Book Review 1-08


Today, the book which I chose is "RETURN TI EARTH". The story is as follow.

Some people are have a telepathy, just a little. They know what another person, perhaps a brother or a sister, is thinking. If you know someone really well, you sometimes know what they will say before they say it, but are they sure it's all right? To know 'everything' that other people are thinking and feeling, and to know their thoughts that are secrets in their minds in every minute, every hour, and day after day. To know everything is also that you can not refuse.
One day, Harl traveled through the time and space to a distant planet. He returned to Earth after many long years away. Ellen who was Harl's girlfriend and a scientist wasn't interested in space travel, because she wanted to change life on Earth to do something very new, very exciting, and very different and she believed her experience will success. Thus, Harl said goodbye to Ellen and went traveling space.
When Harl went back to Earth, environment on Earth changed drastically, so the world was a very different place. In the world, some of people grew to be adults, but other people were all right when they were young children. However, they began to die like flies, one after the other when they were about ten or eleven years old, because human have got bad minds, so they looked at themselves deep down inside. It was not comfortable to think about it. They hid from their true selves and when they spoke, they didn't always say what they thought or felt, so they also hid from other people too.

That is why I think 'telepathy' is so terrible and I don't want to have the ability. How would you feel this story? Do you want 'telepathy'? Is the 'telepathy' really great? As for me, I answered 'NO'. How about you?

Book Review 1-07


I read this book, "JAWS". This story is very famous as a very exciting film which Steven Spielberg made and the film made him world-famous. Most of people went to see the film and cried out in the cinema because they were so afraid.


Amity is a quiet town near New York. One night a young woman went for a swim in the sea, but she didn't come back. In the next morning, the police found her dead on the beach. Brody who is a good police man thought there was a shark near Amity, so he tried to close the beaches, but business people in the beach didn't listen to him because the only way to live is to sell something to eat or to drink and so on. However, another victim was found, so Brody, Hooper, and Quint went to kill great white shark.
Eventually, only Brody was able to survive and killed the shark.
I was not feel fear when I finished reading this book because I think the movie is more interesting and more powerful than the book, of course.
Here is a wiki page.

Essay5 The Worst Day In My Life

I can remember clearly the day when I had a lot of misfortunes. I think it is the worst day in my life.

The morning on the day was rainy so I went to my university with my umbrella. It was so far so good but I found that I forgot to take my commuter pass with just when I got it, so I went back my home to take it. Then, I rushed back to the Yatsushiro station and managed to catch a next train. In the train I got sleepy so I didn't know when I arrived at Kumamoto station. Because I got off hastily the train to change trains there, I left my umbrella in the train but then I didn't find it. I found it when I left Suizenji station. It is too late then. The train had gone. Therefore, I hurried through the rain to my university and I got wet in the rain. As a result, I was soaking wet all the day because it was rainy when I also went back home.

That is why that it started forgetting my commuter pass all, so I have always taken care not to forget something since that day. I think the day was my worst day.

Watching movie!

The last Sunday, I went to watching the movie, "The Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End" because I like this series and the actors, Johnny Depp, Orland Bloom, Geoffrey Rush, and Keith Richards.
I was interested in the story when I watched the first story, so I watched the second movie, too.
Through the series, I think it is the amusing stories and characters, especially "Captain Jack Sparrow".
Wiki page of this movie is here.


This is a movie's trailer. If you have not watched this movie, please check it out!

Book Review 1-06


Today, I read this book, "SHERLOCK HOLMES short stories" because I'm interested in the stories of Sherlock Holmes. There are three short stories in this book, for example, THE SPECKLED BAND, A SCANDALIN BOHEMIA, and THE FIVE ORANGE PIPS. In this occasion, I will write about THE SPECKLED BAND.

One morning, a young woman, Helen Stoner, came to see Holmes and she asked him to solve a case which is that her younger sister died 2 years ago. When her sister died, she was only thirty and her hair was already grey. Now Helen's hair is just like her hair, so she thought that she was also died because her hair turned grey. they had a stepfather and his room is next to her sister's room. she said her sister heard strange noises such as a whistle and a minute later the sound of falling metal from his room when her sister died.
Mr. Holmes decided to help her, so he went to her house and investigated the case staying overnight there. There were a lot of wild animals and the gypsies. He searched her sister's room and he found clues to solve the case. these were the bell-rope and the air-vent.
He said that the criminal was a snake. The snake came through the air-vent and down the bell-rope, and on to the bed, so the snake bit and killed her.
However, the real criminal was their stepfather because he masterminded the snake, so the sound of a whistle and falling metal to order the snake.

I was surprised that their stepfather was the criminal, so I enjoyed reading this book.
