Stories of Dolls -Book Review 8-

This book has three some stories of dolls. I'll introduce two of these. In a first story, three dolls appear. One of them, the most beautiful hoped live in a palace. She always puts a sparkling hairpin. One fine day, their owner girl took them to the outside. You know, some birds like the sparkling things. Suddenly, she was taken away by a bird. He took her his nest. She has hoped to love a palace, not their common house. But bird's nest is not good than it. She asked him to return crying. Then, he insisted to give him her sparkling pin. She approved unwillingly. Finally, she could go home.

I had some dolls when I was a child. My house is, of course, not a palace. If my dolls had been hoping to live a palace than my house, I feel sad. (＾＾;) But most dolls and toys are expressed they are obedient in movies and books. I believe it!

I have heard a story similar to a second one. A girl has a favorite doll. They spent a time together. But one day, her parents presented her a new doll. She is able to walk, sing and talk. Moreover she has blond hair and blue eye. The girl's favorite doll has only black hair... She said she'll go to a dentist with the girl. It was the black hair doll's work at first. She felt sad. Then, the blond hair doll broke and kept talking. Finally, the girl took the first favorite doll and said, "You are still my favorite doll."

I wonder what's "still". By the way, you know a story similar to this story, don't you? Yes, "Toy Story" is so. Woody envies Buzz, the latest toy. But I think the latest toy is not necessarily fun and popular because some dolls and toys has been popular, Rika chan doll, card game and so on. They don't move or just paper. But its attract kids.

My favorite clothes -List 10-

1. Jeans
-I like jeans because it's very useful. There is much kind of jeans. I like two designs of these, "skinny jeans" and "boyfriend's jeans", in Japanese fashion magazine says so. Skinny jeans have an effect that person who wearing it looks more slender. Boyfriend's jeans are boyish. I love a cute style with it. For example, when I wear it, I often take feminine top.

2. Muffler
-Muffler is very warm. I heard on TV if you take it, you feel warm as same as you take one more clothes. So I use it everyday. Moreover, taking it enables you looks more fashionable. I recommend to use it for people especially who commute by bike or bicycle or on foot. (122 words/total: 9103 words)

SEIJINSHIKI

I attended to a coming-of-age ceremony in Tamana yesterday. "Seijin-no-hi" is second Monday in January. The day of this year is 12. At the ceremony, most girls wear "furisode". It is a one of Japanese clothes and worn by unmarried women. I have received many direct mails from Japanese clothes shops. The girls who are 19 years old will be sent it from about now. Japanese clothes are very expensive. Old people had thought it's one of their properties. It's hard for parents to prepare the furisode. I wore a purple one. Japanese clothes also take much time to wear. So girls had to wake up early. My family lent some rooms for a certain Japanese clothes shop to wear, make up and set the girl's hair yesterday. 12 girls wore furisode there. First girl and women who make up girls came 5:30 a.m.!! The make up artists had to complete all12 girls until 10:30 a.m. My turn was last. I was finished before 11:00 a.m. Their feat of agility was wonderful.
After the preparation, I went to a hall held the ceremony. There were many classmates of mine. But there were also strange people because some cities, towns and villages had been united. I took many pictures with my friends I met them after a long time. Some of them have changed but most haven't. At the ceremony, we watched a musical performance and dance done by our classmates. They were nice. After some address, the ceremony finished. I changed my clothes and went to a class reunion held in a hotel. There were my friends I had gone with them to the same junior high school. They dressed up and became grown-up. We drank, talked and ate. Suddenly my class's members were called by our teacher and handed a letter. It was the letter written by me 15 years old. When we were the junior high school students, we wrote it for me living future. I released and laughed because there was a mistaken paper written only one line. I was a hasty girl. Now, I think I have become a hasty woman. I want to be a real adult. (362 words)
