Important persons

Hello. How are you? I'm fine, but a little bit tired and sleepy.





So this Monday, and Tuesday I went out to eat dinner with my circle season sports circle, and I went home about at 11 p.m. That's why I tired and sleepy. But both of them were very fun. Next week we will play volleyball. So I am looking forward to it.





By the way, I have a lot of friends. They are very very important for me.





I can not imagine without them. Thanks to them, I can spend happily ever day. And I have good friends also. I want them to keep in touch with me for the future. They are most important persons for me. And I think friends are treasures. I always think so. When I feel uncomfortable, unhappy or pain, they always listen to me seriously and give some advices about that. I really thank to them. If there were not for them, I could not get over. Then they make me natural. So I am very relaxed, being with them. When I felt the pain of parting from someone, one of my friends came to see me even at night. I was very happy for that, and she made me calm. So I want to comfort her ,if she feels unhappiness or pain or something like that. It is very important to be good listener, when someone seems to be depressed. Then I often go out with my friends. Tomorrow I go to Shinjuku to go shopping with my friends. I am looking forward to it. The shopping with my friends makes me get away from the stress of life. We will buy the presents for our friends. I wonder we should buy for him. On my way to Shinjuku, we are going to buy another presents for our fathers. So Father's Day coming soon. The tie is just for my father, so I may buy one tomorrow. I wish he would be happy for the present. Then on Mother's day, I gave the wall hanging to her. She was very surprised at the present, but very very happy, so I was also happy to hear that. It is very beautiful hanging. I feel so happy,seeing someone smiling. So I like to give some presents. And I will continue to do that. It is very important to thank to your parents. And my family is also very important for me. I love them.




They are full of kindness. And they gets angry in the right situation. So I learned a lot of things so far. Without them, I could not have been brought up like this. I really thank to them. If I marry and have a baby, I will love them. I wonder what kind of person who I marry.



Then ,before I entered this university, I had been very worried about making friends. I had thought perhaps I could not make friends.



But now I have a lot of new friends. I made good friends sooner than I had expected. I talk to them about severe things, usual things, and trifling things. They are very cheerful, so I get to be fine soon even when I am depressed. Next Monday I will stay at my friend's house. She lives alone.


She is one of my good friends. I love her. She is very interesting, kind and especially cheerful. I want to talk a lot and listen to her events. I can not help waiting the day. About two weeks later, my friends are going to come to my home, and stay there. It will be first time to invite them ,who are friends in Sophia University ,to my house. We are in same circle, so we are so closely. We often talks with after school. But I want to talk with many people, and want them to know about me.





Finally, All I want tell you is to thank for your parents and your friends.


And think how much they make me comfortable. I don't forget to thank to them, and I want to be better listener and adviser. And if you are given some advice by someone, you should be good listener ,when he is depressed.

I love children.

Hello. How are you doing? I am little tired, because I was doing the assignment of English grammar's class late at night. But I finished it so I am happy as if one gets to be free to do something. By the way, I will talk about children. I love children, especially at the age of three to six. They are so cheerful, innocent, and lovely. When I see smiling child, it makes me so happy, and never makes me so happier than smiling children.I have a dream to become an interpreter, but I have admired a kindergarten teacher. When I was sad, their similes made me cheer up. So I love them. In this spring vacation, I was invited to do volunteer at the preschool, so I went to the preschool with my friends to do that. It was very fun, and very tired, and precious day for me. It was my special experience in my life. One of my friends who invited me has a dream to become a kindergarten teacher. She has gone to the preschool several times, and she had talked to me about that, so I had told her that I wanted to go preschool to do volunteer, then we decided to do that. At the preschool, there were more children than I had expected. No sooner I saw them than I got to be happy, seeing their smiling and running about. At first they were not so friendly, but soon they came to us and invited to play with. I was very glad to hear that. Then we gradually got to be closed to them. I was running about and there, playing the ballgame, and chattering with them and so on. I was surprised at their cheerfulness. In my youth, I also was such cheerful, I thought. The kindergarten teacher taught me the important point of communicating with children. He said to me,"It is important for you to try to understand their feelings when they do something. And it is sign that they do not have idea what to do when they ask you to hug and press their self against you. So when they do that, you had better notice it, and should think what to do next." I was thought the important thing through the volunteer. I had thought the communication with children was only happy and cheerful , but I learned the important and good points, thanks to the kindergarten teacher. To tell the truth, during the day I was very happy and enjoying with them, but I also very tired. I think it was because of their vigor. I noticed that when I saw children smiling, crying, pressing their self against me, understanding how feelings they had was so difficult for me. I really respect the people who works for kindergarten teachers. I have to review my attachment to children. Then one of them gave me some works that he made them in the art class. I was very surprised at the presents and at the same time the happiness occurred to my heart. I was really so happy.The presents are still on the wall. I want to have my children in the future, and I can't help thinking about my children in the future, and they may make me happy. In many ways, the experiences at the preschool. I'm looking forward to going there. By the way, thinking of why I like children, there is another reason for it. My mother also likes children so much, so I suspect I like them too. And she often says,"The child over there is so pretty.". And she sometimes talks to children. Then she worked as a teacher for a part time job before. It seemed that so happy when she was surrounded by children, but students' parents often complained about her way of teaching, or something like that. So she got to be very very tired. So she resigned it. I think she was right, so it is not good to continuing the job ever,when one usually feels uncomfortable and stresses. Anyway I learned important things in my life, and I want to be able to communicating with children very well.

About Disney☆

Hello. How are you doing? I am good, and It's Saturday today. The weather is so good, isn't it? I'm very happy in such a wonderful day. So I am very happy now, even while I'm writing now. I took a walk today. I was attracted by the nature nearby my house. By the way, I will tell you about Disney. Do you like Disney? I love Disney. I have seen a lot of Disney movies so far. Especially I like "Beauty & Beast". It is wonderful movie, I think. The songs in the movie are very good harmony. They make me happy every time I hear. And the princess Bell is so cute. I sometime wish I could be. She is modest , beauty and kind to people. I have seen the movie many times. But I never tired of it. So I want to see it again. Perhaps I will be able to notice another good points of the movie. Then I like Tokyo Disney Land and Tokyo Disney Sea very much. I have been to Tokyo Disney Land about ten times, and Tokyo Disney Sea two times. Have you ever been there? If you do not go there, I will recommend you going there. I like the former better than the latter. It is because the rides in Tokyo Disney Land are easier for me to enjoy. In reality, I am not good at riders. But I can do that, when I go there. And also I like "Electrical Parade very much. Do you know it? I always be impressed by the parade when I see it. I like it the best of all the parades. I often go there with my friends. And I spend the day there. I often ate too much, and spend the money when I go there. But while I am there, I am so happy and be able to forget about the assignments and something that makes me unhappy. So that is why I like Disney Resort. And I have take most of the rides in Tokyo Disney land ever. "Big thunder mountain" is very fun. The view I can see is very beautiful. I think people who took it even one time agree to me. It is really wonderful , especially in the evening. I want you to take it when you go there. You will feel satisfied with the view, I think. Also I recommend you "Electrical Parade". It also makes you satisfied. I went there one year ago, so I'm looking forward to going there again.


It was about six years that I went Tokyo Disney Sea for the first time. I went there with my family, and we spent most of the day there. We had a great time there. And we could make precious memory then. And I will never forget it. And I bought a lot of souveniors then. I regret spending much money then. I often spend too much money when I go there. And yesterday I went there with my friends. It was second time that I went to Tokyo Disney Sea. We went there by train, and arrived there at 5:40 p.m. Then we had to keep waiting by 6:oo p.m., because we bought admission tickets that is available from at 6:oo p.m. to 10:00 p.m. Then we took riders. We were so lucky ,because Tokyo Disney Sea was not crowded yesterday. Perhaps today may be crowded, so it's holiday today.


I think going there during the week is better than during the holidays. We had very very good time there. I felt so happy of spending the time with them. We took "Rasing spirit", "Center of the earth", "Indie Jones" and so on. I first took a "Rasing spirit". I was very nervous, and I was afraid of it.

But it was fun. I wonder I get used to riders. Then we saw the entertainment "Bigband Beat". It was like jazz live. It was first time for seeing it. And I had not known it before yesterday. I was very impressed by it, and I wanna see it again. I'll recommend you. Then we had light meal. I think there are delicious foods in Tokyo Disney Resort. I like various kinds of popcorns there. And we had some pictures. Seeing them, I remember having a lot of fun. It was rare that I did not buy any souveior yesterday. We had't time to buy them. Anyway yesterday was very precious to me, and I wish they would think so. I want to go there with them again.

This GW

Hello. How are you?







How was your holidays between May 3 to 5? I enjoyed very much. We season sports circle had a training camp for three days. So we went to Choshi in Chiba to play sports. I could not help feeling happy during the camp.











On the first day, I got up at 5:30 a.m. I was very sleepy, and I could not sleep well, so I was very excited about going there. We went there by train. It took about four hours to go there. It was too long, but I was talking a lot with my friends and new friends. It made me joyful. I took some pictures then. After arriving the home, we changed our clothes and took a bus to go the ground to play softball. But the ground condition was very bad, and it was cold and cloudy. So some of us went back to the bus, and we talked about our love for several hours. I had great time with them. Because of that, we got to be more closely. I love to talk about the subject with my friends. Then we went back to the home, and had a break. I took a short nap with my friends. Some people took a bath.And then we prepared for dinner. But it was just thing we put the meal on the desk. The dinner was very delicious, and enough to be full. After that, my friends and I took a bath together. I was very relaxed. Taking a bath always makes me refreshed. I love to do that. And all of us gathered in the saloon, and we divided into some groups to communicate to each other. It was most interesting to me in that camp. I made new friends. I felt communicating with many people was good for me, so that I could learn various ways of thinking. The time was very precious to me. Then on the day, I slept only for two hours. That is because I was talking with my friends.








On the second day, after we had breakfast, we went to the same place to play softball. The weather was not good, but we continued to it. I had not played it before then. So it was difficult for me to play it, but I was a lot of fun. My group won and lost. Everyone enjoyed it. I thought what a friendly our circle is. So some of men taught how to play it to me kindly.






And we had lunch there, chattering with my friends. Then we parted for two groups. Men and women. We played soccer. I missed the chances of goal several times. I regret not getting a goal for my team. But everyone said to me, "Don't mind! Next time!". I felt their warmth. I'd appreciate it. After the soccer game, we hold the small sports festival. We had the relay race, a bun-snatching race, and so on. To my surprise, my team won, and got the first prize. It made me feel happiness. My team was full of happiness. My team was given custard puddings, and jellies. It was very delicious. After the festival, we went back to the home, and had dinner. And from 8:00 p.m., we did some games. It was regrettable that the winner was not my team. However, I had very good time. On the day, I did not sleep. It was for the first time in my life. Even on the day, I was talking with my friends. I couldn't help feeling pleasant, while the camp.







On the third day, I was very sleepy all the day. We played soccer again, but I was sleeping in the bus, while they were playing. Beyond me, some didn't play it, so the people who played it on the day was a few. Then after we went back to the house, we had lunch there. All of us took pictures together. It is my treasure. Then we took a bus, and went to the station. We missed the train for Tokyo, so We had kept waiting about for an hour.Then we took another train for Tokyo. I fell asleep by we arrived at Tokyo station. We arrived there at 7:00 p.m. So I had dinner with my friends. Then I came home. I was tired, but I was very very happy for three days. Everyone was really good persons, so I love them. I love our circle. I feel so lucky to meet them. I'm looking forward to another camps in this summer, and in this winter.

I like spots!

Hi! How do you do?
Do you have some plans during this successive holiday?
I will go to Choshi in Chiba to play some sports. It sounds great , doesn't it?
I belong to season sports circle in this Sophia University.
We will go to Chiba, stay there for two days, and play softball and soccer and so on. I have to get up so early: at 5:30 a.m. I am worry about getting up, but if I take the late train, I can't go there with others, so I must do it.


I am looking forward to it.
And I want to make a lot of friends through season sports circle, and know various way of thinking. In order to it, I have to talk to many people, but I like talking with my friends, so it is ok.

Last Friday, I joined the circle activity for the first time.

We went to Koiwa to play soccer. I was worried about playing it well,

but the senior members were very kind to teach me how to play it,

so I played it relaxed. For an hour, I was being teached by them, and I joined the game. I was very nervous , but owing to their teaching, I got a goal, and played it better than ever.




I was so happy for that. And I learned the importance of teaching something to people kindly, because if they were strict to me, I could not play well. If I have a chance to teach, I will do the same as they did.




I had a good time with them.




After playing it, we had a Chinese noodle in Koiwa. I had great time, too.




We talked a lot, then we were more closely.









In this June, we will have games against other universities, for example,




against Rikkyo University.




We will play basketball, and volleyball. I wish I could got some points, and we could won.

I am looking forward to it, too.



By the way, I played basketball in elementary school: I belonged to the basketball club. I enjoyed it very much, and I practiced it very much.

Even now I like playing it very much. But I want to play it better than now. And I like skiing, running and especially dancing.


I belonged to the dance team in high school, and I learned many things through the experiences. For example, I learned the importance of acting voluntarily in looking over the situation around me and noticing things to be helpful for other people. At first, I could not do that exactly, but gradually I could see more widely. Owing to the experiences, I could become actively in many ways. How wonderful one can learn good things through sports. I want to learn more things through various sports.

Speaking of skiing, I would go skiing in many places. For example, my family went to Nagano, Fukuoka and Gunnma to do it. We had great time there every time , but we were so tired. I always fell asleep while my father was driving to my house. Recently we do not go skiing, so I want to do it in this year. But I am anxiety about my brother's schedule, he belongs to the basketball team in his high school. He is busy practicing it everyday. Anyway I like sports. If some one does not like, you had better start something in this successive holidays. Never giving up is important, so that you can have good time, and good experience.

If you like sports or not, I recommend both of you to exercise regularly.That's because exercising regularly makes you healthy. My parents exercise two or three times per a week. I think it sounds very good, so I want them to continue it even from now on. My grand father too exercises. So he is very fine. He is always cheerful. He lives in Osaka with my grandmother. There is something wrong with her right leg, so I am worried about her. They always welcome us every time my family and I go there. And we often go out to have dinner. It makes me so happy. I can't forget thing about them.I still remember this. When I told them that I had passed the entrance examination of Sophia University, they were crying. "We really glad to hear that," they said. And they were crying. I was impressed their hearts. I want to meet them as soon as possible. And I want to say to my grandmother: "Are you ok? Exercising is very important, so you had better do as following your condition. Finally, there is someone who doesn't decide to join the circle in this Sophia University, let's exercise with us, join us!

Thank you.

My good experience in Canada.

Hello. How are you? I'm a little tired.

I will tell you about my experience in Canada.
I have gone to Canada one time. It was when I was sixteen years old.
The stay was very short time, but I had great time there.



I stayed at my English conversation teacher's house there.







I had an English conversation lesson per a month at that time.





Then I said to him, "I want to go abroad," then he said, "Why don't you come to my home in Canada? Then I said, "Of course I will."



That was because I went there.



I had longed to go abroad, so I was looking forward to going there.



I still remember feeling the excitement,arriving at Canada. I couldn't



help feeling happiness. Then when I arrived at the airport, the teacher and his parents came to pick me up and we went to Sault Ste Marie, where their house was. It was countryside, but very beautiful place to go.




I had something to carry out during the stay in Canada.



That was just I decided to ask some phrases, but I had to be active speaker.



I had good and painful experiences, but both experiences are good memories still now.



I realized how I couldn't speak English through the stay.



I also couldn't catch their conversations and questions about me



so that they spoke faster. So I often asked to them over and over again.



And I gradually wondered asking to them made them irritated.



It also made me irritated, so I could catch little. I had a lot of stresses



about me in many ways. Then on the third day staying there, I happened



to cry, but I didn't why I was crying. When I was crying, my host family



was very kind to me. They hugged me kindly, and said to me, "Are





you missing your mother?," and I said,"No, I'm not. Just I wondering





asking to you over and over again makes you irritated."





Then they said,"Asami, it is better for us than nodding without understanding. It is OK." I was very comfortable to hear that.



I felt the warmth of their hearts. After that I asked to them at ease.







I met many foreign people. And I made friends there. I'm looking to



forward to meeting again.



My friends and I went shopping, chatting and talking about our cultures to each other. I had great time with them.



And I spent most of the time with the teacher and his cousins and his parents. For example, we went to the plane museum in Sault Ste Marie.



There are the planes we could enter in. And there I could carry out the plan to be active. I said to the stranger looked gently, "Excuse me, would



you mind taking our picture?", "Of course not," he said. I was very glad.



And I thought I got it! I done! It was very small thing to you, but I would



get nervous ,talking to foreign people. So it was a big step for me to be



active.







We went shopping, sightseeing,fishing, canoed, swam,went to the zoo, had a barbecue,and hold the party. I bought a lot of things for my family, my relative and my friends. I spent a lot of money then.



And we swam and canoed in the lake for two or three hours. It made us connected stronger. After that his father taught me how to fishing.



So I got one, but I broke his fishing pole. I am still really sorry about that.



After that we had a barbecue near the lake. Everything was very very good experience for me. I will never forget them.





What I enjoyed most was the party. I hadn't had a party before then,


so it was very enjoyable. A lot of people came to the house, and had


very delicious foods and played cultural games and communicated


many people to each other. The time passed very quickly, so I didn't go back to Japan and I wished I could have stayed longer.


I love them. I love the place.





Finally I learned the importance of getting to know different cultures and


thought I wanted to realize my dream as an interpreter through the


various experiences there.

self - introduction

Hello. Nice to meet you. How are you? I'm good.
I'll tell you about myself. To begin with , my name is Asami Masumoto.

My friends call me Asami or massu or army. My family calls me achann. And I was born in Toyama and soon we moved to Osaka and we have lived in Yokohama for twelve years. I think that Yokohama is a beautiful place to go out , go sightseeing and go shopping. I often go to Yokohama to go shopping. I like my hometown very much.And my mother is from Toyama,and there are many delicious foods , for example, hotaruika and masunosushi are very popular foods in Toyama.I like them very much. On the other hand,my father is from Osaka.There are also delicious foods .Anyway I love to eat.
By the way,it takes about one thirty minutes to come to this university from my house every day. To be frank with you,I don't like a full train. But I'm very happy to have classes in this university,because one of my dreams was entering this university . So when I passed the entrance exam,I did not believe it.And I felt happiest in my life. My family was surprised by the news,too. I really enjoy the school life every day. And I decided to belong the season sports circle in this school.

Then I like dancing so much . And I belonged to the dance team in high school. Also I devoted myself to the club activities and I made good friends through the club activities. When I danced for the first time, I was so worried about being able to dance well,but gradually I improved my dancing . In this spring, we dance club hold the event and danced in front of the students. It was very fun.I want to hold an event again. Then in this summer we dance team may enter the dancing festival that is called '' hamakoi''. I think it is like '' yosakoi-sorann'' that is known as a traditional dance in Japan. It is different from hip-hop or jazz or girls hip-hop. But I like them too.
Also I like listening to music, for example, one of my favorite singers is backstreet boys. That is because their harmony makes me relaxed and comfortable. While I take a train to come to this university, I often listen to their songs.And I went to their concerts.It was great. I' m looking forward to going their concert again.
Also I like singing sings. So I often go karaoke with my friends. Every time I go to karaoke , I have a great time there.
And I have a brother who is two years younger than me. He plays basketball very well . And I often played it in elementary school, and I belonged to the basketball team in those days. Even now I like to play it so much.
Then in junior high school, I belonged to a track and field club.

I liked to run ,but my legs was injury when I was second grade.

So I went to see the doctor ,and he said to me,

"You could not run any more. In a way you were lucky , because if you had come to see me a little more later ,you should have a operation."

I was so sad to hear that I couldn't run any more,but I decided not to leave the club.So I liked track and field .And I decided to

become a team secretary. It was the good experience for me.



Then I have a dream to become an interpreter. So if I were an interpreter,

I could make people communicate to each other and I could meet with

many foreign people . And I went to Canada three years ago ,

and it was the best experience in my life. I felt very fun when I communicate with foreign people. Through the experience, my range of

thinking became more widely. So I really want to study abroad　and
speak English very well.

Finally, I want to learn English more and more ,especially improve my English speaking ,accumulating vocabulary and make a lot of friends.

Thank you for seeing my introduction.
