Single party

On June 17, I took part in the single party. There were some USNA students and PUK students. At the party, I made many friends. We talked a lot and I had a wonderful time with them. All of them were kind to us and their stories were very interesting!

Mixing with the USNA students

On June 16, I took a mixing class with the USNA students from Annapolis. First, we interviewed each other and asked some questions. Next, PUK students introduced our school and USNA students introduced their school. After that, we started talking with some snacks. We talked about what we like and what our dreams are. Also we talked about studying Japanese and English. Most of the students have studied Japanese for only 2 years, and they can speak Japanese fluently and they know a lot of Japanese words! I have studied English for more than 7 years. I think that their Japanese are very good and I have to follow them and study English more harder.

Book Review 8:STRANGER THAN FICTION


This book has some short stories that are unbelievable and very funny. I will tell you some of them.

The bigger, the Better?: A rich woman drove her big expensive car to the supermarket. When she arrived at the supermarket, there were not many places to park her big car. Suddenly she saw a parking place between a big blue car and a motorbike but it was very small. However, she decided to park that space. At the same time, two young women in a small old car came to the supermarket. They also noticed that small space between a big blue car and a motorbike. It was the same parking place. What do you think did the rich woman do? Yes, she pushed the car to park hers!

Hit and Hear: Charlie, a man about 75 years old, often went to a bar in London and met his friends for a drink. He had one big problem: he could not hear anything in his left year. One day in 1930, when he was a small boy, he was on a bus in Liverpool. The bus hit a car and young Charlie hit his head on the floor. That was why he could not hear. One evening, he was in a bar with his friends. They talked about a story about the old days. He laughed and laughed and fell off his chair. When he hit his head on the table, something small fell out of his left year, on the table. That was the very Liverpool bus ticket from1930! Then, he could hear with his left year.

I know those stories are fiction, but they are very interesting. There are a lot of funny, strange stories in this book.

Snoopy's Getting Married, Charlie Brown 1/3

When Snoopy was reading a book, one of Charlie Brown's friends, Peppermint Patty, called him and asked him if Snoopy can come to her house and help her as a watchdog. After Snoopy finished reading, Snoopy got a hockey stick and went to Patty’s house.
When Snoopy was walking around the house, at night, he found a strange shadow and Snoopy ran away. So Patty called Charlie Brown and asked him to watch her house instead of Snoopy.
Next morning, Snoopy came back. He had a love letter!
