My part time job
I have a part time job. I work in a Japanese restaurant. I can learn the many manners there. For example, how to behavior in a tatami-room, make shochu, speak to guests and so on. Shochu is Japanese liquor. I don't know almost manners. So I often fail. I was advised by a mistress, today too. I held out a dish to a guest from left behind by my right hand. It is wrong. When I hold out a dish from left behind, I have to use my left hand. The reason is clear. You will be able to understand if you image the situation as a guest. If a waiter hold out a dish from left behind by right hand, you will have to avoid to right. My working place's dinner is a full course. So if I hold out dishes by the wrong ways every time, the guest have to avoid me every time the dish come and may feel nasty. I have to care. A converse case is same. When I hold out from right behind, I have to use my right hand. I have been having this part time job. I wish that many guests who I have served didn't feel nasty by this wrong service. (210words)

Essay 2 -My Treasure-
My treasure is my family. I have parents, one sister and one brother.
My mother is a blunder. But she always does her best for our family. When I was a high school student, she came to my school suddenly. She came in the schoolhouse and arrived at my classroom barely. I behaved chilly for shame. She brought a vessel and a letter. She handed me it and went home. The letter was written as follows. “Dear Yoko. I’m sorry. Some shrimps in a today’s lunch box tasted wrong. I found it after you went to school. I’ll bring some meat in place of it. Please forgive me.” Everyone I told this said, “Your mother is great.” I think so, too. She will help me whatever may happen.
My father is an office worker. He commutes Hakata everyday by a limited express. He has to wake up early. He makes own breakfast himself and goes to office alone. But he never complained. Moreover, he does housework. He often helps my other cleaning on holiday. He is not only a good husband but also a good father. He says. “I will always be able to die if my children graduate a collage.”
My sister works in a home for the aged. I respect her because she is a hard worker. She studied while working and passes a state examination. She became be able to serve for an old person better. Now she goes to graduate school while working. She has studied welfare. She sometimes takes me to lunch or dinner or a cake shop despite she is busy. I respect her as one person, to say nothing of as my sister.
Older brothers love their younger sister generally. My brother does, too. He works in Fukuoka. He hardly goes home. When he called me, he wouldn’t ring off. But he is sometimes strict about my charge of my cell phone or studying. I can try hard then because I’m usually spoilt by him. My sister is older than I 8 years. My brother is older than I 6 years. I am youngest in my family. So, other family members talk to me as they talk to child still now. I don’t like it. But I never said so them because they never despised me. They talk to me with love. I can understand it because I treat my pets as child. (400words)

After we arrived at Aso, we went to convenient store at first to read a travel magazine and decide where to go. We entered LAWSON. There many houses looks like Europe’s in Aso. LAWSON in Aso is same to my surprise. This picture is LAWSON in Aso. This is different from KGU’s one clearly. After we read a magazine, we went to Shirakawa-Suigen because we had felt hot. This is a famous source in Aso. There were a lot of people. Despite the source is near the houses, the source looks like a strange world because the forest has surrounded the source. There was very cool. We took some water. Before returning our car, we took a walk around the forest. There were some houses. They had a stone wall. So, the area looks like Okinawa. But it was different from Okinawa I could see Mt. Aso behind the houses. There were many interesting view in Aso. Next, we went to Kusa-senri. It is grassland in a highland. A view from there was wonderful. I could see very small houses below. I couldn’t see the cars because they were too small. There were many people.

Book Review 1-2
I read a book of "Orca”. This story is about a friendship between a couple and a killer whale. A certain couple and their friends have been sailing around the world. They helped a baby killer whale on their way. When they wrecked and a wife of the couple disappeared, the baby killer whale’s family helped her. It is good story. I love animals except for insects and reptiles. But I had thought killer whales are brutal before I read I read this book. Therefore, I researched about killer whales.
We think killer whales are brutal. But they almost don’t kill the other animals they don’t need. “A brutal killer whale” is human’s wrong image. I think we had this image because killer whales eat various things and they are in the top of a food chain. Everyone is afraid of a strong existence. If you want to know about killer whales more, please in this address. (157words)

Book Reaview1-1
To tell the truth, I read a book written in English for the first time. I chose a thin book. I chose "Mystery in London".This book is a mystery as a title. I could choose a way I want as a detective. For example, when a murder case happened, I could ask some questions to a person who I want from four persons. It's interesting. I took a detour. But I could solve this murder case after all. This story is about a murder case in 1898. It is 110 years ago. I could feel this period's London by some pictures. This book's pictures are real. I have heard that winter weather in London is often cloudy. I think London is tasteful. I want to go to London and actually see for myself if London's winter is often cloudy. (138words)
