Halloween

I watched news about traffic regulation in Shibuya this morning because too many cosplaying people will be coming. I don't want to be involved with crowded train, so I'm planning to go home quickly.

school festival

From October 28th to 30th, school festival was held at our university. Our circle,Shanti Shanti, sold Harumaki which tasted curry and banana. I was surprised that there were many people at main street. It was hard to prepare the store, but it was fun!!

the them of "the lost thing"

My opinion of the theme of "the lost thing" is the importance of cherishing character. The object which found by a man is a symbol of character. Everything in their city is looks same.  Eventually, he and the machine(?) discovered colorful, bright, and vibrant world.  These days, people is too busy to think about what we are. This movie alerts the dangerousness of the life like ours. The colorful world was so attractive to us and the man. Because the city in this video is not interesting. We are all finding our character.

One of my favorite quotes

"The struggle you are facing is a test to see if you are truly committed to the life you say you want."
Im having a very painful lower backache and despite of that, I passed the driving test at the driving school so my effort was very worth it though I was walking like an old person😭

Udon

Actually, I remembered I did have something special today. During the time between classes, I went to eat curry udon(noodles) with my friend in Aoyama. We've been wanting to go there, so this is really a special day:)  It was very tasty and it was nothing like the curry udon I have eaten before.

Friends

Since I did not have anything special today, I will talk about two of my friends from primary school. These days, I have been going out for dinner with them once a week! We still have a lot of plans coming up, such as to go to Disney land! I never thought we will become so close after entering Uni, but I'm so glad that I have friends like them. We can talk about our memories from primary school and we can even talk about serious topics like about life:) I'm sure that they will be my life time friends!

Yusuke Habu: Board games on roll at schools, workplaces

Good evening, everyone.
I think it is a good idea to understand people's abilities through games because I believe through games, we can look personalities and specialties which we can only know through games, we can see something different from conversation.

Disaster!!!


Yesterday was one of the worst day I've ever had.

I usually wake up at 4:30 in order to do Lacrosse practice. But yesterday, when I woke up and looked at my iPhone, the display showed 5:30!!!! I was terribly confused and couldn't believe what I've done at the moment. Besides, my phone wasn't stop ringing because my teammates made phone call to wake me up. That sound made me feel uncomfortable and more confusing. Anyway I had to catch my taxi cab to arrive our lacrosse ground on time, so I run down my house's stairs to go. The accident was happened at that moment. I fall over half way though to ground floor and twisted my left ankle.

My ankle requires 2~3 weeks for recovery, so I have to stop playing lacrosse at that term. I learned from this experience that how dangerous running down the stairs is. That is terrible!!!!

The three days will be just relaxing days for me.

School Festival

 I visited my graduated junior and high school on Sunday. Because it was school festival.
I haven't visisited my school since I graduated at the end of March, so I felt nostalgic.
It was really good to see my old friends and teachers!! Chatting with them brought me  back memories.
Of course I enjoy university life, but I really wanna back to those days.

October 22nd

October 22nd is my birthday!! A lot of people celebrated my birthday, including my friends concerned until now and my seniors and friends of my circle and the day became a wonderful day!!!
I'm still waiting for comments "Happy birthday!!!!"  haha

WORLD PRESS PHOTO 16

Yesterday, I went to Tokyo photograohic art museum and saw the exhibition titled "WORLD PRESS PHOTO 16". I was really impressed by some photos but especially, the photos of Ukrainian girl and ruins there was wonderful. These were taken by Japanese photographer and he used the film abandoned several decades ago at radioactive contamination area in Chernobyl, Ukraine. These photos clearly reminded me of Fukushima nuclear disaster. The girl on the photo actually had inherent disabilities caused by her mother being exposed to radioactivity. Maybe in the near future, we will face the same problem as this country did.

Yusuke Habu: news article 77% of online news readers use cell phones

Good evening, everyone.

Through this article, I thought there are many people who consider cell phone as a tool for instant work like checking informations you want, the simple things. At the same time, I thought there are many people who consider computer as a tool for modern heavy work like making reports or documents. This means work when you sit down on a chair for a long time.
I realized the gap between 10 years ago and now.

favorite movie of all time


I really like watching movie in both ways, watching at a theature and DVD at home. Actions, love stories, doramas, horrors,,, I watch every kinds of movies.

My favorite movie is ''Green Mile''. Tom Hanks acts the main person who works at the prison for criminals on death row. He is a prison officer at that prison, and met one unnatural man who names John Coffey. He accused of child murder though, he has a magical gift from god. The power is to
bring somebody or something back to life!

The story is really complicated though, I can't watch this movie without crying. If you don't know this movie or haven't watched before, I really really recommend to you. It may makes you think about your life deeply.

Yusuke Habu: news article Driveless car tested on Britain's streets for 1st time

Good evening, everyone.
Today I would like to talk about driverless cars. In my opinion, for the technology perspective, I agree with this because I think this can change the whole technology. Our lives will be convenient but for the passenger, in a driving perspective, I don't fully agree with this because this can cause many car accidents than ever before. The reason why I say this is because machines cannot adjust their driving in irregular situaitons or the risk is too high. That is because one program miss can cause a lot of accidents world wide. I hope our future will be safe and convenient.

After cutting, my hed became light and feel refreshment.
But actually I like long hair, because when I'm short hair, I feel some kind of uncomfortableness.

So I hope my hair become long as soon as possible! But I Don't want to pay money so much on going to hairdresser. That is defficult problem, isn't it.

Remembering a lot of tasks is very hard,but I feel enjoyable and fulfilling when the customers are satisfied.   I will continue this job until graduation.

I heard the happy news yesterday that Miu won the world cup of table tennis.
She played againt Miwa who is the doubles pair of her at quarter finals. She  lost the previous game to her, so many people focus on this game. She won the game one by one and finally she won the championship! She also made a record as the youngest winner.
I really moved her win, because she made an insanely effort to compete other player.
I hope I could see her play in Tokyo Olympic game.

An Exhibition of Dalí's paintings

Today, I visited an exhibition of Dalí's paintings in the national art center, Tokyo with my friend. It is closed on Tuesdays usually, but only universities' students could enter for free today.

The art center is close to AGU, so I recommend you to go there! If you have already visited, please tell me your thoughts.

My winter vacation plan


It's getting colder these days. My winter vacation will come in 2 months and I have my vacation plan on it.

There are lots of things that I want to do during my winter vacation. Like go skiing, travel abroad, doing part-time job and so on. The reason why I'm planning to do such things right now is that I don't have my free time on summer and spring vacation! As I wrote at previous blog, I play lacrosse almost every day. That means I don't spent my time to do things that I want to except playing lacrosse. Winter vacation is the only one that I can do anything without thinking about lacrosse.

However, I do like playing lacrosse right now, so I think I'm going to do wall ball 3 or 4 times a week at my winter break. After the vacation, our new season will begin. I want my winter vacation to be fun!!

Two years ago, we just sold coffee, but this year, they sold so many coffee bean and a few of them went to East Timor. Today's event was the report of the visit to East Timor. I didn't imagine that this group become such a big team. I was impressed so much. Please remember the name "Blue Peco" at Aoyama Gakuin High School !

wanna improve Japanese

 My parents and close friends often tell me that my ability of Japanese is really poor.
When I speak, I often skip without saying "subject" which  is imprtant  when we have conversation.
I don't know why I skip it, but sometimes people can't understand what I want to say. So I need to make an effort to try to say  with "subject". If you realize that I skip "subject" when we do conversation, just tell me!!

Last Friday, September 30, I went to eat lunch with my friend. I don't have second class on Friday, and my friend is also. So, we wanted to eat Italian on the day. When we arrived at Italian restaurant, the restaurant didn't open yet, so we went to the other restaurant. However, it wasn't open yet again...We walked around Omotesando, but almost restaurants hadn't opened. We visited five restaurants, and finally, we could have lunch. It was not Italian, but we were so hungry because walking a lot. It's okay...
Anyway, my advice is that you should check time when you have lunch at second period of the day.

My lifestyle recently


Today I'm going to write about my club activity. I'm one of the members of girls lacrosse club and do our practice 5 times a week. Every practice starts at 6:45, so I have to get up at 4:30. It was so hard for me to do at first but now I'm getting used to this lifestyle. In weekends, we often have our practice game against other team or official match in some huge stadiums. As you could read this blog, I spend most of my time for doing club activity these days. Certainty I don't have enough time to hang out with my friends or do my hobbies though, I really enjoy this lifestyle so much! I have to go to my  practice right now! Bye!

Club activity

  I'am dancing now. It is only few days that is left till the school festival!!

BBQ

I cooked out with members of circle which I belong to.  It was the second time for me to cooked out  this year. We bought much meats, vegetables, sausages and noodles for Yakisoba, and also we drank. We talked and ate so much. It was so much fun!! However, I live in near the place where we cooked out, so I have to take some burdens to my room. It was hard, but it was nice day on the whole.

Dinner

Last night, I went to dinner with my friends from AGU. There were 8 of us and we are all from the same high school. Although I had never talked to some of them in high school, we all became so close after entering university. It is always fun to talk about the things back in high school. Because there was 1 person who couldn't make to this dinner last night, I hope we will have another one very soon!

Yusuke Habu: Everyday Exploration/ Private libraries catching on in cities across Japan by Daily Yomiuri

Hello, everyone. Today is IE class. I am looking forward to see everyone.

Today, I would like to talk about how I think about private libaries.

I think private libraies are great because we can read books freely in a different way from public libraries like school or the city library. We don't have to be quiet, we could eat or drink, anything, and I think we can get ideas from books when we are eating or drinking, relaxing because we can enjoy the book casually. I think it is a very good idea. I hope there will be more private libraries in the future.

Mermaid

Setting: A boy that likes fantasy lives in a country that fantasy is banned. Any time.

Conflict: Though the boy likes fantasy and he believe he saw mermaid, fantasy is banned in the country so the government try to stop him having fantasy.

Irony: He can't see the mermaid he caught after he come back home. But finally he could find a mermaid in sea and he followed the mermaid.

Climax: He escaped from government and came back home to find out the mermaid. Thought he could see the mermaid then, he went to the sea and his innocence was proved.

Theme: No one can control people's thought and rob their freedom of thoughts.
