Winter Vacation

It’s the second appearance today:)


How was your winter vacation?

I enjoyed winter vacation.

I met my friend in my senior high school　after a long time. We went to see a movie and went to karaoke.


I spent New Year's holiday with my family.

I ate Toshikosi-soba while I was watching TV on New Year's Eve.
During New Year,TV program is very interesting every year,so I was laughing to see a comedy show.XD
I like TV program called "24 hours when you must not laugh."
Did you watch it?


On New Year's Day,I bought a lucky bag of clothes.
I got a profit because I was satisfied with its contents. I was lucky!

I visited a shirine during New Year.
When I drew a sacred lot,it was good luck!


I hope this year will be great!!

Trip during the holiday

   Good evening everyone.I'm Kou Syunko.

   I had a trip during the winter holiday. I went to Osaka, Kyoto, Kobe, Nara, and Tokyo. Trip was so interesting that I don't want to come back. Every day is full of new experience. AndI I like Kyoto and Nara. Maybe I will go there for another time.

 There are so many peopele in Osaka and Tokyo. Sometimes I like going to a crowded place. Especially when I went to Meijijingu for "hatumoude", there are so many people waiting for the New Year, even sang songs together. Its very interesting to know how Jpanese spend their New Year.

   Kyoto and Nara have many temples and old architectures. I wanted to spend more time there, but I didn't have enough time.

   In Tokyo I went to Tokyo Tower, and saw the night sight of Tokyo. It was very beautiful. But didn't enable to go to the Sky Tree. So many people were waiting there, waiting for it may take 3hours or more, so I gave up to see it.

   It was a very busy trip, and a little tired. But very interesting .

Movie

Goog evening everyone!

I forgot to write about my favorite movie.
I'm sorry to be late.


I might say at the time of self-introduction but my favorite movie is Studio Ghibli's annimation.

Hayao Miyazaki retired last year,so I was very sad.

All of his works are wonderful,especially popular movie is "My neighbor Totoro."
Everyone may know it.
I think Japanese people have watched it since childfood.

There are many scenes about events children experience and curiosity they feel.

I never get tired of watching this movie.

Both adults and children can have fun!

I looked for it in You Tobe but I couldn't find my favorite scene. I'msorry.



Thank you for reading!

MOVIE

Good evening, everyone.

I haven't told about my favorite movie.
I'm sorry to be late.

My favorite movie is "Swing Girls."
It is a Japanese movie.
The casts are Juri Ueno, Shihori Kanziya, Yuta Hiraoka and so on.
Have you ever watched this movie?
I've watched it three or four times.

The story is about high school girls.
They spend time at school during summer vacation,because they must take supplementary lessons.
One day, they meet with Jazz Band by chance.
They practice very hard and in the last scene, they do great performance.
Whenever I watch this movie, the performance moves me greatly.

If you're interested in music,or even if you're not so much, try this!
I recommend.

I'm sorry I don't know how to link websites.
Please search YouTube for "Swing Girls."

Thank you for reading.
Good night.

Winter vacation

Happy New Year everyone!!!
How was your holidays?

I went back to my hometown for 8 days.
In Shizuoka, it was warmer than Hirosaki.
So I felt a little hot.

I enjoyed singing at karaoke, eating dinner and driving with my local friends.

At the end of the year, I  watched TV with my family at home.
So I could relax very much.
And I made use of the experience of the single life and helped to cook.

On January 2th, I went to a shrine for a New Year's visit and went shopping.
I bought some clothes and necessaries of life.


It was a lot of fun to play with my friends and spent with my family.
I was happy to be able to enjoy this vacation.

Thank you for your reading.
Good night.

Winter vacation

Happy New Year Everyone!!
I look forward to your continued good will in the coming year.

I spent  this winter vacation enjoyning many things in contrast last year.Then, we are examinee so we don' t have enough time to waste time and have to study.

That's why I decided to enjoy the vacation very much with abandon.

I went to my hometown and stayed there about 10days.
While, I went to karaoke, bowling and game center with my local friends.

In addition, I participated the practice of rowing club which I had joined when I was a high school student. However, Beyond my expectation, I was worn out by the menu which I did easily when I was an active player.Finally, I vomited after the practice...

Also, I spent much time with my family.
It's very fun to eat meals with all members.
It's very fun to visit Nasu-Highlands with family.


On the whole, I enjoyed the vacation.

Winter Vacation

Hi, how was your vacation?
For me, it was so busy travel and had a tight schedule.
I got a five-day intensive course of based politics from December 23th to 27th.
These days were really fruitful and I think these were good beginning of this vacation.
From 28th to January 1th, I visited my grandparents and ate a lot with my mother.
They seemed to feel good and I was totally satisfied to talk to them.
On January 2th, I went back to my hometown, Sapporo and because of big sale had been held around city, while going to Hokkaido shrine, I dropped Sapporo station for buying sale staff.
Most of clothes or shoes clold perchase 70 percent off, so I asked my mother to be bought for me a lot.
On January 4th, I visited 'longsleeves' store to prepare for next year celebration which is a coming -of-age ceremony.
Store clerks clould dress me up gorgerusly with beautiful small items.
Even the ceremony would be next yaer, I am looking for coming the day.

This winter vacation was so fruitfull even so tight schedule.

MOVIE

Hello. AND sorry to late writing.

My best movie I have ever seen before is "Armageddon".
This might be famous for its theme music named "I do not want to miss a thing "which is sung by Will Smith in 1998.

This story is set in not only in America but all over the world too.
One day, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration(NASA) got the report that asteroid (minor planet) is rapidly approaching the earth.
This means that its crash to the earth shows the extinction of human beings. 
You might feel how fathers are great and also, how dying for the earth or your dearest child is.

This scene is my best.( BUT someone might be able to guess the end...so I do not recommend to watch this...)
If you have a chance not to decide films, I strongly recommend this movie.
Thank you for reading and a HAPPY NEW YEAR :)

2 Movies You Have to Watch

Hey, guys! My name is Ryunosuke. In this article, I'm going to talk about my favorite movies. After you read my article, you'll wanna go to a video rental shop!!

1:SHOOTER (Click to expand)

First, 'Shooter' (it's known as 'The Shooter' in Japan) is one of my favorite movies I have seen. As its title, a sniper who is hired by the United States go on a mission. One day, the employer said, "Our president will be killed by someone." So he decided to accept the request. However, he is betrayed....

The highlights of this movie are action scenes and the story. In action scenes, the hero snipes enemies from far and even destroy the choppers! The escape from enemies is also excited! And the story describes the conpiracy by the government.

If you have interest in this movie, Shooter, feel free to watch it!! :)

[ Shooter ]

2:Silent Hill

Second, I recommend you to watch 'Silent Hill'. Silent Hill is based on the video games(a series of Silent Hill. Made by the famous Japanese company, KONAMI). It's a horror movie, so someone maybe don't want to see it, however, I get a thrill out of watching this movies! And don't forget to play original video games if you like this movie!

The highlights of this movie are the expression and the background. VFX(visual effects) and CGI are so high quality and beautiful. I'm doing 3DCG as a hobby so I can 'understand' how they are amazing. The background relates to the native cult. The cultists try to burn women as if they're witches.

[ Silent Hill ]

So these are my favorite movies(of course, there are others). I hope you like them :)

MOVIES

Good morning everyone!

 

In English class of an university, the teacher asked us, 『What is the difference between good movies and great movie?』 He said that『Great movies tell us many things. And when we watch the good movie many times , this show us different teaching.』 So I`ll introduce such great movies.

 PATCH ADAMS is an American movie(1998). This runs for 115 minutes. In this movie, Robin Williams act Patch Adams, who is a doctor really exist.

 

This is the great movie I watched in the English class. The teacher said this movie told us many thing about communication. There is a scene that Patch get rid of squirrels that Rudi is scared of. I think this scene say that when you communicate, the important thing is thinking about what the person think and put yourself I the parson`s place. Unfortunately, writing make this great scene cheap.  It will be fun to discuss with your friend after watching this movie.

 

ONE PEACE THE MOVIE エピソード オブ チョッパー+(プラス) 冬に咲く、奇跡の桜 is a Japanese movie (2008). This runs for 113 minutes. This movie is based on comic one piece.

 

There are many great scene in this movie as if the first contact of Chopper and Dr.Hiruruku. The thing I most strongly felt is that we can`t save what we want to save just by feeling. We have to learn the light way. Sometimes I wonder why I study. Maybe this movie give me an answer.

 

 

Movie

Good morning everyone!

My favorite movie is BACK TO THE FUTURE. It is science fiction movie. Marty, played by Michael J Fox experience time travel from 1985 to 1955. When he returns to 1985, this year is different from prior to time travel. In this movie, a car is time machine. The car is Delorean. It is very nice car. I like it. I want to drive it.

Children's war game

Good evening.

My favorite movie is "Children's war game".


This movie was showed in 2000 , however , high-qualitiy animation and construction of story facinated us.

The characters confront danger which network problem causes.

There, digital world spreads and characters fight with creatures which are called "digital monsters" to solve the problem.

Children in those days are facinated by this exciting story and coolness of digital monsters.


This movie's awesome point is that many people who didn't know the original animation of this movie were also impressed  like people who knew.

I watched the movie again the other day and I felt its brightness doesn't lose even now.

So, go  to DVD shops , rent it and enjoy it!!


Incidentally,  this movie's director is Mamoru Yamada who is well-known for "Summer wars" and "The girl who leapt through time".

Movie

Good evening,everyone!
My favorite movie is spec.

This is the famous Japanese movie which described the fight of detectives and spec holders.
There are three works and this movie continues from a drama.
Spec means special ability that some of people have and use.
For example,stopping time,moment movement,future prediction,and so on.

However,some of people who have spec misuse their abilities.
So the detectives must fight with them to stop them from misusing spec.


The leading role in this movie is Erika Toda.
She is one of the most favorite actress.
In this movie,her role is detective who also have spec and it is very interesting and cool.

I think this movie is a great work.
So if you have free time,please watch all works.

IIIB English Class Blog: IIIB English Class Blog: IIIB English Class Blog: My major

My major in the university is Japanese and international economic and trade.Some of you may feel a little confused about it as it seems like two majors.In fact,I got two academic degrees which concludes economic and Japanese when I was graduated.It sounds like very cool to get two degrees at the same time ,maybe it’s true,but it’s also very hard since we had to pay more time to have the class and actually it is a pity that the course  we had under the system of teaching shown no direct relation between economic and Japanese learning.And I think I hadn’t learnt both of them very well,so I came out an idea that I want to take the exam of Business Japanese .I’d like to find the relation between economic and Japanese in the preparation for the exam.

MY MAJOR

My major is English education.
In this major, I  learn  English grammar, English communication and a method of English education
But I'm studying the mental development of children and an educational system in Japan now.

To tell the truth, I don't want to be a teacher  so much.
I'd like to get a job which I can have relationship with foreign people.
So I want to develop my English through talking with them.

mY MaJoR

Hello. I'm Hiromi Tanaka.


I'm majoring in English Education, studying pedagogy and advanced English.
But this will be mainly learned in sophomore and junior,
so now is the time for preparing and improving by myself by reading books and taking TOEIC tests.

As I want to teach English in high school, I'm going to particularly pursue English as language in university ,not only English as communication.

Therefore, I'm very looking forward to studying English philology in professor Okuno's class next semester. In that class, he will lecture about each preposition and word's function.


During my college days, I want to contact with English from various sides.


Thank you for reading　☺☺

About my major

 I'm majoring in music education. I want to be a music teacher of junior high school, so I'll take a license of it.
 

  In the music education course, we learn about that how to teach music to children and some skills of music. Now we are learning about the skill part. For example, music history, piano playing, singing, ensemble, and solfege.
 

 At the ensemble class, a few students play the songs together. We have played in ways of body percussion, recorder and koto or shakuhachi.
 

 At the solfege class, we learn about how to feel and express musics. Sometimes it's simillar than philosophy. It's little difficult to understand but I like this class the best.

 

 This is the piano practicing room in the music education corse area. There are about 10 practicing rooms and most of them are for individual practice. Only students in music education course can use those rooms. Each of them are very narrow but air-conditionated. Practicing in those rooms are comfortable enough.

The Reason Why I'm majoring in the Mechanical Engineering

Hey, guys! My name is Ryunosuke. Today, I'm going to talk why I'm majoring in the mechanical engineering.

I decided to become an engineer because I was inspired by some medias. In particular, some video games give me great ideas and the dream. For example, "Armored Core" is the great reason why I would like to create robots. A series of Armored Core is famous for the high speed mech action(Official Video / Game play part1 / part2). You can find that how Armored Core is so cool with watching videos.
Also, I was inspired by the game, "WipEout." (gameplay is here) WipEout is a series of futuristic racing video game. Players compete in the anti-gravity racing[1].

These are the reason why I'm majoring in the engineering. So how is the reality? Accoring Suidobashi Heavy Industry, they finished to make the 4-leg robot, "KURATAS." The developers aimed to export it and play games with it.

[ KURATAS (SHI), note: it's not CGI! ]

Of course, there are so many other inventions. Mech technologies, especially robots is more and more getting improved. I desire to become the pioneer of the innovation in the mechanical engineering in the future.

Good morning.

I'm Erika Nishimura.



I belong to a faculty of education and I'm studying about English education.

I want to be an elementary school teacher.

These days, teaching English to elementary school students is being widely talked about.

I'm very interestd in the topic.

I think it is important for children to come into contact with English but while they are elementary

students,  the most important thing is a feeling of "English is enjoyable!"

I want to be a teacher who is able to teach the pleasure of English.

So I should study English and education more and more to be such teacher.


Thank you for reading.

Have a nice day!

My Major

I am a student of the faculty of pedagogy.
My major is educational science.
Have you ever heard it ？
Frankly speaking, I did not know about it very much before I entered the university.
And now, it is little difficult for me to describe it.

In the special educational science course, we study about the problem of education.  
We study them in different points, for example, educational sociology, the study of social education , history of education, the study of public educational administration and so on.

Last Wednesday, we discuss home education.
The topic is how should be home education.
According to the government and the media, these days parents tend to overprotection.
However, they did not become  overprotection in fact!
Why parents are said such?
Originally what is  home education?
How should be home education ?
We had a good time to discuss them!
They are interesting questions for me !

Now,I am interested in social education and the difference of education among regions and countries.
I feel happy to study various things in the university!!

I have not decided what I am doing after graduation.
There are many charming occupations but I want to choose a job has a relation to children!
I should think my future more seriously:(
Anyway, I am going to study harder and enjoy studying now.

My major

Good evening, I'm Yujiro Osanai.
I major in English education.
So, I'm studying English mainly, but I'm studying about education too.

Recently I noticed I'm intrested in education itself not English education.
I like English the best of all subject, so if I become teacher, I would like to be English teacher in junior high school.

For the moment, I want to learn education more.
Thank you.

My Major

Good evening everyone!

I belong to a faculty of education and my major is English.
The reason why I chose this major is because I want to be an English teacher of junior high school.


However,I am interested in the teacher of elementary school as I like children.
Now,I take two courses;elementary school course and junior high school course.
So I am busy because there are a lot of things that I must learn.


In particular,I must study English most.
I can't read an English sentence quickly and speak English fluently.
It is also difficult for me to understand whole sentense quickly.
So I must study more than now.


Moreover,English will be needed in society in the future because it is thought that international society progresses.
Therefore,I think that studying English is very important for many people.


I like English and I want to learn many things that are concerned with English.
I want to learn other things too.


Thank you for reading!

My major is English education.
I want to be an English teacher at junior high school.


So far,I learn English grammar and phonetics.
English grammar is complicated unlike that I studied at high school.I'm not good at present perfect and past perfect.
Ebglish phonetics is very fun for me.I thought I could read English words by katakana,but I found it was wrong.English pronunciation differs from Japanese completely.How to open mouth and the position of tongue are very important!

First,I have to acquire knowledge about English.Then,I'm supposed to learn the way of teaching.
Now,concern about English education is increasing such as internationalization education.

I want to see various things from educational point of view.



Thank you for reading!

  Ladys and Gentlemea, Boys and Girl. I`m Makoto. Recentry I watched English class movie on the internet.

  My major is chemistry.



I studied chemistry at high school too. But what I learn at university is not advance of what I learned at high school. It is completely different from this. For example, at high school, I learn materials separateiy. However, I study how to be composed of materials.

I think that there are teaching in the chemistry. Take some example. it is uincertainty principle. It says that the act of observer affects the target.

Hokuto - my home town

 

 Hey, look at him! What an ugly creature ! Who is him !?

 His name is "Zuu-shii-hokkii". He's a new local character of Hokuto-shi. It's my home town. His motif is a sushi of Hokki (the kind of shellfish). Hokki is one of popular productions of Hokuto.
 

Can you guess what is that mountain on the depths in this picture?

 It's Mt.Hakodate! It's so famous as one of world best 3 night view. I took this picture at near my home. It shows that Hokuto is located next to Hakodate.

 

 This is a cement factory near to my home. It's so big! Only a part of it is on this picture. If you see this factory, you would be so suprised! It's one of biggest cement factory in Japan.

 

This is "a Trappist monastery".  The view with a row of poplar trees is so beautiful, don't you think? This monastery has a farm. The cookie made at the farm is so popular and so yummy! The cookie is called "Trappist cookie". You should try it someday!

My introduction, Hometown and Major

 Hi, I am Kanako Tachibana, and I would be glad to call my name friendly.
You might become aware of there are one more person in class at Fridays 2nd period comparing Wednesday.
It is me :)
Original English IIIB class to me is on Thursday 1st period, but I take Spanish class at that time.
Therefore I changed class.

I am from Sapporo city.
I think that most of you know the name because it is the most famous and the biggest city in Hokkaido.
Sapporo is located in west of Hokkaido and near from the sea.
Look at this map. ( the star shows the location of Sapporo)

Left picture shows the scenery of the center of Sapporo, right one shows around Susukino", which is famous as good drinking area in Japan.  Susukino is one of my favorite spot in Sapporo and I think this area is the best to feel urbanized atmosphere in my hometown.
































You may surprise, most of people in Sapporo uses subways compared to using bus in generally.
There are 3 lines all which go through the center of the city and from edge to edge of Sapporo.
Therefore we rarely worry about going far.
This is the map of subways.  You think its very useful, don't you?





















If you have a chance to come my hometown, I am sure you would not lost your way.
The map will tell you all...

... Did you get it?
The reason I told so is that street in Sapporo are laid out in grit pattern
In addition, the name of the streets also help your preventing lost your way, and its name will show the place where you are such as North 1-West 4 or South 4-West 2.
If you yet lost your way, please call me.



The season when there are the most travelers in Sapporo is winter.
You may have heard the name of "Sapporo snow festival".
Many people participate the snow carving competition and a lot of people around the world come and see those things.
At the same time, great and beautiful illuminations or snowboard competition.

 

Finally I introduce what I am studying.
Most of you might notice already, I major in humanities.
Especially now I am studying is contemporary international society.
The differences from education, as growing up the grade, our options what we want to study are expanding.
Since I was a high school student, my interest is almost about Africa.
That is why I want to be in Pf Philips's seminar no matter what.
After I graduate,  I want to be a member of JOCV and work at some African countries.
My dream is that relationship between Africa and Japan is more better and many Japanese interest in those area more.
For that reason, I want to improve my English skill, and I am needed to study more harder.



I would like to talk more with you.
Thank you.

My Major

My major is Japanese．In China there are so many people learning Japanese. According to a research of the Japan Foundation`s in 2006, China has the second highest number of Japanese-language students with approximately 830,000 . (“Japanese Foundation”,2)¹. As a Japanese learner I feel that just know Japanese it is hard to find a good job in China.

I studied Japanese for about 5years. I began with “あいうえお” at the university and then learned about Japanese grammar, then studied Japanese culture, literature and so on. When I became a graduate student, I learned something more professional. Such as the metalanguage, Japanese education and so on.

When the Japanese major`s students graduate, they can work at a Japan company, or become a translator, or a Japanese teacher.When I graduated from the university, half of my classmates went to study a graduate degree in Japan, and half of them work at a Japan company. And I chose to study a graduate degree at the same university. My dream is become a Japanese teacher in China.

In Advanced English class, I want to improve my English skill.

 

Now, I’ll introduce my hometown. I have lived in Hirosaki since I was born.

I love Hirosaki, which you can enjoy all the year.

We have sakura-matsuri in spring, neputa festival in summer, kiku-to-momiji-matsuri in fall, and yukitourou-matsuri in winter.

 

But the best Hirosaki is Mt.Iwaki !!

 

These are the pictures of it.

 

We can see it from our house.

As I get up and see it,  I can feel refreshed.

 

 

 

 

 

 

It's 1,624 meters above, and many people climb and ski in winter.

 

 I want you to enjoy many BEAUTIFUL HIROSAKIs （●＾o＾●）
