Diann's seminar

In my university, we have to choose the "room"(like seminar? Every professor has their own field and room. ) in line with the theme of our graduation thesis at third grade in our university.
I decided to enter Diann Rimmer’s room. She is Australian and her field of expertise is “Intercultural Communication”. I’m interested in global communication, so decide to enter her room.
Today is first lesson for her room.
From about 2 o’clock to five, members of her room, including me chatted about some topics with Diann, It’s so fun, but I also really feel the poor of my English ability.
In particular, I couldn’t express what I really want to say in English and they made me feel stress and bitterness…. I have to study English harder than ever and want to be better at speaking English.

Today's Movie

Today, I will introduce the movie "schindler's list" released in 1993 to you.
"schindler's list" is based on the true story of Austrian industrialist Oscar Schindler,who harbored Polish jews during World War Ⅱ by using them as workers in his factory. Schindler saved about 1,100 jews from certain death.
The film was distributed by Universal Pictures and directed by Steven Spielberg. For your information, It is said that Spielberg didn't receive the salary as a director. Running time for the film is about 3 hours, so this film is devided into two disks.
It featured holocaust, so there are many cruel scenes where the Nazis abused and murder a lot of jews..
This film has impressed at a huge number of people including me and been one of the classics still now.

I'd like you to see this premier movie!

The Hot Cake Party!!

Hi! Tamari(one of my friends)!!

Today, I had the "hokkeppa"(it means hot cake party) with friends from college at my house.
To begin with, we made many hot cakes!
Can I get the recipe? Sure!

[Ingredients for hot cakes recipe]
・hot cake mix on the market
・some milk
・some eggs
・some syrups, whipped cream, chocolate, cream cheese, tabasco(if desired)
[cooking directions]
in a bowl, combine egg and milk. add to hot cake mix. stir until smooth. cook on a hot,grased pan.(if not,takoyaki machine is the best for cooking) Thats all. Wow! It's so easy!! How did it taste? The cakes tasted very good!! Particularly, I liked the cream cheese the best!Would you like a taste? Sorry, we finished eating!!
Nextly, we saw "suberanai hanashi" . In the DVD, some famous comedians tell their funny stories(suberanai hanashi) to other members. participants include top comedians Miyagawa,chihara Jr,suteteko hacchi and others.
All of the stories were very funny,so we had a very comfortable time! I'm looking forward to having next party!!
Good Bye!!

the OC

My recent favorite american TV drama is "the OC".
What's the story like? Some highschool students live in the high-class residential area called "orange county" play out their very exciting and annoying school life and come through full of roller coaster life.
Each character has their own charm point.
ryan:he is cool and smart guy! look a little like ucchan(japanese famous comedian)

marissa:she is so beautiful and cute. In the drama, she wore many flashy clothes and did a lot of islam dance,but her sweetness can cover all of her behaviors.
the cast also features lachel billson as summer, peter .... and i don't remember....

Anyway , you must see this drama! I have quite confidence that every young people will certainly have an allure for this exciting TV show!

too cold...

Lately, it's too cold! i don't feel like going out, even to school. but it can't be helped because it is natural phenomenon.. Although You say "so, wear a lot of clothes not to catch a cold!" , but I don't have any clothes which protect me from the severity of the winter. So I have to buy the clothes like keep me warm every time.
Which choice is the best? patagonia? north face? karrimor? or another down-jackets? but it's too costly to buy for me.. It cost about 30000 yen to buy one, so i have to do part time job for buying the long-cherished down-jacket of Patagonia. I will do my best for patagonia.

Only two months before,  I was sure that I'm going to go abroad to study English in a year, but....now, to bring it all down to earth, studying abroad is not so easy and very difficult. To make it come true, I need to solve some tasks.  <BR> First step: meeting with my supervisor about studying abroad        CLEARD<BR>Second step: hsnding in some forms for  requesting for studying abroad.      CLEARD<BR>Third step:   taking the TOEFL test and pass and meet the standard       UNDER CHALLENGED<BR><BR>I have only two chances any more....   God only knows if  i can go clear the step or not .

what is need to be a leader?

<P>When I took the TOEFL test,  this kind of question was asked to me....  I didin' t haave idea what is need for a leader the most ..<BR>Firstly,I think the most important thing for a leader is sharing some ideas with other members... Being a leader means leading people and acting on behalf of everyone,  so leaders must act appropriately for leaders and keep getting my temper under control. What is the appropriate act? <BR>There are two  things of that. the first thing is the courage to everything.  </P>
