Music plays a very important role in my life. I listen to music almost every day, and it always affects my mood and thoughts. When I am happy, I enjoy listening to upbeat songs that make me want to move and smile. When I feel sad or tired, calm music helps me relax and feel better. Music is special because it can remind me of memories. For example, when I hear songs I used to listen to in the past, I remember the places, people, and feelings from that time. Sometimes just one melody can bring back many memories at once. I think this is one of the most powerful things about music. Music also helps me when I study. I often listen to soft music while doing homework because it helps me concentrate. Without music, studying sometimes feels boring, but with music, I can stay focused for a longer time. In addition, music connects people. I can talk about my favorite songs with friends, and we often share playlists. Even if we like different kinds of music, it helps us understand each other better. For me, music is not just entertainment. It is something that supports my emotions, memories, and daily life. I cannot imagine my life without music.

Have you ever thought that human are actual aliens. We always look for aliens which look like us but are evil. However no matter how hard we tried, we never found any aliens. We felt sad! On the other side, someone pay their attention on ourselves. They think that human is a very special kind of creatures in the world. We like eating meat but without sharp teeth like lions. So, we learn to cook meat with fire or other tools. We can't run fast, then we invented cars , trains and planes. Throughout much of human history, all the things done by human were really strange and great in other creatures' eyes. Lions can be the king in the anmials' world, but just a prey for the people who like hunting. We are often asked to protect the environment, because only human can destory the nature. So, is human really a part of the nature? All the plants and animais live harmonious if not a person appears.

Recently I became interested in baking again. My older sister is good at making sweets, and I started baking after watching her. I am a careful person, so baking fits me well because it needs correct amounts and clear steps. I like following recipes and making things the right way. When I was in high school, I often made sweets for my friends on events like Valentine’s Day. I enjoyed giving them my sweets, and my friends looked happy. After that, I moved to a new place and became busy, so I did not have much time to bake. Also, my mother started coming home late at night, so I began cooking my own meals. Because of this, I spent more time cooking than baking. Cooking is interesting, but I did not come to love it as much as baking. One day a friend said she wanted to eat some sweets, so I baked again after a long time. It was very fun, and I was surprised by how much I enjoyed it. This week I already baked three times. I have many club practices these days. One of the practice days is my friend’s birthday, so I am planning to make a cheesecake for her. I want to bring it to practice and surprise her. I hope it goes well, and I hope she will be happy.

Today was absolutely incredible! I spent the whole day at Disneyland with my university friends, and being there during the Christmas season made it feel truly magical. The moment we stepped into the park, the air was crisp, and we were immediately surrounded by festive cheer. Huge, beautiful Christmas trees towered over us, and every railing and storefront was draped with thick, green wreaths and sparkling lights. Even the background music was entirely composed of classic holiday tunes, which instantly put us in a celebratory mood. One of the highlights was experiencing the special Christmas version of the Haunted Mansion. It was transformed into a hybrid of Halloween and Christmas, based on The Nightmare Before Christmas. The decoration inside was spectacular and spooky yet festive, but the best part was seeing Jack Skellington dressed up as Sandy Claws. His appearance was surprisingly adorable, and the whole ride felt fresh and fun, despite having been on it many times before. Later in the afternoon, we moved away from the crowds for a quick early dinner because we had a secret plan. One of my friends has her birthday next week, and since we wouldn't see her exactly on that day, we decided to celebrate early. I had quietly coordinated with the restaurant staff to bring out a special cake. When the waiter appeared with a small, decorated dessert and a lit candle, she was completely shocked and her face lit up. We all sang Happy Birthday, and it was a genuinely heartwarming moment. It was the perfect ending to a wonderful, festive day spent with great friends.

Good morning everyone☀️ Recently, I have been trying to be more active for my health because recently it has been very cold... For example, I try to use the stairs as much as possible instead of elevators or escalators. It may seem like a small habit, but I believe that small efforts can add up over time. I feel happy when I see my number of steps of walking increase little by little. On days when I go out, I usually walk more than 10000 steps!! and it makes me very proud of myself. It motivates me to continue this healthy lifestyle in the future. At the same time, I have a lot of final assignments to complete recently. They are sometimes stressful, but I try to think positively. If I do my best and finish tnem, Christmas will come next week🎄 Thinking about Christmas helps me stay motivated and work harder on my assignments. However, according to the weather forecast, it may rain on Christmas Day😔☔️ Because of this, my friends and I want to talk and decide what we should do. Personally, I do not like cold weather very much, so I would prefer to stay at home. I think spending time indoors with my friends, eating delicious food such as cake or chicken and so on and talking together, would be very relaxing and enjoyable. What are you going to do on Christmas Day? Please let me know!! Thank you for reading.

Last weekend, I had a Christmas party with my family and relatives. Adults gave presents to children, but adults also gave presents to each other, and children gave presents to adults, so there were a lot of presents. There were so many that it looked like a mountain, and the room was filled with excitement and smiles.We ate a cake with strawberries and Shine Muscat grapes. They are my favorite fruits, so I felt very happy. The cake was sweet and fresh, and it made the Christmas party feel more special. For dinner, we had sushi, salmon salad, chicken quesadillas, and other foods. Everything looked colorful and delicious. I also cooked one dish for everyone. I was a little nervous, but everyone said it was delicious, so I was very happy and relieved.After dinner, we played bingo together. Everyone was excited and laughed a lot. I got many things I wanted, so I felt really great and thankful. It was a wonderful and unforgettable night. On another day, I met my elementary school friend in Ueno. We went to a hamburger restaurant and then went to a Christmas market. It was the first time we met in nine years. Even though it had been a long time, we talked a lot and could not stop talking. I remembered our elementary school days and felt a little nostalgic. It was a very fun and precious time.

Last weekend was very exciting and full of new experiences. On Saturday, I joined a practice session with a yosakoi dance team. They were adults who already had a lot of experience, and I felt very lucky to dance with them. Their movements were strong and beautiful, and their smiles made the atmosphere bright and fun. I learned many things from watching them. For example, I realized that dancing is not only about steps but also about energy and expression. I want to improve my own dance skills, so I will try to copy their positive attitude and their way of smiling while dancing. It was truly inspiring, and I hope I can join them again in the future. On Sunday, I went to a fashion exhibition. It was for one of my favorite brands, and they showed the 2026 Spring and Summer collection. The clothes were very stylish, and I enjoyed looking at all the designs. Among the items, I found a very cute hat. I liked it so much that I decided to buy it. The staff told me that it will arrive in January, so I am really looking forward to wearing it. It will be fun to match it with my other clothes when spring comes. Another special moment was meeting the designer of the brand. I felt very happy because I admire their work, and it was exciting to see them in person. This weekend gave me both inspiration and joy. Dancing with the team taught me about effort and expression, while the exhibition gave me new fashion ideas. I feel motivated to keep learning and enjoying the things I love.
