Baseball Game!!

Hello, everyone. How was your weekend? I enjoyed my weekend very much. So, today, I want to tell you about my weekend.
On Sunday I went to Fujisakidai-kenei baseball stadium with my family  for watching baseball game. Recently, I'm interested in baseball, because my mother and father likes baseball, so I talk about baseball with them. Our favorite baseball team is The Fukuoka Softbank Hawks. But my favorite baseball player is belong to The Chiba Lotte Marines, so I also like that. To tell the truth, maybe my mother likes that too.
When we arrived at the stadium we surprised. Because there are a lot of people. They wore baseball team's T-shirt or uniform and they had placards or megaphones. I wanted to buy them, so I want to shops and I bought T-shirt and megaphone. I was ready for cheer my favorite team.
After that, we entered to stadium. It was very excited for me. Today's game is The Fukuoka Softbank Hawks versus The Chiba Lotte Marines. Both team is my favorite teams! I didn't  know which team should I cheer. The game was very fun and exciting, but it was cold. Because it was rain during the game. I thought that I'll catch a cold again.
The Fukuoka Softbank Hawks won the game, so I was very happy. But I was a little disappointed. Because my favorite player didn't take part in the game. His name wasn't indicated on the back screen. I wanted see him, I thought.
But after that. I felt very happy. Because I saw him out of the stadium! When we back to our car players was backing to the bus. I saw him then. I was very surprised. I didn't think that I could see him. And my gaze met his!! At the time, I could not say anything. But now, I think that why I didn't say anything for him. I'll tell you why I like the player. He looks like my boyfriend very much.
I want to watch baseball game again and I want to watch it in Fukuoka. Of curse, I want to see my favorite baseball player again too. The picture that I attached is my goods that I bought then. I couldn't buy my favorite player's goods. (379 words)

I'll tell you about my home town. I was born and raised in MInamata, Kumamoto prefecture. There is very beautiful nature, for example, there is the beautiful sea, revers, and mountains. In spring, the cherry trees are in full blossom. It is very beautiful. When you hear "Minamata", you may think of Minamta disease. But now,Minamata is undergoing reconstruction. I love mu home town.

By the way, do you have any pets? I have a dog. Her name is Maron. She is a shiba-dog. She is very cute and small, but she is a little selfish. I love her very much. If she wants to play with me, she will have her small ball in her mouth and look up to me. If you have any pets, I want to see your pets's picture. I think your pets are very lovely.

I'm also interested in leaning English. I really would like to improve my English and speak it fluently. To tell the truth, I'm a little bit nervous now, because I've never been to a foreign country before. But I'm very much looking forward to meeting you soon.

Book ReviewⅡ

Hello, everyone! This is my second Book Review. Last time, I read a revel 0 book. It was very easy for me.
This time, I read a revel 1 book. The book's title is Aesop's Fables.
 This book is called Issop Monogatari in Japanese. You know some stories of Aesop aren't you?
For example, The golden ax and The silver ax, The sour grapes, and The north wind and The sun.
Do you know that?

In the book that I read, there are 8 stories. For example, The tortoise and the hare, The fox and the crow, The mouse's tale, and The lion and the mouse. I know that stories, so these are easy for me.

But I have some impressions for stories. That are stories of moral.

My favorite moral is One good turn deserves another.
I can agree with this maral. If we do good thing for someone, maybe we become in a good mood.
When we do good thing for something we need our courage. But I think that we have to do it for become good mood.  (107 words)

Homestay In New Zealand!!

Good evening, everyone!!
Today, I went to my cousin's house after school. She lives in Hikarinomori, so I went there by train.
I had lunch there and played with her. But she had to go to swimming club, so I played with her in short time. She said me, "See you later!" before she leave her house. I want to go there again. I enjoyed it!


By the way, I wrote about my trip yesterday. I'll write now：D


In my holiday, I had been to New Zealand about a month. This was my first trip to foreign countries, so I was very nervous. My host family are very kind of me, for example if I couldn't tell my mind in English fluently, they helped me. I studied at the Unitec. My teacher and classmates are very friendly and funny!!
Every Friday, we went to sightseeing as school activity. We went to the Sky Tower, shopping, beach, museum, aquarium, riding horse and so on!! I enjoyed them.


Especially, I think that I could improve my listening skill. I wanted to improve my speaking skill, but I didn't speak English, because I was afraid my mistakes. I could understand that this is not good.


Maybe you know, New Zealand is summer now!! So it was very hot, but it was not humid. I was wearing my summer clothes in New Zealand. This is reason I caught a cold after I came back to Japan.


I had unforgettable experience. I'll visit New Zealand again.
I attach picture in New Zealand!!
