Foreign countries

I have never been to any foreign countries in my life. I wanted to go though I had not a chance. But I’m going to go to the U.S. in this summer. It is a school’s home stay program. I’m looking forward to visiting my host family. I hope that they are kind. I feel a little nervous because I have never leaved my home about one month, even Japan. I want to talk with my host family a lot. And I want to teach some easy Japanese words because

Book review 1-10 [The Baby Day]

I read an interesting story. The book name is ‘The Baby Day’. A girl who called Clare came to Billy’s school. She doesn’t like her new school and her classmates don’t like her too. That why, she is so spiteful. One day, Billy’s sister came to his class with his mother. She is Jasmine. Everyone liked her, but Clare didn’t. Jasmine could talk, walk, and climb in myself. Everyone delighted with her cute behavior, but Clare didn’t admire not at all. Then, Jasmine got a paintbrush! She wrote everywhere and everyone was laughing so much. Clare was too. She became to like to Jasmine very much. Billy was pleased and satisfies. That was good story because babies have great ability to make people happy, you know.

Determination

I decided to take the exam to go to study abroad. Recently, I feel so nervous. Because I have many things what I must do. For example, there are each class’s assignment, part time job, study for TOEFL, and study about abroad where I want to go. I sometimes annoyed everything. But if I can do everything, I will be satisfied. I want to do my best for my great future.
I want to go to New Zealand to study abroad. I have many reasons. One of the reasons, my best friend comes from New Zealand. He told me “New Zealand is great country! You should come!” and showed me a lot of pictures of New Zealand. It was so beautiful and great. I thought I want to see them myself. To go to study abroad, I should take some exams. First, I should take TOEFL on 14th Jun. I have to study from now too…

Essay-5 [The worst day in my life]

When is the worst day in my life? I didn't remember all of them. Human beings try to forget about bad things to protect myself. I will talk about the worst day as possible as I remember.
When I was junior high school student, the day came. One day, I went to somewhere with my mother by car. My mother was driving as she talked to me. She said ‘I have to hospitalization.’ I was surprised, but I thought she isn’t so bad. ‘It may take long-term hospitalize. You must take care of your brothers, I’m sorry’ It meant her condition is too bad. I asked her the reason of hospitalize. She got cancer. I was really shocked when I heard the truth.
A few days later, she went to the hospital. I had to cook dinner for the member of my family, but I couldn’t. I had to do club activity and study for an exam. My grandmother cooked dinner for us. I studied something, but I couldn’t concentration. I worry about her very much. I wanted to visit her but I couldn’t, because I had to go to the junior high school. And I didn’t have driver’s license so I couldn’t go by myself. My father sometimes visited her to bring something what she need. I wanted to meet her very much. On holiday, my father took me and my brothers to visit my mother. She seemed fine and I pleased to see it. We enjoyed talking with my mother.
My mother had to have an operation for cancer. I cried to hear it. I felt strong anxiety for her safety. But I just believed her. There was nothing I can do. Some of my friends worried about my mother and me. They cheered me up and I felt better. Thanks a lot.
The operation did without hindrance! My mother could discharge from the hospital. I was happy. It is happy for me to live healthy with my family, I thought. Those days were the worst days in my life. I want my mother to live fine. Other members of my family, my friend, my teacher, too! Health is so important!

Book review 1-9 [Mr. Putter and Walk the Dog]

I read 'Mr. Putter and Tabby Walk the Dog.' Mr. Putter and his cat, Teddy lived next door to Mrs. Teaberry and her small dog, Zeke. They helped each other so they were happy living side by side. One day slipped and hurt her foot. Mr. Putter and Tabby took her to the doctor. The doctor said ‘This foot needs a rest.’ Mrs. Teaberry cried because she wouldn’t walk her dog. Mr. Putter said ‘I will. I will walk your dog’. She was glad to hear that.
Mr. Putter said ‘Zeke is a dream dog.’ But Zeke wasn’t so. In fact, he was a nightmare. He tugged Mr. Putter and Tabby anywhere. The next day, he wrapped them. The next day, he chased other dogs. Mr. Putter and Tabby was tired so much. They weren’t sure they could live through four more days with Zeke. But they came up with a deal.
The deal is that Zeke will get a nice surprise after his walk. He was a smart dog so he didn’t tug, wrap, and chase. He became a dream dog.
Finally, Mr. Putter and Tabby took Zeke to his home. They said good bye and went back home and had a party. I think that Zeke is not dream dog! I don’t want to have a dog like this.

Food and eating habits

Japan has many eating habits. Each prefecture has each eating habits. For example, Kumamoto is famous for Karashi Renkonn and Basashi and Ikinaridango. People who don’t live in Kumamoto are Japanese too, but they usually don’t eat them. The restaurant that I work part time job serves other prefecture people and foreign people. They were surprise after ate it!! I want many people to know our eating habits. And I want to know other prefecture and foreign eating habits.
