Summer

In Hokkaido, summer season is very short,( sometimes summer forgets to come) and we are good at enjoying short summer very much.

Weather permitting, we enjoy cooking over a barbecue in the yard. We don't always eat Genghis Khan, but we cook a Mongolian barbecue frequently.If it is a little hot, we go swimming in the sea immediately. But seawater is very cold, so if we swim in the sea for about ten minutes, our lips become discolored.

After the Bon festival, we feel autumn is coming over there.

About summer

Hello, I'm Yuta Oba.

These days it's getting hotter and hotter, and I really feel that summer is coming. Though the heat of summer is very hard for me, I like summer very much.

When I think about summer, I immediately associate with the summer vacation. Needless to say, I'll enjoy the summer vacation. I want to do what I can't do in my daily life. I want to go back to my hometown, meet friends, travel or do my hobbies.

However, I think that I should do things not only for myself but also for other people. We always owe many people a great deal. So, in the summer vacation, I'll do for and be grateful to my family, friends and other people. I also think it is good to participate in some volunteer activities.

Summer

Hello, everyone.How's it going?

It was rainny today, but we had been having lovely waether recently. I'm from Aomori-City, and I feel it is hotter in Hirosaki than in Aomori-City. I don't like hot days, but I like the mood of summer. I'm excited in summer without particular reasons. For instance, I love the beautiful blue seas like this picture. There is no seas in Hirosaki, so I'm sorry for it. I want to go to beautiful southern islands and swim in the sea someday.

In summer, there are many pleasant things besides seas. Fireworks, night stands,summer vacation and so on. Let's enjoy this summer!

Thanks for reading, bye-bye.

SUMMER

　 Hello everbody! I'm Hiroko. How's it going? I'm good! It's getting hotter and hotter,eh? I feel summer is coming on!

I love summer very very much!!♡ In summer, I go to beach with my boyfriend, enjoy barbecue with friends, go to swimming pool, get a suntan, and see fireworks!! That's really fantastic vacation for me and so exciting!

　I lived in Ichikawa city, Chiba prefecture. There is the Edo River between Ichikawa and Koiwa(Tokyo). Every year, Fireworks at the Edo River is hold and a lot of people are coming so that Ichikawa city is crowded with too many people. Because of this, I sometimes didn't enjoy it very much but finally at the finale all the people applaused and at the moment I felt a sense of unity between us all. That's why I love to see fireworks. This summer I will go back to Ichikawa and see the fireworks with my lovely boyfriend. I'm too excited and I can't wait! (^^)♡

SUMMER

Good evening, everyone. It was very hot day, wasn't it?
Do you like summer? I love it!!
In the past, for me, summer was the most dislike season.
Because, in summer, I can't escape from getting a tan, everytime I am streaming with sweat
and I become irritated at hot.
However, recently, I notce that there are many fantastic things in summer.
For example, we have summer festivals, fireworks displays, camping, music festivals, swimming in the sea and so on.
Moreover, we also have original traditions that wearing yukata, eating eel, visiting family's grave, cooling off with hearing the sound of wind-bells.
Further, I love a scent of fresh and green and shining plants which symolize life force of summer.

I don't decide yet the plan of new summer vacation, but my heart is already singing at expectations（＞ω＜）

Summer

Hi!I'm Hemian.It's getting hotter and hotter,isn't it?

Do you like summer?I don't like this season very much because it is very hot!When it hot,I hesitate to go everywhere I go.I know the area like Tokyo is hotter than here,Aomori.I can stand it.I never want to go Tokyo in the summer!Also,I don't want to get a suntan.My face has already gotten a suntan,but my legs haven't.I hate to be tanned like this!Aaaaah......

However,In terms of many events and food,I love summer.I can enjoy fireworks,Neputa and Yomiya.And I can eat melons,watermelons,ice cream and shaved ice!Also there is summer vacation!Now I am a university student,so it lasts for about two months.I'm going to go China with my mother this summer vacation.

I like summer but I don't like summer!

summer vacation

My favorite season is summer. Because, in summer, we can enjoy the longest vacation. There are many chances to go swimming to sea, to go hiking to mountains. In addition, there are also big events, for example hanabi competition, camp fire, kimodameshi, suika-wari and so on.

Summer vacation is important for every family. There is Japanese custom which means that some sacrifice of private time must been demanded to work completely. So, in fact, a lot of father can't take his time for his own family. This is why summer vacation is important for family.

In summer vacation, we really enjoy family time.

I love summer!

SUMMER

Recently it is hot.

I found that It is hotter in Hirosaki than in Aomori.

Today,for intence,the highest temperature of Aomori is 23 degrees,but it of Hirosaki is 27degrees!

I'm troubled what clothes I should wear.



I sweat profusely,so I hate the heat of summer:<

Nevertheless I like summer!
That's because I get excited when I hear about it.

By the way,do you know that there is a fireworks event in Aomori?
It is held on August 7th every year.
There are a lot of people,street stalls and fireworks!

I guess that you can enjoy.

If you are free on August 7th,how about coming to Aomori?

Dislike

I guess the dishes cooked with eggs are very popular among many people. As a matter of fact I like omlets,scramble eggs,and boiled eggs.But I can't stand the taste of fried eggs or so called sunny-side ups.It's OK for me to eat the white of them,but the yolk tastes so awful.

Summer

This summer may be the most enjoyable season in my life.Now that I'm a college student,I have tremendous free time in the summer vacation. That means I can do things what I couldn't in my daily life.

What I want to do the most is to travel many places in Japan,and watch soccer games in stadiums.First,I'll work part-time to earn some money I can use by myself.The money may be set aside for traffic expenses and so on.And then,I can enjoy my fabulous trip.I'm planning to go to Sendai,Tokyo,Kobe,and Hiroshima.

This summer is really a good oppotunity for me,so I don't want to miss it.

Summer☆

I like Summer very much.Speaking of Summer,I have a summer vacation.I want to take a trip,have my part-time job,do exercise to reduce weight,return to my family home,go a clearance sale,go to a fireworks display,study moderately and so on.Summer vacation gives me a lot of time to do various things,and I want to live a full life.We all studied hard all day long,led an ascetic life,at this time of last year,so the God will allow us to enjoy freely in summer vacation.I can't hardly wait for it.

dislike

Hello, everyone. It's Shunsuke Kubota.

I dislike raw eggs. I can't eat it since I'm a child. If I eat raw eggs, I certainly feel bad. These days, people often put raw egg on rice, pour soy sauce, and eat them. They call it "tamago kake gohan". I can't believe it.

Thanks for reading.

Hello. My name is Fukushi Konosuke.

I don't like Milk.

I went to the ranch by the social studies field trip at the elementary school.

I was made to drink it as it was .

Though it is fresh, it is not possible to drink by terrible oil's extending to a full mouth,

the teacher said, it is not possible to drink such delicious milk .

I drink with "gokkun"

After that, milk cannot be drunk.

Eggplant

Good moring, everyone. This is Shinya Suto.

I dislike an eggplant very much. I can eat most of the other vegetables that other people dislike, but I can't eat it. I don't like the smell, taste and color. My family and friend say it's delicious , but I can't believe it. I wish it didn't exist.


I know that an egg plant is good to health, however I can't endure the taste. Thank you for eating.

allergy

Hello, I'm Kazuki Sato. How are you? Today, I'm going to talk about a food that I don't like.

However, I hate no food. I love eating. So almost all foods is good for me. It is not a joke. Though I don't like all foods, I hate no food.

However, there is one food that I cannot eat.

It is buckwheat. I am allergic to them. I had eaten them till I was fifteen. When I was a junior high school student, an event was happened.

One day, I ate buckwheat. Suddenly, I was breathing with difficulty. And, I went to one hospital. The doctor diagnosed it as allergy. I have not eaten buckwheat since then.

But I am happy now because many foods taste good for me.

dislike

Good morning,this is Yosihiro Asai.One of my dislike foods is konnyaku. I have two reasons for this.

First,it tastes little.I cannot feel the taste,so I always come to be not able to understand what I'm eating.Then,you may say "You should use something to make the taste good."But it's a evil way,I think.If you do that,you cannot taste the original taste.

Second,it requires more times of biting than it seems. I 'm always tired of biting it whenever I eat it.I's a troublesome food for me.

I hate that.

Hello. One of the foods I like is Shumai, however, it is only when there is nothing on the shumai. If a green pea is putted on it, suddenly the shumai turns into my enemy. I dislike green peas. Though it is very small, its bitterness and smell are very strong. It is enough difficult to eat a green pea, but green peas rice seems exist. It is rice cooked with many green peas and people can eat it without other food. Eating rice only with that green peas... I can't understand.


By the way, I also don't like Greenpeace, but much less strongly than green peas. I don't understand why they defend whales but allow cows and fish to be killed.

A terrible mistake

　I connect the Internet by using Lan cable. However, the cable is out of the way and I cannot use the Internet connection of my iPod and iPhone. So I ordered a wireless rooter to enjoy the Internet with iPod without that irritating cable.
　The other day, I received a rooter and tried to connect right away. However, it was for Windows XP and my computer is Windows 7. I could not set up and send it to my parent's home because my parent need a rooter.
　I ordered another wireless rooter and received today. I tried it at once, but I couldn't set up it though it is for Windows Vista. I checked the rooter carefully and I noticed, it is for Windows 7 32 bits and mine is Windows 7 64 bits!
　I gave up introducing a wireless connection to my apartment. At the cost of around 10000 yen, I realized the importance of checking goods before purchase it.

E.T

I've seen it once in Japanese, so I could understand what was going on though I didn't make out what they said. The most impressing part to me was one that the boy was trapping and searching in the forest to find the alean. I felt his strong curiosity. When I was young, I was also curious. I explored near mountain by myself all day long and eat rare foods (grasshoppers, honey bees and ascidians...). I plan to try many restaurant in Hirosaki and explore Hirosaki and near cities, but I will not do it. I want to be as curious as I in the youth.

A food I don't like

Hi, I'm Yuta Oba.

I don't like all kinds of liver whether raw or cooked. I think there are many people who don't like liver. I'm one of them. I dislike its smell in particular. I feel that it is the taste of blood!

I know liver is a nourishing food and contains many kinds of important nutrients such as vitamins and iron. So I've tried eating it many times, but I don't overcome it yet.

I wish I could overcome liver someday.

Tomato

Hi,everyone.I'm Takashi Miyamoto.

Now the time to confess the food I dislike.
I really hate tomato.I say this food "red devil".I really can't understand that why there are such people who eat tomato deliciously.
Needless to say, tomato tastes very bad.Besides this,it also smells terribly bad.If somebody eat tomato next to me,I want to say "stop eating!!"
These are why I hate tomato.

If you want to eat tomato,don't eat it in front of me.

MY HATE FOOD

I don't like Oyster!!!!!! Some people like this food. Unbelievable(+-+;)

Both it's taste and appearance cause me a reaction of refusal.

Once, I thought that perhaps I disliked oyster without even having tried it.

So I tried to eat them. But...I couldn't feel the taste was nice. Far from it, I came to hate it

more and more.

My parents like oyster, so someday, I want to eat it with them over a bottle of sake.

dislike food

Hi everyone! I'm Mamoru.
When I think of a food that I don't like. First of all,I hit on "nametake".
It is mushroom which is called a velvet shank and boiled with soy sorce and sweet sake for seasoning and then bottled for bin.
It smells bad enough to make me feel dizzy.
So I don't like nametake.

Salmon Roe

Hi!I'm Hemian.How's it going?

Do you like salmon roe,"ikura" in japanese?I don't like it.I hate it!I can't stand its look and taste.

It looks so creppy that once I see it,I feel sick.It's a glisten and lumpy thing!Aaaaaaaaah!Also I hate its taste.I have ever eaten it once.When I ate it,it popped, and then its thik liquid spread to full of mouse!!!!OH MY GOD!

Thank you to read.

Dislike

Hello. I'm Satoko.

Actually, I like every food, but if I give a food that I don't like forcibly, it's a garlic. I like its taste and smell. I think when we use it for some dishes, it becomes more tasty. However, I always regret eating it because it keeps smelling. It's smell stays not only in my body but also in my room. So I don't eat it positively.

It is good for you not to eat it before you meet somebody.

CheeseX(

Hi,everyone.What's up?

Today,I will talk about food which I dislike,cheese.

When I was a junior high school student,we were sometimes given cheese as school lunch.Every time cheese appeared,I gave them to my friends,although it was not good behavior.

I like pizza,but I can't eat ones with lots of cheeseX(However,I love cheese cake!Do you think it's strange,don't you?...I think so too:)

Thank you for reading.BYE!

dislike

Hello, everyone.

My hated food is a king oyster mushroom.
I dislike its texture.
There is strange elasticity in it.

However, it often appears on the table of my home.
My family likes king oyster mushrooms, so it is often served for breakfast.
At that time, I swallow them without biting.

Because they are used for a lot of dishes, I often encounter them.
I want to become accustomed to them.

dislike

Hello everyone I'm Owada Hiroaki. How's it going?


The homework assigned to us is about our dislike food, but there is nothing I don't like to eat. So today I'd like to tell you what I don't like to drink.

My dislike drink is root beer. I have drank it many times. However, I've never drink a can of root beer to the last drop. It tastes like rotten medicine! To be honest, I haven't drink rotten medicine... lol
They often say that Dr. Pepper also tastes like that, but I don't agree with their opinion completely. Because I think the taste of Dr. Pepper is not so like medicine and, this is the biggest reason why I don't agree to them, I like Dr. pepper very match!

Sorry, I wander from the subject.

Anyway, what I'd like to put an emphasis on is that I hate the smell and the taste of root beer. However, as mentioned above, I have drank the awful drink many time. That's because sometimes somehow I really want to drink root beer; nevertheless I know that I don't like it and that I may not be able to drink it up. Perhaps when I feel such a fool emotion, I want to reaffirm that I hate it.

Dislike

I don't like Rakkyou very much. In fact, I dislike it so much, I don't even want to put it in our refrigerator. It spoils other food's flavor.

When I'm going to eat curry and rice, if I catch sight of Rakkyou, it makes me feel so bad!! I don't know why curry and rice is garnished with Rakkyou. It smells strong and peculiar. It tastes sour and sweet. It feels wet and crunchy. All of its nature spoil curry and rice.

I believe Rakkyou is one of the worst pickles I have ever eaten. Rakkyou and other foods eaten together will disagree with me. I can't eat it forever!!

Dislike

Hello!! I'm Ryo Kikuchi. How's it going?


Today, I would like to explain my dislike. It is Japanese gingers!! I think that Japanese gingers are very bitter and sour. When I eat them, I always want to spit it out!! In Japan, It has come down that eating them makes you a fool. So, I don't want to eat them because I don't want to become a fool. Japanese elderly people like to eat them,but I will never like them!!

Dislike

Hello, everyone. What's up? I'm nero. Today, I'll talk about my disliking food.

I dislike boiled cabbage. I like meat-stuffed cabbage or cabbages in some soup, but I dislike boiled cabbage. When cabbage is boiled, it becomes tenderer and mellower. I can't stand those facts.Though cabbage is vegetable, is it required that cabbage becomes mellower? Vegetables should be a little bitter. I want to eat raw cabbage. Why do people bother to boil cabbage? I think cabbage should be eaten remaining raw.

MY ENEMY

Hello. It's KOKO SHIBUTANI.

In fact, I don't like TOHU.

It's too tender and has no taste. I can't understand why old people like TOHU very much. When I become an old woman, I'll eat HANPEN in place of TOHU. WAHAHAHA------

In adittion, TOHU is too white!!!!!!!!!!!

I envy it very much, because my skin tanned and I became a black woman.

Dislike

Hello, everyone!
I'm Mizuki.


Today, I want to write about food which I dislike, soybean fiber, okara in Japanese. It's one of the by-products in production of tofu. When you make soybean milk from soybeans, you get it.

Although it is said that okara is good for the health, I don't like it. It is all dried out and it's not tasty. But I don't want to have likes and dislikes in food, so I eat it when you serve it for me.

Thank you for reading.

Dislike

Good evening! I'm Kiho. This time, I'm going to write about the food I don't like, shiitake mushroom.




Well... what should I begin to talk about? I dislike all aspects of shiitake. First of all, the shape! Isn't it awful? I don't like all mushrooms which have the similar shape. Second, the smell. I'm sorry to people who like it, but the smell is so bad for me. When it is baked in the kitchen, I can't stand. Finally, needless to say, the taste and the eating feel. If it cut as small as I can't recognize the feel, I may manage to eat it.

These days, I have conquered some other foods I don't like and can eat them a few at a time. But a whole shiitake... it is impossible.

Dislike

I don't like olives in brine!I met them for the first time at airplane bound from Japan to London on a school excursion two years ago.They appeared in my face in an in-flight meal.I didn't have so many likes and dislikes in food.I could eat anything to that point.But,just as I bit it I have a dislike!It tasted too bad!I wondered why such a awful food was existing in the world!Who tried to eat it for the first time??I will never understood his idea as long as I live.

Dislike

For me,raw tomatoes are disgusting.The first time I ate them,I almost threw up.Though I can manage to eat them now,I still can't stand the awful taste.I try not to eat them when dished.

However,cooked tomatoes are not so bad. I like tomato sauce on spaghetti or ketchup.

So when raw tomato is for meal,I always cook them with a frying pan or a microwave.

Shamu (Killer Whale)

Do you know "shamu?"They're officially called "killer whale",but in San Diego Sea World they're famous as "shamu".In the wild,they are very dangerous.I guess you can't imagine that they hunt marine animals, including sea lions,seals and even larger whales.

In many marine theme parks,however,they are trained to do be gentle and they won't hurt human beings.After hard training, they become to do some interesting tricks.The Shamu show in Sea World is a spectacular show, and culminates with a giant tidal wave of water that soaks the audience sitting in the front rows.

Shamu is cool,and the shows are great.I'm sure that everyone who watch them will be excited.

Dislike

Hi everybody! I'm Hiroko.

Though the world cup is opening and evryone is really absorbed in soccer, I want to talk about my dislike food! :) sorry for that!

I've disliked a short-neck clam, in Japanese you say Asari, since I was a young. All of my family members except me loves it but I don't like it at all because of its taste and smell of seawater. Do you like it, by the way? Actually I can't satnd its tase so that I can't enjoy clam chowder either, which is kind of American soup and boiled seafood of cource including short-neckclam. I didin't eat it for a long time but thesedays I'm able to eat/drink Miso soup of Asari. I mean that I drink just soup, not Asari. Since I taste Asari soup, I hope I will taste Asari itself too in the future!

Dislike!

I don't like a green pepper...;<
I can't eat dishes containing green peppers even if only some of them are included.
I feel them so bitter,how about you?

It is said that you should pick up a nose when you eat a hateful food,but I can't stand the existence!

One day,my mother bought "chinnjaorousu" lunch for me as lunch.
I felt disappointing!
However I pulled green peppers and ate the lunch because I was so hungry.
Chinjaorousu was very delicious^^

※I got my sister to eat the green pepper which I had pulled.

My Favorite Artist

Hello, I'm Karakawa.

Today, I'm talking about one of my favorite artists, 9mm parabellum bullet. It is Japanese rock band composed of four men.The band was made in March 2004 in Yokohama. They are giving a 3rd album tour now.

I have been their live event once. It was so exciting! They played for only about two hours, but their performance was aggressive, massive and fun. It is not too much to say that I was excited the best in my life. I want to go their live event again.

my favorite movie

I'm going to introduce my favorite movie.

I think that a lot of people have seen this because it is a very famous movie.
Please look at this if you have not seen it yet.

This is a story of the car that is a time machine.
The boy rides it, and he go to the past and the future.

I like this because various scenes have linked between the past and the future.

CHINA

In China,People's Republic of China,there are a lot of things to see,eat,drink...etc.I love China,so I'll tell you about China!


One of famous things in Beijing is "the Great Wall of China".It was the wall which blocked the enemy.It's very very long!About 8851.8km!I have been there once when I was elementary school.Of course,I couldn't walk all wall...I could walk just middle of wall.

There are many delicious foods here!For example,fried pork & vegetable dumplings(gyouza),pork bun(nikuman),Mabotofu...and so on.Each area has own special foods.

I can't recommend where is good place because there are so many places!

Thanks to read.

Skiing

Hello, everyone! Today, I'll write about my favorite sports, skiing. Skiing is one of the exciting sports in winter. I comparatively don't good at sports like baseball, soccer, and swiming, but I like this sports very much. Have you ever skied ? We can enjoy this sport in this prefecture in winter.

I started Skiing when I was a kindergartener. I used to go to Owani skiing ground to practice it.

When I put on my skis and skied first, I felt fear and couldn't do. However, I practiced it once and once again and came to be able to ski well.I continued to go skiing groung every winter until I became high school student, because the high school life was busy and I started studying to enter this college.

I could enter this college this year. So, I want to ski again. I'm looking forward to skiing in this winter.

new experience for me

Hi every! I'm Mamoru.



I was worried about this Free topic blog. Because I prepared for the tests which are Physics and Chemistry and are going to be done tomorrow. Therefore I didn't hit on any idea.



But fortunately(perhaps unfortunately),I have got a dope only a few hours ago. When I got to home I found black and nimble shape. It was a cockroach!!!!!! I shouted in my mind and unconciously shoughted "Wow!!!" . I was surprised because I see a cockroach for the first time. There is no cockroach in Hokkaido.Then a housemother came there and gave me "a-su jetto" Thanks to this spray, I could kill a cockroach.



I won't forget this experience.

Ace of Diamond

Hi! This is Yasu.
I'll write about my favorite comic book, "Ace of Diamond".

The story is set in high school baseball.
Eijun Sawamura, a pitcher of unknown junior high school, is scouted by Seido high school.
Seido high school is famous for powerful baseball, but there is no ace.
Eijun want to be an ace of Seido, but he don't have enough skill and stamina.
So, he does his best to be an ace.

This comic is very hot, so I recommend!

Thank you.

Tennis

Hi, I'm Takashi Miyamoto.
I belong to a tennis club.When I was a junior high school student, I belonged to a soft tennis club.But now,not soft tennis.
Tennis is very very fun.It requires us to use our brains.Even though you have a good ability to play tennis,you may lose if you don't use your brain enough.On the other hand,if you don't have a good ability to play tennis,of course,you may lose.If you want to be good at playing tennis,you should have both good technique and brain.
It seems to be very difficult,but you can play tennis if you get used to it.

Now,take your racket and let's play tennis!!

Camera

Hi, I'm Yuta Oba.

I'm belonging to the photo club of Hirosaki University. This is a picture of the camera which I use now. However, this camera is not mine. I don't have my own camera, so I'm borrowing the photo club's one.

Our club will hold an exhibition on July, and I took some pictures for it the other day. We take only black and white photographs. It is difficult to take good photographs and develop and print films by myself. However, when I can make a good work, I am really happy and satisfied.

I'd like to take more and more photographs and make progress in my skill of taking pictures. I also want to buy my own camera as soon as possible!

My recent pleasure

Hello, I'm Kazuki Sato. Today, I'm going to write about my recent pleasure.

Recently, I enjoy cooking. I didn't like cooking. However , I learned to cook myself after I

had come to Hirosaki.

At first, things I cooked was bad. I often cut my finger with kitchen knife. I sometimes went to restaurant after I failed to cook. Later, I learn to eat things I cooked.

Yesterday, I cooked stuffed cabbage. Today, I ate stuffed cabbage again because I cooked many many stuffed cabbage. This was strong stuffed cabbage. However, it was delicious.

The greatest player

I like watching baseball and love Hanshin Tigers. It has and had many great players. Let me introduce the greatest foreign player not only of Hanshin but also of the world of Japanese baseball.
His name is Randy Wiliam Bass.He set great recrd in many things,for example,batting average,home runs and RBI(run batted in). He became a two consective winner of triple crown(1985 and 1986). His batting average in 1986 (.389) is the best record in Japan.
Recently, great foreign batters haven't existed. So I expect Brazell and Murton to be great batters and to help team like Randy Bass.

Good morning,this is Yoshihiro Asai.Have you ever read 桜庭一樹-Sakuraba Kazuki-,a Japanese writer? This time,I write one of her works.

Her work I read for the first time is "推定少女-suitei-syoujyo-."(I still don't know what this title means.)The heroine of it is Kana Sugomori,a ordinary Japanese high school student.She kills her NEW father,and escapes.While escaping,she meets not human girl who looks like human and who is running away from her own pursuers,too.Then,they cooperate.While doing so,they go through many experiences.A woman persuades them to do right thing.A boy helps them to hide without knowing that.They meet a man who want to make money by using them.And they finally.......OH! sorry,if you haven't read it yet,Isouldn't show the story any more.

Through this work,I learn what the responssibility is that will be required when a child becomes an adult. If you read it,you may know how many helps you get from adults around you,and that how many responssibilities you don't take. You may learn you are emotionally dependent.
