Bamboo shoot!

     I had a class in Friday. The class is a literary world of the U.K. It is small class. I sat next at Mako. She is my pleasant friend. I have an appointment to eat out with her on Monday. I can hardly wait for it. I like eating out. Today, I went to an Italian restaurant with my mother. We ate fresh pasta and it was very good! It had many spring vegetables. For example, butterbur scapes, bamboo shoots. I don’t know how to say “Takenoko” in English. I learned it now! I used it next opportunity! I want to know more wards that I can use.

Letter for host family

How do you do. My name is Rena. I live in Kumamoto, Japan. I study English in KGU. Though this is my second time going overseas. I am very excited to see and learn a different culture though you and other people I may meet. I have lived in France when was ten years old. The chance was valuable for me. Foreign countries have a lot of different culture. I want to touch different cultures. I regret not having studied harder before I lived in France. Now, I study English because I want to talk to many foreign people. So thank you very much for accepting me. I am looking forward to meeting you and experiencing a lot of things in your beautiful country. Although I am not so good with English. I will do my best to improve and I am preparing hard to be able to communicate with you.

Let me introduce myself. There are four people in my family. My hobby is playing the acoustic guitar. My father teaches me how to play the guitar. I began it recently and I practiced a song which is named “Wings to Fly”. It is a very clear song. The first time I sang the song, I joined the chorus club. When I was a junior high school student, I was in the club. I like to sing songs very much. I was enrolled in a local chorus group. The group has a lot of interesting performances like dancing and other actions. We presented some musicals. After I entered high school, I joined the drama club. We shot original short movies. In other activities, we had four performances. My favorite character is “strawberry princess”. The character is very cute and cheerful. I learned to have a supple mind for the role. I want to put my experience in the drama club to immediate account for my home stay.

I just can hardly wait to see you. Please say “Hi!”to all your family for me. See you soon!

Why are you interested English?

       I have never thought that question. But maybe the answer is simple. I like English between I was child. I had lived in France for three years. Then my father often told me to study English. But I did not study hard and I was not good at speaking English. When I play at the park near my apartment of France, a girl talked to me. But I could not speak anything. I must study English hard. I want to talk with a person from another country and to sing English song fluently. I like Rehanna whom songs make me cheer. I have a dream which must come true. I bend to my study.

Sleeping Beauty

       Today, I introduce my favorite fairy story to you. Have you ever read “Sleeping Beauty”? I think that a crowd of people had read the story when they were child. My parents gave me a lot of books. I often read some books before I went to bed. This story’s heroine was waiting very long time. I do not like waiting.  As soon as I have the fidgets, I cannot wait a prince. One of the characters of Nightshade is bad witch who cast a spell on the princess. She did not invite to birthday party by the king. She got angry over the thing. I little understand what she thought. It is difficult for us to live in friendship together. Who is true bad?

The Swan Princess

          Do you know the story which is named “The Swan Princess”? I had read the story when I was child. The heroine’s name is Eliza. She is very kind and beautiful. She has eleven brothers. They are hand some and noble. They lived quietly in the caste. But they can’t live in peace and quiet because their father remarried a woman who is secretly a witch. The marriage is the beginning of unhappy. Eliza made some shirts which were made by nettles for her brothers whatever happens. The scene is the most impression for me. She helped with her brothers at the sacrifice of herself. It was touching story. Do you have the person who you want to help for dear your life?

The Little Mermaid

    I was filled with heartrending now because I read a sad story. That’s name is The Little Mermaid. She had fallen in love with prince. But she had no legs and she couldn’t walk the ground. She paid a high price for her love. Her voice was given to the witch as dearly. She helped prince for angry waves, but he had fallen in love with another girl who is princes of ground. It was almost irritating to read it. He marry to another princes but he said “Don’t worry, you can come with me.” It is cruelty word for her. If she is abandoned by him, she dissolves into the ocean waves. The story is getting closer bad end. I can’t help crying to read the story.

Beauty & the Beast

       One of my favorite story is Beauty and the Beast. I had read the story fourteen years ago. I am afraid of the strange prince. But beauty is difficult. She sees through his kind hart. She isn’t afraid of him. She told him Coward. If she had been boy, she couldn’t have live. The Beast is terrible. But he contact with her, gradually he took back mind hart. He wants to marry to Beauty. And he used to have been placed in confinement for her. He said ‘Marry me, Beauty.’ She said softly ‘I like you, but I don’t love you.’ Love is difficult. By the way, I was surprised the end of story. Beauty has two spite sisters. They were transformation into stone by fairy. I don’t know that truth.
