Haagen-Dazs

Last Monday, I went to Haagen-Dazs with my friends. You know, Haagen-Dazs is very delicious ice cream shop. During this term, shop has a lot of ice cream which sells only in the Autumn. So, I bought a limited ice cream. It has whipped cream and cream which taste is Japanese chestnut. I could choose an ice cream cone or cup so I chose a cone. This picture is my ice cream! Do you want to eat it, don't you?

Additionally, I got double points in my point card so I was very happy!

A local food restaurant

Last Saturday, I went to a Okinawa food restaurant with my friends. I had never been to there before so I was very excited.
When we reached there, we ordered one cocktail each other. I ordered taste of pine cocktail! It was so delicious.
Second, we decided our order and ordered 6 dishes at once. I had never eaten "Tonsoku" before. "Tonsoku" is food of pig's feet in English. I tried to eat it but I don't like it because it was very greasy. However, "Tonsoku" has a lot of collagen so if we ate it, our skin would look shinier. Therefore, "Tonsoku" is very famous and popular among the younger people.

And I'll introduce other food. For example, "Somen chanpuru", food of pig's ears. In the end of our party, restaurant owner presented us a ice cream! Of course, it was taste of Okinawa too.

After we left the restaurant, we went to cafe and enjoyed talking very long time. I had a very good day! My friends and I planed next restaurant!

Frog and Toad are friends1

~Summary~
One day, Frog ran up the path to Toad's house and he knocked on the front door. Because he wanted to wake up Toad and tell him to come spring so walk together. However, Toad refused Frog's offer and he had pulled all the covers over his head in bed. So, Frog dragged Toad to the balcony and said "What you see is the clear warm light of April. We will skip through the meadows and run though the woods and swim in the river." However, Toad said he would be too tired so he was going back to bed. Additionally, Toad said to Frog that please come back again and wake him up at about half past May. So, Frog looked at Toad's calendar and tore off the November page. And he tore off the December to April pages.
Finally, Frog ran back to Toad's bed and waked up him. He said "It is May now." Therefore, Toad looked at the calender and climbed out of bed. Then he and Frog ran outside to see how the world was looking in the spring.

~My impression~
I love this story. I have known this book series when I was a elementary school student.
I think Frog and Toad are very good friend. When I finished reading this story, I was very relaxed.
In my opinion, Frog's behavior is very nice idea. And Toad is an obedient!

Discussion1 October 8

Last Thursday, I became an audience in Integrated Skills Ⅳb class. In this class, 5 students discussed about salary for house maker in front of others. Today, I will organize summary of this discussion.

Mrs. Risa is a woman who works at the trip company. She earns her salary and she is a house maker too. Mrs. Hanako is a full-time house maker woman. She has to do a lot of housework so she can't do part-time-job. Mr. Sato is Hanako's husband and Mr. Tanaka is Risa's husband.

In this discussion, Hanako insisted that she does a lot of housework every day so the Japanese government should pay salary for house makers. She thinks that housework is one of the justifiable jobs in the society. The reason why she thinks that, she always works about four or five hours so it is same thing as Risa.

However, Risa thinks that housework doesn't have any responsibilities. Additionally, in her opinion that she does housework too so it is nothing special. Therefore she thinks the Japanese government needs not to pay salary for house maker. Mr, Sato and Tanaka agree with her idea.

Here, after they said their opinion, the chair gives one result of survey to them. According to the survey, a lot of Canadian house makers want to get salary a hundred thousand yen per month. And Mrs. Hanako wants to get the amount salary too. However, they have a problem about a source of revenue so they discussed and try to find a solution. But they can't find a good idea so I think we need to think and discuss more.

In the end of the discussion, they think that a hundred thousand yen salary for house makers is too high but they can't find a solution so their consensus is the Japanese government need not to pay salary for house makers.

I think the topic is very difficult for us but very good point. This time, we can't solve some problems about it. For example, a woman who does housework with her mother can get a hundred thousand yen salary or not and a source of revenue is from our tax or husband salary. Therefore, we should think more and find a good solution.
