Blog#11 Introduce TV commercials

Name:Shuhei Hamada

I'll introduce the TV commercial of a car by http://toyota.jp/. This one targets at japanese people. In this advertisement, famous men and women actors act  as animation characters of "Draemon". It happens at different places -in a road, a campsite, a house of Nobita who is hero of this animation. This commercial has story in 20 years since childfood. In this story, Nobita wanna take a driving license for driving with a girl he's loved one side. But he always relies on Doraemon who is a robot in far future because he has a character of giving up. And then he'll get the license with using various future tools of Doraemon.
TOYOTA will tell young people who live in arban area to get a car more because ones who drive a car are decreasing year by year in Japan. I think that's because traffic is more convenient in many cities, so the ones are increasing more and more. In this commercial a famous animation that a lot of people know make them want to ride in a car. So, I think it's so effective.

   'Chobisuke' is a type of small chocolate cookie by Morinaga. There are three kinds of products. Satoshi Ono, a member of Arashi, and Yukie Nakama who is actress appear at this commercial. This commercial takes place at a garden of a castle. Satoshi is the son of a noble and Yukie is his maid. He plays the president so he tells her to play the secretary, but she rejects that. The dialogue with them is interesting and the music is comical.
   Maybe the message of the advertisement is that "Eat this product, whenever, wherever and whoever wants to eat." The message is shown their line "We will eat chobisuke!" So this product targets at everyone. I think that this commercial is effective. Because we can't know detailed imformation of this product. However the casts are cute and this advertisement is funny. So we can enjoy this.

 Meiji almond chocolate is a kind of the chocolate.This product is made by Meiji Seika.
 Probably the target may be everyone. Yui Aragaki appears for this commercial.She is an actress.This place may be her workplace.She remembers an unpleasant thing and is depressed, but regains spirit by eating chocolate.This commercial uses the red effectively.What Meiji Seika wants to tell is that you get well if you eat this product when you were depressed.This commercial appeals to an audience for the charm of the product by using a catch copy and the music.It is impressive very clearly.So, I think it is effective.

Blog#11:TV Commercial

Writter: Eriko Hiraga

Daiwa-syoken is a stock brokerage firm. Maybe this advertising targeted at office workers. Dr.T.Gilovich, European girl and boy are in. And then this commercial take place at a grocery store. A boy has fallen in love with a shopgirl but can't confess his love to her. Besides, a view is nice and music is charming. In this commercial, Dr. Gilovich made wise remarks;"Lasting regrets result from the things we fail to do, not those we do." The company want to tell that If you don't buy wants early, you regret later. I think it is very effective because I was convinced of his message greatly.

In addition , some members of our club played the Japanese musical instruments almost all day. Many guests made it very fun to hear it. So, I was happy. Many people came our coffee shop for three days.

I joined the school festival as a member of the music circle, named "Keiongaku-bu". We opened a music cafe where one can listen to music while eating foods. Reffering to music, from J-POP tunes to British Rock tunes we played various songs. In foods, we mainly sold rice balls.  
 
In this place, I played 3 songs of the Beatles, "Back in the USSR", "Helter Skelter", "Hey Jude". But unfortunetely, chorous mikes didn't work well when we performed, so I regreted not to be able to make a beautiful sounds. So next time I will try to get better sounds.

   I went to the school festival in Gakushuin University with my friend on sunday. I enjoyed the stamp rally. Last year, I also did it and got two bottled juices. This year, I collected 25 stamps and got some cosmetics. It was fun for me because I could see various displays and went around the campus. So I will do it next year.
   And I ate a piece of meat of a frog! It was an entirely new experience for me. It tasted like a chicken. It wasn't unsavory but I didn't eat it any more.

   Not having much time, I didn't see some open-air stages so I wanna enjoy them next year.

Blog#10:School festival


I visited school festival in Gakushuin university on friday. I'm not with the club anything, so I came just with my friends. One of the friends, Hitomi, belongs to a dance circle. We watched their dances, we were carried away by her performances. She always has a smile on her face but at that time she was very cool and attractive. I had a wonderful time and I feel like saying to her good job! On the festival days, both sides of the street are lined with food wagons. I was pleased with that sight.

Writer Watanabe Sunao

Do you have important friends? I have some important friends. Today, I’ll introduce the one of them.

Her name is Sumika. She met me at the age of a tenth grader. She was the same class with me then. And I and she belonged to the same club activities!
I and she ate a lunch together and came home together. And we talked about the various things including the thing of club activities and the thing of the hobby. It was very happy time.

At the opportunity to meet her, it was rare since I graduated from a high school. However, I meet and talk with her once a week recently. Her part-time job is the same as me. This is really accidental, but I’m very glad to meet her frequently.
 I want to get along well with her all the time from now on.

(Because she hated placing a photograph in the blog, I cannot place the photograph. I'm sorry.)

Blog#9: A special place

Name: Shuhei Hamada

 
I'll introduce a special place I've been to. The place is the Beatles bar in Roppongi called "Abbey Road". I've been there this summer and had great experience. In the bar, "The Parrots", the Beatles tributed band, performs just like the Beatles, but perhaps the band  play better than the original. And the band is friendly to famous musicians, for example, "Oasis", "Paul Gilbert", "Arctic Monkeys" and so on. To my surprise, "The Beach Boys" came to the bar few days before I went there. Fortunately, I could talk with a member of "The Parrots" after their performance and I said to him that I also had the Beatles tribute band, so he gave me advice and his pick. I was too glad. Moreover, I took a picture with them.  
And I took an offer to join the next year "The Beatles Convension" from the Abbey Road bar's manager. In this event, amateur beatles bands can come to the stage. But my band need to pass the audition to perform there. So,  I'll practice the Beatles' tunes every day for this event.

Blog#8:My favorite novelist


Writer: Sunao Watanabe

I am sorry that update is late. By the way, do you have a favorite novelist?  I have some my favorite novelists. Today, I will introduce one of those.
Her name is Atsuko Asano. She is from Okayama prefecture. Her old work has much juvenile literature. However, she writes the novel for public recently. As for her work, the description of feelings is very careful. It is very plain that the character thinks. I think this point is charm of her work.
It is time of the seventh grader that I read her work for the first time. It is a work called the battery. It was very popular, and this work became a movie and the drama.

Besides, there are a lot of works which are attractive. Please read her work once.

Blog#7: a part-time job

I skiped over blog#7 and wrote #8 before. I'm soroy for the reverse. By the way, I'll talk about a part- time job. Dou you have a part-time job? If you have that, What do you do? If you don't have, What do you want to have that? I have worked at bookstore in Yokohama for half a year. I work there three ou four times a week. Usually, I'm at the checkout counter and wait on customers. sometimes, I display books in the rack and help with a regular employee. I like, if anytihng, the former.  I really like my part-time job because I learned various things from experiences, made friends a lot, and was enjoyed my life. In this summer, I was always working but I went out hardly anywhere!

Blog#8 My favorite novel

Name: Shuhei Hamada

Hello, How's it going? Let me introduce my favorite novel, "Sherlock Holmes-A Study in Scarlet". It was written by Arthur Conan Doyle. In this novel, Holmes and Watson, who are hero of the novel, met for the first time. When Watson ran into him, Watson was surprised by his excellent inference ability. And then, Watson began to cooperate with him as his assistant. I was always amazed by Holmes' detections like Watson do while I read it. Maybe, I come to be a Sherlockian, which is the very freak about Sherlock Holmes. I like to read "Sherlock Holmes" as a novel, but I don't like "Sherlock Holmes" movie which is performed by Jude Law. I think it's only an action movie and far from true Sherlock Holmes. But recently I've found Sherlock Holmes' serial TV drama made well by BBC. It's titled "Sherlock". I recommend it if you want to know Sherlock Holmes.
By the way, I'm going to travel to London with my friends during spring vacation. So I wanna visit Holmes' Museum at 221B Baker Street. I also love to read a novels by Charles Dickens, so I'd like to go to Dickens' House, too. And I wannna appreciate a feeling of them.

Blog#8:My favorite novelist

I'm sorry for lating update. How are you doing? Now then, I w'll introduce my favorite novelist today. I am very fond of reading books and so often read books in my free time. Do you know Kotaro Isaka? I like he and his novels very much. He published first fyll-length novel in 2000. It is said that His style is mystery sometimes. I don't like mystery, horror, S.F. ...and so on. But his novels are refreshing and warm in spite of mystery writer. The characters in a novel reveal them personality. I recommend "Sabaku(=a desert)" to everyone. This work is a story of youth,  is described five university students's life. I sympathyed this novel and I like very much Mr.Isaka. Please be sure to read once!

Many famous places are in London. For example, there are the British Museum and the Tower of London. In addition, there are four world heritages. One of the those is Westminster Abbey.

   I was deeply impressed by Gymnastics; Men's Individual All-Around. Kouhei Uchimura from Japan won Men's All-Around gold. I got excited watching his performance!! It was great and so beautiful! He was stunning in 6 events; Floor Exercise, Vault, Parallel Bars, Horizontal Bar, Rings and Pommel Horse.  I think that to do 6 events without misses is very difficult. However his all performances have few misses, they have the beauty and accuracy. I became his fun.

I'm gonna come to the stage and play two songs as a member of band. The songs I'm gonna play are "While my guitar gently weeps", "All those years ago". These tunes were composed by George Harrison, one of the Beatles member.
"While my guitar gently weeps" was composed in time when George belonged to the Beatles. In the tune, famous guitarist Eric Clapton helped George record it. It's so quiet and cool one.
"All those years ago" was composed after the Beatles broke up. It was time when John Lennon, one of the Beatles, died. So, this tune was composed for John Lennon. I really like lyrics of this tune.
So, if you have time, please come and listen to these songs if you please! Of couse, you can listen to many kinds of  music free.

Blog#6: Southern All Stars

Name: Natsue Yagio

   Do you know “Southern All Stars”? I think the group is one of the most famous rock band groups in Japan. I’ ll introduce the band.
   “Southern All Stars” made its debut with “Katteni Sindobatto” in1975. The members are five, a vocalist, a bass guitarist, a drummer, a keyboard and percussion. They have put 53 single CDs on sale by now. The 44th single “TSUNAMI” is most popular of their single CDs. The song which was put on sale in 2000 has sold about 2.93 million by now. The record has taken first place of the successive ranking of the oricon as single CD. It is amazing record, isn’t it? I really like the song.(The video is just guitar version.)
   The reason why I like them is that the words of their songs are so beautiful, and match the melodies. Almost their songs are written words and composed by Keisuke Kuwata. There are various songs, for example up-tempo songs, ballades, satirical jokey songs and so on, so I enjoy listening to their songs.
   In2008, they announced that they will stop their activities as “Southern All Stars” for an indefinite period from 2009. I was sad to hear the news. I don’t know when they start their activities as the band, but I hope that “Southern All Stars” will come back as the band!!
   The vocalist, Keisuke Kuwata, has been active with solo since 1985. I like the 5th solo single “Matsurino Ato” in 1994. His new album, I LOVE YOU-now & forever-, will be put on sale on July 18, so please listen to his solo songs too!

Blog#6: My favorite band

 They are very popular band now. They have released more than 20 CDs since a debut to now. I like "Seishunrain" the best of all their songs. This song is very fresh and makes me cheerful. They sometimes give a concert in the whole country. A lot of audience comes their concert.
 I hope their popularity continues for a long time.

Blog#4: My high school uniforms

Writer: Natsue Yagio

     Did you have school uniforms? I'll talk about my high school uniforms. My school uniforms were very simple―a navy blue jacket and skirt, white shirt and black or brown shoes. They had no patterns and only monotonous colors. So many female students arranged their uniforms by themselves and enjoyed their fashions.
     For example, they wore color shirts, cardigan, ties and ribbons. There were many colors which were pink, blue, purple, green, red and so on. I think these colors are very colorful or flashy. Some female students wore some accessories.

     Now I wear plain clothes every day, so I sometimes miss my high school uniforms. How about you?

We played various pieces arranged for guitar. We had eight kinds of guitar and I was Prime-part. Prime is the middle part and remarkable for pop.

     My favorite piece which I played is "Bacchanale" played in opera "Samson and Dalila." When I was a second-year student, we played it in the guitar contest and received the highest award. Although the movie is orchestra version, it is wonderful too. Please listen to it! I hope it will make good impressions on you! In addition, we played some pieces― "Oriental Wind" by Jo Hisaishi, "Yell" by Ikimonogakari, and so on. Every day practice in guitar was hard but I had a good time at the club! So I like playing the guitar and it is so fun!

 In addition, the outlet is in Kurashiki, too.Even if there is it on all day, I think that it is a fun town. 

 Please look at this page if you want to know Kurashiki more.

Blog#1  something that makes you happy

writer: Eriko Hiraga

Have you seen the Miyazaki Hayao's movie(GHIBLI's movie)?
I think that many people say "Yes, I have".
...Then how about this?

  Have you been to the art museum of GHIBLI at Mitaka ?
 
I went to there for the first time yesterday and spent  very wonderful day.
There was not so big but rich in contents. Especially, Hayao's workroom faithful  reproduced was worth viewing.
I had sandwich for lunch  at "straw hat cafe" in museum. It was very cute!
In museum we can see the short movie. It was made by Miyazaki Hayao, original works.

How did you think that?
Did you want to go to there?
I want to you go to  Miyazaki Hayao's world at least once.
