~Summary~
One day, Toad and Frog went for a long walk. They walked across a large meadow, in the wood and along the river. After that they went back home to Toad's house.
Then, Toad found that he lost one of the buttons on his jacket. Therefore, Toad and Frog went back to all the places where they walked.
First, they walked back to the large meadow and began to look for Toad's button in the tall grass. Then, Frog found a black button. Unfortunately, it was not Toad's one because his button was white. So, Toad put the black button in his pocket.
After that, a sparrow flew down and he showed a button which the sparrow found to Toad. Unfortunately, it was not Toad's one because his button had four holes but that had only two holes. So, Toad put the button with two holes in his pocket.
Second, Toad and Frog went back to the woods and looked on the dark paths. Then, Frog found a small button. Unfortunately, it was not Toad's one because his button was big. So, Toad put the small button in his pocket.
After that, a raccoon came and showed a square button. Unfortunately, it was not Toad's one because his button was round. So, he Toad put the square button in his pocket.
Last, Toad and Frog went back to the river. They looked for the button in the mud. Then, Frog found a thin button. Unfortunately, it was not Toad's one because his button was thick. So, Toad put the thin button in his pocket.
At last, Toad was very angry and ran home and slammed the door. Then, he found a white, four-holes, big, round, thick button. It was his one! And he thought what a lot of trouble he has made for Frog. Therefore, he took all of the buttons out of his pocket and sewed them all over his jacket.
The next day, Toad gave his jacket to Frog. Frog felt so happy. Of course, Toad had sewed all buttons on very well so none of them fell off.
~My impression~
I think this story is very rhythmical so it is very interesting to read for readers.
It is very good point that Toad felt regretful for Frog and apologized to him.
The story has many good points in it!

An apple pie!
Last Sunday, I went to a cafe with my two friends.
The meeting time was 4 p.m. so we were little hungry. The cafe is famous for an apple pie so we ordered it each other. However, my apple pie had a little different point compared with my friends. It had a big ice cream on it! The price was a little expensive but I want to eat an apple pie with an ice cream so I ordered it.
The apple pie had some very good baked apples and apple jam between upper and under pies. It was so delicious! Of course, ice cream too.
After eating, we enjoyed talking about anything for a long time. The reason why we did that, the cafe has a relaxed atmosphere so we wanted to relax there.
So, I had a very good time there.
If you want to go the cafe, please tell me. I can teach you the place of the cafe.

Disccusion 3 Octobor 22th
Last week, we had third time discussion. The discussion's topic was "Should we pay for the ambulance, or not?" The team member were Ms.Yone, Shizuko, Kashiwagi, Dr.Shindou and the chair.
First, the chair suggested that the fare is 15,000yen. Then Dr.Shindou said that he agreed with the idea because if we pay for the ambulance, survice of ambulance would be better.
However, Ms.Yone said she disagreed with it because she often uses the ambulance. She has a regular health problem so if we have to pay for them, it is difficult for her. In additionally, Ms.Shizuko said that 15,000yen was too high so we should reduce the price. The reason why she said that she lives in a country side so it takes about a few hours to get to hospital from her country by car.
Therefore, if we have to pay for the ambulance, it is difficult for her too. So, the chair suggested that 10,000yen to the fare. Then, Ms.Kashiwagi agreed with it because she is a local government officer so the price was good for her.
However, Ms. Shizuko said 10,000yen was still expensive so we should reduce the price to 5,000yen. Expect for Ms.Yone, everyone agreed with Ms.Shizuko's idea but Ms.Yone has a lot of medical expense so she couldn't Ms. Shizuko's idea.
Then, Ms. Kashiwagi suggested that if people who use over 5 times in a year, we could reduce the price by 30%. The idea was so good for Ms.Yone so she agreed with it.
Therefore, the team's consensus that our fare is 5,000yen for the ambulance. However, people who use over 5 times in a year can reduce the price by 30%.
After the discussion, we talked about some problems and other ideas for the discussion.
Then, one of the students suggested a good idea. The idea was that the doctors can have a right to decide whether the patients should pay for the ambulance or not. Most audience agreed with the idea and of course me too.
I think if the team had deeper discussion, they could find better idea. However, this topic and discount system are very interesting idea. The discussion need to have a better society for us.

Discussion 2 October 15th
Last Thursday, we had second time discussion. The discussion team was my group.
Our discussion topic was about "No my own car day".
First, I explained the topic and a Korean example. The example that the Korean government held on "No my own car day" and got some effects. So, we proposed an idea that we try to have the campaign day all over the country once a week in Japan. This plan is that we can use all public transportation without charge on the campaign day. Our group discussed this idea and found our consensus.
First problem was about the point which is all over the country. Ms. Hirota said it is difficult for people so the government should start from all cities. Then, the government should extend to cuontries bit by bit. The reason why she proposed that she always goes to school by car because she lives in a country. So, we agreed to her idea.
Second problem was about the point which is a whole day and once a week. Mr. Shiraki said that all day and once a week is not good for people so the government should do it twice a month. His idea was good so we agreed with him.
Last problem was about the point which is twice a month. Ms. Yamada said that if we have the campaign day twice a month, it is not good for her businees. The reason why she thought, she is a public transportation worker. Therefore, Ms. Satou who is a city office worker said she could help them by gasoline tax. In additionally, Ms. Hirota gave a idea that people must pay only 100 yen for them. From these ideas, Ms. Yamada felt easy about the point of no charge.
However, Mr. Shiraki didn't satisfied because the idea doesn't think about businessmen like him. Therefore, we discuss and found an idea that if businessmen like Mr. Shiraki apply to the city office, they could use thier cars in spite of the campaign day.
Our discussion finished at this point so we asked audiences and requested some opinions. Then a few audiences gave us very good question. Unfortunately, the question was very difficult problem so our group couldn't solve it. Therefore, I thought that we should discuss too deep.
Discussion was so difficult because it was first time for me. However, I knew that we need to discuss about the topic in various aspects.

Frog and Toad are friends 2
~Summary~
One day, Frog was not feeling well so Toad said to him that Frog should get into bed and rest. Therefore, Frog followed Toad and went to a bed but he asked Toad to tell him a story while he is resting. Of course, Toad said "OK" but he couldn't come up with a story to Frog. So, he went out on the front porch and walked up and down but he couldn't come up with any stories.
Then he went into the house and stood on his head because he thought that if he stand on his head, it would help him to think of a story. However, he couldn't come up with any stories.
Then Toad poured a glass of water over his head because he thought that if he pour water, it would help him to think of a story.
Then Toad began to bang his head against the wall because he thought that if he beng his head against the wall hard enough, it would help him to think of a story. However, he couldn't come up with any stories.
Finally, Frog was feeling much better without a story but instead of him, Toad was not fooling well. Therfore, he borrowed Frog's bed and had a rest.
~My impression~
Toad is a king man because he endeavored to have a story for Frog. In the end of story, he couldn't come up with any stories but Frog must be satisfied with Toad's behavior.
I think they are veyr good friend each other.

A movie!
Last Wednesday, I went to the cinema with my two friends. The reason why we went to there on the day, on every Wednesday is "Ladies Day" so we can watch all movies only one thousand yen!
On the day, we watched "Kaizi". It is the movie's titile. The movie's main character is a slovenly man. His name is "Kaizi". One day, he has a high-interest debt. After that, story developed and Kaizi grew up with his friends.
The movie had a lot of cruel scene so I looked away from those many times. However, the story was good so I could enjoy watching it!
After the movie, we went to a restaurant. I orderd an omelette containing stir-fried rice. This picture is it. You know, it had two kinds of sauces. One was ketchup and another was cheese with black pepper. Therefore, I could enjoy eating two kings of tastes.
I had very good time in the day and I want to go cinema every Wednesday, I thoght.
A chocolate!
Tofay, I finished my class at 2:20 p.m. So, my friend and I went to lobby and enjoyed talking for a long time. We talked about each other. A few hours later, we felt a little hungry so we went to a kiosk and bought some snacks.
This picture is my snack! It is a chocolate. This character is "Baikinman". Maybe almost people know him because he is very popular character in Japan. He is an enemy of "Anpanman". Anpanman is a hero in Japanese animation so almost Japanese people had seen him before when they were children.
This chocolate was very good. Additionally, I could have a nice time with my friend.
