ENGLISH JOURNAL - November



English is differ from country to country.
Oceanian English is differ from American one like pronunciation, Vocabulary and Grammar, and it's close to British, because British established many colonies in south Atlantic and they implanted British English. It's said that characteristic English appeared in Austrian in 1830's, and in New Zealand in 1860's.
I got interested in Oceanian English, so I borrowed it in the library. I read it and listen to CD, so I found that it's quite differ! In America, they will say '' Don't worry'' but in Austria, ''No worries''. That's interesting! So, I tried to listen it, but it's very faster, so I cannot listen exactly...
Also, I found interesting topic article ''Point of improvement of English ability'' Mr. Seamus Fagan who is the chairperson of English Austral is said that the students who are more adventurous with language tend to do better. Adventurous students mean they easily make friends, and are talkative. So, I think, talking English with positive attitude is very important for me. When talking to foreigner in my school, I get narvous... So, I was often said ''relax''.
Above all, I must get rid of such tension...

All about my keitai

Today, we obsolutely have our own ''keitai'' even if we were children, and naturally I have one, My keitai is pink and softbank's, and I use it everyday. It has a lots of function, like not only sending e-mails but listening to music, taking photo, and something like that. It's very convinient, because I can contact with my friends at any time anywhere, and it gives me entertainment as I said. I often use Internet, and I preserve favorite music and photo which I search, and then exchange it with my friends.
However, I must remember if I use it so much, it gives me waste of time and money.

Crash


Crash is a movie which drive us to thinking of a circle of people describing racial discrimination in the World.
The most impressive character was Hansen and Raian. The movie didn't finish only Hansen was a good-natured person and Raian was villain[bad person], which gives true message for us.
Raian had a discrimination for blacks, I think, he didn't like rich blacks who not knowing his father. However, He helped black woman not caring his lives. On the other hands, Hansen was reluctant to work with him, 'cause he was a racism, but Hasen killed others with his stereotype, discrimination.
Every human being will not be a good person or bad person, 'cause we have discrimination for others in the bottom of our heart. We recognize others with our stereotypes. Its bring about misunderstanding and Crash between people and people. I mean, there is not true good person and bad person.
However, I felt not only its but also human hearty, I mean, human is egotistic but we helped each other with crashing. Sometimes, we wound others and we are afraid of being wounded by others, but we cannot live without circling of people.

Surely, in our world, full with discrimination, we are not same, some people lives with plenty but others not, but I think, crashing each other with hate, sorrow or anger, we learn something and we can help each others. We have hearts with not only discrimination but hearty for others.
The ending with lovely snowing scene gives us hope for the world.

So, a new student Yoshi from Tokyo in Japan hit on good idea, Karate. He asked them to join him, and he throw her! Then, she changed her mind, and his class became peaceful and friendly.

Using the computer, good points and bad points

Computer is a necessary tool for modern society, but it has both good points and bad points.
For example, it has 2 good points. One is we can get easily various information which we need at any time. The other is it makes business more efficiency. We can make document or postcards and we can contact with trading partner soon. However, sometimes it's dangerous tool for us especially children. It has various bad information for them. Also, some people use it for a long time, so they have less time to talk to their family.
We must remember it has not only good points but also bad points. We must careful of bad information.

Movie Essay Titanic


I'm going to write about my favorite movie, Titanic. It was a touching love story with a background of a loss of Titanic in 1912. The Director is James Cameron, and the Release date is 20 December, 1977. It won 11 Oscars and another 76 wins & 48 nominations. It's very famous movie as you know. The main cast is Leonardo DiCaprio. He played Jack Dawson who was poor and wanted to be a artist, and Kate Winslet played Rose Dewitt Bukater who was rich girl in the upper classes. They're being loved each other... Now, Rose becomes 100 years old and she talk about their love story in Taitanic.
In 1912, Jack won a bet and he got a ticket of Taitanic which go out maiden voyage from Southampton harbor in the United Kingdom. Rose is also bored, and her mother(Farances Fisher) forced her to marry Caledon(Billy Zane) who was capitalist, so she tried to jump off from the prow of the ship, and then, it was Jack that helped her. They fell in love.
However, Caledon made a false charge against him, because he noticed Rose loved Jack not him. He put handcuffs on him and confines to the cabin. Moreover, the ship clashed against the iceberg. The passanger gave priority to women and children, but she went back to ship to help him. They waited for rescue in the cold sea. I watched many passanger died, so I was shocked by the scene. Rose was rescued by Jack's help but at last, Jack was dead...
Rose survived, but she lost her lover. She will love him forever. It's really bitter love story, so I always felt sad after watching it, but I think it's the best love story.
In additon, I like this theme song'' My heart will go on''It's a very beautuful song, isn't it? It makes the movie more sad..
I hope you watch it again! I will cry even if I watch many times.

And then, After finishing, she told about it Hannah, and she went into the room knowing first question.

On Monday afternoon, she was phoned that she was reserve for the programme. She was really disappointed, and it was telephoned again, which is from Mark and said '' She is a winner'' She telephoned her and Hannah said ''Thank you, and them I'm sorry...''

I turne my face red and shake my voice when doing it. So, I want to improve it though this class.
One of the most difficult classes is physics, because I don't like scientist and I didn't learn physics when high school, but I must do my best for the test in this semester. [140 words]

My bad eating habit is that I eat snacks between meals, because I'm hungry after school so, I want to eat some foods like sweets, something junk food. I love it, but I know it's bad for my health, because it contains a lot of sugar, oil and salt, so I must bread it!

LOST IN NEW YORK


I read LOST IN NEW YORK.

The story is that an English boy; Nicky visited to New York for the first time by himself. He's going to meet his aunt Carrie at the airport, but she wasn't there. Then, for a while, a man; Lou picked him instead of her, but he strayed in New York from him. Also, he met some bad boys riding on motorbikes, and he was thought thief by police. That seems to be a bad dreams for him!

While reading, I felt sorry for him, because everybody must be afraid of being alone in such a big place like New York and he's still a child, so I thought he really must be feel anxious.

However, finally, he could wake up such a bad dream. One driver took him to Pier 83 where was often his aunt; Mrs. Minerva and he could meet her, but Mrs. Minerva was just a monkey! She's Lou's monkey! His bad dream was ending happily.

I never have lost in foreign countries, but I thought experience which lost in other countres or travel to by oneself makes us strongger. I wanna travel alone and more strongger.

Hello, everyone!!Today, I have no classes, but I went to school, because I'd like to hear about short-term study abroad at 12:15 in 424 class room. There are about 25 students and I guessed they're almost 1 grade?? and we could hear from 2 student; one is comes from New Zealand, the other is senior who have experienced study and they told us about New Zealand, university, he said there is really beautiful and university is very very big. I think New Zealand is good atmosphere to study English, but I'd like to learn not only English but Business, so I try to apply in Liverpool university in U.K. where I can learn business English. Unfortunately, I could not hear about that from exchange students from Liverpool.

After that, I went to library and I borrowed ENGLISH JOURNAL, because this book is worth reading for me! I mean I'm not good at talking English and the topic of this book in this month is '' real reason that you cannot talk to English. This book is just for me ,exactly ... I red briefly in the library and I found 1 reason which I cannot talk. I'm always afraid of making mistakes and I often care about accuracy, so I cannot talk to a lot of imformation. What I need to do is positive attitude when talking English. I'll practice from NOW!!

GIRL against the JUNGLE -book review

I read '' GIRL against the JUNGLE. It was a story that a girl live in gungle of South America.
It was Christmas Eve that Suzanne fell in the gungle airplane crash. She lived in gungle for ten days.
She strayed from her mother, she survived only there. Nobody was there.
I was really moved by this story. How she was a lot of pain, how she was so hungry.
The gungle was really dangerous. Perhaps an alligator will shut her, perhaps Jaguars will emerge.
However, she never gave up. She tried to find a way home remembering her parents words. Her parents had taught her a way of surviving gungle because they had lived in gungle. If I were her, I would cry with pain and scare. Also, I didn't know the way
Then, at the end of the story, she was helped by young Indian hunters.
She could met her fahter, and she said'' Father I'm sorry. Mummy was next to me in the plane, but...'' She had been worry of her mother. She was alive, but she lost her dear mother , and she heard her little bird Pepe was dead too. It was a first time that she began to cry.
This book made me think of life. Some people were dead of unexpected accident even if they wanted to live. We must cherish our life and accident shouldn't happen absolutely.

The Drive to Dubai -book review


I chose the Drive from English Garden, because it's new book and looks interestiong, but it's not interestiong but serious. Actually, I can't understand all of the sentence and a little difficult story, so I cannot explain story definately.

Kareen is a university student, and he loved Smira from rich family. His father id hard worker, because he wanted to succeed in his job. Nobody works hard as him and at last he could be promoted to important section. His family was really happy. However, misfortune happened, the occurrence made them unhappy. His fahter was arrested on suspition of theft in spite of he's not a theft. Then, it spoiled his marriage with Samira, because her father changed his mind and could not approve of it. Also, everbody avoided contact with them.

I was really irritated with its story. Why one innocent man was aressted? I felt frustrated.

After that, he decided to find a real theft. He asked many people who works with fahter and pretended cleaner. So, at last he found a real theft.

I don't like this story. I'm weak on reading detective story.

Anyway, I was reliefed that his innocent could be proofed

the Holiday - film review


Hi, everyone! How do you spend in your weekend? I spent it in watching film: the Holiday.

I expect almost everybody already watched it, so what was your feeling about it after watching?
I was inspired courage, and I felt it's a lovely film. Amanda[Camerondiaz] is rich and a little egotistic, but somehow I like her character, so cute and cool! I like her wearing clothes. On the other hands, Iris is innocent and very kind, but she was hurt by broken heart. I like both. They're only wish to be happy, I know their feelings. I felt if I wish to change my life, take acton is important. If they did not exchange their home, they're still not happy and they could not met belove. Take action, that's really important!! We can change our life with courege.
I like both film, in her shose and the Holiday, but the Holiday is much better as love romance film , I thought.
I wished to excange home with someone, it's seems to be interesting. I wished I lived Amanda's LA home! it's so large and luxurious!
I appriciated it both American English and British one with caption, but ctually, I cannot make a clear distinction^^;
Anyway, it's really lovely, cute and happy romantic film. I'm sure almost everybody like it.
