December 12, I made arrangements with a beautician about a coming-od-age ceremony.
In this ceremony, people generally wear "KIMONO".
In this arrangement, I decided how dress my hair and how do make up.
First, I told to a beautician about make-up, I decided eyeshadow is yellowish-green because my KIMONO is yellowish-green and "OBI" is orange like a the evening sun. Second I decided my hair intend to be an up sweep.
I have hardly worn KIMNO, so to me wearing KIMONO is pleasures.

Swans have died or fallen ill during the past two years on Brayford pool in Lincoln,England.
One reason is that their feather were contaminated by oil leak in December 2003/
Second, they were infected with parasites called nematode worms.
But, experts were not sure about those reasons. Several more birds have died since, all of uncertain causes.
I am not an expert, but I think both of reasons are causes by which the swans died.
In Japan, many fish were killed by a crimson tide, which has two causes.
First is that the temperature of seawater becomes too high and the other is caused by emissious and waste.
So I think that whenever a problem happens, it has definite.
I think those problem are terrible. This causes is almost human activity. We should more careful about nature and animal, because human had destroyed those by now, so we should take responsibility.
I hope swans will not be more died.

I went to a movie, "HOWL'S MOVING CASTLE" which was made by Sutadio Jiburi.
It was the story of Sofy and Howl. Sofy was a woman. She worked for a women's hat shop. One day, she was cast a spell by witch like a crow, and she became an 90-year-old woman.
A witch said her, " Sent Howl the letter."
Howl was a powerful wizard. Rumor had it that he ate human's heart. People was afraid of him.
But when she met him, she noticed that he was not a terrible person. In fact he was a timid person, and became getting depressed as soon as he had a rotten time.
Sofy knew about him, and falled in love with him.......

This story was very fun and exciting!!

I like making a parson happy.
November 15, I and Rinappe celebrated Mio's birthday.
After school, we went to "Okonomiyaki-ya" to eat dinner together. We enjoyed talking and eating dinner!
After then, we went to the park. We gave birthday presents(I gave her a small pillow which shape was sheep,the touch was like marshmallow. Rnappe gave her a body soap which smelled like green tea, and a towel color was like red leaves.) and sang a song for her.
I sang "Stand by me". Rinappe played a guitar and sang a Cocco's song.
Mio was very glad of the birthday party. We became happy because she said to us "Thank you very much!!".

I like a parson happy because everybody become happy!

In search of the albino elephant in the Yara national park.

2004-11-19T03:01:08Z

In search of the albino elephant in the Yara national park.

The 11-year-old female-nicknamed Sue-was recently spotted for the first time in 6 years. It is thought to be the only wild albino elephant in Asia.
Albino animal, which has fur, of appearance is white, but elephants hardly have any fur so you see the skin color.
Conflict
The animals cross the park boundary and venture into the village areas looking for food and water. Most elephants come into conflict with people and because of that most of them develop avoidance behavior.
They become almost no cultural. This makes observation and research into Yala's elephant population almost impossible.
Genetic Question
Why happened to albinism?
It's obviously a very rare mutation or a very rare gene.
Usually genes like albinism are recessive, so even if an animal or a person carries one of those genes it will not be expressed so you would'nt know unless you did a genetic analysis.
On the other hand, it could be a case of a genetic mutation resulting in a characteristic like albinism always being expressed.
Mutations happen because they just happen. That's why you have evolution.
Buddhism
Albino elephants have played a part in Buddhist mythology.
The white elephant has a great significance to Buddhism.
It is the God Shaman's vehicle and it's seen as an auspicious sign.
Just a curiosity
Not everybody in Yala thinks the white elephant is so important.
A local conservationist Monauree says the conflict with humans and loss of habitat are the major concerns.
"We need to focus on the conservation needs of elephants in general. So I guess [the albino elephant] could be kind of a symbol or a flagship for conservation.

Albino animal is rare so we are interested in it ordinarily, however I think it is very important to think about state of animal. Because
develop behavior of human influence many animal and plant life.

Animal Saved

2004-10-26T16:56:34Z

Today I read the article, "Many dogs were going to killed."
Probably, This dogs were discarded by people.
I think some people are very selfish, because people keeping animals as pets, but when they don't want to keep pets, they discard pets.
However there are people really love animals and take care of them which were discarded.
I think some people are very kind.
I hope for increasing kindness people. If many people become like them, animals, which are going to killed, will be saved!

Green tea in Paris.

2004-10-22T03:06:11Z

Green tea is becoming popular as a healthy drink worldwide.
seeing the trend as an opportunity to publicize locally grown tea, a group in Wazukacho, Kyoto Prefecture, is promoting its tea exclusively in Paris. They belive the project, along with other efforts, will help increase their product's brand value.
they are very proud that their product--widely known as "Uji-cha" because it is produced in Uji in the prefecture and in the surrounding region, including Wazukacho--has maintained the high standards of Uji-brand tea, Japan's top brand. And more than 40 percent of Uji-brand tea leaves in the prefecture come from the town.
Wazuka tea has been promoted as "Kyoto Uji Wazuka-cha" in Paris. People in Wazuka hope to chenge worldwide, because Wazuka tea has been sold under Uji-brand but the name Wazuka is not well-known.
Taketani and three others visited Paris in September for tea-making seminars at about 20 places.
People in Paris know these teas, but don't know how to make them correctly, so they gave them three basic pointers. And they tried to teach and entertain them by presenting a new concept of teatime. This is their main purpose, rather than selling tea.
The audiences were attentive at the seminars, and all happy to learn from them.

summer vacation

2004-10-08T02:56:06Z

I started new work in this summer vacation. I work at a restaurant which is name "FUGUDON". We can eat some fugu (globe fish) dish at the restaurant. For example, "TECCHIIRI"(a hot-pot cooked on the table. you have to boil some fugu, vegetables and tofu, in a pot.), "TESSA"(a dish of sliced raw fugu.), "YUBIKI"(the skin of fugu) and so on. FUGUDON sell those foods at a low price.
When I started this work, I was a slow worker because I had not eat a fugu dish, but now, I'm experienced in this working, so I can work at this restaurant smoothly.

Fugu dishes is very good! I recommend you those this restaurant!

The Art. 9

2004-07-02T05:50:35Z

Japan has the peace of constitution. In the Art.9, Japan doesn't go to war, and doesn't have war potential. Recently, the Prime Minister of Koizumi said that he wanted to alter the Art.9, because he want fill a gap between the Art.9 and a present state. And he want to make free use of the Self-Defense Force. However, I oppose him, because the Art.9 is the only constitution in the world. Other country don't have it. So I think we must think a great deal of it.

Himeji castle

2004-06-11T02:10:33Z

"Himeji castle" is one of the most famous castle in Japan.
I had lived in Himeji, Hyogo before I live in Osaka. When I was a girl, I used to see the castle, because my parents used to go to a park, where is near by the castle, with me and my little brother.
I think that Himeji castle is the best building in Japan, consequence it is very huge and the wall is beautiful white.
Himeji castle is also called "white heron".
It is wroth to visiting Himeji castle!

Many pepole, like him, like dress up. I think he is dressmartly!

Now, at some award ceremony, he wears clothes which he design.
He said ," I think really stylish person is nice -looking only wearing T-shirt and simple pants, because they are nice-shaped internally. I'm immature." He is dressmartly and his way of thinking is very cool. I like him.

Place

2004-05-07T02:16:38Z

I have some places where I like. One of this is the park. I take a walk, talk and do badminton with my friends once in a while in fine weather in there.
Some days ago, I ate a box lunch, which I prepared it, with my friend and enjoyed talking. I had a good time. I was able to relax and feel refresh, so I like the park.

About food.

2004-05-07T02:14:41Z

“Baby Face" is my favorite restaurant. This restaurant sells omelet with a filling of ketchup-seasoned fried rice, spaghetti, pilaf and so on. That food is larger in quantity than other Japanese restaurants! This volume of a dish is for two or three people. I often enjoy eating and talking with my friends in this restaurant. This restaurant is very popular.

Today, I made this journal in English class. I was taught by my English teacher. Recently, I did not use a computer, so I wasn't able to understand use a computer well. When I didn't understand, my teacher and my classmates taught me how to use a computer. When I can understand how to use, I taught my classmates who didn't understand. I felt this work was hard, but I finished this work correctly, I felt good. I got it!
