My favorite movie is "The Magic Hour". This movie was directed by Koki Mitani in 2008. A lot of famous Japanese actors appear on this movie, for example Koichi Sato, Satoshi Tsumabuki and Eri Fukatsu. This is comedy, so it is funny!! When I watched it in a theater, I laughed through the whole movie.

Noboru Bingo flirted with Mari who is a lover of mafia's boss. One day, he promised the boss to save his life that he takes the hit man of legend, "Dera Togashi". But he can't find Dera Togashi! By the way, what do Noboru do next?
Koki Mitani is the famous scenario writer and director in Japan. All of his movies and dramas are so funny! I like "The Wow-Choten Hotel" and "Once in a Blue Moon", too. I want you to watch them!!!
This blog is the work of the Freshman English Communication class at the University of Shimane. This is a learning blog, so there are bound to be errors, confusion, and occasional misunderstandings. This is all part of the process... This is the first time for many of these students to write in English for anyone other than their teachers, so please be kind. ;^)

New Year's Eve and New Year's Day
My favorite holiday is New Year's Eve and New Year's day. I look forward to coming the day every year.
I always stay at home with my family. In New Year's Eve, we take a bath in early time and watch TV, eating snacks, new year dishes and mikans for example "Kouhaku" which is a singing contest between a mail and a female team of popular singers, a lot of variety shows and so on. Usually, Japanese people eat buckwheat noodles at midnight, but we eat Udon every year, because I like it! And we celebrate the New Year. Then I sleep at 3 or 4 o'clock.
In New Year's day, I get up at 9 o'clock in the morning and go to my grandparents's house. My family and I eat "Zoni" which is soup containing rice cakes. It is good. And we like it. After the breakfast, my grandparents and parents give me New Year's gifts. I'm happy...! New Year's Eve and New Year's day have a lot of happy things, so I like them. What do you do on New Year's Eve and New Year's day?

My University Life...!
I would like to introduce my university life.
I live in dormitory with my friends. I always talk with my friends about many many things. I love this time!
I get up 7:40 in the morning. It is early for me to get up 7:40... I want to sleep more!
I have a lot of class in each week. I think that it must not sleep in the classes, but I become sleepy during classes... My favorite class is Korean class. I have never felt sleepy in this class only. It is difficult to study Korean, but it is interesting. I want to study more and speak fluently.
There is my university in Hamada, Shimane. It is rural. The shops in Hamada close too early. It is inconvenience for me... But I like there because there are a lot of beautiful scenery.
There is no sea near my parent's house, so I'm happy to sea every day!
I can live a full time!!

Korean Culture Club
![]() | |
| My Favorite Korean Band, CNBLUE |
In the club, I and other members of this club study Korean, watch movies and dramas, cook Korean foods and so on. In this summer, we cooked Gimbab which is Korean vinegared rice rolled in dried laver and Bulgogi which is Korean dish of grilled beef. They are yummy! In the other day, we go out and talk with students studying abroad of Korea using Korean. Now I have interchanged mails with them. All of activities are good and enjoyable. I want to learn Korean culture more and more!!
To be honest with you, I want to belong to volleyball club. When I was a elementary school student, I belonged to volleyball club for four years. I like playing it. Recently, I don't play sports at all. So, I want to play sports! So, I want to belong to it.

My Hometown Kyoto
Hello!!
I'm from Kyoto. So, I would like to introduce Kyoto to you. Kyoto is my hometown.
I live in Hamada in Shimane now, where my university is, but I was brought up to 18 years old there.
Kyoto has a lot of temples and shrines including some world heritages, for example Kinkakuji, Ginkakuji, and Kiyomizudera temples. Have you ever been there? All of them have their own histories. They are great and beautiful spots. I love history and historic spots. So, I'm so happy that there are a lot of temples and shrines in Kyoto.
Kyoto is a beautiful city and we can see fine scenery. In spring, we can enjoy seeing cherry blossoms in various places. In autumn, tree leaves turn red, yellow, orange, or purple. We can enjoy such beautiful colored leaves. It is wonderful. I think that people who have never seen them should visit Kyoto once.
And Kyoto has many special foods, for example Yatsuhashi confectionary, tsukemono pickles, kyoyasai vegetables, and so on. They are delicious and very popular among people. We can eat delicious foods anywhere in Kyoto. Although Kyoto is not as urban as Osaka and Kobe, it is very good. It is good for me to be moderate.

It is the nicest to visit there. Please come to my hometown, Kyoto!!

My Family and My Hobbies
Hello! My name is Sachiho Kitamura. I'm 19 years old. I'm from Kyoto. Kyoto is very beautiful place.
There are 4 people in my family. Both of my parents are teachers. My father is a English teacher and my mother is a school nurse. My father is always busy. He comes back late almost all day. In his free time, he always read English newspapers and books or prepare the next classes. My mother is strict. She is worried about me too much because she is a school nurse. I'm tired of worrying from her sometimes, but I love my father and mother. My younger sister is a high school student. She belongs to beach volleyball club. She plays it from morning to night everyday. So, she can't go out anywhere. In the future, I want to travel with her.
My hobbies are cooking and studying Korean. In my free time, I often cook recently. To be honest, I don't like cooking before, but I am gradually interested in it. On last weekend, I made cookies and chocolate cake. They are good! I want to become good cook. Would someone show me the recipe of delicious foods?
I like studying Korean, too. I don't like studying, but I'm interested in Korean because I like K-POP and Korean dramas. My most favorite group is CNBLUE. It is a Korean band. There are 4 people in this group. They are so cool! I listen to music of CNBLUE everyday. In the future, I want to visit Korea. Then I want to speak Korean fluently. So, I study it everyday.
I have few hobbies now, so I want to have more bobbies...!
Thank you.
