About favorite authors

I hava favorite authors.Once I like an auther's book,I read only its another books.
After all I almost finish reading its books.
At first,I liked Kaori Ekuni's books.The her book that I read first is story about the couple with a husband who can't love woman and a wife who addicts to alcohol.
The setting is strange,but the atomosphere is so mild.I like the atomosphere than the plot.After reading it,I read her books include her essays, I tasted the atomosphere in her books.Sadly her books become to be bad since she was famous because of getting an award.In addition to,she doesn't publish her books lately.
I hope that she rests enough and write good stories.
Next,I liked Hiromi Kawakami's books.The her book's title that I read first is "Hebi wo fumu" which mean "I tread a snake".The strange title drew me.Actually the story is mysterious.I like it and her another books.Especially I like the strange atomosphere she makes.Almost her story aren't sad nor happy.After reading,
I feel something to mild, something to relaxive.But it's sad that her strange atomosphere decrease gently in her books lately.

About reading

I watched a file named 'My Life Without Me' several years ago.
It's so impressive that I wanted to read original.
At first I looked for the original author by the Internet.Her name is Nanci Kincaid.
As the original title isn't 'My Life Without Me',Looking for was difficult.
Finally I saw that the book named 'Pretending the Bed Is a Raft' include the file's original story.I bought it.

The book have many short stories.I read a little by little,so I'm not sure that I can read what I want to read by the book yet.

But I enjoy reading this book more than I expected.Every story is intersting,and it's easy to read for me although it has many vocabulary I don't know.

If I can finish reading this book,I wonder to read her another book.

One day

I want to keep a diary by English,but it's difficult for me.

We always watch news program.

We have favorit drama series,we look forward to watch next series.

We watched a film on DVD yesterday as it rained.

We always check our e-mail when we get up and before we go to bed.

We set the alarm clock at 5:00 AM whenever we jog in the morning.

We always do the exercize and are tired, so we go to bed early time and sleep like a log.

We talk about our snoring each other.

Japanese wedding reception

I attended my friend's wedding last Saturday.
I'd like to talk about that.

At first most young people don't have any religion, but they tend to celebrate their wedding in the church.
I think that they want to swear their wedding to God although they don't have faith in God.

I don't have any religion,too.But I'd thought what the priest preach was benefitical for me till I attended last Saturday's wedding.
What he said wasn't the serman which was based on the religion but nosy peason's idea.

He bored me!
I had never had my opinion about a wedding in the church. I had my opinion that the serman wasn't benefitical then for the first time.

Anyway, my friend's wedding was good.
Before the wedding,we had to have a rehearsal,we practice singing,reading.That made her wedding holier.

I attended their reception after their wedding.

Japanese wedding reception have many strange things.
After toadt,most guests don't listen anyone's speech as they are absorbed eating and drinking.
The bride changes her dress during the reception.In my friend case,she changed her dress twice.
What they do during the reception is always same.
Their boss's speech,toast,friend's or co-worker's speech, the bride's dress change,some entertiments,children give presents for them,candle service, it's that they go the rounds of tables with putting on candles, the bride's message for her father,they give presents for their parents, groom's father thanks to guests, groom thanks to guests.
This is a typical Japanese wedding reception.

The groom and bride looked like hard and be tensed up,because I thought they invited their boss and many guests in their company.I was afraid they had a fun.

Most couples say to hold thier wedding reception for thier parents.Their parents seem to be glad that thier children hold a typical reception. Instead of that,they tend to hold a party after reception. They invite just their friend except boss,parents,relatives.So they seemto be relax and have a fun there.
I think the reception for someone is silly.

In the reception like this, guest's duty is eating and drinking.we rarely talked with the bride.
And we have another duty.their parents go the round of tables with pouring some drink.We drink it,and celebrate.

Problem of bullying

Lately the news about a lot of bullying problems are broadcasted.
Lately the news about a lot of problems of bullying has broadcasted.

I think we can't solve all bullying problems.
Because there has been bullyings evrywhere for a long time,
most children deal with it.but bullying has become more terrible lately.
It will be become more and more,I think.

So it's most important for them not to try to remove bullying, but to make a place for children to escape from bullys.

At first,we shouldn't strain at only going to school,
living is the first priority.
So we have to tell our children that they don't need to go to school
if they are victims of bullying.

Okumusashi cross-country

My doctor said to me that I may run with checking my condition.
But I'm afraid that he didn't permit me to enter the race.
As I'm complaining about myself who cancel some races,
I decided to enter Okumusashi cross-country race and not to run but to walk.

It was so cold fine weather in early morning on this Sunday.

It took an hour and half from my home to Shomaru Sta. which is the registration.

A number of runner who enter the race was 200 people.
It was small and had homelike atmosphere.
Just as I started,there was a steep path.
I had to climb the steep path.People around me had already walked,so I added them.
After walking for a while,I went along a ridge,and sometimes saw a great sigthview like under picture.

If I had enough time to find,I might see Mt.Fuji.

Then I decided torun at downhills,because the race had a limit.
I used muscle of my thighs not to injure my heel again.
Downhills were so steep,but I felt so good when I could run down quicker.
For running the downhills quicker, I had to find the route instantly.
There were fallen lieves on the path,so the path was beautiful but it was easy to slip.
Running downhills is challenging as contrasted to need strong muscle and stamina for running uphills.

Volanteers were so kind.I ate fruits and sweets at Aid.


The distance of the race is 17km.It had many up-down hills from start to 10km point.
Finally I finished after I ran down the road left.

While running, I walked ,ate something and took pictures.So the record was bad for me,of course.
Honestly I frustrated that I couldn't run completely,but I hope to run completely next year.

DeathNote2

I think it more intersting than I read last one.
This is the brain fighting.This excite me.
I understand the story plot by seeing pictures,but I don't sometime understand details.
For example,
* I guess women being tough in crisis goes for human,too.
・・・I suppose to understand the meaning, but I can't express.
* I didn't stick around to make sure.
・・・I moved around to make sure.
* you've made a bold move.
・・・bold = strong = brave
* I'm almost positive you were in contact with one of them.
・・・I'm almost sure you were in contact with one of them.
* Now the FBI's pissed off.
・・・the FBI's got angry.
* We don't have faith in L.
・・・faith = believing, "faith" is used about things we can't see.
* How lethal could it be?
・・・
* KIRA can kill people using means other than heart attacks.
・・・means=way
* He made me swear I wouldn't mention this.
・・・swear=promiss
* your deduction is based on facts known only to you.
* your testimony will mean a lot to the task force.
