A Special Day

Today, I'll tell you about my high school memory.
When I was a high school student,
I belonged to volleyball club.
Actually I like to play volley ball,
I wasn't good at playing volley ball, so
I didn't belong to volley ball club until 2nd grader.
But, one day, my friend ask me to join the club
because the club had few people,
so they couldn't participate in tournaments.
At that time, I lost interest everything,
so I decided to join the club.
But, I was bad at playing volley ball,
I was distressed everyday.
Although I made an efforts, I didn't come to well.

Our team had a tournament after 2 months.
I got tense because I put everyone to trouble.
I thought what I could do for team.
My storong point was a serve,
so I decided to develop my techinque.

At the tournament, we fought with strong team,
which is No.1 in Tottori.
Oue team(school) had never won that team,
on the contrary, my school had never got 1set from that team.
But, we got 1set from that team at a new member tournament!!
My service rotated at the critical moment.
I got a tense, but I could get in a successful serve.
My serve lead to get 1set from strong team.

This happening made my confidence,
so that day is a special day for me.

Response to the Questions in John's post

I think that certainly technology is very useful,
but it has many negative effects.
John said negative points of technology on his blog.
I have a private blog, most of my friends also have it.
Friends of mine and I posted many articles.
Some people posted someone's abuse on their blog.
I think that doing so is very sad things.
If a person who was said bad things see the blog,
a person feel very sad, and feel angry.
Now, there are many murder cases caused by such things.
Even a boy who is a elementary school's student,
he kills other person. It is very sorrowful thing.
Many people use Internet, but it sometimes frightening.
Although people have developed technology,
I think that is not always good for us.

Gossip girl

This story maybe not globalization...
but for me, it is a kind of globalization.
Thesedays, I'm crazy about an American drama "Gossip girl".
Although I am a SIS student,
I was not interested in foreign films.
(Actually I saw the movie "SACT"etc...)
But, my senior advised me to see the foreign movies,
I decided to do so.
At first, I was puzzled which I choose.
Ultimately, I chose "Gossip girl"
because This drama is very famous and popular, and
my friend also likes this drama.
Though I didn't know What is this story like,
I came to love this drama rapidly.
The story is young celeb's story.
pretty make, beautiful dress, house, habit, food,
character's personality, expression, and so on...
All is fresh for me, and it was very impact on me.
I got many knowlege of America (especially NY)
from this drama.
In fact, the drama is a fiction, I know.
But, I think seeing the foreign movie is
an entrance of cross-cultural communication,
by extention, globalization.

My Summer 2010

When I posted last article,I talked about dliver's school.
This time, I would like to tell you the rest of my summer.
I went back to Nishinomiya after getting a dliver's license.
Then, I spent many times to playing with circle's members.
One night, we went to Rokko mountain to see night view.
Night view was wonderful.
I had never seen such a beautiful night view.
We also went to many places and played.
I had many good times with my circle's members.

September 8~11, we went to Okinawa!!
It was for the first time for me to go to Okinawa.
I was really looking forward to go to Okinawa.
In Okinawa, of course, we went to the sea and swam.
Although the sea was a gently shelving shallow beach,
we had a good time there by throwing holothurians. haha
( Holothurians means "Namako" in Japanese.)
We also went to a cape to see the starry sky.
I saw numerous stars there.
The night sky was beyond description,
but it was really really really beautiful.
I was impressed with that scene.

Like this, I had good times with circle's members,
But, my seniors will be soon retire from circle.
They made my happy school life, so I miss them.
Although I feel sadness, I cheer up for their job hunting
and I want to get along with other fellows.

This summer was exciting!!

In dliver's school *

Hi! How's going?
I had many good times in summer vacation.
First, I would like to tell you about dliver's school.
When I posted last article in this blog,
I was planning to get a dliver's license.
In summer vacation, I really got a dliver's license!
The first half of summer vacation,
I went to dliver's school every day and studied
dliver's studies and practiced to drive.
At first, I was alone because my friends had tests.
I felt lonely, but my friends gradually came to school.
I felt happy because I met my friends after a long time.

My teacher was Mr. Ishihara.
Our home town is same,
so we talked about local stories many times.
His thinking was very funny and interesting.
I laughed every day.

After three weeks, I graduated dliver's school.
Next day, I took a dliver's license examination
and I passed it. Finally, I got a dliver's license.

In fact, it was very hard for me to go to dliver's school.
But now, I can drive cars. I have a certificate.
Having a dliver' s license is valid.

I want to practice to drive more and more!

Summer Vacation

I am really looking forward to summer vacation!!
I will go back my home town
and I want to do many things in summer vacation.
First, I'm going to get a dliver's license.
Everyone in my town have a dliver's license.
Without having a dliver's license, we can't live in my town!
My friends also have a dliver's license, so I want to it early.
Second, I will play with my friends.
My boyfriend and best friend still live in my town.
They are waiting for my coming back,
and I'm happiest when I play with them,
so I will apend time with my important friends.
Third, I want to meet my friends of my high school.
Many friends of my high school go to outside my prefecture
and I love my classmates of third grader,
so we are planning to hold an almni meeting for summer vacation.
I have many things that I want to talk with my old friends.
Fourth, I'm going to go to Okinawa!!
I belong to valley ball circle.
My circle goes to okinawa in summer vacation every year.
Of course, they are going to go to there this year.
I have never been to okinawa,
so I' m looking forward to going to Okinawa!
Thus, I want to do many many things in summer vacation!
But now, I have to do many reports and study.
I must do a lot og things, I'm nearly depressed.
But, I will be in pleasure after everythings finish.
I will do my best for my reports and tests.

A frightening experience

It is my brother's experience.
When he was thirteen, he was in a traffic accident.
At that time, he was going to school.
He rode bicycle, and he was about to across the street.
The street was full of cars.
He was hit by car, and he dropped another car's bonnet,
and he was thrown down to the street.
He was taken to the hospital by ambulance.
My mother and I went to hospital soon.
He was on the bed with unconsciusness.
During at that time, he had a kind of astral projection.
(astral projection means ''yuutairidatsu'' in Japanese)
But it was little strange.
when he was on the bed,
my mother was standing,and I sat the chair.
But in his astral projection, who onthe bed was me!
And he sat the chair. But, another situation was accurate.
He saw the room, my mother, nurse, doctor, in his dream.
It was strange.
If he had not wear the helmet, he could have be died.
I think wearing the helmet is important!
