My Winter Vacation

 I had a concert of Hirosaki University Wind Ochestra on December 27th. I played the french horn. My mother came to the concert from Hokuto. It was a long day.

 Next day, I went back to my hometown, Hokuto with my mother. That night, I went to the party which my brass band club member and a teacher of when I was in 1st grade of junior high school gathered. After that, I took Pri-Cra with 4 boy members !

 On 29th, I went to the concert which my piano teacher held. My brother and band members of my high school performed at the concert. My brother plays the trumpet. He is learning it from my piano teacher's husband. He teaches all the brass and wind instruments.

 On 30th,  I went to my grandmother's house to make some rice cakes. My brother, cousin and aunt were there too. At evening, I went to the buffet restaurant with my family and relatives. The foods were so delicious !

 On January 1st, I went to church to attend the new year service in the morning. I got the bookmark which a passage from the Bible is written. After that, I went to my grandmother's house and got some Otoshidama.

 On 3rd, I met to former classmates of junior high school. We talk a lot all through the night. I think they are my best friend of my life.

 On 4th, I went to my high school and taught some 8 brass members of their wind ochestra.  They were the member of enemble contest. Also my brother was the member. They played so difficult piece. They won the Hakodate Area contest and they will participate in the All Hokkaido contest. I'm so proud of them. That night, I came back to Hirosaki.

my winter vacation

I'm sorry to be late.

My vacation went by very quickly.
I have two memories in particular.
First, I went to ION SHOPPING MALL in Kashiwa on December 28th.
I like train trip, so I took a train.
I enjoyed shopping and browsing at many stores very much.
I got a very cute knit hat.
I had such a productive day.

Second, I visited some shrines and a temple at the beginning of the new year.
This is an yearly routine of my family.
My family go to the horyuji temple just after the turn of the year and go to the each temples of ichidaisama, which means enshrining animal symbols.
I was born in the year of the Boar, so I casted a paper fortune in hachimansama, resulting in average good luck.
I'll hang tough this year as well consulting this fortune 😊

movie

I'm so sorry my late.
I'll write about my favorite movie.

It's "fast&furious". In Japan, called "wild speed".
It's a production of Universal Pictures and six titles have been released   since 2001.
Vin Diesel and Paul William Walker IV have stared in this series except for the 3rd title.

It is a story of those guys who like cars and driving them on streets.
Their love , fellowship and big dream are described in the movie.

But November 30th, 2013 a shocking accident happened.
Paul Wauker and his friend were dead in a traffic accident.
Next year, 2015, his last starred movie will be released.
I'll never miss it.

vacation

I spent the vacation with my family or friends.

My family haven't changed a bit.
I was happy when I knew that my grandmother, grandfather and the other members were fine.
But I want my grandmother not to do housework so hard. She is not  in her twenties or thirties.
I hope my grandparent's long life.



My friends also were fine. Their figure have changed, but they are my friends.
January 2, we went to karaoke and sang all night. It's harder than working all night at convenience store for me.
But it was so pleasant.

It was a great vacation!
I wish the vacation would have lasted forever.

Thank you for your reading.

Good morning.

I spent most of my vacation with my family.

We had a nice time to eat dinner,watch the Red and White singing contest (which is called Kouhaku utagassen in Japanese), and talk with each other.

On New Year's Day, we visited my grandmother lives in Tsuruta town.
I saw relatives after a long time,and talk about my school life and so on.

My Vacation

  Good morning, everyone! I`m listening to youtube, Blingirl English.

  I came back my hometown, Hachinohe in winter vacation.
  I went from Hirosaki to Hachinohe with rain boots. That is because it was just un case snowy days when coming to Hirosaki. But in Hachinohe, there is seldom snow. So I stood out!











  I ate to much because Hachinohe`s food are so good!

  I can eat nice seafood.



  Over the New Year holidays, relatives get together. After watching the movie summer wars, I think that the bond between them is so important. What`s more, it is fun to meat them sometimes.

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

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.

Ryunosuke
