Blog#9:My neighborhood(Jason)

 Today I would like to introduce my neighborhood. I am living in Sugamo and my neighborhood is convenience. At frist, I can find the convenience store, supermarket, coin-laundry and library 5 minute walk by foots and there is a quiet place for living. If i want to shopping or have a walk, i can across the Togenuki shopping street(とげぬき商店街). There is not a buy street but when the day have "4" there will be very busy because for the Enichi(縁日）.

 I love this town because there have many old person and they are courtesy and It is a good place for walking.

Blog#8: My neighbourhood (Satoaki)

 Hello, eveyone. I would like to introduce you about my neighbourhood. I live in Funabashi. Do you know Funabashi? It is a big city in Chiba and the population of Funabashi is more than 600,000. Because Funabashi is near Tokyo, it is very convenient. My neighbourhood is located between Funabashi station on the Sobu line and Keiseifunabashi station on the Keisei line. It takes 5 minutes to get to Funabashi and 3 minutes to get to Keiseifunabashi on foot.

Please look at my mansion from the outside.

I have lived here since I was seven years old. This is a fourteen-story mansion and I have lived upstairs. A good poin is go up and down the stairs is very easy but bad point is a view is bad.

Please look at my mantion from my veranda window.

A view from my veranda window is not good. So I want to live high floor in the future.

Please look at a picture of Shinto shrine.

This is located near my house and small. When I was a test taker, I often payed a visit to the Shinto shrine to pass an exam. So that is a place full of memories for me.

Please look at a picture of a Family Mart.

Because this is  first floor, I can buy anything 24 hours. It is very convenient for me. And ther are some supermarkets near my house.

I like my town very much. Because it is very convenient and near the station. This is a good point. But there is a bad point too. There are many drunken men around my mansion at night. So it was very noisy I can not have a good sleep. I am always lack of sleep.

Blog#7:A cool thing I can do on my cellephone (Jason)

 Here is Jason. Today I want to introduce "WeChat" a app. on the smartphone.

 In there days we got many kind of app. to take a contact with friends like Lane, and WeChat is one of these. but WeChat have a unique function the others do not have, it can send a short voice massage.

 The good point of voice massage is you do not need to call or wait for that. It means you can save more times! On my case, Typing by phone is very tiredly and this very useful for me.

Blog#3:Collections of the Palace Museum(Jason)

 Hello everyone! Today I want to introduce Collections of the Palace Museum. Collections of the Palace Museum is in the Forbidden City on Beijing, in the museum you can find over a million rare and valuable works of art in the permanent collection of the Palace Museum.

I visited there when I was studying in the junior high school and the historical items in the Collections of the Palace Museum made me have more interest of the Chinese history.

I love the art of Shan shui in the museum because I can not believe  it only paint by brush and ink, that was very interesting. If you have a chance to visit Beijing, I recommend the Collections of the Palace Museum for you and you can find the Chinese Historical items up there.

Blog#6:"Born Survivor: Bear Grylls"(Jason)

 "Born Survivor: Bear Grylls" also called "Man vs. Wild" or "Ultimate survival" is a survival television series hosted by Bear Grylls on the Discovery Channel. I really like this series becauce the title "How to survival if you were losted in the wild" is interesting. The host Bear Grylls was joineed the British Army and he is a reason why I like this serise too.

 In the TV, Bear Grylls always dive to the location like desert, dense forest or snow covered mountain and to show what should they do if they lost. The impressed point is he really to "SHOW" how to do it. for example, he dive in to the clod water in the snow covered mountain and to show what should they do. and the other example, he ask the losted people eat insects or rotten meat if they have not food and he eat it. These things was shocking and let me know a man can do anything for survive.




 The people joke "If Bear Grylls retired, he should be a gourmet". I petty agree about that.
