I write a comment about Mermaid,which is an animation created by Osamu Tezuka.
The story is following as ;
A boy who likes fantasy lives a town. But in this town, people is prohibited from imagining freely. One day, the boy catch a fish. but, he can see it as a mermaid. He loves her. He spend playing with her. But, his parents can't see it as a mermaid. They think it is a fish. Then, he is caught by the police. They force him to admit that a fish is not a mermaid but a fish by torture. However, he doesn’t yield to the torture,and continues to insist the fish is the mermaid! Then, the police compel him to read many book and forget the mermaid. Finally, he forgets the mermaid. He decide to take the fish to the ocean. But, when he goes the ocean, he remember the mermaid!
In the end, I assume he also becomes a merman and lives with her forever.
In my opinion, the author tries to teach us the importance of free imagination.
Nowadays, we are prepossessed by a stereotype and a bias. In consequence, we can't imagine freely. So, he created this animation ,told us the situation and wanted us to understand the importance of free imagination.
This animation is simple and no voice. But, I am impressed by it.

relaxing day♪
Everyone seems to have spent a good holiday :)
Today, I went to Harajuku and I had my hair cut.
After that, I enjoyed shopping in Harajuku.
I got a cute short pants at a low price.
It was a good bargain!!!!!!!!!!!!
By the way, as I said, I like listening to music.
These days, I often listen "Kacho-Hu-getsu" by Remiolomen.
Do you know this song?
When we listen to this song, we can feel warmth of spring.
I recommend you to listen to it.
Then, I'll write comments~~~
yuri>> Your holiday looks like so interesting.
I rarely go to Yokohama, so I'd like to go there.
Where is the best place in Yokohama?
Can I enjoy shopping??

Good evening!
Today is hot and spring temperature, isn't it?
I went to Yokohama and to see Noge street performance with friends of mine :)
Before we went to street performance, we ate steamed meat bun, Annninn-flavored soft cream and so on, in a Chinatown.
After that, we saw the very interesting performances, such as juggle and very strange performance, and making animals and hats from ballon performance.

However, we enjoyed today!! I recommend you to see street performance!
See you next time.
Hello, everyone.
How are you?
I caught a cold on Friday, and I have a sore throat now :(
Maybe I couldn't stand wide range of temperature.
I wish you all are fine. Take care!
>Ranko
How was "Alice in Wonderland"?
I want to watch it, too!
>Ai
Guiding foreigners is very fun!
We go to Asakusa, then speak to foreigner.
"Excuse me, do you speak English? We're university students and studying English, but we don't have oppotunities to communicate with foreiner. If you don't mind, please communicate with us and let us guide you!"
If foreigner accept us, we start guiding! Of course, sometimes we are refused.
Communicating with various countries people is very interesting:)

Mermaid
l write about the animation I watched last Friday.
After I saw it, I thought things you think are self-evidence are not always true.
Everyone in this town was realists and they didn't admit the boy who believed the fish was mermaid. They thought their idea was right and the boy was wrong.However, the fish became mermaid in the end, because the boy had been believing the fish was mermaid.
I'm not sure they could really see mermaid, but they began to understand there exists many different ideas and admit him.
I think the author wanted to tell us is that we shouldn't place absolute trust in our own ideas and shouldn't force our ideas on others.

Enjoying Mermaid Comments
Keep the Mermaid comments coming. (Tuesday class will see it this week . . .) There are lots of possible interpretations in the animation that no one has mentioned yet. (Note that the name of a film, like books and newspapers, is always typed using italics.)
Shoichiro: "imagine" and "imagination," OK. Nice try, but there is no word "imaginate." (maybe we'll invent it here?!)
Yuki Y: Spellcheck! Not just you but everyone should respect your readers by spellchecking before you post your entries. A good habit to acquire . . .
Ranko: my family and I are going to see Alice today. Can't wait! We will see it in 3D (but not IMAX . . . too crowded!)
Chinami: Your blog entries are OK. We can read them!
Keep up the good work and blog on!

Hello! Today, I cleaned my room, especially bath room, kitchen and toilet after a long time.
I felt much better after having my room cleaned!!
By the way, I have lived with my sister since last April, but she is a great trouble to me because she never clean her room. she has not ever cleaned her room and cooked so I always do everything.
I hope that she keeps her room clean.

MERMAID..
My interpretation about this Tezuka's film we have watched yesterday, is simply,
people have the right to imaginate, We are free to imaginate. Whether your
imagination may not be true or not, we should keep imaginating. Don't let anyone rule your right.
Well, I guess that man was in love with the mermaid. But the Mermaid only existed in man's imagination.
Since imaginating is prohibited in his country, he was banned from imaginating, and thinking about the mermaid.
Eventhough no matter what happened to him, he did not stop imaginating about the mermaid, so the imagination about the mermaid
became true, they lived happily ever after.
If you keep believing, it becomes true.

5th post-The mermaid
I'm going to write about the animation that we saw last Friday.
Well...there are many ways you can interpret from the end the film, so it's an really hard subject for me.
I have two ideas.
The first one is that the fish that the boy found was just an fish until the end. This happened because the boy believed in the mermaid to the end. So the moral is "If you believe until the end your wish will come true"
My second idea is at the last scene the boy went out of the country to be with the mermaid. This is because at the beginning of the film there was an subtitle that was written " This is an story of an country that free ideas are forbidden." So if the boy can have his free ideas if he simply goes out. This will mean"Do not give up your ideas just because you are told to." Tezuka Osamu probably wants the freedom to think to be protected forever, which is an esstencial for writers like him and for children.
I want to see your views too, everybody.

I like tokoyaki very mich:)
Good evening! Last Thursday I held a takoyaki party with my teammates at a teammate who live alone. We often held this party and make takoyaki by ourselfes. I'll talk about this time. Takoyaki is a food that the eggs are mixed with flour, and cutted octopusses are added and then the liquid pour into molds of an iron plate that mlds is sphere and brown. The knack of making takayaki is pouring the liquid into each molds without spilling out of molds. We often see that a clerk of a takoyaki shop pours the liquid the whole iron plate, but it is worse way when laymen make by themselfs. If you want to make takoyaki because of this article, please make by this way:)
Hi! Is everyone having a nice weekend?
Well, I'll write about yesterday's short film.
At the last part, the police and the citizens were
looking at the boy, and they saw the mermaid too.
So I think from that day, the country lets the people imagine.
I think Osamu Teduka wanted to tell us the importance of imagination.
Recently, because of the new invetions, it is getting hard for us to imagine.
For example, in the past, robots were imaginary things that didn't exist,
but now, we can actually buy them.
As a animation creator, I think Osamu imagines a lot, so maybe he wanted
people to realize how exiting it is to imagine.
Anyways, I thought the film was really unique!

OMG!!!
I'm now perplexed by this blog.
Certainly I've already written blogs 2 times・・・
But my blog disappeared!!!!!!!!!
OMG!!!!
If Armstrong read this blog, please tell me why.
By the way, recently I 'm absorbed in watching new dramas.
Especially, I like "Sunaoninarenakute".
The story is about the relationships between people who got to know each other through Twitter.
Do you know Twitter?
It is popular and many entertainers also use it.
I'd like to try it, but it's a little difficult, I thik.
If you use it, please tell how to use.
Instead of Twitter, I use mixi frequently!
Probably I log in once in 10 minutes at least. lol
If you are my mixi, please check it!!
I think the communication on the SNS site is useful and interesting.
When we look at someone's notes , we can have information jointly.
It 's funny♪
I want to use various SNS sites for relationships with my friends.

hi
Hi,
I'm going to write my imagination ending about the movie we watched yesterday in IE class called "Mermaid" by Osamu Tezuka.
At the very ending, when the boy takes fish with him into the ocean, I saw two shadows jumping across each others at the last second of the movie. One of them is the fish turns to mermaid and I think another one is the boy turns to merman. And so, they lived happily ever after in the ocean :)
The citizens were watching them from the hill because I think they feel that no one can stop his imagination and give up on forcing him not to imagine.
yesteday's
Hi! yesterday, I watched the short movie made by Osamu Tezuka.
I gonna write how I thought about this story.
I thought the boy liked to imagine and wanted to meet a mermaid.
One day, when he touched the fish, he imagined the fish turned into a mermaid. He suddenly fell in love.He was happy and enjoyed with her.After, he proposed he should take her out to his watercase in his house.But his parents couldn't see the fish as a mermaid.And his nation didn't allow people to imagine freely.So, he had to receive punishment and to be tortured. I thought he was very tough. Because even if he was repeated to be tortured, he didn't forget love for her and continued to claim this was not fish but the mermaid. In the end, I thought he was very sad because he was forced to set her free in the ocean. But once the fish was in, it turned a genuine mermaid. I supposed the end of this story told us if we continued to believe and love something, even if it was just imagination, it would come true.
I thought Osamu Tezuka also wanted to teach us like the same thing, that is, even if it was just own imagination, as long as we hoped strongly, it would be certainly realize.
this is my evaluation of yesterday's short movie.
thank you and see you next time!^^

My recent challenge
Hello, I'm Sho. This is my first entry to this ie3 blog.
Recently, I began to study Russia because of my interest in Russian literature such as Dostoevskii or Tolstoi. Though I can't still read only alphabets and some easy words, to learn something new is very exiting for me.
What most surprised me is to know that the pronounce of same words are different from country to country. For example, the alphabet 'C' is pronounced 'esu' and 'P' is 'eru'. Moreover, Russia has interesting shape alphabets such as д, ш or ю. You may use these words when you send e-mail with your cellphone.
In the future, I would like to travel around Russia by myself.
But above all, I must develop my English ability in the university!

Good evening!
In today's class,we watched the short film made by Osamu Tezuka,Mermaid.I would appreciate if we could share our interpretation of the film.As for my interpretation,although I had almost no idea because it seemed rather abstract to me despite an animation,I could identify at least that the freedom to imagine something was probably prohibited.I also think that the boy is probably a main character.What was happening through the story is probably his falling in love with that mermaid.Sorry,so far,this is all that I can come across about that film.
Have a nice weekend!
I have already finished today's class.
Everyone, have a nice weekend!!
I'm going to go to a movie with my friend this weekend!
The title of a movie is "Alice In Wonderland".
I'm very excited about going to see it, because I'm a lover of Tim Burton who is a supervisor.
I really love films directed by him. For example, Charlie And The Chocolate Factory, Edward Scissorhands, Batman and so on.
I also see other movies. For example, Life Is Beautiful, The Shawshank Redemption, The Butterfly Effect and so on.
I recommend seeing Life Is Beautiful especially!!!!!!
I think it's really masterpiece.
>shizuka
Oh! I also like "Konan".
I used to see Konan in the movie theater.

4th post
Good eve. It's my fourth post and I realized that I didn't introduce myself...not even a fragment!
The name's Jun, but I rather like to be called by my family name. (possibly because I have never been called by my name except my parents or a small number of girls I have met)
I'm a sort of person that takes things light but never crosses the line I also love justice and hate the evil.
My hobby?...hmm I like things tend out to be quite disturbing to others. I don't know why but...
anyway if you want to know my favorite band is called "Blue Stahli" my favorite electronic game to do is "dodonpachi daifukkatsu black label".
Okay, I think you have never heard of it. If you seem interested, go to youtube and see for yourself. You will know me better. Finally I will warn you again because the contents can be totally disturbing visually, and audiolly. But it can change your view what music is and why games are worth doing.
A few examples.

GOOD EVENING
Hi! I'm Ranko.
it's very cold today, isn't it?
Now, I'm in the PC room in the university and I use the Internet!
The reason why I'm in the PC room is that I had a homework.
I learn about programming, because I'm really interested in systems engineer.
But, It's very hard for me to make home page. I don't know the details about mechanism of a computer.
But I'll never give up!!!!!!
>Haruka Kobori
What a nice activity!
I also want to guide foreigners.

hello
Like Haruka, this is first time to blog on, so I'll introduce myself!
My name is Shizuka, and everyone calls me "sheeton" so you can call me that!(it's kind of weird when spelled in English lol) I live in Setagaya, Tokyo. I used to live in New Jersey for 6 years from second grade to seventh grade. I really am interested in English, and I want to get better and study a lot in university. I'm hoping to get better in this class!
Today I went to a club event in Shibuya by NACK, dance circle. Actually I wasn't really thinking of joining a dance circle, but this event was awesome, and it really made me want to join NACK. I'm interested in baseball circle too, so I'm gonna have to think more before I decide!
What circles are you guys going to join?
hikari> I like J-POP, R&B, hip hop and so on!
akane>My craving right now is definitely natto!
sweet dreams=)

Raining
I suddenly realized that I had a lot of things left to do. I haven't done my discussion reports for today(listening) and tomorrow(core). You could say it's a huge disaster! But I can explain why.
I got my new PC(iMac) recently and was spending the time setting it up. I'm writing from this Mac now. I needed to copy all of my data from my previous computer into my brand new one. I have so many songs in my iTunes that it took me over three or four hours to move all of them. This is why I'm so late with my homework.
In reality, except that fact, I wasted my time seeing films and reading books because that's what I live for (too exaggerated)!

Well...apart from that, I got an job for the first time! it's an

who are willing to take the entrance exam of the junior high school. I'm very excited!

and you are applied for the job! I've found this job at the AOYAMAGAKUIN's job introduction page.

Beautiful day!
I hope everybody is enjoying this rare but amazingly sunny day! My plan for today is to eat Nabe with my neighbour :) I haven't eaten nabe since I left home so I'm pretty excited! Yesterday was a hectic day for me...I had class from period 1 to period 5. I never imagined it would be that hard. Tomorrow's schedule is going to be busy too, but I'm really interested in the ESS club, so I'm going to attend the meeting tomorrow after school. I 've never actually met any of my senpai so I'm looking forward to that. I'm addicted to pudding these days for some reason. As a matter of fact, I'm going to go to the convenience store later to buy one. hahaha What kind of cravings do you guys have??
>hikari
I love R&B and hiphop too!!! It pumps me up :)
About my part tome job
Good aftermoon! Do you have any classes on Wendesdays!? I have two classes and finished them, went home just now. I'm tired, but I'm going to have part time job after this:( I work for cafe named "Doutor coffee shop". Do you know? I have worked for here for for one year, but I 'm still green at this job. My main jobs are making drinks, foods, washing cups, saucer and keeping clean the inside of the shop. Once you become skilled, these jobs are very simple but I couldn't remember these things easily, it was very hard and difficult for me. Now I grow up compared to what I used tobe. From now on, I wanna develop my skills in this jobs!
Wednesdayyyy!
Thank god there's no class on Wednesday!

Oh, I was wondering, what kind of music do you guys like?
I listen to all kinds of music, like rap, R&B, j-pop, and so on.
Anyways I've got to finish my media presentation!!Yikes.
thanks for reading♪

This isn't good...
Is anyone into football?? Or maybe should I say soccer!
I love playing football, I'm a great fan and I also play for real.
Yes! It was the Champions League Semi-finals 1st leg last night, and Barcelona played against Internazionale! I agree both teams are great, with quality players and some beautiful piece of football, but I personally favour FC Barcelona. The thing is Barcelona got beaten 3-1 against the Italians!! Nonono this isn't good... Well, there's another home game (2nd leg) for Barca, I hope they beat them and make it to the Finals!!

Good morning everybody!Today's weather is fine.
Yesterday, I couldn't attend a certain welcom-party. So, I went to my friend house that is in Huchinobe with some friends. I thought it was comfortable house. I enjoyed talking with them and I made dinner for my friend. My confidence was a little. But my friend said "it's yummy". So, I was relieved.
I felt I went back in the age of elementary school then.
By the way, have you already decided which clubs will you join?
I decided to join ESS club.Because I thought I wanted to talk with a lot of people in English and to brush up my speaking ability.
>koichiro
Yeah, I'm glad to teach you to cook.
>Rika
I went previous ESS's welcom party. It was very fun and the seniors were kind to me.

Hi!! I'm Remi Nakamura. Nice to meet you. And this is my first time writing in this blog.I'd like to introduce myself. I live in Tokyo with my father,mother,me and a dog.I always wanted a dog since I was so young, and my father finally bought me a tiny poodle when I entered this school.
I love to watch movies and listening to music . I love all kinds of music like pop, hiphop, R&B, reggae ,techno... right now I especially like Justin Bieber. does anybody know him??
Hello X‐D
Good evening everyone! I'm Saya. This is my first time writing in this blog :-)
Well well, it took me really long time to enter this blog, right? But I'm really happy to join this blog!
I just woke up and I'm still sleepy here, so I'm really muddleheaded now, but this is my first time, so let me write about myself.
In last class, I told that my secret(actually it's a hobby) is collecting miniatures, but I really love to make decorations of sweets too. Ah..I don't really know how to say this in English but "Sweets Deco" is the words in Japan.
Other things, I love animals(but not bugs), shopping, karaoke, and sleeping. I also like Latin music.
Sometime I look like I'm staring at you, but that's because I have poor eyesight! Please make friends with me♪
Good night everyone!

bad hair day...
Today, I couldn't wake up early so I had to go to school with my hair undone.
When I looked in the mirror it looked so poofy like it had been microwaved...that was very embarrasing.*sob
After the first period class I went back to the domitry to chill, eat lunch, and to straight my hair.
Sadly, when I headed for the school for forth period class it started rainning and my hair became poofy again. ><
I guess that the rain doesn't like me :( or maybe I should cut my hair..
Anyways, I'm looking forward to go to the ESS' new commers welcome party on tomorrow evening. It seems like a really good club!
>kdoi
I like many genres of books. Especially science fiction. Do you know a book called "The Swarm"(or "shinnkai no yrr" as Japanese title)? It's pretty interesting!

Hiya, I hope everyone's doing alright! I haven't blogged on for 3days or so, and I was surprised that so many people have written onto the blog! Does everyone read all the comments?? It does take some time to read all of them doesn't it lol
Anyway, what attracted me the most was, Keiyu!! Hows the 1Q84 book 3?? I'm a big fan of him as well, I absolutely love "The wind-up bird chronicle"!! It is LONG however it's a must read!! Have you read it as well?? I'm kind of a Murakami Haruki maniac, I'm reading the original version and the translated English version too. Ive read 1Q84 book 1 & 2 so I'm planning to buy it as well, but would you recommend it?? It was strange because book 2 ended in a unfinished way didn't it! I'm sooo glad book 3 came out.
What kind of books does the rest of the IE3 people read?? If there's a good one which you really push, do let me know!! Thanks xx

Good evening.In the last class,we kept on going to one person after another in order to detect all the classmates' secrets,didn't we? What really surprised me was the secret that someone's father had left her in the desert to punish her.
Anyway,it drove the fact home to me that the world is wide,for even such a father to exist.

Hi, thanks for people who replied to my entry!
Now I decided to join two clubs :D
Right now I'm typing this from computer area in the library.
I will have a trial practice for badminton club after the 5th class.
I can't wait!
But as I get busy with school activities, I must be good at managing the time since I'm getting new assignments everyday... I hope everything is going to be okay.
>Ranko
I found my article from The Japan Times website.
They have articles about Japan in English so hopefully you can find the one you like :]

Good morning #2
Good morning! I'm yuta. I'm too sleepy,because I have not got to bed yet. But,I can't sleep. I must go to early morning training in club activity.I belong to "Lacrosse"club in Aoyama Gakuin University. Do you know Lacrosse? But only a small number of people knows about Lacrosse.
Lacrosse is thesort that players scramble for a ball with a stick that is called "cross", and they compete thescore by putting the ball in the goal. Also,players may put pressure on the enemy by using "cross", so it looks like the American football or the Ice hockey. Tackle is permitted to the enemy. In short, Lacrosse is the very violent sport.
Please show "Lacrosse" on youtube! You can understand about "Lacrosse".

Hello! #1
Good morning! Nice to meet you. I'm yuta. This is first blog. At first, I want to write my family. I have parent, two sister, 3dogs. My big sister is 22 years old,and my little sister is 14years old.
Secondly, I'm from Nagoya.I graduated from Nagoya Gakuin high school. Do you know Nagoya?
Nagoya has many delicious foods. For example, Misokatsu, Hitsumabusi and Misonikomiudon.Nagoya is noted for its excellent "miso", so there are many foods that are made by miso.

It is my mistake.
Hi, everyone. this is my second article.
I am very nervous now because I forgot writing the news article of tomorrow homework.
I should work on the homework now, so I don't know what time I will go to bed.
To make matters worse, I must get up 7o'lock tomorrow morning.
I regret my easygoing weekends.
Probably Ican't sleep tonight!
bye...

Hi★
This is second time I write on this site.
I prepare for discussion now and I look for theme on the Internet!
But I can't find easily. So, eveyone please tell me the news site.
I know BBC news but I'd like to know other news site.
>Miho
I also enjoy to discuss with ESS members!
It's very difficult theme for me to discuss about the death penalty.
But It's very pleasant to exchange other person's sense of values, isn't it????
