Baba Yaga The Flying Witch

I read this book, Baba Yaga The Flying Witch. Have you ever read it?

Today, I took writing class. And in the class, I borrowed this book from my teacher. Thank you :)
This story is interesting, but it's little strange story. Can you see its cover? This witch's name is Baba Yaga. She is a bad witch, and she always moves by her pot with wooden spoon and wooden broom. In the class, I could choose in many books. Then I chose this book because this witch's illustration was so funny.

Of course, this story is also little bit strange. She was going to eat a girl, Tasha, but she couldn't eat... Because her dog and cat betrayed her! When Tasha was shut in her hut, Tasha fed food to her dog and cat, and they helped Tasha :)

BUT!! Baba Yaga was still running after Tasha! When Tasha fed to a dog and a cat, they gave her a mirror and a comb. These could help her!! While she was running, morror became the wide river, and the comb became a big mountain. When I was reading, I thought she could help for them. But it wasn't correct. The witch drunk much water, and tried to eat the mountain! ...But her teeth made iron were rusty from drinking the wide river, so her iron teeth snapped!! It means Tasha's win :) Tasha lived with her dad happily ever after.

I like this story. It's funny story. If you're interested in the story, please read it.

My Favorite Actor and Actresses

Winter

I like a season, winter very much. Now it's very cold, but I'm okay. I like winter the best in seasons because I can have fun in the season.

When it's cold, I can eat many hot foods. You know, I like eating! So in this season, I often eat delicious hot foods :) There are another reasons why I like winter. Winter has many happy days, for example, Christmas, Happy New Year's Day and Seijinshiki. In Japan, when people become 20 years old, they are celebrated and attend Seijinshiki. Seijinshiki is like a celebration. I can meet many old friends at the celebration. Many old friends are living in places far from their hometowns. So Seijinshiki is a chance to meet them. I'm looking forward to seeing them.

In the winter, I can meet many friends, this is a reason why I like winter.

I'll enjoy this winter!

Chocolate

Do you like chocolate? I like it very much! When I entered KGU, I used to eat it every day. You know that chocolate is so yummy, but it makes people be fat. As this fact, I gained my weight when I ate. So I stopped to eat it very much, but recently, I often it very much! I don't know why. Recently, winter is coming, so it's very cold. I often drink something hot, and I come to want something sweet. I think it's a reason that I eat chocolate. I ate it again this morning. I know it makes me be fat, but it's yummy~. I can't stop to eat it!

Anyway, my computer is wrong, now. So I can't use it! I'm in a fix because I can't do my homework. I have many reports I must finish early.

Tales from Hans Anderson

I read this book, Tales from Hans Andersen. Have you read the book?
I had never read the book, I knew these stories. I think you, too.

The Ugly Ducking, The Nightingale, The Little Marmaid, The Emperor's New Clothes, Thumbelina are compiled in the book. I think you know some stories. I also knew some stories, but I didn't know some. So this time, I read the stories I hadn't known.

In these stories, I'll write about The Nightingale. Do you know the story? Nightingale is a name of kind of bird. This nightingale lived in woods. The woods were king's. The nightingale's voice was pretty, and everyone liked her sound. Of course, king, too. The nightingale often sang in the woods in day, but she must came to woods in night because her home was in woods.
One day, somebody brought king a beautiful nightingale made wood. It sang beautifully and king could listen all day and night, so king didn't call the nightingale lived in woods. Then long time after, king became ill, and he would die soon. Finally he wanted to listen nightingale's song, and he called her. Then she appeared and sang. After listening her song, king wanted to give some presents to her, but she didn't want it. Because when king first listened her song, he cried happily, nightingale was so happy that he was impressed her song. For nightingale, it was nice present. After hearing it, king died.

I became to like the story. The story has warm something. I want to listen such nightingale's song. If I listen it, I'll be happy.
Making people be happy is difficult and good thing. I can understand both nightingale and king minds. NIghtingale must had been very happy when king was impressed. And king was so happy to listen her song. I think there is a friendship between king and nightingale. It was so strong, I think. I want my children when I become a mom to know this story.

The Bluest Eye

Recently, I'm reading this book, "The Bluest Eye". Do you know the book? Toni Morrison wrote the book.

I have American Literature Class. In the class, reading three American literature is our homework. So I'm reading it, but I think this is my chance to read books. Actually, I didn't read any books recently, so this homework is a chance to read books.

At first, I began to read the book for my homework, but now, I'm reading it without an obligation to do my homework. This story is about a girl who is an African-American. This is not too old story, but in the time, many African-American couldn't work, study, make friends and live as White people do. There were racial discrimination very much. This story was in such a society.

A girl who was younger than me had became pregnant. Her dad had got her pregnant. When I knew this truth, I couldn't believe it. Why? You're her dad? I thought.

I have another American Literature Class. In the class, I watched a movie, Color Purple. This movie also describes African-American and pregnancy like The Bluest Eye.

Teacher said that it was issue in the time, but I couldn't believe that. It was strange, I thought. However as I study American literature, I became understand it. I know that I can't understand very well yet, but I think history of descrimination made this society.

I haven't finished reading the book yet. In the book, I often can't believe many truthes because these are so cruel, but I'll keep reading it. I hope that people know truths, and no more such things will happen.

I often watch this TV show every Monday. This time, one of my favorite model, Anne appeared on the TV show. She talked about a story how to study her English. She is active in the world as a model. She often visits Paris and US to audition. She needs to speak English there. So she is studying English very hard by a unique way to study .

I like her because she has a strong mind. She has only her think. I respect her as a woman. Although she likes English, she also likes Japan. She studies not only English but also old Japanese. She thinks that Japanese must read old Japanese, so now she is studying old Japanese, too. She is beautiful and so cool, and more, she can cook very much. I often read a magazine that she appeares on. On the magazine, I can see her cherm. She is cool as a Japanese and worldly model.

Weblog Report 2-1

Japanese Test

I'll take a Japanese test on Sunday. Do you know the test?

I'm taking a Japanese class. You know, I'm a Japanese. But why am I studying Japanese?? Teacher teaches us hard Japanese in the class. For example, we study about complex pronunciation, language's history and so on. If you speak or study Japanese, you know that Japanese is too hard to use it. Japanese has many proverbs, language for respect person. It's too hard to use the right word in the right place for even Japanese. Of course, me, too.

So this time, I'm studying right Japanese to speak it. But I think I'll not use these hard Japanese in my life because most Japanese can speak Japanese fluently!

I want to pass the test, so I must study more hard tomorrow. 

Rome was not built in a day!

MOBY DICK

I read MOBY DICK. Do you know the book?
I take American Literature class, and I learn about MOBY DICK in the class. MOBY DICK is very famous book in American literature. This is about whalers and a white whale, MOBY DICK's story.

Captain Ahab was a captain of a whaing ship. He lost his leg because a huge white whale, MOBY DICK ate it. Captain Ahab hated him, so he was always looking for him, and he wanted to kill him.

Ishmael was a young sailer, and he became a whaler on Ahab's ship. But he didn't know the ship's dangerous and sad future...

MOBY DICK is an adventurous story. A teacher who teaches us American literature said that MOBY DICK described America. Now, after reading it, I can understand this meaning. Only men appear in the book. There is no love, there is just adventure. There is men's dreams.

This book is so exciting story. I like this story. Please read it!
I want to read it in Japanese, and I want to watch its movie :D
