About Men In Black

   I have ever watched Men In Black in Japanese. So I know mostly part of the story. But I had never watched the movie in English until I watched in this class. It was fresh to watch the movie in English. I like the movie because many aliens are on the earth and they live with human. I have never watched such a situation in other movies I have watched. So it is interesting for me. I am looking forward to watching the movie to the end. 

About Men In Black

I have never watched this movie.But, I've been interested in this movie.As I have heared that this movieis very funny.During I watch this movie,I felt terror.People who spend ordinary life changed incredible because of being attacked from arien.If they were in this real world....it's very sceard.I couldn't watch this movie,but little arien which is in the dead people said"orion belt..."I want to watch this movie until finish. I can't understand all phrases or words in this words.And, there are many words which I have never heared in daily English conversation.Are they native words? Are they slang words?:)

About Men In Black.

I seldom watch movies,so watching men in black made me feel fresh.I found a lot of slangs I know. I was very surprised to find them,because the movie had so many slangs than I expected.I sometimes talk with foreign people,but I have never heard them. I think slangs are very dirty words, so they  seldom use them. However,I wonder why men in black use them pretty a lot,why foreign people I talk with don't use them. The reason why I know them is my friends tell me them a lot. I think it funny, but I think I shouldn't use them because they are very dirty words and mede me less dignity.

About movie

     I saw a "Men in Black" for the first time. I have never seen a movie in English, but I could  understand...maybe.
     I felt fear when James Edwards became "J". He can't spend his daily days. I thought he wanted to enjoy abnormal days.
     I don't want to be such a risk taker. Of course, it's interesting for me to see his story.
    K is also a great character. He is cool, but sometimes a little playful. I felt something calm when he saw a woman in the screen.

My Favorite season

  I like winter for three reasons. First, I get hot easy and I'm not good with hot weather. So it is comfortable to live in winter. Second, I like skiing very much. I go to ski every winter and I enjoyed  skiing  last week. I took this picture on the day. Finally, I like the winter scenery.   It makes me very calm down. In conclusion, my favorite season is winter.

My favorite season is winter. One of the reasons is that my birthday is January. However, most important reason is that I like cold and clean air, so we can see more beautiful sky than the others seasons. Furthermore, especially in Hirosaki, there's snow. It's very cold, but I like snowy day. Snow in Hirosaki is powdery snow, so I think it is like powdered sugar. The whole city looks like miniature, and I was very impressed.

My favorite season

 I like summer the most all of the seasons. This is because we can enjoy many activities in summer, for example going to seas, going to summer festivals, and seeing fireworks. Summer makes us a little more positive. Furthermore, summer food is delicious and cool. These reasons why I like summer the best.
 This picture is one of my favorite summer activity, fireworks. Fireworks are beautiful and make us happy.

My favorite season

Winter is one of my favorites seasons because it is so beautiful to see everything covered with a white sheet of snow. I often went out side and build snowmen with my brother and father when I was elementary school. It is one of my favorite memories. Also, we can enjoy winter sorts! It is the season of the year that l enjoy the most. Akiko

The great director

I was surprised and impressed to find out this movie was released in 1940, before the United States entered World War II. But Chaplin's brilliance isn't limited to making a joke out of everything. Charlie Chaplin succeeds in being both extremely funny and witty and yet at the same time provides a strong statement in his satire against fascism. Now,there are many wars in the world. I want to provide a strong statement against the wars throuout a such movie. Akiko

My Favorite Season

     My favorite season is spring for three reasons. First, I like cherry blossoms. So, I go to Hirosaki Koen Park to see them every year. Second, the spring here is mild. And, it's comfortable to spend. Finally, I think spring is beginning of the year. And, I look if I were a fresh man. In conclusion, I love spring in all seasons.

The great dictator

 I was really surprised by this movie. This movie was made about 80 years ago, but I unconsciously burst into laughter many times , for example upside-down plane,bombshell scene. However, this movie is not only funny but also serious.

This movie teach me the persecution history of Jew. I think the movie is masterpiece.

about great dictator

  I was interested in a scene that Hynkel and a soldier operate a plane. The plane is upside-down , but both Hynkel and the soldier are not aware of that. The bottle of water is running out above them. However, they don't notice that the plane is upside-down. It looks very funny. At last, the soldier thanks to Hynkel. I think it interesting that this helps Hynkel later.

The Great Dictator

The Great Dictator

The place of this movie is Tomania(fiction).
My favorite scene is not common, but it is very interesting.
Surprisingly, the statue of Le Penseur of Rodin in this movie has raise their hand! In common, its hand puts on its head, but its hand made raise. It is not movie's scene, but I suppose it is most interesting thing.

The Great Dictator

I'd like to introduce the most interesting scene of The Great Dictator.It is the scene where Charry and Schultz fly by riding in an airplane. An upside-down flight was interesting. It was a funny movie.

The Greatest Dictator

I thought "The Greatest Dictator" is very serious movie. However, this movie is expressed as comedy film. This unbalance give us a sadness and folly of the war. My favorite scene is that Hinkle play with balloon resembled the earth. This scene is very famous and  express foolishness of the director. This movie made me think about the war and the importance of peace.

The Great Dictator

I saw the movie for the first time in the class. At first I thought that it was a serious movie about the war. But I found it made us laugh. I like the scene that Charlie and Schultz get on the plane. I heard that in the end of this movie, Charlie makes a very famous speech. I'm looking forward to see the movie until the end in the next class.

About winter vacation

I went back to my hometown,Kyoto.

The Great Dictator

  I'll tell you a scene of the Great Dictator which makes you laugh. Charlie who is a hero in the movie went to the battlefield in the First Word Wor. He struck a cannon, but the cannon did a misfire. He and the supporters who were near him were in a panic because the cannon may be explosive. After all, he tried to dispose of it. But it kept running after him and he ran away. This scene was very interesting. But there were also many fascinating scenes except this scene in this movie. I'm not watching this movie completely, so I'd like to watch continuation.

The Great Dictator

I introduce the most interesting scene of The Great Dictator. It is the scene which Charry and Schultz get on an airplane. When they get on a plane in the middle, the plane turns upside down. Schultz drinks water and the water flows back. I think the scene is very interesting. I'm curious about the consequence of the movie.

About my winter vacation

   I went to watch two soccer games in winter vacation. The games were Kashiwa Reysols' games. First game in Sendai was very exciting because Reysol won dramatically.

About Winter Vacation

During this winter vacation, I went to Hakata with my friends. We had a good time there.The best memory there was to go to "yatai". We ate a ramen noodle. It was very nice. The taste is a pork bone but it tasted plain too. We became full. In "yatai", there were a lot of food. I wanted to eat a variety of kinds of food, but I was full very much, so I could not eat more. If I hadn't ate a ramen noodle, I could have ate other food. For example, yakisoba,steak and gyoza. Finally, I bought "me taiko" for my family. After all, this trip was very interesting. I want to go to Hakata again.

 On New Year's Day, I went to New Year's visit to the shrine. I visited to Tanabu shrine in my hometown with my friends. We consulted oracles in the shrine. All friends except me drew blessing, but I drew a small blessing. First, I thought that I was unfortunate because only I drew the small blessing. But unbelievably, the small blessing is better than blessing in Tanabu shrine. There are some shrines such as Tanabu shrine. I was happy because I knew that I was fortunate.

 I spent much time with my friends during this winter vacation. After coming back to my hometown Osaka after Christmas Day, I had some opportunities to meet some of my old friends to have a dinner.   Each dinner was special for me because I hadn't met the friends for along time and had to talk a lot about things around us each other. I am happy because they all seem to enjoy their own campus life even though we live far away each other.
 And the last day of 2015, I spent with three of my highschool friends to celebrate the new year. We visited a famous temperature at the midnight of the January 1st. The temperature was very crowd.
 After that we ate and drank a little and we decided to see the first sunrise of this year. So we went to Sky Buillding that is very tall in Osaka city to see the sunrise. We arrived at around 5 o'clock and waited for over 2 hours. Finally we could see the special sunrise. It was so beautiful.

I'll tell you my winter vacation. Although going back my home, I must usually do my homeworks. In spite of short vacation, I cannot understand there are so many tasks I have to do. Finally, I could be a university student, but I couldn't imagine I must do such a difficulty task. …Well, ironically, I don't have any plan now. Obediently, I will spend rest time to achive tasks…

My vacation

I met my friend after a long time in this vacation. Our relationship is good since we were in elementary school. His house is near my house so we played a lot in each house. His mother and father went to the travel a few days ago so I stayed in his house. We played games and watched movies without sleeping. He is good at playing games so I could not win him. We see horror film but it was not very scary so we talked a lot in the middle of a movie. I made a promise to meet again on January 3. I'm looking forward to that day.

about my holiday

On December 23,  I spent a pleasant day with my family. I got up at noon and had a brunch(Every time it is a holiday, I do same things).And then, my brother gave me a notebook as a Christmas present. It was nice one so I'm grateful for him. After that, we spent all day watching movies at home.　We seldom have such a day so I was very glad.

About holiday

  Today, December 23, is a holiday. I enjoyed today’s activities. This morning, I got up at 11. I overslept because I had talked with my friends in the midnight. We talked about each club activities. Then, I went to my friend’s house and ate spaghetti for branch. After that, I came back my home and made apple pie. It was very delicious. My older brother said “I like more sweet pie, so you should add more sugar next time. If I have free, I’ll make it again. During the cooking, I read manga, “one peace”. One peace is very popular manga in Japan, but I hadn’t read it yet. In fact, it is attractive and excited. I was satisfied with today. I’m looking forward to next holiday.

A Holiday

     In a holiday, I had slept in the morning. But, I went to Hirosaki University in the afternoon. And, I did kendo. I was tired, but enjoyed it. After I got home, I cleaned my room. So, I went to bed at eleven p.m. In short, you think that my holiday is very boring, but it's so significant for me.

About A Holiday

     I introduce Golden Week to you. This means three successive holidays from may 3rd to 5th, which include costitution memorial holiday, Green day and children's day. Thanks to this, we don't have to go to school and work during Golden Week. So many people go shopping and sightseeing. Due to this, malls and places for sightseeing are very crowded during the period. We should check spots before going these places during that.

Holidays

Today is a holiday: the birth of the emperor, the symbol of Japan. Today, there are several places hold celebrations for  the birth of the emperor. For example, Ise shrine, the imperial court and so on. On the other hand, Japanese common people don't do that. We simply     feel lucky to get times to lest.

About my holiday

I am going to go back home on December 25th for the winter vacation.

I am really looking forward to the day because I will spend time with my daughter.

I  already reserved a Christmas cake for the special day.

It was difficult to reserve the cake because it is very famous.

She is a seven-month old baby, so probably she will never remember the day.

However, one day she will see pictures of Christmas,and then I would like her to feel happy.

So I will do my best for the Christmas.

My Holiday

On December 23, the Emperor's Birthday my father and my mother came to Hirosaki. We went to a supermarket to buy the ingredients for dinner. Also, we went to Yamanakaya because I wanted to eat grilled meats. I ate skirt steaks, beef ribs, broiled pig innards and livers. I ate grilled meats after a long time, so I was satisfied with them. I was happy to spend time with my father and mother. The New Year will soon come round, so I want to go home in Odate.  

About "oshougatsu"

I’ll tell about “oshougatsu”. In Japanese, New Year is called “oshougatsu”, and the very first day of the year is called “gantan”.New Year’s Day is a very important day for the Japanese people.There are many events and customs to celebrate New Year’s Day. Some people climb up the mountain before dawn to see the first sunrise of the year. People decorate their houses with special decorations. “Kadomatsu”, two groups of bamboo to place in front of the entrance; “shimenawa”, a sacred straw rope to protect the door; and “kagamimochi, round, piled up rice cakes to appreciate and eat as a token of wellbeing. People send each other New Year’s cards called “nengajyo”.This is usually designed with symbols of good luck or the animal of the year out of the 12 animals in the Chinese astrological calendar. Many people go to shrines to make wishes for the coming year. This event is called “hatsumoude”.

About a holiday

 Japan has 16 national holidays, for example, the Emperor's Birthday which is on Decemver 23nd, the New Year's Day which is on January 1st, and National Foundation Day which is on February 11th. This year will end soon and the New Year's Day will come. I looking forward to coming next year. In Japan many people do a general cleaning for next year and eat toshikoshisoba hoping their long life, then go to a shrine listening a bel ringing out the old year. In addition to these things Japanese often eat osechi dishes at the New Year's Day. I like it very much because all of my family gether and eat talking some memories of the last year and  the goal of the year. There are mane smailes on my family member's faces.

my topic is ''Christmas truce''.

many people all over the world are looking forward to Christmas. It's a special day for them also in Japan. Keeping Christmas has important meaning in some places in the world.
Then,take ''Christmas truce'' for example and I'll talk about it.
On December 24, 1914, under the WWⅠ,England and German army were stand face to face with and fought in the trenches .Both of army were tired out in the war. Then suddenly,Charles Brewer, who was an officer of England found something lighting in the trench of their enemy at the Christmas Eve's night. That was a Christmas tree.Moreover,they heard a song 'Silent Night' in German .England arms began to sing together.And at the crack of down, all of them came out from trench and stopped fighting.

That is a story I love.
