Here is the opinions which I thought interesting. Answered (a) is (a), and answered (b) is (b).

Question 3

• (a) Because, if that facility is not only for KGU students, that place will be crowded, and we can't use that place when we want to use.
• (b) Because, I can go there with my friends which are not students of KGU, and I can go to there with my family.
• ( My opinion) I can understand these two opinions, because I want to go there with my friends which are not students of KGU, but if everyone has opinions like mine, that place will be not easy to use when we want.

Question 4

• (a) Because, I think this system is good for us, and this is our privilege.
• (b) Because, this is not fair, and I think someone who not student of KGU will be disappointed.
• ( My opinion) I agree with (a) opinion, because we are KGU students, and if there is discount for KGU students, we don't have to find the place to play after school and when we free. I can understand opinion of (b), but I think your friend will understand about that.

Question 6

• (a) I think this is the best way, because make a soundproof building needs a lot of money, and we don't have to make it, because we just follow the rules.
• (b) If that place is the soundproof, we don't care about neighborhood of KGU, and I think there is someone who can't follow the rules.
• (c) I think the best way to it is we will be quiet.
• ( My opinion) I think (a) is the best too, because make a soundproof building is more expensive than we think. I disagree with (c) opinion, and I want to ask what should I be quiet when I fun with my friends?

Question 7

• (a) I think my parents doesn't like to built the place like this in KGU, because if there is place to play in KGU, my parents think I will skip classes.
• (b) I think professors can't stand it, because there will be more absentees of their classes.
• (c) I think they doesn't want to built it in KGU, because there sounds will be louder than now.
• (d) I don't want to built it in this place, because I will skip the class and go there.
• ( My opinion) I agree with (a), because I think my parents doesn't like to built it in KGU too.

Question 8

• (a) Because, when I free during test term, I want to go there and play with my friends.
• (b) Because, if it will be open during test term, someone go to there to play, and fail the test.
• ( My opinion) I think we should close that place during test term, and the reason why I think this is same as opinion (b).

Question 10

• (a) This time limit is the best for everyone I think, because this time limit is efficient to use.
• (b) I think this is the best, because this is not short and long.
• (c) I want to play at there longer than other two.
• ( My opinion) I think (a) is the best, because more than this, we can't enjoy this place well, and everyone wants to play at this place. I couldn't believe the man answered (c), because I can't understand how long he wants to play at there, and if I were him, I will find other places to play or go to class.

This is the result of our group project, and I could hear interesting opinion. What do you think these opinions? Please tell me.

Boyz Ⅱ Men

I like R&B music, so this time let me introduce to you one of my favorite singers. Do you know Boyz Ⅱ Men? They are one of my favorite R&B group, because their voices are beautiful. You should listen their songs right now, because when you listen their songs during winter, you will be happy and your heart will be warm. They singing japanese songs in English, and my favorite songs are "Snow White" of Keisuke Kuwata ( we called this song as Siroi Koibito Tachi in Japanese) and "Song for you" of Exile. These two song are amazing!! I like these songs original, but I like better Boyz Ⅱ Men version than originals. If you want to listen these songs, please let me know, because I have their CDs. Boyz Ⅱ Men's original songs are good as these songs, and my best song of them is "On Bended Knee." This song is amazing too, and you should try it!!

What is your favorite comic?

What is your favorite comic? My favorite comic is "Initial D." Do you know this comic? This comic's story is about street racing, and main charactor of this comic is Takumi Fujiwara. I think Takumi Fujiwara is the best driver in this comic, because he always win every races, and many apponents of him is always driving the cars, which better than Takumi Fujiwara's one. If you like to driving a car or if you like cars, you should read this comic, because I think you will be like this comic.

Power Words

I hate power words, because too dificult to finish. We have to finish unit 20 to 40 of level 7 till the end of November. I don't like power words, but power words is the one of the best way to study English I think. I finished unit 20 to 30 yesterday, but I have to finish 30 to 40, so I will do it tomorrow.

Keyboard Crusher

Do you know keyboard crusher? He is from Germany, and he may be 16 or 17 years old. When I watch his video first, I was shocked and surprised. I think he is crazy, because he always thinking about play PC games, and he always mad at his computer. He break his keyboard when he lost online games, and he screaming something we can't understand. If you watch him video, you can watch it on youtube, and you should see comment of viewers. I think you will be shocked after watch his video. I thought we must not play games so much after watch this video, and I don't want to be like him.

Amazing Voice

I like to listen to music. My favorite musics are R&B, Hip Hop, Jazz and Rock. Recently, I'm watching "Britain got talent" on you tube. This TV program is about find a great singer living in Britain. Do you know Susan Boyle? She became famous after she performed on this show, and she has amazing voice!! She looks like strange old woman, and everyone thought what she can do, when she came up to that show. When she started to sing, all people  were standing in that studio. 

This Week

I could not to go to school in this week, because I caught a bad virus. I thought this is influenza type A or something, but doctor said this is not influenza, and doctor gave me an antifebrile. That medicine was the most powerful medicine in that hospital, but the effect of that medicine was temporary. My body temperature was over 39.6 degree yesterday, and I thoght this virus is worse than influenza. Today, my body temperature was better than yesterday, but I was not perfect condition yet, so I wasn't able to go to school today too. There are a lot of virus in crowded place, outside and school today, and you should be careful about virus before be like me.

Speaking

1. Cell phones are bad for society.

I agree with this opinion, because there are so many crimes of cell phone today. I think the worst thing of cell phone is meeting site ( we call this site as deai-kei), there are a lot of meeting site today, and somebody killed every week. We have to delete these sites, and this is why I agree with this opinion.

2. More women should join Japan's Self-defense force.

I don't think so, because we can't choose someone's life, and I think we don't need many soldiers today. I know there are much men than women in Japan's Self-defense force, but I don't think more women should join Japan's Self-defense force.

3. I think PC games are dangerous.

I think so too, because there are a lot of PC games on the internet today, and many games are safe, but some games are has virus. If virus come into your computer, your computer going to out of order or worse, and finally your computer broke down, then you have to find and buy new one. I think computers are not cheap, and if we want to buy it, but we can't buy it easily. I think you don't want to buy new computer, you shouldn't play PC games on the internet easily.

4. People who wear tattoos are cool.

I think so too, but there are many Japanese people afraid of the people who wearing tattoos, because they think people who wearing tattoos are gangstar or someone like that, but I think that opinions are wrong. Some friends of mine are wearing tattoos, but they are not gangstar member, and they think tattoos are fashion. I think many people in USA are wearing tattoos, and one of my friends in USA too, but he didn't think tattoos are bad. Japanese people have to think about tattoos mean again.

Billiards and Karaoke

Do you like billiards and karaoke? I went to billiards with Taiga, Sakito, Yutaro and Haruki 2 days ago. We had a good time, because billiards was very interesting, but I couldn't win first game, because Taiga is good at billiards, and we couldn't beat him. I will beat him next time.

Yesterday, I went to karaoke with Sakito and Shunsuke. Sakito likes to sing songs of Ne-Yo, and he sung Ne-Yo's song yesterday too. I sung Flo-Rida's song with Sakito, but his song is too fast to sing well, so we couldn't sing that song well, and I thought we have to practice this song. I want to go to karaoke with them again soon. 

New Car

I'm finding a new car recently, because I want to buy a new car. I would like to buy Subaru Legacy touring wagon GT-B, because this car's engine is very powerful. This car is four wheel drive, and this car has 280 horse power. I wanted to buy huge car at first, but one of my friend said huge car is hard to parking and using a lot of gas, so I don't want to buy a huge car now. This car is good at run dirt place and I can enjoy to drive. I will buy this car end of this year or february.

Mt. Aso

I went to Mt. Aso with some friends of mine at midnight, and that place was too cold for us. We went to that place last year too, then that place was colder than this year, and one friend of mine said same things too. I think we can't go that place next month, because Mt. Aso will covered by snow or getting colder than now, and my car is not four wheel drive car. Mt. Aso is a good place, but I think you shouldn't go there at midnight.
