About my hometown

About my hometown

 

I was born in Arao, but now, I live in Kumamoto city with my parents. I don’t have any memories in Arao because I lived only a week. Kumamoto city is very nice place to live, and there are a lot of famous places. For example, Kumamoto is famous for Kumamoto Castle, Mt. Aso, Kurokawa hot spring, Amakusa, Hinokuni Festival, Fujisaki Shrine, Kumamon, and the others. Many people visit there. There are many kinds of delicious food in Kumamoto, too. In particular, Horse meat, Higo meat, Taipien, and Karashi renkon are very famous. Kumamoto’s vegetables (for example, tomatoes, watermelons, green peppers, eggplants, and spinaches) are very fresh and delicious. In Amakusa, there are a lot of beautiful beaches. And, Amakusa’s bowl of rice topped with sashimi is very delicious, too.

The people of Kumamoto speak Kumamoto dialect, and Kumamoto accents are a little different from other accents. I think that it’s very difficult for many people to speak Kumamoto dialects. If you come to Kumamoto, please challenge! It’s very interesting, and it’s also a good study for you.

 

In addition, Kumamon is very popular in the Europe countries and other countries, and there are a lot of Kumamon’s goods. He is very strange and funny.

 

In summer, it’s very hot and humid. In winter, it’s very cold here in Kumamoto. But, it is neither hot nor cold here in Kumamoto. Kumamoto prefecture has less damage of the typhoon than other prefectures. Also, Kumamoto prefecture was authorized in 2012 by the ordinance-designated city.

 

However, Kumamoto was hit by torrential rain generated around North Kyushu from July 11, 2012 through July 14. In four days, 27 injured people appeared 30 dead people more.

 

 

As you can see, Kumamoto prefecture is a very nice place to visit. If you come to Kumamoto, I will tell you about Kumamoto’s history.

First classes and new school year(Week1)

Our school started in April 1^st, in 2014, so I became a sophomore. Many senpais say that sophomore is very important and busy in this year. As for this year, I don’t want to lose some credits. If I lose it, it is difficult for me to graduate from university. I become a sophomore, so I have a lot of things to do in this year.

My favorite movie(s)(Week9)

My favorite movie is “A Song to the Sun”. It was a movie shown in 2006, and YUI, is a singer-songwriter, who is from Fukuoka prefecture, performed in it. She was 19 years old in those days, and she played a position 16-year-old Kaoru Amane with a disease called the Xeroderma Pigmentosum(XP) that couldn’t be expose to the solar light. When I saw this movie, I cried a lot. I recommend this movie. Please see this movie someday. It’s a very nice movie.

Week8(Foreign countries)

I have never been to foreign countries since I was born. My parents have been to Canada once, my grandmother has lived in Canada, and my older brother has been to Hawaii with his girlfriend. I am very jealous of that. I think foreign countries are very nice place for sightseeing, and there are a lot of famous places. I want to go to Canada, the U.S, the U.K, Australia, and New Zealand someday. I want to talk many people in English, and I want to eat a lot of food. But I don’t want to go to China and Korea. I think that these countries are very crazy and dangerous for me.

Week15(Vacation Plans)

I haven't decided my vacation plans yet, but I would like to go to Tokyo, Osaka, Kyoto, Nara, and Hokkaido. I have never been to Tokyo, so I'd like to go to Tokyo Disney Sea, Tokyo sky tree, and Tokyo Disney Resort with my friends. I want to go shopping, eat some delicious food, and buy some clothes, too. I have been to Osaka, Kyoto, and Nara for a school trip, but it wasn't a good memory for me because I had a bad stomachache at that time. As for this year, I want to go again. I don’t want to spend much money, but I want to buy some souvenirs.

About my keitai(week11)

I have 2 cell phones. One is iPhone5, and the other is a Galapagos cell phone. When I was a junior high school student, my father bought it to me. The maker was Softbank, and the color was pink. I liked my Galapagos cell phone very much, but there were a lot of cracks in my cell phone. I changed it iPhone5 into Galapagos cell phone. I want to change it into iPhone5s from iPhone5 because many people use it. I’m very jealous of it.

About my part-time job(week13)

I had a part-time job before. I worked at cake shop near my house. The name of the shop is called "Kaju". I worked three or four times in a week. In particular, the day of Christmas, New Year's Day, Valentine's Day, and White Day were very busy, and many people come to buy a lot of cakes. Father of the classmate of my junior high school was a chef owner. I was very surprised. There were a lot of working students. There are many kinds of cake and baked sweets. The recommendation is florentins, fromage, souffle cheese cake, and leaf pie. These are very delicious. If you come to Kaju, please buy someday. I don’t have any part-time jobs now, so I intend to work part-time job at the convenience store near my house.
