The video of Thailand


Although a country which I really want to go is Indonesia, there is no video about Indonesia. So I will introduce about Thailand. The reason why I chose Thailand instead of Indonesia is Thailand is very similar to Indonesia and the second country which I want to go is Thailand.


This video is telling about temples and royal palace. In Thailand, most these buildings are golden so it looks very gorgeous. I like such sacred places. Therefore if I go to Thailand, I really want to visit to temples and royal palaces. And I do remember to dress conservatively or wear the long sleeves and long pants while I am visiting temples and royal palace.


In the video, a lot of food stands are also appeared. I also want to try to eat local food which is sold at stands, if I go to Thailand. But if I try to do so, I need to understand that there is a possibility to get food poisoning!!

School for handicapped children

Hello, Caleb!!

Last Thursday and Friday, I went to a school for handicapped children because I am taking a teaching course now. Before I went to the school, I really worried about whether I can get along with students or not. But in fact, every students were kind to me and they seemed to open themselves to me soon. Teachers were also very kind, so I could have a good laboratory. Although I went to the school as a teacher, I learned many things from the students. Through getting contact with them, I can spend a meaningful time.

At first, I did not have enough knowledge of handicap, but this experience makes me know a lot of things about handicap. And also I was interested in the field of welfare. After the laboratory, I felt that I could broaden my horizens. I want to turn my experience to advantage in my future.

World Cup Soccer Japan vs Denmark

Hello, Caleb!!

Last Thursday, I went to the sports bar to watch World Cup Soccer, the game of Japan vs Denmark on TV with my friends. The sports bar was full of people who wear a uniform of Japanese team. Because my friends and I did not wear the uniform, we were completely drifted away from the other people.

At first, though people cheered individually, if one Japanese player reached the goal, they gathered, yelled and jumped together. I could not join it because I was really overwhelmed. At that game, Japan reached the goal three times, so people at the bar also jumped three times. Although I could not join the jumping even one time, it was really fun for me just to watch such a scene. Finally, Japan won the game and I felt that I could become good friends with everyone at the bar through watching the game.

Eventually, my friends and I left the bar at 6:00 a.m. It was really hard for me to attend the class on that day. If I go to a sports bar again, I will select the day which have no classes.

Fireworks!!

Hello, Caleb!!

Yesterday, I shot off fireworks with the members of the club which I belong to. We assembled at 6:30 at Tsurugamine station. And we arrived at destination at 6:40. But it was still light so we waited until the sky gets dark. Eventually, we waited 50 hours and started at 7:30. I felt so sorry to have everyone wait so long time because I was a person who designed this plan. We enjoyed shooting off many kinds of fireworks as we talked. And some other people joined us a few hours behind time so we warmed up more!!

After we dismissed, I received many thankful e-mails. I sincerely thought that it was good for me to design the plan of fireworks.

Movie Review

Dreamgirls

In 1962, the vocal group which name is "The Dreamettes" from Chicago, performs a show in Detroit with dreaming to be famous. The Dreamettes is formed by Deena Jones, Lorell Robinson and Effie White who is a lead singer. In the same day, the Dreamettes meets a man whose name is Curtis. He presents himself as the Dreamettes' new manager and makes the Dreamettes back chorus of a R&B singer Jimmy. One day, Jimmy and the Dreamettes get a chance to sing at a hotel in
Miami. But it end in failure because of Jimmy. This failure makes Curtis angry and cold-hearted Curtis sell Jimmy to a hotel in New York. After that the Dreamettes changes their name to "The Dreams". This means that Curtis decide to launch out the Dreams alone. And also he decide to change a lead singer to Deena from Effie. Effie is wounded heart. Then the Dreams become very famous. Especially, Deena is hold the spotlight. Effie soon has bad condition and frequently she is absent from a performance. One day, Effie recovers and she goes to dressing room of the Dreams. Then she notice something is strange. There is a new member whose name is Michelle instead of her. In 1972, the Dreams has become international star. On the other hand, Effie is back to Chicago and she is singing for a living. But eventually she decide to try her best again. The song of Effie is in the charts and Curtis knows it. After that he lowers the ranking of Effie and makes the Dreams be in charts with offering bribe. One day, Effie and lawyer come to the concert of the Dreams to bring an accusation against him. At that time, Effie and Deena meet each other after a long separation. Although they have had a mountain of difficulties, finally, they get back their friendship. At last, the story come to the emotional climax.

This movie contains a lot of scenes of singing. Of course, Beyonce who is acting Deena has a good singing voice, but I think that the singing voice of Jennifer Hudson who is acting Effie is more wonderful!! When Deena and Effie become reconciled, they sing duet in the movie. This song was so powerful and beautiful so I was very impressed. I would love for everyone who have never watched the movie to listen to this song. However I saw the musical of Dreamgirls too because I really like this story. Dreamgirls is influential for me that much. Anyway, this is a touching movie. Even if you don't like music, you can enjoy enough watching this movie. I really recommend you to watch it!!

The place which I live in

Hello, Caleb!!

I am planning on shooting off fireworks with friends at the end of this month. So last Saturday, I searched the best place to shoot off fireworks.

First, I tried to search it in Tsurugamine because I am living in Tsurugamine now. Then I found a good park near my house. The park was silent and overgrown with weeds. I wondered why I did not know such a good place though I have been in Tsurugamine for one year. Then I noticed that I have hardly ever went outside. I think probably there are plenty more of good places. So I decided to go outside more as much as possible.

However, I am looking forward to shooting off fireworks!!
