Question 5

I enjoyed this class in this semester too. I had some new experiences, presentation, podcast, and so on. Especially, I like podcast progress. I could enjoy recording my voice and posting my works. And I learned that it is not good to attach person's name and photographs. In addition I watched my friends presentation. It was very fun for me and I laughed. I also learned the natural of Aso, Amakusa and another Minnesota's attraction. I think it is very good for us. Also my typing speed was up. It owe to my practice. So I think that I want to know more about blogging, podcast, some PC techniques and so on.

On January 13th I have a special ceremony. It celebrates our 20th birthday. I met many old friends. Elementary friends, junior high school friends and high school friends. We took many pictures. On this day I got at 6. And I was set my hair, and was wore kimono (furisode). I think every one become beautiful in furisode, hakama and suit. After that I drank with junior high school friends. I talked very much. Many friends always smiled. I enjoyed very much. I want to met them again. (88)

BIG PUDDING

This is a big pucchin pudding. This has about 4 regular pucchin pudding. I ate it with my brother. When I finished eating, I was full. And I felt a little worse. But taste is good.
If you want to eat it only one, BE CAREFUL. I think you had better eat it with taking a rest!!!

William Tell and Other Stories

This book has 6 stories. They are "William Tell", "Tom Blood", "Lord Bao and the Stone", "King Matthias and Good Shepherd", "Johnny Appleseed", "Lady Godiva". I like the story of "Lady Godiva". She is the wife of king. And she said "You must stop all taxes". So all taxes make poor people. To stop the taxes, she ride naked though the streets of Coventry. She did it. So king decided to stop the taxes.

This is a present from my host mother. She made me an album!! It is the memory of MINNESOTA. I remember my American days. And I'm very happy. Thank you very much. I will treasure!!!

NABE-MOTSU-

This kind is Motsu nabe. This is my first time!!! Motsu nabe was delicious and I liked it. Motsu's taste is so good. And I like corn marigold. This vegetable smell good, but some people don't like that smell. In winter, I think nabe is very comfortable dishes. Nabe makes us warm.
