★Golf in New Zealand★

There are many famous sports in New Zealand. People imagine may rugby or cricket if they think of New Zealand sports. Of course these are very famous, but there is something interesting sport. It's golf!

Golf is played all over the world. Many golf players like golf in New Zealand. Main reason is scenery is great. Golf courses are very large. So people enjoy playing golf with seeing scene. The site has a lot of beautiful golf courses's pictures. Second, we enjoy golf at small cost. In Japan, golf is sport for rich people. But in New Zealand, for the common people. We can rent gloves, iron and so on. So we can go to playing golf empty-handed. New Zealand has proper climate to play golf. Summer is not too hot, winter is not too cold. And it is bright until about 9 p.m.

Thus, New Zealand people and also except them like playing golf in New Zealand. If you are bigenner, you can play easily. Why don't you trying to play golf!

★Jidai Festival★

Jidai Festival is held in Kyoto. It has held every year since 1895. This year (on Oct. 22) is 104 times. 12,000 people came. It is a big festival.

I explain Jidai Festival outline. About 2,000 people wear old fashion of Japan. One group dress Heian Era's clothes. And walk the road about 4.5 kilometers. It is long parade! Many people watch. Other dress Edo Era's fashion. Another dress age of Meiji ishin's fashion. They describe the age's heros and heroines. Some perform Tokugawa Ieyasu and some is Murasaki Shikibu. People watching them with imagining the era. They are very spectacular!

I am interested in Japanese History, so I want to watch parade. How about going Kyoto and watch this festival?

FANTASTIC MOVIE★

I often go to DVD rental shop and rent some DVDs. I recently watch "The Notebook" (Japanese means "Kimi ni yomu Monogatari".) It's very good movie. I was strongly impression by it.

This movie' s story is as follow: A old man reads the lovestory for a old sick woman. She is dementia (she forgets memories while she was young). She always cannot get out her sickroom but she looks forward to listening to lovestory talked by him.

The story is... There is a beautiful girl whose family is very rich. She is seventeen. One day a man meets her in theme park by accident. He likes her immediately. But she is different. She thinks he is stranger. He ask to have a date and she say "OK" unwillingly. They go to see a movie. The man Noah is very funny so the girl Allison was interested in him. They fall in love soon.

In summer time, they had a great time. But her parents know their relation. Her parents tell her not to meet him from now on. She refuses the advice. But when he find that she is in a hard lot, he decide good-bye. She is very sad and move far with her family. So, they never meet each other. But he write a lot of letters to her. However, she doesn't know. Because, her mother never shows her the letters.


Past a long time, she find him on picture at newspaper. Already, she has new boy friend, but she go to see him. They have't met since a few years. They fall in love again. They get marry against her parents. They have a very very good time together...

But, she gets Alzheimer's disease. She have no memories.

So, the old sick woman is allison. The man reading book for her is Noah. She doesn't remember him, but he read their story with believing she remember their memories. One day she remembers him and herself. They become happy. But they die on the her bed together.

It is my favorite love story. I was impressed with Noah's love to Allison. I want to see again.

Performing Noah is Ryan gosling.

Performing Allison is Rachel McAdams.

They are Canadians and they are good acter and actress!

★ NICE DIET & EXERCISE ★

(1)Diet

　Today, there is much food in Japan. For example, French, Italian, American, Chinese and so on. Foreign food tends to contain many calories. But Japanese has low calories. If always we eat Japanese food, we become to be health and we loose weight. It is good diet for our health.

　The central of Japanese food are vegetables. Japanese dishes in restaurant is difficult to cook. Because we spend much time to cook. But this site tell us how to cook easy cooking.

(2)Exercise

　Do you know Yosakoi Odori? It is Japanese dance. It is powerful and cool.

I belong to Yosaki team. To dance with team mates is very interesting for me! We smile naturally while we are dancing. It is aerobic so very hard and sweat. It is pleasant and a good exercise. So it is to kill two birds with one stone!

　In Nagoya, Yosakoi festival is held every year. Name is Nippon Domannaka Festival. Many team participate in the festival. I join it this year for the first time. I am looking forward to join very much!!

　Let's enjoy dancing Yosakoi!

Laughter

★Laugh is good for our health
People laugh when they become happy and something interesting happen. People feel stress when they work or go to school. If not laughter, people fall into a depression. When people laugh each other, they relax each other. It is very good for under a lot of stress people. Laughter affects not only mental but also physical. In fact there are people who recover from disease thanks for “Laugh Yoga.”



★ My Favorite Comedian
I like comedians. They always make me to laugh and enjoy. They perform a comic dialogue by to comedians. First, one of them says something strange like that we cannot help laughing. And another one points out that with interesting speech. People saw their performance burst into laughter. My favorite comedian is Tutorial. Their performance is fast and different from other comedian’s type. Mr.Tokui always talks funny things. Mr.Fukuda points out them so quickly. I never lose interest in their performance. That Mr.Tokui is very cool is one reason why I like Tutorial.
