Blog#11 Introduce TV commercials

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.

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.

 What during the period of the school festival did you do?I was active as a member of our club.

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.

   I'll introduce my special place, MUZA KAWASAKI Symphony Hall. Do you know MUZA? It was built in 2003 as symbol of music town Kawasaki. Many concerts are held in the hall. MUZA's equipments of sound are great, so musical instruments sound very good!!

Blog#9: A close friend I've had

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.

I introduce my fovorite novelist. His name is Yusuke Yamada. His masterpieces include "リアル鬼ごっこ" and "×ゲーム", "親指さがし". His novels have many horror and mystery.  I like horror very much, so his novels please me. The present, his novels is caricature and filmized, so his novels are known to many people.　In his novels, my favorite is "スイッチを押すとき". This novel was filmized last year. But I haven't its movie. Because this is because I like a novel than a movie. I recommend his novels to a person liking horror novels.

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!

Blog#8: Tokyo Disney Sea

Writer: Natsue Yagio

  Have you ever been to Tokyo Disney Sea? I have never been to there. However my brother went to there with his friends in this summer, and he bought me a present, a teddy bear named Duffy.
  Duffy was handcrafted by Minnie for Mickey. Since he was in the duffel bag, Mickey named him Duffy. When Mickey goes out for trip, Duffy is always together. He has a girl friend, SherryMae.
  Duffy is very cute! I didn't know him much, but seeing him, I liked him. Now, Halloween events are held at Tokyo Disney Sea. I want to go to there in the near future!
