach Phil Jackson
from overtaking him with a 10th
championship.
The Boston-Los Angeles
rivalry, nothing more than
black-and-white footage from the 60s and TV
highlights of players wearing short
shorts in the 80s to young hoops fans,
remains tilted toward the Atlantic Ocean.
The Celtics are 9-2 against the Lakers in the
finals.
Boston missed its
first crack at closing out the series in Game
5, but the Celtics didn't miss on
their second swing, running the Lakers out of the gym.
"Beat L.A.?" More
like "Beaten L.A."
Bryant, the regular-season MVP,
finished with 22 points
on 7-of-22 shooting.
He started 4-of-5 from the
field and seemed intent on
forcing a Game 7. But he missed seven shots in a
row and everywhere he went,
L.A.'s No. 24 ran smack into a wall of Boston
defense as high as the Green
Monster.
"They were definitely the best
defense I've seen the entire
playoffs," Bryant said. "I've seen some pretty
stiff ones and this was right up
there with them. The goal was to win a
championship, it wasn't to win MVP or
anything like that, it was to win a
championship."
With Garnett scoring 17
points and Pierce adding 10,
Boston built a 58-35 halftime lead, and unlike Game
2 when they let the Lakers trim a
24-point lead to two in the fourth quarter
before recovering, the Celtics
never stopped.
They pushed their lead to 31
in the third and a
mind-blowing 43 at one point.
No team had to work harder
for a
championship than these Celtics, who were playing in their record 26th
postseason game
after being pushed to seven by Atlanta and Cleveland before
beating Detroit
in six to win the Eastern Conference title.
They entered
Game 6 slowed
by injuries as Pierce, Kendrick Perkins (shoulder) and Rondo
(ankle) were
less than 100 percent. There was also uncertainty surrounding
Allen, who
stayed behind in Los Angeles following Game 5 after his youngest son
became
ill and was diagnosed with diabetes. The Celtics needed three planes to
get
back from L.A. and didn't get home until late Monday night.
But there
were no excuses, and just as they had while winning 66 games during the
regular
season, the Celtics got a record seven 3-pointers from Allen and
plenty of help
from their bench as P.J. Brown, James Posey, Leon Powe and rookie Glen "Big
Baby" Davis came in and contributed.
It was a group effort by this gang
in
green, which bonded behind Rivers, who borrowed an African word ubuntu
(pronounced
Ooh-BOON-too) and roughly means "I am, because we are" in English,
as the
Celtics' unifying team motto.
Rivers, who never won a title during 13
seasons as a player, was nearly run out of town last season as the proud
Celtics
dropped off the league's radar screen. But he remained confident,
boosted by
encouragement from his father, Grady, a former police lieutenant
who told him to
hang tough.
Grady Rivers died in the season's first
week, and never got to
see his son fulfill his dream.
As the final
seconds ticked off, Rivers
recalled his father.
"My first thought was
what would my dad say," Rivers
said, "and honestly I started laughing
because I thought he would probably say,
if you knew my dad, 'It's about
time. What have you been waiting for?"'
Notes: The Celtics set a finals
record with 18 steals. ... Allen was poked
in the left eye in the second
quarter by Lamar Odom and spent much of the second
quarter getting treatment
in the locker room. ... The Celtics joined Golden
State (1974-75) and
Portland (1976-77) as the only teams to win a championship
after missing the
playoffs the previous year. ... Boston went 48-7 at home,
including 13-1 in
the postseason. ... Jackson is 193-84 in the postseason.

Summer vacation



I' m looking forward to summer vacation, because I have a lot of things which I want to do.
First, I want to go to the seashore with my friends. It is our annual summer event and a opportunity to meet my friends again.
Second, I will study hard. I want to be good at English, so I will read many English books and practice speaking English.
I hope to make a lot of memories.

Teaching



Have you ever taught something to others? This is very difficult, I think. Since I began to work as a teacher in a cram school, I always feel that. For example, my student is very weak in fractional expressions so I never fail to give a test about them. At the end of a class, I ask whether he can understand this class or not, and he says,"Of course, I can do that". However, he can't solve fractional expressions I give him as a test!

Surely, teaching is very hard but I can grow up through it. Nowadays, I think of the following questions every day. How should I teach that? What ways to solve the problem he can understand easily? This experience is new for me and is very useful in the future. And I think that teaching is an important skill so I want to develop the skill more.

battle against oil


One day,I noticed that a bad smell was coming from kitchen. "Where is coming from?"I thought.

I looked for the cluprit. What do you think it is?


It was oily dirt of a ventilation fan. So I decided to clean it completely.

I wondered why that bad smell had developed although I didn't cook so much often.


At first,I look the ventilation fan. That was exactly what I thought.

Soon,I took the action.
The dirt was worse than I had expected.So I tried using various kinds of cleansers.

.

It took about an hour.I won.
The ventilation fan became very very very clean!I was happy.
Through the trying,I discovered the most useful cleanser was キュキュッと クエン酸入り.
Please use it when you clean something.

Thank you for reading.

Today I tell you my present cooking life!


In past days, I show the dishes I made. This is the second time. Now I live in a boarding house, so I don't have to cook myself. However, in order to grow up in various fields, I challenge to make dishes as one of the methods.


First menu is sauted dish of eggplant & poke with "miso". And second one is fried rice with a sticky sauce. There were some mistakes such as that I use too much oils or that I forgot buying eggs. But these were so good! I continue to cook from now too!

Traveler



Story of traveler


A traveler always has he/her own place that he/her need to reach in a certain period of time. But to be there he/her must to pass a desert, river and jungle. He must get he/her needs to continue the journey so he need to take a break at every place. But a good traveler will not spend so many times make other trip around the place because he/her still has along journey to continue. In other hand a bad traveler will spend a lot of time buy all stuff that he want and he feel very happy at that time. But he forgot that he need to complete a mission to reach another important place. So as a result he just feel happy a while at first and then face a terrible life in the rest of he/her live. So in conclusion we must to think a truth goals in doing something.


Man vs traffic light


WHY we must to obey to the rod near the road? Who is more powerful rod or human? Didn't you think you are a crazy person obey to the rod that can't think and can't do nothing to you except show you red, yellow and green. It show how weak we are. We need a rule to guide our life so we will not get a trouble in our life same as the use of the traffic light to control people from accident. In the nut shell we need to obey to the rod on the road.

Quote and link the news

I'm sorry to be late.
The Beijing Olympic Games are drawing near, so I want to introduce its articles.
While Takayuki Matsumiya has made his mark in the 5,000 meters, he'll be going
to the Olympics in the 10,000.
Matsumiya clinched a place on Japan's team to
this summer's Beijing Olympics by winning the men's 10,000 title at the Japan
Championships at Todoroki Stadium on Thursday.
"I came here [to qualify] for
the Olympics and I made it, so I'm really happy," said Matsumiya, the two-time
defending champion in both the 5,000 and 10,000.
Matsumiya pulled away from
rivals Ryuji Ono and Yu Mitsuya with three laps to go and won in 27 minutes
51.27 seconds. Ono finished second in 27:55.16 with Mitsuya third in 27:58.63.
"There's a big difference between first and second places, so I was
concerned more with where I finished than the time I ran," said Matsumiya, who
last year set the Japan record in the 5,000.
With the victory, Matsumiya
became the first athlete to fulfill the Japan federation criteria for automatic
selection by anyone who wins the national title and has achieved the Olympic "A"
qualifying standard.
Matsumiya topped the "A" mark of 27.50.00 when he
clocked 27:41.75 at the Cardinal Invitational in Palo Alto, Calif., on May 4.
The Olympic team will be announced Monday following the four-day meet.
One athlete who earlier this year might not have thought he would make that
list is two-time world bronze medalist hurdler Dai Tamesue, who overcame his
first barrier in an attempt to make it to Beijing.
Tamesue, running just the
second race of an injury-delayed season, advanced to the final of the men's
400-meter hurdles by winning his semifinal heat in 50.87.
"It was a relief
to finally run," said Tamesue, who pulled out of several meets earlier this
season due to problems with both calves and his left Achilles tendon and has run
just once.
"My body felt good, although given what I've gone through, I was
wondering if that feeling was wrong," Tamesue said. "After I took my first step,
I thought everything was OK."
Kenji Narisako, who won the 2006 title when
Tamesue skipped the meet, posted the fastest time of the round of 49.99.
Both Tamesue and Narisako have achieved the Olympic qualifying "A" standard,
meaning both will likely go if they finish one-two.
In other events,
two-time defending champion Shingo Suetsugu and Shinji Takahira each won their
qualifying races to make the final of the men's 200 meters.
Suetsugu, the
2003 world bronze medalist, won his heat in 20.67 seconds, while Takahira took
it easy down the stretch to finish first in his race in 20.81.
Four of the
women's field event titles were decided, but no Olympic places.
Yuka
Murofushi won the hammer throw over two-time defending champion Masumi Aya,
winning with a throw of 62.98 meters for her third title and first in three
years.
Disaster struck the women's pole vault, in which Japan record-holder
Ikuko Nishikori and defending champion Takayo Kondo both failed to clear a
height, each missing three times at 4.10 meters.
That opened the door for
Doshisha University's Tomomi Abiko, the lone vaulter to clear 4.10, to win her
first title. Mami Nakano, the 2006 champion, placed second at 4.00.
Other
winners were Yuki Ebihara, who won the javelin with a toss of 56.71 meters, and
Fumiyo Yoshida, who leaped 13.12 meters to capture the triple jump.

The number of cruel murders is increasing recently. Especially murdering family members is very tragic.

4 family members murdered / Man kills wife, son, daughter-in-law,
granddaughter with sledgehammer

CHIBA--A 77-year-old man has been
arrested on suspicion of killing four members of his family at their home in
Kashiwa, Chiba Prefecture, by bashing them with a sledgehammer, police said.

An elderly man called the police at about 7 a.m. Tuesday and claimed he
had murdered his family. Police officers arrived at the house of Yoshio Kiuchi
and found four members of the Kiuchi family bleeding from head injuries. Kiuchi,
who reportedly had health problems, was found lying unconscious.

The victims are Kiuchi's 75-year-old wife, Tokiko; his 49-year-old son,
Shigeru; Shigeru's 44-year-old wife, Miyuki; and Manami, the 4-year-old daughter
of Shigeru and Miyuki.

According to the police, Kiuchi killed his wife with a sledgehammer
while she was preparing breakfast in the kitchen between 6 a.m. and 7 a.m., and
then attacked Shigeru and Miyuki in a tatami-floored room. He then allegedly
bludgeoned Manami to death on the second floor of an adjacent building.

The sledgehammer's handle was about one meter long, and the steel head
was about 20 centimeters long, the police said. Kiuchi kept the sledgehammer in
a shed.

The police found a bloodstained sledgehammer in the kitchen of the main
building.

Kiuchi suffered no injuries, but his pajamas were blood-soaked,
according to the police.

A 59-year-old relative of Kiuchi, who resides in the neighborhood,
said, "I heard that Kiuchi had been in ill health, but I never thought something
like this would happen."

The Kiuchi family's house is an area where houses are scattered amid
paddy fields, about four kilometers southeast of JR Abiko Station. Kiuchi worked
as a farmer until about 2000.

Kiuchi was quoted by the police as saying: "I'd had troubles with my
family mainly due to my health problems. My wife had told me I was a nuisance,
so I thought several times about killing her. When I got up this morning, I
decided to go ahead and do it. I killed all my family members because I thought
it would be a load off my shoulders."

The family's neighbors said they did not know of any problems with the
family.

A 76-year-old woman sometimes talked with Tokiko at an elderly people's
community group, saying: "She was a nice person. I hadn't noticed anything
strange about her."

A 56-year-old female neighbor was stunned by the incident, saying, "We
don't even get minor crimes like theft in our neighborhood, so this kind of
brutal incident is very frightening."

A woman in the neighborhood said: "I heard Kiuchi had been bedridden
due to heart trouble. He wasn't hospitalized, but he had been staying at home to
recuperate and sometimes had to go to hospital."

This news interest me very much. This new is about playstation3 that sony made.


Sony's games division is haemorrhaging cash because the PlayStation 3 console
cost so much to develop and make that the company will find it difficult to
recoup its losses.

It is not unusual for consumer electronics
manufacturers to pour money into research and development, sell at a loss when a
new product is released and make up the deficit with high-volume sales in
subsequent years.

However, the magnitude of Sony's PS3 losses, and the
length of time it will take to recoup them, have startled games sector analysts.

Sony's admission that clawing back the cash will have a negative impact
on the group's financial results for some time came to light in its most recent
filing to the US Securities and Exchange Commission.

The Form 20-F
filing, which is mandatory for non-US companies with US-based shareholders,
revealed losses in the year ending 31 March 2007 (the first financial year in
which the PS3 figured) of ¥232.3bn (£1.09bn).

Although this figure is
high, a substantial loss is to be expected. R&D costs for the relatively
simple PS1 launched in 1996 were estimated at close to $500m (approximately
£350m then).

But the PS3 was a far more ambitious product. Sources close
to the company estimate that each PS3 console cost $800 to manufacture when it
was launched in 2006, let alone multi-billion dollar R&D costs.

That
production bill will have reduced as Sony refined the manufacturing process. But
losses for the year ending 31 March 2008, by which point over nine million PS3s
had been sold, were still running at ¥124.5bn (£585m).

The PS1 and PS2
will have paid back their R&D and early manufacturing costs because they
sold in such high volumes over a long period of time.

While this
business model has been standard among consumer electronics firms, the problem
for the PS3 is that product cycles are becoming shorter as competitors leapfrog
and customers become more demanding.

This leaves fewer years to recoup
R&D losses with high-volume sales.

Howard Stringer, chief executive
at Sony, stated last week that returning the games division to profit is a top
priority for Sony.

Sony will look to recoup losses on sales of consoles
and software. Currently PS3s are on sale for between £310 and £350, depending on
which games the retailer has bundled with the console.

Popular PS3 games
sell at between £30 and £40, and less popular titles as low as £15. After
retailers and distributors have taken their cut, Sony is likely to make anything
from 40 to 75 per cent margin on these sales.

At this rate, the PS3 may
never be anywhere near as profitable as earlier PlayStation models.

However, with every console sold Sony is also seeding homes with Blu-ray
players for which it can sell Blu-ray DVD movie titles at much higher margins.

Thus, while the games division loses money on PS3s, the benefits to
other parts of the Sony empire may outweigh the losses.
