My favorite animal

My favorite animal is a dog but I don’t have any dogs, so I’ll introduce about my boyfriend’s dog.

   My boyfriend has a Labrador. His name is Rick. He is black and big so I was afraid of him and I couldn’t touch him at first. He came to my boyfriend’s house about 10 years ago. He was born as a dog working with policemen, but his mother had to many children so he didn’t become working dog and came to a family. It’s my boyfriend’s house.

   First time I went to my boyfriend’s house, Rick welcomed me with running and jumping. I know he was happy to see me but I don’t like big dogs so I escaped but gradually I learn that he never bite human and he is very good dog.

   His charm point is eyes, I think. His eyes are big and always twinkle. Especially he is very cute when he looks at my eyes. In these days, he put his hand to my hand even though I don’ t say “Ote!” The movement is so cute!

   Now I can touch and play with big dogs thanks to him. I want to have a big and cleaver dog like him in my future. (215/10,300)

Writing Essay ② My Favorite Country is Russia!!

My favorite country is Russia! I think it is very attractive country. In fact, I didn’t know anything about Russia until I took Russian class as the second language that we have to choose when we enter this university. I didn’t expect the class, but after a few classes I had interested in the country. Then I’ll tell you the fascination of Russia.
First, I’ll tell you a grounding in Russia. As you know, the capital is Moscow and the area of this country is the biggest in the world. The area is 17,100,000 superficial kilometers! It’s forty-eight times as large as Japan, but the density of population is eight persons per one superficial kilometer. The number is a forty-two compared with Japan. The population is about 142,000,000 and more than 100 kinds of nations live there. The time difference between Japan and Russia is seven hours but between the end of East and West, time is different about ten hours even within the country.
Next, I'll introduce about sightseeing. There are a lot of beautiful and valuable places to visit in Russia. I recommend you to visit Kremlin and Red Square, Moscow. The square is important place for Russian. In1493, the then lard IvanⅢ mede people to maintain front of his castle and mede the square. It's present Kremlin and Red Square. From the square,
you can see beautiful shrine called Saint Basil's Cathedral. It's colorful and I think it is very interesting to see. In addition, there are remain of Lenin. He is a great plitican for the Soviet Union. If you sidit him, it will be very presious experience for you. I also recommend you to visit Herumitage Museum in Sankt-Peterburg. It's a national museum which built by Ekaterina Ⅱ in 1764. She made for her own and collected many trasures but we can see them now. Both of them what I introduced are World Heritage Site so please visit them if you have a chance to go to Russia.
Finally, I'll tell you about food in Russia. Russian dishes are not so famous in Japan, but there are many good dishes in the country. One of them is borshch. When you were Junior high school, it served for school lunch but it's not real borshch! That was just tomato soup. To cook borshch, people use beet and many kinds of meet and vegetables. Before eating it, Russian put sour into borshch. I've ever eaten it because it is difficult to eat it in Japan, but it looks delicious. I also recommend you to eat piroshki. It is sold a lot in Japan, but it's also counterfeit. It made for Japanese and it's just Chinese manju. In Japan, many piroshki are fried but most of them are always baked in Russia. I like Japanese piroshki but I really want to eat real piroshki in Russia.
As you can see, Russia is very interesting country to visit. In addition, it is next door to us. I hope that you became interested in the country. (501/10,040)

Achievement Points ★Disagreement★

　　Our group discussed Yoshiko's group. Their idea is to build mini mall which contains drug store, cell phone shop, clothes shops in KGU. I disagree with their opinion because of three reasons.
First, if there is a mini mall in this university, students will skip classes. I think many students will tend to visit the mini mall often and they will enjoy shopping even during classes. I think students have to treat their classes the most so mini mall is bad for them.
Second, mini mall will be the reason of spending students' money. Such shop in campus, students can visit it any time so they will buy something unnecessary and wast their money, I think. In addition, there are ATMs in his university so they can draw money to shop in the mini mall and they will spend much money. I think students should save their money for their future so spending much money is bad.
Last reason is that KGU is near downtown. Students can get to downtown about 10 minutes by bicycle.As you know, there are some drug stores, cell phone shops and many clothes shops and they are very enjoyable to visit.
For three reasons, KGU don't need mini mall. (200/8647)

Achievement Points ☆Our Group's Opinion☆

　Our group member is Arisa, Mayu and me. We think KGU students need more locker rooms, more vending machines and under pass.
KGU has some lockers in gym now, but they are not enough for the number of students. We think it's convenient to put text books and note books into lockers when we have a drinking party or go to shopping to downtown. In our high school days, we have our class rooms and we have own lockers. In university, students have to carry all baggage anytime. It's very irritated to carry all of them. We think everyone don't want to carry heavy baggage in downtown so KGU students need many lockers.
Our second idea is about vending machines. First, we think students need more vending mi chines.KGU has enough number of vending machine but the location is not good. We think students need vending machines in building 11 and 4. If we have a class in building 11 and the next class is in building 4, we have to hurry to other buildings to buy a drink because the rest time is only 10 minutes. Second, we think KGU should increase kinds of drink and foods. Especially we need more food's vending machines for example yakionigiri, takoyaki, french fries and oden. School restaurant and Bakery are always crowded and we have to wait to buy some foods so it is convenient we have such vending machines.
Our third idea is to build under pass. Under pass is the road which connect each buildings. We think it's convenient in rainy day. Students have many baggage so it is difficult to hold their umbrella. If KGU has under pass, they don't need to hold umbrella. In addition, we think it's very convenient if students have a moving side walk! It is especially needed by people using wheelchair, we think. Other students also can move faster to other buildings!
That is our idea improve KGU! (320/8447)

Get Bus Tickets!!

Do you know Green Campus shops had been given a project which is giving presents for KGU students? I think you were given a yellow green application paper when you shopped in campus. A quiz is written the paper and you write an answer then put in it to the box. Each shops in KGU campus like Maruzen, Syashin no Hayama, Nishitetsu travel salon and other shops prepared good presents☆ Green campus staffs do drawing the application paper. If you are lucky, you get a present; )

I applied for Nishitetsu's present. It is two round high way bus tickets to Fukuoka!!!!!YY

I was really exited when I found my name which written a paper on kuiziban. I've been wanted go to Fukuoka since before so I'm very happyY

I'm puzzling when I use them. I want to use it usefully. (138/8127)

A Little Red Hen

A little red hen lived on a farm with a dog, a cat, and a goose. One day, she found some grains of wheat and she decided to grow them. Then she asked "Who will help me to plant the wheat?" but the three said "No I won't!" so she was angry and she planted them by herself. She weeded, watered and watched the wheat. It grew favorably but no one helped her. Finally she cut it and made a big bread!! Then three animals ran to the bread and tried to eat it!!! What do you think the little red said to them? (105/7989)

Mizutaki

Yesterday, I ate dinner at my house. I always don't eat dinner so it was a little rare. My mother asked me when I will eat dinner at home in this week and I answered "Thursday!". Then she cooked Mizutaki for me.

Do you know Muzutaki? It's a kind of nabe. We put mizuna, tofu, hakusai, chiken and dango made by fish into a nabe. After boiling about 10 minutes, they are ready to eat! We soak them in ponzu. Mizutaki is very good dish in winter and I like it very much!

After eating, my mother shouted "I forgot to put oyster into the nabe!!" So we ate nabe again. It was funny. (113/7884)

YUKI festival!

Last Sunday, I had a "YUKI festival" with my friends Mai and Misa! It's  going  karaoke and sing only YUKI' song. All of us like YUKI who is a Japanese singer. She was a vocal of Judy and Mary but she is a solo singer now. She is almost 38 years old but I can't believe it because she is very cute!!

We went to Karaoke kan in downtown and we had sang YUKI's song for 3 hours. She released a lot of songs so we could enjoy without boring. After that, we took Purikura. It was fun and we promised to have next "YUKI festival". (107/7771)

Hello. My favorite movie is Handsome suit. The main actors are Shosuke Tanihara, Muga Tsukaji, Keiko Kitagawa. They are famous actors in Japan. 

The hero of this story is Takuro Oki played the roll by Tsukaji. Takuro runs a restaurant "kokoroya" and he is very good at cooking but he is a ugly and fat so he has ever associated with any woman. One day a new part timer joined kokoroya. She is very beautiful and Takuro felt in love with her. He told that to her but he turned down.

A few days later he went to a men's wear shop and gets a handsome suit. The suit can make anybody handsome! Takuro gets good looks by waring it. He flourishes as super model named An-nin Hikariyama. He got confidence in his looks and he said "I love you" to Hiroko again, but he turned down even his looks became very good.

Please check this movie and think which is important people's looks or heart. (164/7658)

tennis club

Last Wednesday, I have a club activity. I went to tennis club which is a restaurant in downtown. The drinking party  was the first held one that our seniors retired the club. The dishes were very very good and everyone ate that so fast. We ate salad, steak, spaghetti, chicken and so on. I drunk pineapple chu-hai and umeshu but they were sot good. I thought tennis club's staff are treat their dishes than drinks.  I worried that whether first period students can enjoy it or not but they looked very happy during the party. I also enjoyed it.
