Reflection

This class was very interesting to me. Because we could learn English and computers. First I thought this class was very hard to me. Because I like English, but I had no skills of computer. I did not how to make power points with animation, pick up on my blog. And there are many mistakes in my speech. If I had to make a speech and power points, I could not make a presentation. But in this class, we were divided into groups. So, when we didn't know what to do, we helped each other. Because my friends show me how to make a power point, I could know it. So, I think this is a good point of this class. When I made a speech, I often made many grammatical errors. But I learned right grammers through checking by Simon. Thus I learned many things in this class. For example, grammers, computer's skills and what presentation is. I could grew up. Thank you very for a year.

Sports Activities: Freshman Camp

I will talk about Sports Activities in freshman camp. It was held on the second day in Tsumagoi. We played some games, for example, tug of war, junken centipede race etc. The sports activities were competition between each class. There are 10 classes in our grade, so this activity was very exciting. Each class did their best to win.

In tug of war, people pulled the rope hard. I had a tug war after three years of separation. We lost, but I could enjoy it very much. In junken, people run about on the ground to play junken.

Though it is a children’s game, everyone had fun.　Though we had just got acquainted, we became good friends by enjoying sports . I appreciate our mentor that planed this event. Because I could make many friends through this camp. Subaru

Differences of Customs

We searched differences of customs between Japan and America. For example, greeting, public transportation, meal and daily life.

First I’ll tell you about differences of greeting. In America, everyone greets each other, if they don’t know each other. They say “Hello” to strangers. But Japanese say “Hello” only their friends. I think American people are very friendly and frank.

On the other hand, there are many shy people in Japan. They are shy in front of strangers, so sometimes Japanese people are regarded as frosty. But some Japanese people are out going and amicable to strangers like American people. Especially, people live in Osaka are very funny and friendly.

When you greet to strangers in Japan, they may not reply to you. But don’t worry. They are just shy.

The History of Halloween

I’ll tell you about the history of Halloween. Halloween takes place on October 31st . Principally, it is taken place in Anglo-Saxon countries.

The end of the year is October 31st for Celts, and people believed that the dead persons visit their house and genies and witches appear on this night. People wore masks to protect from them. Some areas people visit their grave, and swing a lantern. It is looks like Japanese Bon Festival.

After this culture, on the night of October 31st, people make a Jack-O’-Lantern. And children in Halloween costumes visit someone’s houses. Because they want to get many sweets and snacks. Now Halloween takes place around the world.

LAGUNA GAMAGORI

I'll tell you about location of LAGUNA GAMAGORI and how to go there. LAGUNA is south of Aichi in Gamagori city. If you go there from Nagoya by car, go this way. Use a Tomei expressway. Run about thirty-five minutes, then go down this way. Next use Orange Road, and run about thirty-minutes. Then you'll arrive at LAGUNA.
