THE PIANO


This story is about a man. From this story, I realized again that the life is affected by people and the environment around us. This story's main character Anthony, people around him called him Tony, decided to work in a farm because of his mother's advice and situation of the farmer, and at that time, he was 13 years old. Some of his friends worked in factories or shops, but he didn't want to work there. When he rested with his friends during working, they found a piano near the farm, and he wanted to play that. After the short time, a girl came there to give him a present from his family. She was a daughter in the farmer's family. She moved his playing, and praised that so much, but he didn't believe his ability so much. However, he remembered a pianist who saw him when he was young. From that day, he came to have piano on his mind. He learned the piano by the girl Linda. They enjoied that. One day, a man who worked in village school heard his playing, and he moved that, so he recommended to let him to go to music school to the farmer. He could practice piano every day, and he ran a competition. He won that, and he gradually became famous pianist.
I'm a student now, but I will work a few years later. My position is similar to his 13 years one.
I've waved about the job which I'll do. I had the three job which I had been interested. However, recently, I couldn't have adress one job and I've sturuggled too. Each job have good point and not good point, so I didn't realize which was the best for me, and which did I want to do . I talked with my parents many times, but those answers were not so different. I was said that I could decide slowly, I had much time to do. However I wanted to decide soon, and these situation were pain for me. One morning, my father said for me "You could decide the job which you wanted to do". From this march, I've taken a cource. That cource was little hard for me, and I came to be interested in the other one of three. I had taken a cource last year. That is the other one. In addition, I found the information of a cource in this spring. That is the one which I'm interested in so much, so now I want to take that course next year. I've recommended for a long time to do the course which I take now, but he said me " If you didn't want to take that one, you could take the other one." At that time, I was excited. I think he noticed my tiredness and condition. Now, I've not dicided clearly but I feel things is moving. I'll search about that job carefully, and study for qualifications that the job demanded. I'll make plan for my future and execute to be able to spend my life with pride like Anthony.

【★Magazine★】

I love Magazine. I buy various kinds of magazines, Fashion, Music, sometimes literature. But there are so many magazines in store and they are published short term. I have many favorite magazines, so my money is often crunch. I'll buy them with planning. I think recently,there are many similar fashion magazines. That is so monotonous for me. I think each magazines had originality when I was junior high school, but now same fashions on many fashion magazines. I've read by an article that the problem is because of climate.

Big Fat Cat AND THE SNOW OF THE CENTRY


I love this season every year. Of course, I like other seasons, but this season is special for me. Not too hot and too cold, so I can spend daily life comfortably. I'm excited when I talk about that winter will come soon with my friends or my family and I come to want to listen Xmas song from this season every year. I enjoy to imagine decorations in town or Xmas songs in shops and I become happy. When I went to library and chose some book, I just found this book, that is about Xmas season!! I decided to borrow this book immediately. In this book, there were many situation of Xmas, so I had fun so much.However, this week I didn't read this book often, so I couldn't understand enough. I read this book all, but there were many points which I couldn't understand. This time, I borrow the book which have written by many words to improve my reading skill, but I noticed my vocabulary is so poor. I felt frustrated during I read this book, but I believe to continue is so important, so I'll try to improve my vocabulary, idiom and grammar skill.

From this week, I teach English for junior high school student. She is 3rd grade, so she'll take examination to enter a high school. She said she was not good at English, but I thought she was smart when I taught English. I had thought I should have teach for two hours on Tuesday, but that was wrong, I teach one hour only. I was introduced that job by my high school's friend. Her brother works a compeny to visit to teach, and he looked for someone who can teach in my city. At first, he said he wanted to let teach Math too, but I'm not so good at Math, so I asked him to be able to teach only English. He asked me many times to teach Math too, but I didn't want to teach Math strictly, I didn't have confidence to do that then He said "OK, I'll teach someone who can teach Math." He found soon, so she is taught by two persons. When I went to her home on this Tuesday, she had got a dog. That dog was so small and cute.

Anne Frank

I found this book. Last week, I learned about the politics by the Nazis at a class. I had heard of that but I hadn't known in detail since that class and read this book. Anne seems to have been cheerful and lived happily until the war was happen. They were Jewish, so they had indiscriminate massacre. That fact was so shocking for me, so I thought I wanted to stop reading many time, but messages from her were so important for us, I thought that. I've heard that many women in those days respected the horrible man, and that was affected the climate of public opinion. That is big problem and terrible. We know we must not do like those things. Life is precious thing, that is natural. I think history like this must not repeat strictly, so I think we should have interest about politics and train to have eyes to watch that to the end from daily lfe.
