Queen of crime?

God I still can't get over how boring that book was

so I went to the VR park today. went on this ride where I have to get a cat sitting on this plank hanging off from a 200m tall building(WHY).

I was sure I was going to do just fine until I put the goggles on but it is so realistic and so terrifying!

Thought of my will, will no.1: don't get my funeral in a church, don't want that Jesus dude to be around me while Im about to sleep cause he doesn't seem to go away for 2000 years apparently 

I have to get my back teeth pulled out soon, but since they're facing a weird direction I have to get it done surgically.

Apparently, it's going to be swollen for about 2 weeks...
don't you think that sucks?

Anyways, wish me luck...

I find Instagram amazing

You know I began using Instagram last week, right? While touching the screen, I learned I could ‘research’ the person whom I’d like to follow. One day, I thought of my bestie in kindergarten. I had moved before it’s graduation, so I typed her name and tapped ‘request’ with little hope because I thought she must have forgotten me. But I was betrayed in a good sense and she became my follower. Both got really surprised at being able to get in touch with each other for the first time in a decade. Since then, we chat on Instagram every single day. Risa

My book is A Walk to Remember by Nichols Sparks. It is about a teen love story.
It is very lovely but a  little surprising. He is a very famous writer and I hope many of the students in this class will read his books including mine!

They go through difficulties in love, friendships, and family relationships.

This book is really a traditional love story where one tells the other not to fall in love with him/her but falls in love and live happily ever after. However, in this book, something surprising gets revealed near the end. It is very surprising but touching. It makes you think about your relationships.

      I chose The Adventure of Huckleberry Finn as my first book report. In this tale, Huckleberry and his friends go down stream by their raft. The author Mark Twain is famous for his novel The Adventure of Tom Sawyer in the 19 century. He is one of the greatest writers in America, so I think his books are worth reading.

      If I were him, I would rather stay with a violent father than set off on such a risky adventure which I may die. Even though I felt I wanted to escape, I would accept my circumstance and live under the father’s stress. I really admire him of a brave boy.

I just finnish my first Book Report!
About reference  when I want to add japanese books, should I change the title (written in Romaji) in to Itaric? Anybody knows the answer, tell and help meee🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

Good morning!
I totally forgot to post a blog this week....I’m on my way to school right now. See u then:)))))

In her shoes

Do you have a sister?
By reading this book I thought about this question.

This book is about two sister that characteristics are different (one is super smart but not beautiful, and the other is not smart at all but has a beautiful out look) and used to fight each other, but in one point they reconciled and become very close to each other.


I personally have an three year older sister and we are totally close each other and we’ve never fight against each other. So by reading this book made me think that there might be a family that has the same circumstances like the sisters in the book. I want to tell whoever isn’t in a good roll with your siblings time and some courage would definitely change the situation you face on.

I’ll be happy to know if you have any sisters or brother and Also I wanna know if you and your siblings are  in a good relationships.

trip

I went to Yamanakako last weekend and played tennis all day long.
It was almost 7 years since I used to learn tennis, so I really sucked at playing it.lol
My circle members are nice an I really had fun going there.

flowers for algernon

I finally came home from the club activity, so I will finish up on my book report from now......
This story was about Charlie Gordon who had a low IQ getting the chance to take the experimental surgery that may increase one's intelligence. It was already tested successfully on a lab mouse Algernon.  Charlie's intelligence expanded after the surgery until Algernon suddenly deteriorates.

It was a nice story, I really liked how the story moves. I wish I had more time to finish it with more details.

Confessions of a shopaholic

I don’t usually read romantic novels. Maybe, this was the first time I read it.

I like mystery and science fiction novels than romantic ones, because I can see clearly that a pretty girl will be together with a handsome guy in the end in the romantic novels 😡

Well, this novel became a Disney movie which has a little different story from the book.

If you like romantic novels or a Disney movie, please try this book!

The Notebook

I've never read such a good book!! It is a wonderful love story that I am sure I will never forget. I've just finished watching the movie now, and I got surprised how different it is from the book. it is my first time reading a book that turned into a movie, because I always prefer watching movies than reading, but now I realized how important it is to read the original story. I could feel totally different emotions by reading this book, so I'm upset that the movie doesn't show every wonderful moment.

Finally finished reading the book 

Not impressed 

Now I have to write about it.... 

I live on hate so it shouldn't be hard<3

Pygmalion

Before I got started to work on book report, I was not happy so much. It seemed taking so much time and making me stressed. Also it was not a novel but a play which I am not accustomed to. However, I made it with enjoying. It was very fun to research about it even I cut information to put in the paper. Since I am interested in sociolinguistics, I think I chose a book very well. I would like to give myself applause! yay!

Thank you!!!

Last week, I enjoyed delicious tapioca drink with some of the classmates in IE. I had a great time talking and laughing with them. I wanna hang out with you again...

The Secret Garden

I'm writing about "The Secret Garden" in my book report. I'm going to watch its musical next month, but I wanted to watch it earlier so that I can write about it. However, I found the script & lyrics in the library in this university! I'm very happy to be a student in Aogaku.

Animal farm

I’m doing the book report about animal farm.  It is a short story,and easy to read. So I recommend you to read it! Also you can learn about Russian politics a little bit. The animation movie is on YouTube too!

Book Report

I am finishing up my book report! I rented the movie last week, and I liked the movie better than book so I've already seen it for three times:)

tradition sometimes make me unhappy

Yesterday I had to work in a tea ceremony party held at my grandmother's house.
We have these parties several times every year because my family is a descendant of Sen-no-Rikyu and is a close relative of the current "Iemoto" of the Sen family.
I like how many guests visit our house and serving them tea in a beautiful kimono, but what made me unhappy is that I really wanted to work on my book report yesterday.

One more thing making me unhappy is how my mom and my grandmother keep on telling me I have to study tea ceremony more. I know it's a nice thing to have knowledge about and I know I shouldn't stop the tradition, but I still cannot have enough interests in it for starting taking lessons.
If I have time to take tea lessons, I want to use it for doing part-time job or taking skating lessons...

Nice way to spend a Saturday

On Saturday I went to see a ballet with my mom.
We saw a story called "Coppelia" performed by K-Ballet Company. Coppelia is not so famous like the Nutcracker or Swan Lake, but it's a cute story and I enjoyed it.

After that we went to a tapioca shop which opened in Shibuya this month. It was really good and that made my nice relaxing Saturday even better!

First quiz for American Literature tomorrow

I’ll take my first quiz for American Literature tomorrow 😭
I’m really nervous if I can get any scores.
I’ll do my best!

busy day

Today I worked for abut 9hours... It was very busy and weren't enough staff so it was an exhausting day indeed. I am glad I finished my book report and started my history report yesterday.

sleep sleep sleep

Recently I take a nap almost everyday but sleep at night properly. I think I spend time for sleeping the most. However, it is clear that I need more time to focus on study.........

volunteer

Yesterday I met some friends from high school, and also my homeroom teacher.
I did a volunteer, and taught English to the elementary kids! We had some kind of a workshop. The children were so active and cute.

Yesterday

Yesterday, I went to Costco. The last time I went there was quite a long time ago, so I had a great time shopping.

I finally started Instagram two days ago. I'm trying to get accustomed to it, but I'm still begging for somebody's help when I use it. I found it very exciting since many of Aogaku students have their accounts compared with Facebook that I've been using for two years. Instagram makes me take pictures frequently, so I'm looking forward to getting a better photo taking skill by using it. Risa

Yesterday, I met friends from high school. We went to meat bar and had a tons of meat.
After that, I ate kebab and ice cream and crapes. Then,we took purikura twice.
It was so fun!!! Meeting with old friends are really good. I want to see them again near time.

I'll try my best.

The lost thing

Summary

The boy finds an unknown creature which looks lonely, and “lost” at the beach. He plays with the lost thing and took it home. His parents both didn’t welcome it, and no one in the society seemed to care about the lost thing. He took it to some kind of a center, and met a weird creature telling them a place where he should take the lost thing to.

The lost thing found the place to be, and went off to live in the atmosphere that adapts it.

Theme
People living in the busy society tend to miss thing that should not be forgotten in your life. I personally thought that the lost thing was something to represent memories and happiness. People living in the current society tend to forget these precious things because we get too focused on business, and how others evaluate us. Because many things are more restricted, people tend to forget what the most important factor in order to live fun.

Yesterday, I went to Tokyo Gakugei university for the joint practice with Aogaku’s lacrosse team. Since I had a chance to go to Kokubunzi station, my friend and I went to Eggg café to eat very very super soft and delicious pancakes. We tried cream brulee and the standard one. Both of them were so good. If you have a chance to go near Kokubunzi station, I really recommend you to go Eggg café!!

too much ramen

I've been eating too much ramen since I came to Tokyo, because it's cheap. I buy two packs of six noodles, so on average, I eat at least 12 noodles in a month. That doesn't sound healthy.

Coworker

I saw my favorite coworker for the first time in 2 weeks yesterday! He comes in every Sunday and works as a chef.

The Lost Thing

Summary

     As the main character Shaun, a fan of collecting bottle caps, was walking down the beach he meets this strange living object which is referred as the “Lost Thing” throughout the whole video. Shaun asks Pete for an explanation of this creature but ends with no luck, which leads Shaun in going to this huge agency that supposedly takes care of Lost Things. However, he meets a creature that tells him that if he cares about the “thing”, he should not leave it there since that warehouse was just a place where these “Lost Things” were hidden and forgotten about. With the arrowed card he received, he finally finds a utopian land that exists for all the Lost Things.

Setting

     Near future in a dystopian country (maybe Australia?)

Conflict

     Shaun vs Society à Although Shaun cares for the “thing”, nobody else seems to really care for it. Everybody just walks past and seems as if people do not want to have anything with it. Shaun realizes what society really is since the uncategorized/complicated are pushed back in the shadows.

     Lost Things vs Society

     Shaun vs Himself

Climax

     When the door for the utopian “lost things” land opens.

Symbol

     The dark colored buildings à no light/hope in the lives of the people

     People wearing similar clothes à difference and creativity is not seen appropriate (communist?)

     The door which leads to the place where lost things belong à you would never know the existence of such a place unless you were looking for it. An achievement and sense of success for the ones who have tried.

Irony

     The Lost Thing is seen as a piece of trash but at the same time it is creating and making waste. The pipes connected onto the body gives out smoke and pollutes the air.

     Towards the end of this short movie, there is one “thing” that chose to stay in this society. Unlike the other “things”, it carries a mop and bucket and cleans the waste that this industrial society is creating. This “thing” seems to be the only one that has a purpose in existing in society, however, it has a very upsetting and dark aura.

Theme

     Even if we do not realize in our daily lives, there are many things that do not fit in well with society and have trouble finding their own positions. We should not ignore those who are different but instead help them find their own place.

I've always had my eyes on the Nike Air Max 97s.....
