BR1-14: Androcles and the Lion


I read a book, “Androcles and the Lion”.

A long time ago, there was a poor man whose name is Androcles. He was so kind. At rich man’s house he worked hard. The rich man is Brutus. Androcles was like a slavery of Brutus. Brutus never paid Androcles, but gave him one piece of dry bread a day. One night, Androcles ran away and went into the forest. He was afraid, because it was dark and spooky in the forest. Suddenly, he heard a loud noise from behind a bush. When he looked behind the bush, there was an enormous lion, Leo. He was surprised at it and ran. The lion, however, didn’t run after him. There was a thorn in its paw. Androcles pulled out the thorn. From then, they were best friends. They lives together. One morning, Androcles saw a soldier. The soldier looked for Androcles. Androcles was found and taken to Rome. Androcles didn’t know a reason why he was taken to Rome. They arrived at a big round building. It’s the arena. Androcles was locked in a prison with a man whose name is Marco. Marco told Androcles that they had to fight the lions in front of spectators. They couldn’t sleep that night. The next afternoon Androcles was taken and stood in the middle of the arena. There were a lot of spectators there. The lion got closer him. The lion was Leo. They hugged each other. The crowd couldn’t believe it. The Emperor admired Androcles. The Emperor set Androcles, Marco and Leo free. They left Rome and started their own show.

Actually there were things such as this story in old Rome. I learned about it when I was a high school student. However I can’t believe it.

RAINY...

This morning, my mother told me that I talked in my sleep in English! I was surprised at it. I don't remember the content of my dream. When I heard that, I felt happy.

The rainy season has set in. Do you like the rainy weather? I like not only the sunny weather but also the rainy weather. On the rainy day, however, there are a lot of puddles at KGU and it is hard to walk along the road avoiding the puddles. I think seriously about buying a pair of boots. When I buy a pair of boots, I'll show you it.

BR1-13: Hamlet


I read the book, "HAMLET". As you know, this story is so famous. It was written by Shakespeare. In the class of an introduction to English literature, we learned about him. We watched the movie of his work, "Romeo and Juliet" in the class. "Romeo and Juliet" is sweet love story, but "HAMLET" is the story about human vengeance. Please read it.

BR1-12: Butterflies


I read a book, "Butterflies".
Of course, this book tells us about butterflies. It gives the details of the way butterflies grow. The pictures of imagoes are beautiful, but the pictures of caterpillars aren't. I don't like caterpillars!!! This book is so good for children from an educational standpoint. I would like to make my child read.

About my keitai

When I was 13 years old, I had my parents buy a cell phone for the first time. My present cell phone is the forth one. I have used it for about a year. It is DOCOMO's cell phone, N-04A. DOCOMO collaborated with amadana, the bland of design consumer electronics, and designed N-04A. Satoko's and Asaki's are also the same type of cell phone. Their cell phones are black and my cell phone is pink. I like the design, but it is sometimes wrong. I would like to change if I can.

Quickpost

A few days ago, I recorded my voice. This is the first recording. I took mistakes so many times, so I challenged so many times. When I first listened to my voice, I felt strange:> I heard my voice as if it were not my voice. Please listen to it.
