Firefly

I went to watch Fireflies this Monday. First, I went to a watercourse near the zoo in Kumamoto city. I have watched many fireflies the watercourse, but I could not watch it this time. A firefly lives beautiful waterside. I though that the environment of the watercourse gradually is changing bad environment.

Next, I went to the Ezuko park. Do you know it? It is very famous for a beautiful lake. There are many living things. For example, frogs, a duck, fish, bell crickets and so on. Many frogs croaked. I hate a frogs, so I wanted to go back home. But I wanted to watch fireflies. So I walked all over the park looking for it. And I found a firefly at last. Only one it. It was very difficult to find. Because, the stream of lack seemed to be firefly by light. So I was very glad. I was satisfied only one it. ....On my way to the car, I could watched many fireflies. There were many fireflies another place. It have been about seven years since I watched many fireflies last. I was very impressed it.

There are many places where we can watch it in Kumamoto. For example, Kikuthi, Yamaga, Ashikita and so on. I want to go there to watch it. A firefly makes me happy. And it is associated Summer!

Essay 1-02b: University Life for Exchange Students

There are many exchange students from overseas in KGU. Form America, England, Canada, China, Korean and so on. They are about 19 years old to 25 years old. We are same generation. I try to think about exchange students. For example, their life in Japan or in school and so on.

 First, there is the good place for them in KGU. It is the English Lounge. They gather during their free time or lunch time. There are a PC, TV and darts. And there are many events. Also Japanese students can go there. Many students use there to talk with exchange students and to learning foreign language and culture. And exchange students can learn Japanese things. It is good for each other. Also, I think that exchange students are anxiety about many things of Japan. For example, a life in Japan, a school life, a food, a shopping and so on. They can listen to our opinion about those and they can exchange opinions each other. This place is not other university so much. So I want to come there students. 

 Next I think that KGU need a signboard of English in a student’s dining hall or a bakery or a Maruzen. It helps exchange students. For example, they can not read a menu in a student’s dining hall and a bakery for the first time. Some there are students who have an allergy. So, a menu are written in English protect from starting an allergy. Also they have to buy a stationary. It is different from overseas. And there are many books. For example a fashion magazine, novels, TOEIC and TOEFL texts and so on is.  So I should put up an explanatory pamphlet in Maruzen. Also we can buy these 20% off. It is very cheaper than other stores. I want to use Maruzen to many exchange students.

 Last, I want to know how study foreign language. Many exchange students are very good Japanese. They speaks Japanese fluently and they can here Japanese. Japanese is said difficult word in the world. So I want to learn how study English. I know that how exchange student had studied Japanese before came to Japan. I want to go oversea someday. So its advice wants to be useful.

 Exchange students are increasing from now on. What we exchange with them is good for us to get along and to learn foreign language. It is a multiplier effect. We have to talk with them positively.  KGU is a great environment to learn foreign. So I want exchange students to learn many things and I want to learn many things from them.

BR:1-05: Jojo Makes The TEAM

That's what friends are for.(P. 24)

This book is friendship's story. Jojo of a heroine didn't get along with her friends. When she told Sam what had happened, Sam said she had problems of her own. Finally, Jojo noticed the reason and she could get along with her friends.

 When I read this story, I remember when I was child. When I was child, we usually quarreled with friends. But we didn't understand the reason why friends got angry. I think that when we were child, it is just matter or time before reconciliation with friends.What quarreling is bad, but children can learn a lot of things.

 I am feel relieved about Jojo could do reconciliation with her friends.

Essay 1-02a: University Life

 I need a fast food store and a powder room for student.


 For example, MacDonald or KFC or LOTTELEA and so on. A fast food is very cheap and there are many kind. Many students do not have money. Especially students who living by theirself have to buy lunch every day. Some student make a packed lunch by theirself. So, cheap lunch help student. But, a fast food is not good for health so much, because it is high calorie. It is used a lot of oil. For example French fried potatoes. It is flied by a lot of oil, and it is used many times. So we do not have to eat it every day. We take care to eat too much. We eat it twice a week, and the other day is in a student’s dining hall or a bakery and so on.


 Also I have a nice idea for student’s health. I want a fast food store to make a original menu in KGU. For example a hamburger which used many vegetables. Students who living by theriself do not eat vegetables so much. They have to take it consciously. Also I want to add drink’s menu. There are a carbonated drink or orange juice and so on. And the orange juice is not 100 % fruit juice. And carbonated drinks is in a lot of sugar. My idea is adding 100% fruit juice and vegetables juice. It is very good for our health. There are many good point of a fast food store else.

 Next is a powder room. A powder room is to make up room for women. There are in a department store. Many students make up a mirror in a toilet, so be crowded in it. The reason why I need the room is else. For example, when I oversleep, I do not have time to make up. So I have to it in school. I can it in a classroom or a student’s dining hall. But it is coarse for women. I often see women who make up in a train or a bus. What we use powder room, when we are university student is important. Because we can get into a habit of making up in powder room.


 I think that this twice things is good for student.
