I ate a shaved ice with my friend yesterday. There is the shaved ice cafe near my college. When it’s hot, I feel like eating it.

Hi Helga, I've been going fine. I'm really beassy with my girls, house and work I've taking english classes at my work so I can communicated more with my manager. I've been going more computer worked at my job. It's nice to hear that your good I hope to see you soon. Linda

If it is sunny, I arrive at work in about one hour. But if it is raining, it takes about two hours.

It’s still rainy today. My singing class got postponed a bit because my last math class ran late. Ugh, tests are coming up soon! Mom suggested putting my extracurricular activities on hold for a while, focusing on my core subjects first and then coming back to singing after the tests. No, it doesn’t make any sense. I’m not better off under the stressful brushing up on math. Anyway, I believe I can pass the tests, there is nothing to worry about. In case I fail, I can still be a good singer.

Hello everyone, I hope you are all doing well. Let’s work on phrasal verbs. If you have a question, feel free to check my profile. 🤝 I’m available to teach 👉 Conversation | 👉 Test preparation | 👉 Academic and Business English Have a great day everyone.

Some people think that music as a school subject is an essential part of personal growth, while others consider teaching music at school wasteful. I would like to discuss both views and give my opinion. Music helps cultivates not only musical techniques but also sense of beauty, creative expression and cooperation with others. All of those aspects definitely nurture young minds and add precious experience to schooldays. Music classes in Japan often make students practise for choir at graduation or other events, which creates sense of belonging and makes ever-lasting memories. In addition, music serves in raising cultural awareness. Traditional music encourages students to learn about their contry's culture and history. World music showcases diversity. On the other hand, critics think teachers should focus on more important subjects, such as science and languages. It is true that music has subjective qualities which make it hard to achieve objective goals or evaluate students' performance appropriately. Additionally, music is usually not required on high school or university entrance exams except for musical courses. In fact, many private high schools in Japan only teach music in the first year. Some claim that such practices widen the gaps of academic performance between public and private schools, lessening the popularity of the former. To summarise, music plays an important roles in a youth life, but it has several aspects which do not fit in today's education system. I think school needs to balance music and other subjects in the curriculum.

I live in Kyoto. They`re traditional wooden houses in Kyoto, are called Kyomachiya. 「京町屋」Recently, such houses has been renovated as book cafes and are open for diverse business. it's sometimes good time to go and relax and read.

I think it is an effective way to protect wild animals, as it means to stop killing from the source. Sometimes people kill for ridiculous reasons. For example, the sharp fin and bear paw are regarded as one of the most nutritive food, and also can be seen as a top fancy dish. But they are just meat from weird parts... The elephant poacher kill elephants only because of their ivories. But there are millions of materials can be shaped to decorations instead... I support “no trade no killing” with my two hands. We don't need to understand the "weird" needs from some "weird" groups, we just stop them to circulate in markets. If the animal products can not make money any more, there will be less and less people will work on it as a business. I think a sever penalty is also necessary accordingly.

I would like to practice English speaking. If anybody is interested in joining with me , please comment
