With Chie

On Monday, I went to Joyful with my friend, Chie. We went there by bicycle, but Chie laughed me because I don't suit the bicycle. Another friend of mine, Mariko also says so..., but, I need the bicycle because I'm going to go my new partーtime job's shop by the bicycle.

Chie taught me how to ride a bicycle. She is good girl. Thank you, Chie! We always go to the bakery, so we went there first, and after that, we went the Joyful. Chie and I talked about lots things. I always cheer for you, Chie!!
It was good time for me. I want hang around more because I didn't hang around much times. I want to enjoy my daily life and be stronger morally.

MR2-1 ”Shrek”

I like this movie and I have this movie. First, I introduce this story. This movie's hero is Shrek. But, he is a little different from the common hero. The Common hero is good looking, strong and loved by many people. However, "There is no hero that does not have some exception." Don't you think so? Shrek is living in a swamp alone. He was enjoying his life. But, one day, something unexpected happened: the fairy-tale inhabitants (such as the 7 dwarfs, the gingerbread man, fairies and so on) were banished. Surprisingly, they came to Shrek's swamp. He met a donkey there, his name was Donkey. Donkey was very talkative. He asked Shrek to help them. Of course, Shrek refused because he isn't a common hero. However, he wanted to get his own swamp back. So, he decided to go to the man who banishes these fairy-tale inhabitants with Donkey.

Shrek doesn't like other people because Shrek was hated by many people because of his appearance. He is an ogre with green skin. Therefore, many people shun contact with him and Shrek doesn’t want to be mixed up with people. Shrek and the Donkey arrived at the kingdom. There were no fairy-tale inhabitants. They met a king and the king said if Shrek and Donkey are able to help Princess Fiona, he take away the people who were banished. So, they leave for a tower surrounded by magma with a dragon. Barely, they rescued Princess Fiona. In the trip, Shrek, Donkey and Fiona became good friends step by step, and Shrek and Fiona love each other but they couldn't tell each other honestly.

One day, they quarreled over trifles; it was a little misunderstanding. After that, Fiona decided to marry the king but Shrek realized his misunderstanding. And, he prevented that wedding. Fiona accepted Shrek and they kissed. In fact, Fiona is very beautiful but she changes to an ogre like Shrek at night. When she kisses her prince, she gets her real appearance. But, her appearance doesn’t change, she remained an ogre. The king told her how ugly she was, but Shrek said to Fiona she was very beautiful. They got marry and lived happily. By the way, the dragon fell in love with Donkey!!!

This movie made me consider many things. I was surprised when Fiona didn't change. But, I like this result because this was her real appearance . If she changed to a beautiful woman, he would say the same words to her, but I felt that result was better. Whether she has a beautiful appearance or not is no matter for Shrek and it is also for Fiona. They are so beautiful internally. I like this movie very much!!!

WEI post for next class

1. What is your usual writing/blogging schedule each week? Where do write/blog?

A. I usually write blogs after classes in the KGU library or 14 building.

2. Please look at your first post from Spring term and compare it with what you are writing now. What improvements do you see with your English and what do you think you should work on to improve?

A. I was writing short sentence in spring term, but, I found I’m writing longer sentence than spring term. I think to write every week is improving my English.

3. What are your opinions of doing movie reviews? Please talk about the time it takes and the availability of the movies.

A. My opinion about movie reviews is it takes a long time, because we have to watch the theme of movie. Watching movie takes about 2 hours and then, I start writing MR and it takes about 40 minutes to 1 hour. Every one wants to watch the movie at library, so I didn’t watch it I wanted to see because there are only 1 per movies.

4. Please give your suggestions for the class

A. I think to write blogs everyday is not easy. I don’t have many things what to write, so I think 5 post every week is little difficult.

5. Please give some advice to the students who will take this class next year.

A. I can’t say good words…I think this writing class is little hard, but never giving up. Do your best and I do my best!
