On August 24, I drove with my eight friends. In fact, we had planned enjoying barbecue at riverside, but unfortunately, it was rainy day, so we went to a yakiniku restaurant at first. We ate yakiniku fully. The taste was good, and the talk didn't stop. Then, we went to Aso. At the first place of Aso, we ate ice cream, and saw goats and pigs.

The day was an obon day, so there were a lot of people nevertheless we arrived there at the opening hour. We rode rollers coaster, go-cart, merry-go-round, ferris wheel, and ate frozen sherbet many times because it was very hot day. At night, fireworks went up. We enjoyed to the fullest until the closing time. I though we can enjoy amusement parks too when we had been adults.

Good and bad points about summer

I like summer because there are many event and we can go to sea, river, or pool. I love sink  water in summer hot day. The good of summer is there are many sunny day. I hate rainy day because laundry cannot dry. In sunny days, laundry become dry immediately, I'm so glad, but in this summer, most of days are rainy day, that's too bad. Bad of summer is that most of days are very hot. I don't hate hot climate, but I hate sweat after I take bath and make up before go out home.

BR 2-6: Hamlet

"To be or not to be, that is the question: to go on living, fighting against this sea of troubles, or to die and end everything? Why be afraid of death? To die is sleep, no more. Perhaps to dream? Yes, that's the problem: in that sleep of death, what dreams will come?"
(William, 2004, p.17)

This words are monologue by Hamlet. He was frustrated to his father-in-law because he had known that his father had killed by his father-in-law. In this scene, his mother and entourage of his father are hiding and listening this and Hamlet meets Ophelia who he loves.

"To be or not to be",this words by are most famous words in this story. It is hard to interpret this word. It is interpreted that "l Should or not should the revenge." or "I should live or die." I think this words impress readers　Madness of Hamlet at any rate and we can image the whole picture of this story.

BR 2-5: Titanic!

Of course, this love story is a  real difference between the movie and the history of the Titanic. But, James　Cameron explains, Rose's love for Jack plays a part in the terrible accident that follows.
(Paul, 2010,p.50)

This story is divided into a part of real historical explanations of the Titanic and a part of explanations of the famous movie " Titanic". This words are mentioned in the explations of the movie.

I love this movie "Titanic". I watched it again and again. I know that this big accident is real, and this love story is not real, but I understood about the details of real Titanic for the first time. I think James Cameron is so genius because he put the love story into this real ship accident, and impressed people all over the world.
