Okinawa!

This Friday, I'm going to go Okinawa with my family! The reason why I go there, my uncle will hold a wedding ceremony at the Okinawa hotel!
According my father, when I was a child, I have gone Okinawa before. However, I don't remember that because I was a child! Therefore, this time will be my first trip to Okinawa for me.
Additionally, my family haven't tripped for ages so we are looking forward to going there.

Have you ever visited Okinawa? If your answer is "Yes", please tell me a lot of nice information for me! Thank you.

In class: Sport you love/ you hate

Last class, we tolked about our favorite and dislike sports. First, I will introduce myself.
I like both doing and watching sports very much. Especially, I like plaing Badminton. The reason why I like it, when I was a junior high school student, I belonged to the club for 3 years. On the other hands, I like watching Baseball and soccor game very much. Especially, I watched almost the second WBC games and I was very excited to watch it. Additionally, I'm looking forward to watcing World Cup soccer so I hope that Japanese team qualify for the semifinal round!
However, I don't like watching Sumou because I think that the sport seems to be in pain when a wrestler is throwed. Sumou is a Japanese traditional sport but from the reason, I don't like it.

Socond, I will introduce my first partnaer, Nao. She likes watching Baseball game too. Especially, she come from Fukuoka so her favorite baseball team is of course, "Soft Bank Hawks". On the other hands, she doesn't like swimming. The reason why she doesn't like it that swimming is too cold and it is difficult for her to swim compete only time score.

Third, I will introduce my second partner, Kazue. She likes playing Badminton too. The reason why she likes it that she has belonged to the club since she was a elementary school student. She said that playing badminton needs to exercise very hard but she likes that because it is a good way for her diet!
Fortunately, she doesn't have hate sports. However, she said that she is poor playing tennis. The reason why she said that badminton form and tennis form have some difference points so it is a little difficult for her.

After this talk, I though that a lot of my classmate like sport so I hope that I play many sports with them!

Ice cream!!

Today's after school, I went to "Haagen Dazs" ice cream shop with Miyo and Yukari.

The shop has a sale every Wednesday. The sale that we can eat 7 ice creams only 500 yen! This price is very cheap because we can enjoy 7 flavors!

I often this shop with my friends or alone on Wednesday.

Today, I enjoyed Green Tea, Custard Pudding, La France, Framboise, English Milk Tea, Bitter Caramel and Vanilla Caramel Brow.

Do you want to eat ice cream? Let's go to Haagen Dazs with me next Wednesday!

My lunch!

This Tuesday, I had my mother's handmade omelet containing stir-fried rice on my lunch time. I like my mother's it so I was very happy to eat it!

This picture's character was made by ketchup. Of course, I made it myself because I wanted to have a cute lunch!

The stir-fried rice wrapped in an omelet was very delicious so I could study hard a class after the lunch.

Next week, I hope to eat it too so I will request that to my mother! And I'm going to request a lot of interesting and delicious lunch too.

Mam, please do that!!!

The Great Tulip Trade

~Summary~

Anna is a main character in this book. She loved tulips. However, in Holland in 1636, everyone loved tulips so that made them worth more than gold and diamonds!

One spring morning, Anna saw her father cutting tulips because people wanted the bulbs the most. Unfortunately, the day was Anna's birthday so she was very sad. Therefore, her father let her choose 8 tulips for Anna's birthday present.

Anna chose two red ones. Then, two yellow ones. Next, a purple one, a pink-and-white-striped one and a red one with yellow. Last, she chose her favorite tulip which was the rarest tulip of all, the Semper Augustus.

After she came back her house, she planted them in a window box.

After that a farmer came to her house and asked her trade for tulips with his sheep and cows. First, she refused the offer but she rethought that her family would please so she gave 2 tulips for the farmer.

A while later, a peddler and his wife came to her house and asked her trade for tulips with their some pots, pans and a warm wool rug. First, she refused the offer but she rethought that her family would please so she gave 2 tulips for them.

At noon, an artist came to her house with walking and asked her trade for tulips with his nice picture. When she saw it, she thought she would be able to trade so they did.

Soon a man pulled up a wagon with many furniture. The man asked her trade for tulips with his some furniture. First, she refused the offer but she rethought that her family would please so she gave 2 tulips for him.

Suddenly, a coach pulled up and a woman shouted that she wanted the rare tulip. The woman said she would give much money and jewelry so please it.

However, Anna didn't trade the rare tulip absolutely. The reason why she did, she thought that it was a gift from her father so it worth more to her than anything else.

~Impression~

I think Anna is a very kind girl because she has a sympathetic attitude. In fact, she didn't want to trade her all tulips but she thought about her family so she did.

In my opinion, it is a very difficult decision for her.

However, she didn't trade the last rare tulip. I think it is good idea because she kept her most important thing.

This book told me one important feeling.
