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?

Blog#4: My favorite brand

Writer  Sunao Watanabe

Do you have the brand of favorite clothes? Today, I will talk about my favorite brand. My favorite brand is Axes femme. When I was a high school student, I knew this brand. The opportunity is that this brand shop opened near my house.

 The clothes of this brand are not so expensive. For example, we can buy the blouse in 4,000 yen or less. However, the design of clothes is very exquisite. Those clothes have a frill and a race and are very pretty.

 There are a lot of shoppers when I go to a holiday, this brand shop. So, I think this brand is popular.

 Please look at this page if you are interested in this brand.

Blog#2: Playing the guitar is fun!

Writer: Natsue Yagio

     I will talk about my club activity in high school. When I was a high school student, I was belonged to guitar ensemble club. The members of the club were about eighty. 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!
