End of Year Reflection

 Hello everyone.

Now, I think I wrote a lot of topics this year. However, today is last my blog this year! 

My expectations before this school year started were to make a lot of friends, do a few homework, study English and I can speak English better than before. However, I couldn't come true some of them because of COVID-19. For example, I couldn't make a lot of friends. Actually, I don't want a lot of friends because I don't need friends who are close to each other only on the surface in this year. Also, I had more homework than I expected, but I always finished it before deadline. On the other hand, I came true that I can speak English better in English Lounge, so I think listening, writing an d speaking skill is improving.

Overall, I think this year is fan because I have good friends in college including GTI class, but hard days In addition to GTI's homework, there were many other tasks such as I must write a weekly report in this year. My thought is difficult to get a part time job this year, so I'm asking for my friends about his working place is enough employees in there? If I can I want to work there. I may not work everywhere in this year. Anyway,I want to gain social experience, but it's difficult. 

I'm little bit sad because I won't meet Mr. Zach and my classmates. Also, I don't want to change GTI classes because I couldn't meet them many time, and I couldn't talk a lot.

Thank you for reading through the end.

My favorite Band 5

 Hello everyone!!

Again! I will write about a new band because I don't have any interesting topic, and also no happen around me. Today, I will introduce band is I have known only two songs, but really good lyric. If you have already listened "Warui-kuse"from "My hair is Bad", you will feel something from today's band. Also, I put YouTube links at the bottom.

The Band is "YONIGE" which means a person run away and move another place at night or midnight. However, "YONIGE" doesn't have meaning in this band because a woman was closing eyes and typing them, she typed "y/n/g". When she looked it, she said "YONIGE!", and it was decided the band's name. 

Original member is three people, but drummer was quit this band during they was holding live shows, so now, they are two members... I'll tell you about them. Fist person is Arisa Ushimaru. She charge of vocal and guitar, and she is Australian and Japanese half, but we may not notice it without some one telling us. Her looks like 100% Japanese when I saw her. In addition, she is Larry Van Kriedt's niece, and he was an AC / DC bassist, so she has the blood of the band is flowing. Next, member is Gokkin. She charge of base only. Actually, I don't have information about her. I have only one information that is she is Arisa Ushimaru's friend. I want to add, they have two support members because the band doesn't have enough role of instruments, so they have drummer and guitar. Their name is Horie and Doki Taiyou. Who?? I haven't seen them.

Their famous songs are "Avokado"and "Sayonara Identity". I want you to listen to second song because  she sings "Warui-Kuse" from girlfriend point of view, so I want to emphasize that you should listen "Warui-Kuse"  before you listen "Sayonara Identity". 

If you listen their songs, please think about meaning of lyric because their expression is great. If you read the deep meaning in the words, you will find something new.

Thank you for reading through the end.

My Favorite Band 4

 Hello everyone! 

I want to introduce another Band to be continuing before! Today's Band is really bright. They don't have negative songs I have ever listened their songs. Also, I put YouTube links their songs, so if you want to listen them, please check out it!!

First of all, I'll tell you Band's name. Their name is "04 Limited Sazabys". Fans call it "four Limi" and it is Japanese Rock Band. A man of group members said "I want to attach 04 limited " and another member said "I want to attach Sazaby", so their band name is "04 limited Sazabys" Sazaby is based on GUNDAM of anime and it is derived from Sazabi, a mobile suit of Shah. This Band is made in 2008 and their hometown is Aichi prefecture. 

Second, I want to tell you about members. 4 members in total, GEN, HIROKAZ, RYU-TA and UDO, but UDO is no member now. In 2010, UDO withdrew, so In 2011, KOUHEI joined instead of him. That's why GEN, HIROKZ, RYU-TA and KOUHEI is current members. GEN's real name is Gen Yoshidome and he charge of vocal, base and song writer. In addition, he has a cat and its name Chikuwa. Next is HIROKAZ, his real name is Hirokaz Kawai. He always use a guitar. His feature is red hair and he has a dog and a rabbit. Third person is RYU-TA. He is Ryuta Ogata. His role is to use a guitar and chorus. Last is KOHEI. He is Kohei Omori and he is drummer and chorus. Also, UDO used the same instrument as Kohei. 

Finally, they make music which is up tempo and characterized by singing voice. If I listen to their songs in the morning, I will get energized and I think I will do my best today. I think their songs must listen at the morning. 

Thank you for reading through the end.

My Favorite Band 3

 Hi, everyone.

Recently, I always listen to many songs such as Japanese Band, so when you see me and if I wear earphone, please you should imagine me "he is listening to them". Today, I want to introduce a band which has some big darkness and I will put YouTube link about music at the bottom.

First, I will introduce Band's name and members before why I think they have darkness. My Hair Is Bad is their team name. A lot of fans call it "My hair". This Band consist of three people and they were born Nigata. Tomomi Shiiki is main vocal and the guitar. He is 28 years old. He is not only a Band but also a solo artist. He practiced the guitar because of ORANGE RANGE. If my memory is correct, he always write most lyrics in his Band. Second person is Hiroki Yamamoto. He play base and do chorus. He is 29 and his nick name is Bayari-su. I can't understand this mean. Last person is Jun Yamada. His age is as same as Shiiki. He play only Drum and his nick name is Yamajun. I can find out his nick name's meaning.

Next, I think this Band has darkness. Especially, Tomomi Shiiki because when their live shows are held somewhere and sometimes he said "I know you're in here!!". My thought is "you" is expressed ex-his girlfriend. His one of his lyrics, when he entered their house with the master key, his luggage was packed and there was a letter. He said that the band wasn't selling yet at that time and it changed in another year. He have a lot of regret about her. He has been keeping to write there are at least three such songs. 

I want to write at least two bands...

Thank you for reading through the end.

My Favorite Band 2

HELLO EVERYONE!

Did you listen to the Creep hype songs that I wrote about in my blog before? Today I'm going to introduce another of my favorite bands!! I hope you like it!

The Band's name is Macaroni Enpitu (Macaroni Pencil). They had a major debut recently. I was glad to hear that, because they couldn’t do a major debut for a long period. Maybe 8 years or so. I'm sure they will appear on TV soon, look out for them on "Music Station", "CD TV Live Live!" and more. 

I'll introduce the band members. Firstly, Hattori. He is in charge of the main vocal and the guitar. However, Hattori is not his real name - that is his nickname. I like him because he always sings with all his heart. Secondly, Kenya Takano. He is known as KenKen and he is in charge of the bass. Thirdly, Yoshiaki Tanabe. He is known as Yocchan. He specializes in the guitar. Lastly, Daiki Hasegawa (Daichan). He is good at the keyboards. They graduated from a college of music and formed a band at the same university.

Next, I'll explain how good the lyrics are. Hattori always writes the lyrics. In addition, most of the music comes from his life I think. According to his comment, “It wasn't until I became a quiet adult that I realized that I loved that endless boredom with my whole body. Youth is so momentary that no 17-year-old notices that pointless hope," from Youth and a Moment. This is just one part. He thinks that each song is a good song because it contains his feelings of that time.

Finally, my recommendations for some songs. "Hope", "Youth and a Moment" and "STAY with ME". Please tell me you're impressions if you listen to these songs.

Thank you for reading through the end.

Costco

 Hello everyone.

Have you ever been to Costco? There is Membership warehouse. It is sold a lot of products and reasonable price. For example, food, drink, clothes, electrical appliances, doll and more!! If you go there, you will buy more products than you need. 

First, I went to Costco with my friend two weeks ago on Sunday. We had Hawaiian restaurant meal. I realized that I couldn't eat as many dishes as I used to. I was too full and my stomach was inflated like a balloon. I didn't want to move for a while.

Second, two weeks ago on Sunday was crowded in Costco. The day, our aim was to buy big teddy bear doll because it was birthday present to my friend, so we went there and bought it. Actually, my friend birthday is May, but we went to there on October because of Corona Virus. We bought 134cm teddy bear doll. However, it was really bigger than we thought, so we were surprised. When we put the doll in our shopping cart, we couldn't see around because the doll was really big, so we paid attention around as we operate the shopping cart. Actually, I have only visited there twice, so I felt there is maze. I was worried about get lost and where I should go next! After all, we arrived at accounting place and we were able to purchase safely.

Two weeks ago on Sunday was really really fun day because I went out for the first time in a while except going to college. 

My favorite a band

Hi, everyone.

What do kind of genre music do you like, and you have your favorite bands? For instance, SEVENTEEN or Sekai No Owari. Recently, I became I like some bands, so this blog is that I introduce one of them. 

My most favorite band is Creep Hype?(クリープハイプ) I don't know how to write their band's name in English. I think their lyric is really really great and meaning is deeply for fans because their lyric connects to friends, love, man and woman. For example, when people listen to their songs, people will recall their friends, ex-girlfriend or boyfriend and more. Also, their lives, some people was cried by their songs. What kind of memories did people recall? I don't know exactly what they remember, but the lyrics will remind you of something. If you have time, I want you to listen to their songs once!! You may recall something memories and feel nostalgic.

I'll explain why I like it. I had already known their name and one song, but I don't have interest them other songs. However, when I went to Karaoke with my friends, one of my friend sang their songs and their songs was always in my head, so I ask my friend and I searched them. Suddenly, I became I have been addicted to it such as I'm in bottomless swamp. During go to a college, take a bath and free time, I always listen to it.

Anyway, you should listen to their songs once as you read lyrics. I recommend "bookmark"「栞」or latest song "Impersonator"「モノマネ」

Winter Clothing

  Hello everyone!

Recently, it gets more colder than before, so I'm writing this blog while drinking a cup of hot milk tea.

What kind of clothing do you wear in winter? For example, jackets, coats, outerwear and more! These clothing are necessary to prevent cold in winter.

Last year or two yeas ago,  MA-1 was popular or trend wasn't it? MA-1 is jackets I think. It is based on military clothing. I saw many people wore MA-1 in the town. Do you have it? I have one MA-1. I bought it when I was second year high school because my father recommended it to me and he said it is really warm. He wear it for a long time before it became popular, so I called him pioneer. Actually, He recommended it me when I was high school first year, but it was a little bit flashy for me, so I refused for a while. I noticed now that it is really warm. Also, it has 4 pockets. It is very useful for me because I need not take a bag. All items are in pockets such as a wallet, pasmo, a key and phone. It's enough I think. I forgot to write I bought it at Avirex. However, it is expensive that Avirex products, so if I buy something at avirex, I need a consultation with money. 

If you are interested in this shop, please check it out or go. I have one question that what fashionable clothes are in winter? 

Thank you for reading through the end.

Gone

Hello everyone!!

 I have Dyson an air purifier that is has hot, cold wind and air purifying functions. It is really really useful that can use all seasons in my room. However, it is gone...

I bought the Dyson air purifier this summer. I always used it since I bought. One day, my big sister said "Today is really hot, and I turn on the air conditioner, but it is not working well, so I want to borrow it just a moment." Of course, I said it's okay. I brought it to her room. An incident occurs after this borrowing. It doesn't return me foe a long time!! I haven't seen it for three months. Where is it gone? Actually, I know where it is. However, I won't say anything to her lol because I think I don't want to have a quarrel. Recently, my dad asked my sister "where is it?". My sister said "it is my room, and I don't use now", so I said can I use it?" She said"yes, but Dyson has hot and cold wind..." This means she wants to use it in summer and winter. I can't use it during it is cold and hot days.

As a result, I almost give it to her. I bought an air purifier this week. This function is lower than Dyson. I'm careful not to go anywhere. If Dyson comes back someday, I will laugh. 

Do you have a similar experience to me? If you have anything tell me!

Thank you for reading.

One day of four consecutive holidays

Hello, everyone!

 The weather hasn't been good lately, has anyone gone out? I just went out for one day recently. I went cycling with my friends. Three people including me went out. I will introduce why I went cycling.

I went to the car shop with my father, and my phone rang before I just got home. It was my friends, they live near my house and about 15 minutes away by bike. When I answered the phone, they said "we're coming near your house!". I was really surprised because I didn't know they were coming and I didn't hear from them. In addition, I upsetted because I was not in my house. They waited until I was back. 

After meeting them, they told me where to go and decided to cycle to their hometown, but their house is about 15 minutes from my house. Is it ok to say cycling?? I have never visited their hometown, so I was taught their home and part-time job place there. Actually, I could not remember the way. Also, we went to  the bank and saw Disney from there.  I took a photo on the bank, so uploaded the photo on Instagram. Both houses are near Disney that If I go to there by car, you will arrive in 15 minutes, Despite being close, I rarely go to Disney. 

I think suitable for cycling along the bank. The reason is there is no problem even if I speed up a little. Anyway, it was a really fun day!

Thank you for reading through the end.

 

I Bought A New One

Hi, everyone!

Have you bought anything recently?? Why is a necessary thing expensive? I spent my money a lot, so I will not be able to buy anything for a while...

Now, I will introduce what I bought. I bought a new bike (bicycle)!! 

There is a reason why I bought it. Because of my old bike broke. The bike's brake didn't work well and rusty, so I bought a new one. Until now, bicycles are ordinary bicycles such as called "Mama Chari", but my new bike is called city cycle bike, and company's name is "GIANT". GIANT always sell sports bike. For example, bicycles used in bicycle race.

My new bicycle is up to 16 gears. I can't image how heavy 16 gear. Impressions when I ride the bike for the first time, I felt the height of the saddle and handle strange, and the weight of the bike is really light. If someone wanted to steal it, people could steal easy. Also, I felt handling is more difficult than ever bikes. I want to get used to it quickly before the accident lol. My best surprising is speed, the bike can be very fast if I just paddling a little, so I felt a little scary. My hobbies have increased, so if the wether is nice tomorrow, I'll ride my bike and run along the bank. I can ride a bicycle, so I will exercise for the first time in a while and I'm looking forward to go out.

Thank you for reading through the end.
