Romeo and Juliet -essay prep/essay 10-
Actually I have seen “Romeo and Juliet” for the first time despite it being Shakespeare’s very famous love story. But I have known this movie’s words, “Oh, Romeo, why are you Romeo?” I didn’t know what these words mean until watching it. This is a modern-day “Romeo and Juliet”. Leonardo DiCaprio and Claire Danes act as Romeo and Juliet in this movie. They are beautiful and right for the role, I think.
Romeo is the son of the Montagues. He is beautiful man and a little naughty. But his friend Mercutio is naughtier. His character will make him plunge into a sad situation. Juliet is the daughter of the Capulets. She is also a beautiful girl and expected to marry with a rich man by her parents. Her cousin, Tybalt is the nephew of Lady Capulet. He is proud of himself and his family name and an impetuous man. Capulet is a father of Juliet. He is sometimes fierce. Lady Capulet is the mother of Juliet and tries hard to make her a proper Capulet. Angelica is a Juliet's personal attendant and confidante. At first, I thought she is a follower of Lady Capulet. But she is the only person who worries about Juliet.
Romeo suffered from one-sided love. His friends including Mercutio took him to the Capulet’s party. The Capulets and Montagues were on bad terms. There, he fell in love Juliet. Juliet fell in love with him, too. But they knew that they were the enemy. But their love didn’t end. They exchanged marriage vows by Friar Laurence secretly. He expected this would reconcile both families. But a sad accident happened. Tybalt killed Mercutio. Romeo was beside himself by anger and killed Tybalt. He was banished. Friar Laurence told him to publish their marriage and called back Romeo. After he left, Juliet was forced to marry another man by her parents. She asked Friar Laurence what she should do. He had a certain plan. The night before marriage, she drinks a poison. But it doesn’t kill her. She’ll stiffen as if she died, and wake up after 24 hours. Then, she’ll be in church as a dead person. After that, she’ll run away to Romeo. Despite the fact that this was very dangerous plan, she decided to do it. Friar Laurence sent a letter written the plan for Romeo soon. But Romeo didn’t receive it. He heard from his attendant that Juliet died. The attendant didn’t know the plan and thought really she died. Romeo grieved and decided to go to her. If he is arrested, it means his death. He told good-bye to his attendant on the way and ran through the town to her. Then he already prepared for death, he had a strong poison. Finally, he arrived where she was. When he said good-bye and drunk the poison, she woke up. She said good-bye to him and killed herself.
There is no result if both families are reconciled. I think they were. If not, their death doesn’t have a meaning. I wondered why both families’ young people are such short temper. Is it common in UK? Japanese are thought to be calm about things usually. If they become calmer, they may be able to be reconciled. Romeo and Juliet are poor. They are only son and daughter of their families, so when they are dead, both blood end. (563 words/total:8911 words)

Toy Story -essay prep/essay 11-
This is story about toys. When I was a child, I didn’t have many toys, so I envy Andy, because it appears that he has many toys. He and other children characters seem to like doll toys. But I preferred stuffed toy animal. I have thought they come alive at midnight and play all sorts of pranks. In this movie, toys come alive when there is no one around. But they are very funny. If I watched it earlier, I might also have liked dolls.
Woody is the Andy’s favorite toy, and the leader of his toys. His character is a cowboy, so his style looks western. On his back, there is a string with a ring at its edge. Pulling it, he says some words. Actually he is a wooden doll and a little old. But Andy loves him heartily. Buzz Lightyear is the toy space ranger and the latest model toy. He has some buttons on his body, and pushing them, he says some cool words clearly. Pushing the other buttons, his arm gives off a red laser or he spreads his wings. Moreover he has a strong sense of justice, so almost all the toys like him. Slinky is funny and my favorite character. He is the Woody’s best friend. When Woody was in trouble, only two he and Bo Peep worried about him. Bo Peep is the shepherd doll and has beautiful blue eyes. Woody loves her. Rex is also my favorite toy, a dinosaur who is not at all dreadful. He is scared if the stronger dinosaur appears, on the other hand, looks forward to seeing herbivorous dinosaur because he wants to be proud that he is fresh-eating. He is such a funny and cute toy, I thought. Andy is the owner of there toys and he loves toys. He writes his own name at Woody’s sole . Sid is Andy’s neighbor. He also likes toys, but he loves remodeling toys. After that, the toys were done so are left themselves for the long time.
Andy’s mother presented him the latest toy, Buzz Lightyear, a space ranger. Andy was absorbed in him soon. Woody envied Buzz. One day, they left at the gas station in accident and tried to return to Andy. But they were on bad. Moreover, they were taken by Sid. At his house, they started to be reconciled little by little. Buzz helped Woody from a cage and Woody saved Buzz’s life. After that, they could return to Andy together.
Toys have their own character. Bo Peep also needs for Andy even though she is female and a doll for girl, because she has a role. I thought if there are various kinds of people, our real world may be more interesting. (448 words)

You felt strange, didn't you? "The enormous turnip" I have known is different the members who pull it. The animal pulls cat is mouse! Are these original story's members? But the contents this story wants to say is same. The farmer is big and strong, on the other hand, the bird is small. Despite it, he couldn't pull out it without the bird and was helped by her. In short, the strong people shouldn't underestimate the nonpersons. Now, there is the gap between rich person and poor person. If all persons live help each other, all are happy, I think. (189 words)

The story of Chocolate -Book Review 6-
Do you like chocolate? I like very much. Do you know about chocolate? I don't much. I'll tell you chocolate's history this book said.
A thousand years ago, chocolate was a big secret. They discovered a way to change cocoa beans to smelling drink. After that, people drank it and nobody ate it. They used not only cocoa beans but also cocoa tree, their pots, their mugs and even their walls. Cocoa became valuable gradually and they could buy a rabbit for ten beans and slave for one hundred!
The Aztecs's king who knew the existence of chocolate used it when he made peace with other country. Since then, it began to spread to the world. In 1847, an English chocolate maker, Francis Fry, invented the world's first chocolate bar. After that, many people invented various kinds of chocolate, milk chocolate, kisses, Goo Goo Cluster and M&M's.

I ate it the other day♪ The upper picture is so. The one missing was eaten by me(^^;) It was so good! Chocolate is the actually king of sweets, I think. (204 words)

The Gingerbread Man -Book Review 5-
Gingerbread man is tasty♪ But I was surprised this story('д’;) There are many tragic fairy tales in foreign counties. In Japan, there hardly are such stories.
Once upon a time, an old woman and old man lived with horses and cows. They wanted their children. Then, she made a gingerbread man. He began to run away as soon as he left an oven. She and he followed him. He ran singing. Watching it, a horse and cow also followed him to eat. Watching the old woman and man, the horse and the cow was following; farmer also followed him to eat. Watching the old woman and man, the horse, the cow and farmer was following; children also followed him to eat. The gingerbread man ran and ran singing. Then, he found stream ahead. A fox told him to help to cross the stream. He took on a fox's tale. But his tale got wet. He moved to the fox's back. But there also got wet. He moved to the fox's head. Then, suddenly the fox ate him!
Oh no! Then, what this story wants to say? It's just cruel! After reading it, I researched about the gingerbread man. His origin is thought having started in British. Henry VIII said ginger takes effect to Pest having spread in British in those days. Many people made cookie added ginger. By the way, fox always acts the villain in Japan and foreign countries, I think. Do you know this is why? (。_°) (252 words/total: 7408 words)

Despite this book's cover is weired, it attracted the interest of mine. The man is sucking ink by straw. What is he doing?A boy hates books was son of book store's owner. On day, he hid himself there when he tended the store. It was his favorite. Then, a strange man entered his store. He floated off the ground! He picked a book and begun to suck by straw.

He told a lie that there is his grandmother's grave. But the man read his mind and said, "You will develop sacking ink tomorrow!" The next day, he became one of the ink drinkers!

Leonardo DiCaprio and Claire Danes act Romeo and Juliet each other in this movie. They are beautiful and right for the role, I think.
Romeo is the son of the Montague. He is beautiful man and beside naughty. But his friend Mercutio is naughtier. His character will make him plunge into a sad situation. Juliet is the daughter of the Capulet. She is also a beautiful girl and expected to marry with rich man by her parents. Her cousin, Tybalt is the nephew of Lady Capulet. He is proud of himself and his family name and an impetuous man. Capulet is a father of Juliet. He is sometimes ferocity. Lady Capulet is a mother of Juliet and tries hard to make prosper Capulet. Angelica is a Juliet's personal attendant and confidante. At first, I thought she is a follower of Lady Capulet. But she is an only person concerns Juliet heartily.

School of Rock -essay prep/essay 7-
This is story about a certain man and children with rock-n-roll. I don’t know very much about rock. My favorite group is the B’z, they sing rock. But they are Japanese and I have never heard foreign rock. So I have thought that I may feel bored before watching it. After watching, I found even someone who doesn’t like rock so much can enjoy this movie.
There were two types’of people in this movie. One type is an unfettered person like Dewey, this movie’s main character. He was a very free man even if everyone kept away him. I long this type of people, for example, artists, singer, and adventurers and so on. Another type is an honest person like Rosalie, the principal of private school, Ned, Dewey’s roommate and so on. Actually, all the other characters belong to this type. It’s real, I think. They hide their real feelings or don’t find how to express themselves. Unfortunately, I think I belong to the latter type.
Dewey loves rock and he had been a member to a certain rock band. The members of the band wanted to win a rock contest. But to enjoy music is more important for him even if they can’t win. So he always did a radical performances. But then, such music wasn’t in fashion. Finally, they decided to dismiss him. He didn’t have any money. Then, he posed as his friend and worked in a school as a teacher. There, students were honest. He found they had an ability to play music and he began to teach them rock. They gradually became lively. But it came out that he wasn’t a real teacher a day before the contest. He gave up, but the students didn’t. They came to his house by school bus. They went to the contest and played a song. It made by a student who was the most honest. Seeing them play on stage, their strict parents were very proud and happy.
This movie teaches us two things. First, we should express ourselves even if it is to our boss, teacher, and parents, and of course friends. I know it’s not easy and many people may be afraid to do that. I have remembered one scene in this movie. When he talked with the private school’s teachers at lunch, he said something a little strange thing for them. But they didn’t show contempt; on the contrary, they seemed to enjoy his interesting talk. On the other hand, Rosalie kept away from the students and teachers. I felt their longing for something cool, smart and eccentric. Second, adults shouldn’t force children to do what the adults want. The children in this movie were lucky. Actually, there are a few teachers such as Dewey, I think. It’s true that he is not the best overall. But his best point is that he was good at not only tuning but also wheedling, I think. Due to his ability, children could feel they can as they want. It’s important for adults.
Having watched this movie, I could have some little dreams, but I don’t say them here… Japanese usually work too hard. I want to enjoy both my job and hobby because I think the harder I work, the better I enjoy my hobby. Then, we can spend more lively our life. By the way, I have just remembered my music club’s teacher in my high school. I belonged to a chorus club when I was a high school student. He also loved music as Dewey did. We have to study because my high school’s percentage of students who go on to a higher stage of education was high. Despite that he often said before chorus contest, “Don’t study a lot. Studying is not good for singing.” We have known then that we need studying, but we could relax by his words. He was very attractive and popular among us. I thought Dewey resembles him. It’s difficult to be like them. I want to make a target not only job but my hobby at least and be an uncommon and interesting adult. (686 words)

This movie teaches us two things. First, we should express ourselves even if it is to our boss, teacher, and parents, and of course friends. I know it’s not easy and many people may be afraid to do that. I have remembered one scene in this movie. When he talked with the private school’s teachers at lunch, he said something a little strange thing for them. But they didn’t show contempt; on the contrary, they seemed to enjoy his interesting talk. On the other hand, Rosalie kept away from the students and teachers. I felt their longing for something cool, smart and eccentric. Second, adults shouldn’t force children to do what the adults want. The children in this movie were lucky. Actually, there are a few teachers such as Dewey, I think. It’s true that he is not the best overall. But his best point is that he was good at not only tuning but also wheedling, I think. Due to his ability, children could feel they can as they want. It’s important for adults.
Having watched this movie, I could have some little dreams, but I don’t say them here… Japanese usually work too hard. I want to enjoy both my job and hobby because I think the harder I work, the better I enjoy my hobby. Then, we can spend more lively our life. By the way, I have just remembered my music club’s teacher in my high school. I belonged to a chorus club when I was a high school student. He also loved music as Dewey did. We have to study because my high school’s percentage of students who go on to a higher stage of education was high. Despite that he often said before chorus contest, “Don’t study a lot. Studying is not good for singing.” We have known then that we need studying, but we could relax by his words. He was very attractive and popular among us. I thought Dewey resembles him. It’s difficult to be like them. I want to make a target not only job but my hobby at least and be an uncommon and interesting adult. (686 words)

Then, I went around the other stalls. I ate some foods, rice-ball, tohfu-don, a parfait and so on. These were very delicious, especially I like tohfu-don. The day, oden was sold fewer than first day. We wished third day become cold. The wish became true half. The third day was little cold. We sold harder. Finally, we could make a profit. (´∀｀)

At last, many fire works were displayed. It was so beautiful. I had so good time the three days. (＾＾)♪ (306 words/ total: 4611 words)

Shrek -essay prep/essay 3-
I watched “Shrek” the other day. I like watching movies, so I often do. But I have never watched this movie because this movie’s hero, Shrek, in the center of this movie’s cover looks very frightening. I might not have watched it if this movie’s review was not an assignment. After I watched this movie, my imagination of him changed soon. He is kind and cool. He is close to my image of the ideal man.
Next, I’ll tell you about this movie’s funny characters. First is Shrek. People are afraid of him because he is a monster. None of them found his real character so they were also afraid of him at first. He lives near a pond of mud and is always lonely. But he concealed this feeling because he is an obstinate person. Second character is Donkey. He can speak and kept by ill-tempered old woman. He is a spirited donkey and good at making a joke. His chatter made him a pain sometimes, also happy at other times. Third is Princess Fiona. She has been sleeping for a long time, waiting for real kiss from her prince at a tower. The tower was protected by big dragon breathing fire. Fiona looks like a calm princess in fairy tales. But actually she is not. The fourth character is Farquaad. He is an ill-tempered and small man. A wish he has to achieve for his future is to get Fiona from the tower. He is a really crafty man despite being so small. People who live in his area are made to do as he says. For example, wash hands, face, teeth and so on.
I’ll tell you about a story. One day, Donkey was helped by Shrek. Sherk lives beside the pond of mud alone. Donkey followed him. Shrek wants to shoo Donkey away. But there are many fairy tale characters in his house. They are sent there by Farquaad. He visited him to recover his territory. Farquaad has just held an athletic meeting in a stadium. Shrek competes there and won. Then, Farquaad’s ability as a crafty man was demonstrated. He exploited Shrek for his own wish and promised when Shrek helps Fiona, he’ll return his territory. Shrek and Donkey left for the tower where she was sleeping. Finally, they could help her. At first, Fiona acted as a calm princess. But the monster who is her prince didn’t understand the fairy tales. So she showed her real character gradually. Actually, she was a very strong woman. But there is a bigger secret with her. It’s that she becomes an ogre like Shrek at night. Then, they have loved each other. Donkey has known it. He persuaded Shrek to stop Fiona and Farquaad’s marriage ceremony and declare his own love for her. Shrek obstructed their ceremony and declared his love for her. Then, she decided to show her figure at night. Looking at her, Farquaad changed his attitude and tried to arrest her. On the other hand, Shrek didn’t change his attitude. Her figure didn’t change after the magic was lifted. But they were happy.
I like this movie because it’s not common. In this movie, people who are strange won. However, people who are common and chained by rules couldn’t get happy. It’s the beautiful couples that appear in fairy tales I have known. But a prince and a princess in it are not beautiful. I thought it’s not interesting all are only beautiful. (562 words)

The Little Mermaid -Book Review2-3-
This story is a very famous fairy tale. This was remade by Disney. Disney's one is a story with happy ending. But actually, original story is not so.The Sea King's eldest daughter falls in love a certain prince. When his ship was capsized by a storm, she helped him. But she hid herself and couldn't tell him that because mermaids are not supposed to let people see them. The prince fall in love an other girl. She didn't know that and entered into a contact with a sea witch to make her to woman. The sea witch said if she can't get the prince's love, she will dissolve into the ocean waves! It's so danger. But she didn't pause. And then, she became a woman. The prince was very kind and welcomed her to his palace warmly. But then, she knew he'll marry with an other girl a next day. She was so sad and disappeared into welcoming waves...
Fairy tales usually end with happy ending. Why does this story not? What does it want to say? There is a thing it wants to say, I think. We can't have our own way not necessarily. It's sad reality for children. She threw away everything in the sea and became a woman having only love for the prince. But he married with an other girl because he was convinced that the girl helped him from a storm. The former little mermaid girl couldn't talk. Then, it's normal the prince married with the girl. Now, there are many irrational happenings around the world. Fairy tales are just un-common. I think fairy tales make children dream.So "The Little Mermaid" may be a fairy tale for adults.

ultra soul
You know, I love B'z. I like their almost songs. I'll introduce you one of my favorite songs, "ultra soul". This song is very famous. So many people know it. But I'll tell you many good points of this song once more! (＾＾*)
First, this song's melody and accompaniment are very very cool! (><) It starts by Tak's guitar and Inaba's whisper. Then, his voice sounds like instrument. Soon, his guitar solo begins. Recently, I play the guitar. So I can understand his high skill. Please listen carefully. Second, this song's PV is sooooo cool, too! Did you watch the PV I pasted the upper part? Please check Inaba. Have you seen a man who looks nice with sun glasses and a fur coat than him? I haven't. I think, he is not only a singer but also an actor. Maybe, he always choices clothes by the song's imagination because his style changes by melody. "ultra soul"'s prelude is calm than latter comparatively. When the melody became hard, he took off his coat and threw in the sky. Then, his clothes become vivid orange. His expression is always good. Third good point is the words. He said, "If you want your dream to be came true, you have to have patience little pain. I like their strong words. (´∀｀*)
Do you understand an attraction of this song?♪ I'm glad if you listen to this song by my introduction. (244 words)

Essay 7 -Movie Review-
I have many favorite movies. I’ll introduce two of these. First one is “Kyo-no-dekigoto”. It is a Japanese movie and about Japanese young people’s daily life.. Satoshi Tsumabuki and Rena Tanaka act the college students in this movie. The characters spend time for talking about love, plying game, cutting the hair of one of them, drinking, watching TV, driving and so on. There are no strange happening and it’s not exciting! So I think some may feel it’s boring. But I like it because I know the happiness of usual life such as this movie and sympathized. It’s pleasure spending time with friends. In this movie, characters went to the sea to watch the whale which was reported in the TV news for fun. It’s only college students who can do these acts because high school students don’t have a car and adults are busy for their job. So only we can do! I want to make a lot of memory of my college days. I think it’s fun watching it not only now but also when we grow up.
Second one is “50 first dates”. It’s foreign movie. Henry was going around with many women. He was a specialist of live. One day, he fell in love Lucy at sight in the restaurant. He talked to her and made closely her soon as usual. They enjoyed talking. Next day, he spoke to her in a friendly way again. But she didn’t remember about him. Then, he knew her handicap. She forgets about the day before! But he didn’t stop approaching her. He often failed. But he didn’t give up. They fell in love every day. But one day, she listened about own handicap and own lover.

WEI Part 2
I write my blog about my favorite artist, books, movies, my dairy, book review, essay, and so on. My favorite label is “B’z”! They are my favorite singer and I can write or talk as many as I like. I’m trying to teach the attraction of them by my blog to others. I usually write my blog at home or building 14 at the college. I write it at night at home and free time I don’t have any class at building 14.
The good point of my blog is I write my post in detail. I write my thought and my research. I studied my questions about the books I read or the movies I watched or artists I like. So I could write my blog in detail. I also have a bad point. My blog is irregular. When I was free, I wrote much news. On the other hand, when I was busy or have no interesting news I can write on my blog, I hardly renew my blog’s contents.It’s wrong. So I’ll write regular renewal.
My blog may be boring. But please check, especially the labels, “Movie” and “B’z”! I always enjoy my friends’ blogs. There is much information I don’t know. Please continue your interesting blogs. (210 words)

Secretarial Test
I finished the secretarial lectures. I'm glad to have finished a secretarial test. I was very very busy while I took the lectures. I need a lot of preparation about relationship, manner, fashion, common sense, how to send a letter and so on. It sounds easy. But it's so difficult for me because I don't have a common sense. Do you know that how many kinds of letter there are? Do you know how to refuse the request by important person? My teacher taught us we need that not only knowledge but also good "hitogara". It means good personality. I think it is more difficult to change one habit of personality than to remember the 100 words because personality connects a character. A person who is humble is good for secretary.They have to apologize soon despite they are right. Some people may say, "I can't understand!" But Secretary should act for boss's smooth work. How difficult it is! (＞＜;) (158 words: total 6361 words)
Attraction of them... B'z!
You know, I love B'z. So I made a label "B'z". (´∀｀) I'll write about their attraction. At first, let's learn their records♪ All sales of their CD is 76,500,000!! It's the most of the Japanese singers. Moreover, they have got No,1 sales of their single CDs 41 consective straight! More Moreover, they are one of the Hollywood's RockWalk members!! It is first time that Asian musician was chosen. They are wonderful! (><) They have organized B'z about 20 years ago. Now, they are one of the star of the Japanese music field. However, they never stops publishing the new songs and hardly appear on TV. They continues the steady concert because they love music and only want to enjoy it. They say, "We have done our famous things. After that, 20 years has passed. That's all." They are smart♪ (´з｀) (144 words)
Taka & Toshi
My favorite entertainer is "Taka and Toshi". Especially, I love Taka.
I have many reasons I like them. But the most main one is they are entertaining. They are famous for "O-beika!" (´∀｀) How to use it is, at first, Taka jokes that it's impossible thing for Japanese. For example, he always says, "Cherry pie!" when Toshi asks him, "What is your favorite food?" and so on. It's impossible for Japanese. It sounds European or Americana's answer. So, Toshi says at once, "O-beika!". I like this customary conversation. ♪
Second reason is Taka's character. He is kind, cute, hard and docile. However, on the other hand, strong-willed. In a certain program, he was deceived by Toshi. It was a situation that Toshi was scooped by weekly magazine about love and their new program called off. I expected Taka will become angry because he was pleased well when a new program was given them. But he is not. On the contrary, he worried about Toshi's girl friend! He is very kind. (´д｀) He is good at singing! He won in the entertainer's singing contest.
Do you have a famous entertainer?♪ (195 words)

Third day's night, her husband told her he witness a Small man in the deep forest and he sang his name is "Rampelstiltskin♪" She were pleased. That night, it is clear that the dwarf returned crying.How do you think about this story? (＾＾) I think... She and her husband are unfair! The hero and heroine I know are very nice: Snow White, Sleeping Beauty, Cinderella and so on. They are good character and care for each other. (´∀｀) On the other hand, this story's characters take care only themselves. The hero and the heroine married without love, with money. Besides, the heroine broke the promise! I want heroes and heroines always to be honest. (＾＾;)
By the way, do you have some favorite books or illustrated books you had read in your infancy? I think many people have. Of course, I also have. It's title "Chibikuro-ojisan". It means "Short and black man". I love this book and read many many times. Especially, I have liked to read my favorite book on a bed being wrapped by quilt when I was a kindergartner. Now, I don't do such a thing. Moreover, I don't read a book recently without the text books. (´д｀) I maybe read fairy tales or illustrated books or pop-up books when I become a mother.
