Vacation plans

Summer vacation is just around the corner! Do you have summer vacation plan? Also, what do you do in this summer? Today, I will take about my summer vacation plan. First, I promised my old friends go to Tokyo Disneyland someday when we were a high school student. Why we go to in Tokyo, because our friend of high school days lives in the Kanto area. Moreover, we want to visit a lot of tourist spots in Tokyo. I want to go “Tokyo sora machi”, “Shibya hikarie” and 109, in particularly. Also, Tokyo skytree is very famous recently. However, we may not meet the friend of living in Chiba because of she has on-the-job training this summer vacation. So, we hope that meet her! However, I don’t have money much, so I have to save money!! Secondly, I’m going to go to the sea with my classmate. So, we are planning about it now. Thirdly, I will meet my friend after a long time. She was a former colleague of part-time job, and I resigned part-time job in June, too. However, we are good friend! So, I look forward to summer vacation!

Sweets!!!

Do you like sweets? I like it! Today, I had a parfait with Yurie and Mako at Amamiya in Kamitori. Well then, I want to write its reason now. I studied in the library with Yurie, but it was not being carried out. And Mako came to in the library. Because each of us had business, we went out together in downtown. I need rental a foreign TV drama’s DVD in rental shop because I have to hand in an essay about foreign TV drama in next Friday. By the way, I went out with Yurie and Mako for the first time unexpected. So, it was rare member! And then, we arrived in Shimotori and we wanted to eat something sweets. That’s why, we went to Amamiya. It is very famous as Japanese sweets. I visited there for the first time and I was bubbling with expectation. I couldn’t choose a parfait easily because there are many kinds of sweets in this café. So, I chose a chocolate parfait at last. It was very delicious! Also Yurie’s parfait was very splendid! We talked anything, so it was happy time for me, and we took “Purikura” in game center. We promised them to eat out this time! Mako and Yurie, thank you so much for inviting me!

BR:1-05 Planet Earth

Things can live on Earth because it has the right mixture of heart, air and water. The Sun keeps the planet warm. Living things-people, animals and planets-all need air to breathe. Over half of the Earth is covered in water. All living things need water to stay alive. (P. 4)

I read book about other than the story for the first time. So, I have ever read the story. This is book about earth, so this is written many things about earth. It was an interesting book for me. I was able to learn a lot about the earth thanks to this book. Moreover, it was easy to read for me because of there were written a lot of illustrations and photographs. I thought that the photograph of underground caves is very beautiful in particularly. (P.18~19) Also, I thought that I found a little about earth.

Exercise

Do you like sport or exercise? Also, how many times do you exercise in a week? I don’t like to exercise since I was my childhood. I don’t like a running and a ball game in particularly. By the way, I went running after a long time with Moeko last night. Moeko proposed go running to me yesterday, so I was surprised at it. However, I decide to go running with her because of I get exercise very little recently. I remembered that have run about 12 kilometer in school marathon contest when I was a high school student. It was very, very tired for me. And we went running after supper. We enjoining went running the first half, but we went running seriously the latter half. So, I was in a sweat on T-shirt after we went running. It was very tired for me and I became have a pain in my feet. However, running is good for my health, so I think that I want to go running another time!!

The Star Festival

 

Yesterday, it was the Star Festival. Do you know the Star Festival? Today, I will take about it. It was a seasonal festival such as Japan, Taiwan and China. Also, it came from China in the Nara era. So, I think that its history is very deep. The Star Festival is very famous Altair, Vega, a bamboo leaf, and the Milky Way. Also, The Star Festival holds in each place in Japan. Moreover, we hang the paper of the wish to a bamboo leaf. My house displayed bamboo grass in the Star Festival day every year until I was a primary schoolchild. Of course, the bamboo grass of every year was very small. And I remember that I looked forward to the decoration of the bamboo leaf at the time. So, my house’s bamboo grass was always gaudily decorated. Also, I remember that I wrote a lot of wish at the time. The Star Festival is the day when Altair and Vega can meet once a year. So, it is very special day for them. I always think that I want to see the Milky Way, but I have never seen it. So, I want to see it someday!!
