book 12

Moby-Dick is a novel by Herman Melville in 1851. The novel describes the voyage of the whaling ship Pequod, led by Captain Ahab, who leads his crew on a hunt for the whale Moby-Dick. The language is highly symbolic and many themes run throughout the work. The narrator's reflections, along with complex descriptions of the grueling work of whaling and personalities of his shipmates, are woven into a profound meditation on society, nature, and the human struggle for meaning, happiness, and salvation. Moby-Dick is often considered the epitome of American Romanticism.
I watched this film at my literature class. It was great.

book 11

The title is "Breakfast at Tiffany's".
This is very famous name of bland.
It's a very romantic love story about two people who find happiness in the crazy, mixed-up world we live in.
George Peppard plays Paul Varjak, a writer who has to earn his living through a wealthy socialite, Patricia Neal, as her "kept" man. Audrey, who plays Holly Golightly, is a gold-digging call girl, who is looking for the right rich man to marry. Though you would think these two would be unflattering characters, they are both very charming and put on phony personas (especially in Holly's case) in order to survive.
I want to wacth film, too!

Aslan the "Great Lion" is the main character in The Chronicles of Narnia a series of seven fantasy novels for children written by C. S. Lewis. He appears in all seven books of the series. The word aslan is Turkish for "lion" and is used as a title for Ottoman/Seljukid and Persian Empire(Turkic) rulers. The figure of Aslan may have been suggested by a mysterious lion which suddenly appears and disappears at key moments in the novel The Place of the Lion.

Little Women is a novel by Louisa May Alcott published on september 30,1868, concerning the lives and loves of four sisters growing up during the American Civil War.

book 5

The title is "my fair lady".

Gloriously witty adaptation of the Broadway musical about Professor Henry Higgins, who takes a bet from Colonel Pickering that he can transform unrefined, dirty Cockney flower girl Eliza Doolittle into a lady, and fool everyone into thinking she really is one, too! He does, and thus young aristocrat Freddy Eynsford-Hill falls madly in love with her. But when Higgins takes all the credit and forgets to acknowledge her efforts, Eliza angrily leaves him for Freddy, and suddenly Higgins realizes he's grown accustomed to her face and can't really live without it.

I have lived for 19 months in Kumamoto. I have got use to satying here already. Kumamoto

There is Japan's best spring water in kumamoto. Kumamoto boasts abundant sources of water. Four springs (Shirakawa, Ikeyama, Kikuchi, and Todoroki) have been chosen among the "Hundred Springs" selected by the Environment Agency. Virtually one hundred percent of the water flowing through the waterworks of the City of Kumamoto, which has a population of 650,000, is provided by ground water. Actually, I have been to Shirakawa spring, which was really great! I was very excited.

In addition to that,Mt. Aso has biggerst caldera in the world!When I found this fact, I was so surprised beacuse I didn't know at all. Mt.Aso is popular for the symbol of " country of fire, Kumamoto".

There are a lot of hot springs around Mt.Aso. Therefore, many people visit Aso to enjoy their liesure. I have also been to Aso to enjoy the hot spring. I could really reax and heal. I was suprised that there are many hotels and accommodations. I would love to visit there again!

I really love nature of Kumamoto. (actually, except the weather...)I am always fasinated very much. I will try to plan many trips in Kumamoto to know more detail.

movie

I love movies. This time I want to tell about " Spider man".This is one of the best movies I've ever seen. If you like action and adventure movies this will be a thrill for you. I like Spider-Man 2 as much as this one. It is a lot darker and little bit more scary than the second one, and there is a little blood.

The actor who acted hero is Tobey Maguire.He is perfect as Peter Parker. The director is Sam saimi.

Nerdish Peter Parker [Tobey Maguire]is bitten by a radioactive super-spider on a trip to a spider museum or something like that. This gives him all the powers of the spider, including being able to shoot webs, jump from building to building and the power of Spidey Sense. Norman Osborn [Willem Dafoe], a businessman at the head of a company, wants to test the same genetically enhanced spider on himself. It ends up turning him into the Green Goblin.

I felt thrilling very much at their fight, but is was really interesting and enthusium! But I don't want little kids to watch it because there are many violent scenes.

I recommend people give this movie a try, and certainly they won't be disappointed. Overall this is a great movie. It's a lot of fun!

book 1

The title is " Lomeo and Juliet". This is very famous all over the world. I have also watched the movie. It was really interesting.
They fall in love at the first sight each other. They looked really happy when they are together. It was a pasionate love!( actually I felt envy them)
However, sadly, Lomeo had to move other place far away from Juliet. At the end, both killed by themselves. It was very curuel.
