OHAGI／BOTAMOCHI In this winter, I got a lot of glutinous rice. I made various kind of rice cakes. This is one of them. I thought the name is OHAGI. Because when I was a child, I learned from my mother that 'It's OHAGE'. Then I looked for the name of the sweets. I knew for the first time, the name of the sweets might be 'BOTAMOCHI'...(　 ﾟ □ ﾟ ;). I don't know the correct name of this sweets yet... I made it from glutinous rice, ANKO (a Japanese name for red bean paste), soy flour, and the other. How to make is so easy, but.. why I don't know what the sweets is? I was shocked.

secret ninja de l'art et de l'illustration Recentry, je vais souvente à la bibliothèque quand je rentre à la maison. J'ai empruntée un livre avant-hier. Le nom du livre est NINPOU (secret ninja de l'art et de l'illustration). Hier, il a neigée. il a neigée beaucoup. J'ai lu le livre à la maison. Je me demande quand j'ai fini de lire, je vais être capable de marcher sur l'eau. Toutefois, le contenu de ce livre était différent de ce genre de chose. J'étais un peu triste. Mais maintenant, je peux être cachés dans des endroits différents par le biais de Ninjya. Mais, si je le pouvais, je veux être en mesuree de prononcer ces mots au début.

I'm seconderly teacher. My session is conversation only. Another teacher is proffessional teacher,and She is teaching grammar. I really felt that the another teacher is great!! I was moved that the student, she is grown so well. She told me two stories that she maked and I read. Her stolies are very beautiful and I was impressed. If I could draw pictures for her stories, how happy I was! I read the two short stories some times today. How to make me(as one of the community tutors) happy is easy, you try to write me in Japanese. Look at the picture. This is night. You can find the moon and a star. Japanese pronounciation is "yoru". Here, You don't forget one of the Japanese words.(夜-night-)

のんびり過ごす 久しぶりにひどい風邪をひいていました。 のどが腫れて、しばらく熱が下がりませんでした。 何日間か横になって過ごしていました。 久しぶりに、新渡戸稲造先生の本を読みました。 海外むけには、英語で「武士道」という本を書いたことで有名な先生ですが、 北海道民としては、札幌農学校（現在の北海道大学）の２期生として基礎をつくり、農民と一緒にぼろぼろの服を着て畑を耕し、北海道農業の基礎を作った先生として「知らない」というわけにはいかない先生だと思います。 また、敬虔なクリスチャンでもあられます。 クリスチャンだからこそ、キリスト教圏との架け橋としての「武士道」という書籍を書くことができたのかもしれません。 北海道といえば、と思って、「水曜どうでしょう」という少し古い北海道のローカルTVをみて過ごしていました。 「水曜どうでしょう」というテレビ番組は旅番組というジャンルのようです。コメディかと思っていました。 出演しているタレントさんが、ちょうど私と同じ位の年で、本当に身近なテレビ番組でした。撮影風景にも何度か遭遇しました。 今では、そのタレントさんたちは、どんどん有名になっていって、主演映画や、ドラマなどで名前を見かけるようになりました。 こんなに有名な俳優さんになるとは思いませんでしたが、今でも近所のお兄さんのように親しみのある俳優さんです。 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=no8oBKrxhFc&feature=relmfu とりとめもありませんが、久しぶりにのんびりと過ごしました。

Il ya des tortues dans ma maison. Cette tortue se promène tout le temps. Elle est paresseuse. Elle est une fille. Elle est de 5 ans. Elle est de la taille d'un 6 pouces.

I watched the anime I like anime by Hayao Miyazaki. My favorite is "天空の城ラピュタ".　This anime's English name is "Castle in the sky" I told my teacher. How beautiful name! I felt. If I translate it, The castle named 'Raputa' in firmament. It is not cool. ヽ(TдT)ノ… The reason why I don't know but I don't have this anime's DVD. Someday I want to buy the DVD. Now there is the 4 anime movis DVD autherized by Hayao Miyazaki in my collection. The one of them is "ハウルの動く城" (Howl's moving castle) The casles are tough. One of them can fly, the other can move(...The sciene is that the castle is walking..) And I found that one DVD subtitled to many languages. For example 'Howl's moving castle' translated to Japanese and English. And subtitled to Japanese, English, French, Chinese(Manderin), Chinese(Cantonese). I tried to watch English sub and English translate, I found that there is some difference between subtitle and translation. I noticed that there is many expressions phrase by phrase.
