Octapodi
A couple of octopus is in this story. At the beggining, girl octopus is taken out from an aquarium by man. Boy octopus follows them to resucue her, jumps into a man's car and disrupt him from driving smoothly. Eventually they could escape from him, however the new enemy, a bird, coming up. That means thier new adventure begins.
What are 3 main characters?
Boy octopus, girl octopus and a man
What do they want to do each other?
A men probably tries to carry octopus to somewhere like restaurant. On the other hand, octopuses are trying to escape from him to be free.
Ending and next?
At the end of this video, thier next enemy showed up. Boy octopus was taken away by a bird, then girl octopus decide to try to help him from being eaten by this bird. I expect that their long jorney to their ocean has started like Finding Nimo!
Part time job
I do two part time jobs right now,one is Uakitori restaurant the other one is fast food restaurant call Guzman y Gomez(GYG)
I started working at GYG about one year ago, then I often work 3 times a week right now. GYG is the Mexican food restaurant like Taco Bell and it's on the second floor of Laforlet Harajuku. The working environment is really good, the people who is working with is very kind and my description of job is very easy to do!
Yakitori restaurant locates on nearby Aoyama Gakuin, so I often go there after my classes at school. It's kind of hard job because sometimes well-known politicians or actors come to have dinner. I just started working there one month ago, I think I have to adjust the atmosphere at the restaurant.
Anyways, I want to go abroad at my winter vacation, so I have to work hard to save money!!
My friend from Osaka
Trip to Hakkaido
First day, we went Otaru where was about 30 minutes from Sapporo by ladical train. Otaru is famous by its historically townscape. It is also called that the town of a museum. We ate many Sashimi and Sushi for both of lunch and dinner, it was delicious. Glassework is special product of Otaru, so there is a lot of beautiful glasses and plates made from Glasses. I bought an beautiful color glass and plate. We rode on an evening cruise on Otaru canal. The canal has many lamp on both side, and the atmosphere was so quiet. We enjoyed Otaru so much.
Next day, we went to Asahiyama Zoo where is famous for its unique exhibition of animals. I was surprised for closeness to animals, so happy to watch so many cute animals. The weather and climate was also great. After that we went Tomita's Flower Park. There were large field of flowers, the smell was good.
Last day, we enjoyed a stay at Sapporo. I bought many suvenior, especially I really liked 'snuffle's cheese cake.' It is so delicious, if you havn't ate, you should tried it too.

Oktapodi
The couple octopus were together at first and one of them got taken away by human and the octopus that was left went after to take its partner back and they had so many trouble fighting with the human who took away the other octopus.
Character
Female octopus, male octopus and human
The problem
The couple octopus dont want to be separated from eachother so they fight for their relationship against the human that took one of them away. But the human didnt give up to be escaped by the octopus because his job is to bring the octopus somewhere.
What do they want?
The octopuses want freedom and the human wont let them go.
Ending and the next
When the 2 octopuses thought they succeeded on their escape, one of them got taken away by a bird suddenly and the one that was left tried to throw its own body to get to where the bird is flying.
For me, the next thing that happened was after the 2 octopuses got away from the bird and while they fell from above the ocean, there was a shark waiting for them to swallow both of them.

We watched the movie last class.
It's "oktapodi". The characters in the movie were, orange octopus; he was male, pink octopus; she mad female, and one men.
One day, two octopus got along each other in the water tank. However one man took pink octopus from there. So orange octopus tried to help her and started fight between them. They outran from him. But next, the white bird took orange octopus and flow away.
In my opinion, next will be that pink octopus can help him and they go to far away to do that. So they will get along ever and live in the sea happily.

What happened: Orange octopus struggles with rescuing the pink octopus from a guy.
Character: The orange male octopus, the pink female octopus, a guy
What they want: the octopuses want freedom. the guy wants to cook the octopus.
Problem: The octopuses are too weak to resist the guy.

I also like skiing. I go to ski every winter with my family. I often go to Naeba( Niigata), GALA(Niigata), Tomamu(Hokkaido) and so on. But I can't do snowboard.
The sports I'm interested in now is rafting. It seems really thrilling, but I'm sure it must be so fun.
Just tell me If you know any good sports!!

Summer vacation
This summer I went to Vancouver. It was my first time to leave Japan. Though the duration was too short to develop my English, it was really good experience!
I came to want to visit any other countries through this experience.
I'd like to visit many countries rather than stay a country long time.
In short, the trip to Vancouver effected me a lot.
cooking
Yusuke Habu Oktapodi (assignment no.1)
The fish department man took the pink octopus in his truck but the orange octopus wanted to save the pink octopus so she won't die. Eventually the orange octopus went into the truck and he fought with the fish department man and as a result, the orange octopus won the battle. After this, they thought they'll be safe but the bird took the orange octopus so the pink octopus started to try to save the orange octopus.
Characters?
The orange octopus (probably male), the pink octopus (probably female), the fish department man and
the bird.
What do the characters want?( Want?)
1. orange octopus: He want to save the pink octopus and love her.
2. pink octopus: She wanted to get out of the fish department man's truck.
3. the fish department man: Probably he wanted the pink octopus to be the people's food.
4. bird: Wanted to eat the orange octopus for food.
What is the problem? (What stops them?)
1. orange octopus: Difficult to fight back with the fish department man because he is strong.
2. pink octopus:Difficult to escape because he is a strong person.
3. the fish department man: Difficult to keep the pink octopus in the truck because the orange octopus
is fighting.
4. bird: No problem. (If there is, that is when the pink octopus successfully flys to get the orange
octopus from the bird.)
Ending? Next?
The pink octopus successfuly flys to get the orange octopus from the bird and they go back to the ocean and love each other. A very happy ending.
Oktapodi
Characters- A couple and a man and a gull.
Want- The male want to help the female out of hand of the man. On the other, the man want to take the female to a market as soon as possible.
Problem/Ending/Next- The problem is that for the male octopus, the opponent is strong and also, for the man, the opponent is strong. After a harsh battle, the male was able to rescue the female from the man. But later on, the male was caught by a gull soon next time. It is likely that the female will help out the male vice versa and a former life will return.
Oktapodi
What happens: Orange and pink octopuses were living together peacefully, but one day the man took the pink one out in order to ship.
Orange octopus wanted to get the pink one back, and the man wanted to accomplish shipping it
Conflict: Orange octopus and pink octopus versus the man
Ending: Orange octopus successfully rescued pink octopus from the man's car, but as the result, a sea mew held orange octopus and flew. So pink octopus became braver than orange octopus in order to rescue it
I think it was a great fight of life and death. However, It aroused mixed feeling in me because human-beings always have absolute advantages in the real world.

Skrillex
After an hour searching, we finally met him in shibuya. He was kind and nice,and I was totally nervous. I still can't believe that I met him. Video that I filmed with him is on my instagram.
oktapodi
The pink octopus was taken by a man, so the orange octopus chased after the man to get her back.
After an intense battle, the octopuses beat the man. However, a sea gull took the orange octopus at the end, and then it was pink ocopus' turn to run after the orange octopus.
The pink octopus will probably help the orange octopus immediately and they will live happily ever after:)
What the octopuses want is to stay together and the man wants to catch the pink ocopus so badly.

Hello
I want to talk about myself just little bit. I was born in a town in Hchiouji Tokyo, and I'm still living in there with my family. I'm an only child, and I have my father and mother.
Hachioji is famous for Hachiouji ramen which has a tasty soy souce soop and topping is a chopped onion. It sounds simple but actually it's very tasty. If you come to Hachiouji, why you don't try this ramen! I recomend the ramen shop, that name is "Ichi". Let's try!
My hobby is going to Karaoke and reading books like noveles and mangas.
I like music such as American or the UK rock, and also J-pop. Recently my favourit group is Pentatonix which is amazing acapera band. If you are interested in it, plese listen!
Nice to meet you!

Hello
I'm late for contributing comments, so today I'll talk about myself.
Although I'm not good at exchanging on the net, I'll do my best.
My hobby is reading novels and playing Judo. I like to be alone, so I always read mystery novels when I have classes. You can guess that I have few friends. :-p
My favorite novelists are Kotaro Isaka, Natsuo Kirino, Tokuro Nukui and Syusuke Michio. I like not only reading books but creating cray arts. If you search "Michio Syusuke key holder" in Japanese on the Internet, you can easily find my cray arts.
And on every Tuesdays, I train Judo in a training hole in Ogikubo. My friends often treat me as a gentle person, but in fact I like combative sports and I'm hot-blooded. However, please don't worry about my provoking a fight :-D Well, I'm sleepy, see you later.
Oktapodi
-character: Orange octopus, maybe male. Pink octopus, mybe female. A man.
-want: Orange octopus wanted to get her back. Pink octopus wanted to escape from the car. A man wanted to take her somewhere.
-problem: It was too hard for orange to chase the car outside the water.
-ending: Orange octopus ws taken by a gull, and pink octopus followed the gull.
-next: They managed to escape, and fell into the sea. However they would be aimed by something living in the sea again. I think the next is going to be like that.

octapodi (HW)
Sleepover
Describing animation of IE3 home work
There were three main characters. First is the orange male octopus, second is the pink female octopus and the third is the driver to take the female octopus.
The driver want to carry octopuses because he want to make them hood. In opposit, the couple of octopuses want to try escape because they don't want to be a dish and just want to live safely.
This story's confrict was happened between the people and octopus. It was described as chasing of them. People want to eat octopuses and octopuses don't want to be eaten.
In the end of the story, the male octopus could save the female octopus. The driver and his car was went down to a sea during the chasing accidently. That looked happy end but suddenly, one bird caught the male octopus to eat him. In this turn, the female octopus tried to save him from the bird, and the story was end. I expect if the story continues, they are repeating the same situation that another predeters come to try eating them but the couple save eachother again and again on the earth. Finaly they will go to the moon to escape from the creature of an other planet and after escaping, they start to live on the moon, and they have family. Their progeny will evolve on the moon, and they are coming to the earth to eat creatures on there.
How do you do?
About summer vacation
My part-time job
I'm a waitress of a Japanese dining at Shibuya Hikarie. Our restraunt have many delicious food and many kinds of Japanese Sake. It is a Japanese restraunt, but we only have tables and chairs, and BGM is always Jazz. So the atmosphere is casual, but almost all guest is adult. Many foreigners visit us, also. Sometimes I feel difficult to do good service for them, but it is fun. Every staffs are kind, so I could have continue this job almost 2 years.
Rainy Day☔️
It's heavy rain out side today. Such bad wether totally makes me feel like doing nothing at all!! But there are some favorite ways to survive these bad weather days.
One is watching movies at home. I would recommend you to chose serial drama on rainy day because you have nothing to do and would have much free time. It's a good chance to complete your favorite drama in a day! I've done it before, it was little bit tired though, I do not regret that because I was really satisfied when I finished all episodes.
Another way is go wall-ball. I play lacrosse in college team, and l often do wall-ball. It doesn't matter how bad the weather is because my wall has its roof so that I can do wall-ball in comfortable environment.
These are my favorite ways to spend rainy days! I recommend the way I wrote at first for you!
dinner
I will have a dinner with my senior tonight. I'm a little bit tired but I can't wait. See you later.
Clothes
Shake Shack
I work at there three times a week since June. The members in Shake Shack are so kind and nice, so I really enjoy my part time job time.
Last day,our new event "Shacktober Fest" started. We sell some limited item.
If you have a time, please visit Shake Shack!!
Suicide squad
I originally like MARVEL. Because they are so cool and very fun. So if there are somebody who like them, let's talk about them.
And there is only one that I want to say by watching `Suicide squad`. It is `Harley Quinn is sooooooooooo cute.` I want you to watch her very much.
Nice to meet you
The first contribution
Actually, I was looking forward to this class blog because this is the first time I was told to write
a blog in a class. Moreover, I have done it in Japanese several times, but never done it in English.
So, I wanted to try to do it! I'll do my best to look for many topics so that I can contribute. See you
tomorrow.
Practice dance
I practiced dance from midnight to morning. After I came back home in the morning, I did my homework and practiced again. So i'm tired now but it was so enjoyable. Good night.
My summer vacation
I went to Oxford in this summer.
I joined the program to study abroad in AGU, I had stayed for a month.
It's really fun for me!
Firstly, there were a lot of beautiful building and I could feel deep history in the city.
I had the English class Monday to Friday and I was in free time on weekends. In my class, I studied about British history, customs, and so on. It was most interesting for me to study about the difference between US and UK. In my free time, I enjoyed the small trip example of London.
However, the meal was terrible for me. So I really missed Japanese food during staying there.
I couldn't forget this summer vacation. I hope that my English skill was brushed up!
Movie day
It was mystery movie. I was very impressed the content of the movie. Acter and actress were good at expressing their feelings. I really like to this movie. I'd like to recommend!

Swedish film festival
my friends
Hello
I've been living in Tokyo all up until now and I feel really comfortable to live at this city. I have some reasons that I love this city, the biggest thing is that Tokyo has some various faces. There are some traditional places like Meiji-Jingu, Asakusa, and Tsukiji-Market. On the other hand, there are lots of places to chill out like shopping malls, movie theaters, coffee shops... and so on!
You've probably got to understand how I love this city, I also have my future plan to move to some different countries. I haven't decided where to live or what to do for living yet, I do want to do my job that I can have much opportunities to visit various places.
So, what I have to do for my future is improving my language skill at this university.
my dog
She is already 10 years old, so she moved more slowly than before and her hair of chin changed to white. Though her power is still strong because she is a kind of large dogs. During walking, it began to rain,so we went home earlier than we had thought. But it was very fun. I hope that it will be sunny next time.
Yesterday
Part time job
I work at Excelsior Caffe in Takadanobaba. I have been working there since June. Because there are so many things I have to remember, I thought I will never manage to do the work by myself at first. However, I'm finally getting used to it!
