My boyfriend and I went to shopping center (Clair). There were many people. We looked for Christmas present each other. I wanted to get bag, I found a good bag so I got it from boy friend. I want to bring this bag anywhere, I really love it. My boyfriend was also finding something good one but he couldn’t find it, so we went to YouMe town. At there he found good items for Christmas present so I bought them for my boyfriend. He was glad to get them. After the shopping we went to my apartment and picked my things up, and then we went to my boyfriend’s apartment. We intended to order delivered pizza. But pizza shop was very busy and they said “you have to wait 2 hours”! We couldn’t wait 2 hours so we declined pizza and bought lunch at Hirai. We could be full but this meal was a little thin.

year-end party (brass band)
After the winter concert, our brass band held year end party at “Jyuttoku-ya”. Only upper 20 years old can attention to this party. It was very interesting party. We did a bingo and I got stopwatch. There were many gifts, for example MP3, takoyaki (octopus flitters) machine, rice cake, and so on. I ate many dishes and drinks and became full. After the party, my friend, senior and I went to McDonald. At there we talked about our brass band over bite. I backed to my house around 12; 30 a.m.
winter concert
Our brass band held winter concert. It was our first time to hold that concert. Until last year, we held only spring concert and we played many classical songs. But in winter concert, under 25 years old people in brass band were planed and we played not only classical songs but also pop music and short play. I play the part of Namihei in Sazae-san. I wore bald head toupee, glasses, false mustache, and yukata. It was very ashamed to wear them and play. But every one laugh and said “you are pretty” for me. Playing many songs was very tired and hard for me. But I was satisfaction of our performance.
Book Review 2-14: The legends of Sleepy Hollow and Rip Van Winkle
I like better The Legends of Sleepy Hollow than Rip Van Winkle. These stories were written by Washington Irving.
Sleepy Hollow is horror fiction. I saw this story’s film. It starred Johnny Depp and he played Ichabod Crane. The story is difference between book and film. In book, Ichabod is a schoolmaster. He is a little crazy man. One day he attends party and he was hit by headless horseman on his return road. Every one in sleepy hollow was worry about Ichabod and they thought he died. But he was alive in

Book Review 2-13: TITANIC!
I read TITANIC. The Titanic sinks April 14, 1912. She is a famous ship as a gorgeous and sunken ship. She was a believed unsinkable ship, but hit the iceberg and it sink. There were over 2200 passengers in Titanic, more than 1500 people died. This ship could carry more than 300o passengers, but it only had lifeboats for 1178 people. That is why many people died.

AND I LOVE YOU -by Dreams Come True
Yesterday I heard this song. I was greatly touched with this song and I cried. This song was written for vocalist’s lover. Her lover died recently. I had already known that before I listened this song. I intended to barrow this song’s CD from my friend. But my thought changed when I listened this song. I couldn’t hear this song without tears and I thought I want to keep this CD handy. So today, I bought it. I am listening it again and again. This song is only 2 minutes, but I cry every times. This song is very sad song but I love it. Almost person experience sad parting like her. I image my lover and my parting. It is very sad and I can’t stop my tears.

shopping
I went to shopping and I bought some clothes, one-piece dress, cardigan, and so on yesterday. I had gift coupon, so I could buy new clothes. Actually, I also would like to buy some jewelry, but I put up with them. I thought it is bad to do impulse buying. Some times I find cheaper and good item so regret that I did impulse buying. Maybe I will go another shop in several days, I will look for good jewelry at there. If I cannot find better one than I found yesterday, I will go to today’s shop again and buy it!
talking
During I was shopping, I dropt in with my friend at PARCO. She was shopping too. After the shopping, we went to Starbucks at New-S. We talked about any thing for about a hour, the time passed really quickly. It was fun time for me and she gave me good chance to think about future. I would like to talk with her more but it was time for practice in trumpet, so I had to go.

question
Yesterday I went to hospital, because I have stomachache. That hospital is near my house and it was first time for me to go to there. The doctor is kind for me. He tells me many things for me. I talked him about my brass band. I said to him “I play the trumpet at my brass band.” He was surprised at and said “oh, really? You don’t look so.” I said to him “what do you mean?” He didn’t answer my question just laughing. I am sometimes said that things- you really play the trumpet?? I don’t know what is the best reaction for that question.

Learning with computers
Before writing III & IV
Before I take writing III & IV class, I usually use computer in Japanese. For example, writing report and household accounts, online games, e-mail, and so on. Maybe when I was elementary school student, I learned typing. I practiced typing on game. It was fun for me and I came to like using the PC.
I can type quickly in Japanese but I cannot do very well that in English. I think it different from Japanese typing and English typing. During writing III & IV, I practice quick typing in English. I became a little faster than before. But I have to practice typing more and become good at typing in English.
I learned many things about computing during writing III & IV. For example, blog, many functions of Word, shortcut key, and so on. These are useful for polish up my computing skills.
Language learning
I read many books during writing class. At first, I didn’t like reading English books, because it is difficult for me. But recently, it becomes fun for me little by little. I usually reading books during bath time and drying my hair. Maybe my vocabulary is increasing.
During writing III & IV, I wrote many English sentences and posted these on this blog. At first I couldn’t write and compose English sentences quickly. Writing long English sentences, like essay, was really hard work for me. But my writing skill is gradually improved, I think. Now I can write English sentences easily than before I am and it is not so hard work for me. Posting on my blog is some time tough for me, because I don’t have news so many. But viewing my friend’s blog is fun for me. I can know my friend’s news and I can improve my English skills.
I would like to continue my blog after writing III & IV. I also would like to continue reading English books. These surely improve my English skills. Next summer I will go to Canada as an exchange student. So I must polish up my English. Maybe I will write dailies of Canadian life and post them on this blog.
Before I took writing III & IV, I don’t like writing English sentences and it was really hard work for me. During writing III & IV, I wrote many English sentences. I think my English sentences were gradually became good. Now I can write English sentences quicker and easier than before. I would like to continue this blog and improve my English skills more and more.
