★His Birthday★

We went downtown by his car yesterday. We used a photo sticker for the first time, and it was taken well. We went to WE GO to look for matching straps, but they did not serve one. We went to STONE MARKET next. There were a lot of natural rocks, which were really beautiful and interesting, so we were immersed in looking them. There were many straps, but the prices of them were high, so we gave up buying one there. We went to LOTTERIA and ordered a zeppin cheese burger and a zeppin onion burger. The cheese burger was so good and the other was good. We bought chobo-yaki in the streets. It was like okonokiyaki so was delicious. We stopped into LOTTERIA for the second time on the day. For he liked a zeppin cheese burger which we ate a few minutes ago. I ordered an Anmochi pie, and it was so good.

We went to see a view we could not buy for any sum. It was just like diamonds. We went to BULLDOG to look for the said straps. We bought loose sweets and found the straps at last! We chose straps with TV stones. His stone was colored yellow and mine was blue.

After that we went to WAIST to have dinner. I ordered an udon with meat and great burdock's tempura he ordered a bukkake udon with pickled ume. They were good.

★Essay: My Favorite Place★

My favorite place is a campus at Kumamoto Gakuen University. I have gone there for about two years since 2007. I have liked this campus as soon as I went there for the first time.

The atmosphere in campus is to my liking. There are times when it is quite place, and there are times when it is noisy place. On the early mornings, there are few people; on the other hand, at noon or in the afternoons, there are a lot of people there. I like not only a place alive with people but also a place that is perfectly still.

I have a lot of friends in KGU, so I can meet some of them every day. When I go there, I am in high spirits, so glad to think that I can do so. Sometimes I study on the benches until one of friends of mine who I wait for come to me. I read English books, English paper which I am given by my English teacher when I take the English class, or I draw up my schedules on my schedule pocket notebook.

Also sometimes I have lunch with friends of mine there at lunch periods. I feel box lunches are more delicious outside the buildings than I do inside. I can take in some fresh air and eat foods there seeing scenery that changes with the seasons. There are much of natures such as a clear blue sky and light, fleecy clouds the dazzling sun and blue grasses on the daytimes and a cluster of stars in the evenings. And there are many flowers and trees such as cherry blossoms in springs, green leaves in summers, colored leaves and ginkgoes in falls and naked trees in winters. Because of that I can enjoy a variety of scents by seasons. There are some animals, too. For example some cats come there sometimes and there are a lot of insects in the sky or on leaves. When some cats come there, we pet them very much. They often stay at a parking lot.

Also there are a lot of buildings to study and eat in campus. We can enjoy reading a variety of books at the library. We can borrow a lot of books from there. We can eat a variety of breads in a bakery. We can have our breakfasts, lunches and dinners in a student cafeteria. We can use computers in building 14th.

We always take something action in the campus. We enjoy chatting with people, eating something, walking on the path in the campus, dozing over books, greeting each other, sitting on the bench or standing to wait for someone.

As stated above, we can enjoy really many things in the campus. Therefore the campus in KGU is one of my favorite places.

BR 2-02: A Monster on the Streert

There would be a crash! If I were there, what can I do? The piano was lumbering towards some people, and the man on top was shouting. Such a thing cannot have occurred at all. I could not believe it. Quick! Give me their jumpers. When they pulled off their jumpers, I just grabbed the jumpers and threw them into the middle of the road. They probably think that what I am going to do first. But this is my plan. Donut demanded that what I did that for. He was staring at his best jumper. However, it might not work, but it was the only thing I could think of. They watched with popping eyes as the piano thundered down the road. It was so interesting to me. The other removal men chased after it, and my thinking was like this, too. A man was so shocked he fell off his bike, so I was really sorry to see him. One of the piano wheels hit the pile of jumpers, so I thought go more! The wheel jammed as one jumper was dragged round and round and the piano lumbered across the road, so I thought it was so strange. The man on top still yelled, and he slid across the lid and was thrown clear, so I felt easy, but on the other side, I thought it was really pity. The piano skidded to one side and came to a stop, so I thought he looked painful. The removal man came running up, panting hard, and I thought he was so tough. That was a very clever thing to do. Ben looked happy, too. They were very lucky it worked. I thought don’t ever ask the one to move a piano again.

By this time a small crowd had come to see what all the fuss was about. Donut and Cleo’s parents came running down the road, so I thought he was loved them at all. Cassandra Pringle looked rather like Cleo, only bigger, so I thought it was not good very much. She had long dark hair too, and lots of bangles, so I wanted to make myself look attractive. Mrs. Pringle swept Cleo into her arms, so I felt happy. She kissed Cleo again and again, and I thought it was good thing very much. Mrs. Pringle’s giant earrings kept banging in Cleo’s face, so it looked irritating. Cleo struggled to escape, and I thought it was funny. Cleo wanted to be called her a queen rather than a princess, but if I were she, I do not think so.

Mrs. Pringle was not good at cooking, so I did not want to eat some her dishes. She was a terrible cook, but she did not think that she is good at cooking. I also like to cook, and I think I am good at cooking more than she at least. She made the peanut butter omelets to the children, and it looked so bad. The children wanted to eat them, and I will do like that, too.

After finishing our dinner, it was rain outside of the restaurant. I came to KGU by bicycle yesterday morning, but it looked impossible to go home by bicycle at all. She suggested that she lent me an umbrella. She called her father to ask him to pick her up at in front of the restaurant, and she told him about me, too. Then he decided that he drive me over to my house by his car.

We waited him at a prefectural theater. After a few minutes, he came to us, and we got into the car. He drove me over to my house, so I really appreciated him.

Then we stopped in at LAWSON to buy two drinks in plastic bottles, a caramel custard pudding, a blueberry yogurt and mochipuyo.
We watched DVDs together at her house. “After 100 years” was grotesque and terrible very much.

The caramel custard pudding was not bad. The blueberry yogurt had no lipid and was still delicious. Mochipuyo was very good taste and we liked it so much.
We had dinner in Joyfull. I ordered a Hawaiian pork steak with white rice, miso soup and some pickled vegetables, and coarse-grind sausages. The menu in Joyfull had been done renewal, and I was so glad to know that they served a Hawaiian hamburger steak and a Hawaiian pork steak which I like very much anew.

After dinner, we drove to Kumamoto harbor with two more friends of mine. There were a surprisingly large number of people who were angling at night, so we were seeing them. We left from the harbor stealthily because we found a police patrol car, he-he.

We went to Cybac after that. We sang in the karaoke room, had some games of darts, played some games of pool, and played table tennis. We were afire with enthusiasm and full of fight very much there.

When I chanced to look at my watch, it was 5:30 a.m.. We got so caught up in our playing a variety of games that we did not notice how late it was getting.

I and the friend of mine who were the aforesaid the foremost had parked our bicycles at Joyfull, so we were driven over there by the rest of three friends of mine. We went home from there.

I was so sleepy today.

BR 2-01: Ben and the Ghost

First, I wondered why Mr and Mrs King were going out for the night. But they did had an invitation card to a dinner and dance party. The Kings were dressed up as ghosts, but I will be dressed up as a princess. Ben said Kings did not look scary at all, I also thought they looked funky rather than scary. Tessa thought it was silly to go to a party looking like a ghost. I thought Tessa was not wrong. She would dress up like a pop star, and I thought it was also good. I expected that she did not want to be seen dead dressed like a grotty ghost. It was nice to know that Ben and Tessa were so proud of their parents.

Mr and Mrs King were going to sleep at the hotel overnight, and I also wanted to go to beautiful and clean hotel then to fall asleep. Ben and Tessa were going to stay with their grandparents, Big G and Little G, and I thought they were cowards and cute. Little G gave Ben a hug and a big kiss, so I felt envious of their love, but he wiped his cheek. I thought he did not like kisses. Mrs King smiled at him and gave him an even bigger kiss, and I thought Mrs King was funny and humorous. Ben fell to the floor because he had been kissed by a ghost.

I was surprised to see rain fall from the sky like a giant waterfall, suddenly. It was easy to change the weather as I thought. The four of them raced up the road and burst into the house, and I have done like this before, too. They stood in the hallway with water dripping from their clothes, so it looked really cold, and I worried if they got cold. They looked as if they have been swimming.

Ben and Tessa did not have any dry clothes to change into, so that was too bad. They had to wear their pajamas, but I thought it was only natural that it should came to this. Big G and Little G hung up the children's wet clothes to dry, so I thought they were still kind to the children. Big G and Little G went to change their clothes and were wearing pajamas too. The pattern on their pajamas was so unique; like a traditional Japanese handball or a lemon and a ball of fire or a comma-shaped bead. I thought only their party was going to be a Pajama Party!

The table in the front room was loaded with food, and it looked and smelled wonderful, so I got hungry so much then. After they had finished eating Big G put some music on, and he began to whirl Tessa round the room, so I felt like dance and sing soon. They could not stop laughing during the party, and I thought it was good to laugh together.

When bedtime came Ben and Tessa were worn out, and they were both fast asleep soon, so I got sleepy, too. In the middle of the night Ben woke up, so I expected he had to go to the lavatory. I could not explain why but for some reason he could not remember where he was. He stared into the darkness, and I gulped. A white shape drifted past the end of the bed, so I was very scared. Ben's hair stood on end, so I thought it was a ghost! There was a ghost in the bedroom! Tessa woke up and began screaming, and then I was much more scared. She could not see the ghost, but she screamed anyway, and I thought I also have done like this if I were she.

Big G and Little G ran into the bedroom and switched on the light, so I felt easy a little. What was the matter? Little G hugged Ben tightly, and this time he did not mind at all, so I also wanted to be hugged by Little G. My heart was still banging. What was the true form of an apparition?

The answer was Ben's T-shirt. It made me feel easy but what a pity a little. It was interesting that Ben's T-shirt was scarier than his parents. That was the time to be able to get some sleep. Goodnight everyone!

Her main dish was spaghetti of Japanese littleneck clam, and mine was cheese pork saute.

I put two bag in the basket at the front of my bicycle, then I went home unsteadily.

First, I made a vegetable salad. I cut a half of a head of cabbage into tiny pieces and washed them in a perforated basket made of plastic. I cut a cucumber into diagonal slices, cut two tomatoes into four parts, then I put corn on them.

Next, I made curry. I stirred-fry pork, onions, potatoes and carrot with minced garlics in oil. I put nutmeg in them. After being boiled soft, I put some water in them and boiled. Boiling for about 15 minutes, I put some blocks of curry roux in them and boiled more 10 minutes.

My family ate curry and rice and a vegetable salad which I made. All members said that it was delicious and ate with enjoyment. It made me so glad, and I want to make meals for my family again.

★Karaoke★

I went on to a karaoke place close to KGU with a friend of mine after school.
We went there by bicycle and sang for about 1 hour.
I can not sing without some water, so I bought a drink in a plastic bottle then sang together.
It was short time, but we had a very good time there.
I want to go there again.

★Happy Birthday★

In September 26, I have reached 20 years old.

Thank you for sending me birthday mails and saying me "happy birthday!" at KGU. I was really happy then and thank you very much. Also I thank my parents to bring me up, my family to support me and friends of mine to be good friends with me for 20 years.
People I have met, memories I have, and the day of today are all treasures to me.
I'm really glad to think that I'm happy to be born.
Even if there are some troublesome from now on, I will live my life cheerfully with my chin up.
Please watch over me fondly and support me also from now on.

Really thank you, everyone :)
