BR2-07: Red Planet

Do you like space or rocket ship? This story is about space. I want to ride rocket ship because it looks fun! Everything float inside the rocket. I want to float! And I want to see the earth from space. I think the earth is very very beautiful we had expected.
The main character, three boys and a dog went to space because of their magic key. The key took them into the computer game kinds of space. They put on spacesuits and the dog too. It's funny that a dog is waring spacesuits. And they went to red planet and the planet was all red and there were nothing. Only funny little people or animal were there. They helped three boys and a dog to go back home. I thought they were very different from human beings who live the earth but they are so kind like human beings.
The story was so interesting!

BR2-06: The Rainbow Machine

This is very interesting story because rainbow was made by human and Rainbow Machine. I couldn't believe it but I don't know how to make rainbow, so I was really interested in it.
The rainbow machine can move anywhere because it's in a big lorry and the machine has so many computers. I thought why are there so many computers? It is just for making rainbow, so why? Five children made many kinds of rainbow such as straight rainbow, waving rainbow and it was all broken a broken rainbows. But I thought it was funny and nice. However, it is not good for nature and people because it is unusual.
The rainbow made from some inks. I want to make my original rainbow. It is so fun if people can make own rainbows, isn't it? Anyway, rainbow is so beautiful and it makes people happy feelings. I like rainbow very much! How about you??

BR2-05: Lost in the Jungle

This story was like a adventure. Three children's mother's birthday came, so they gave some presents for her. A boy called Chip gave a box of chocolates and a little boy, Kipper made a monkey and gave for her. A girl, Biff caught a plant and gave for her. Their dad also gave her a plant and their neighbor, Anneena and other people also gave her plants, so the house turned into a jungle!
When children played in Biff's room, a magic key glowed and the magic took them into a jungle like their mom's plants!! The jungle was beautiful but there were many dangerous animal and plants. They had to take very carefully. Then they met two old man and woman and they were looking for the Lost City. The children helped them to find the place. They crossed a rope bridge and got a old boat and the boat went through a big waterfall. I thought it was very dangerous and if I were there, I can't cross the dangerous bridge and through the waterfall.
Surprisingly, behind the waterfall there were many steps and they climbed the steps. Then they could find the Lost City!! There were many golds and also the wall was gold. They were happy.
I thought that it was unbelievable that the dangerous jungle has the Lost Golden City. If people find the city, they can be billionaire!! But if people couldn't find there, maybe they die. I think it's very hard decision for us. Anyway I don't want to go the jungle!! HAHA:)

Going to Downtown by Myself
Today I went to school with Michille and Chisato. Today's class was also two classes together, so I went to another class room with my friends. There were Michelle and a old teacher and played some games which was musical chairs and action game and then we played with Maori sticks with singing a Maori song. It was so difficult for me. Yvonne's class was also game with chair and learned I.N.P. It is eye moving and if we learned it, we will be able to see through the person's lie. It was very interesting thing for me.
After the class, I, Haruno, Misora and Mika went to Jungle cafe and had a lunch. Today was free afternoon, so I decided to go downtown by myself. I left Unitec at 1:00pm but I lost my way to train station!! Oh, no! I didn't know where I was. I walked, walked and walked and listened to the train sound. Finally, I found the station. When I arrived there, Sanae was standing, so we talked. After, Junki came and we got a train together and talked many things about school, future dream, studying abroad and part-time job. It was interesting!
BUUUUUUT!!! An accident happened. The signal was break down and the train shopped for about 1 hour. It was long time!! We worried about it and time. 1 hour later, the train began to start finally. When we arrived the staion, we separated each. I went to Queen Street first and looked around some souvenirs for my boyfriend and family. I bought a funny Maori object and Manuka honey's body butter, hand cream and lip cream and thermo cap of can. Then I bought clothing. I bought too much clothing!! I have to make a money when I back home.
I and Ayako met at the "巨泉の OK ギフトショップ" and looked around a shop and then we got a bus and backed home. When I backed home, a letter from my boyfriend came and read it. I got a energy from it!! Then I packed up a little bit and had a dinner. It was lamb and I didn't like the taste because it's baby sheep. After that, I called to my boyfriend and chatted for about 20 min and I felt so happy!! Then I, Nigel, Jeff and Ben went to meet Olivia who went to singing club and then we went to $2 shop. I enjoyed to go with them. They're all funny persons.
At 11:00 pm, I called my father and mother and both were fine, so I was glad. I'm happy!

Today's first class was two classes together and we had to interview to Alista who is a vegetarian and Yvonne's boss. Then we learned a Maori song from Yvonne. It was beautiful song and also we sung in Maori language. It was more easier than English because Maori language's pronunciation is similar to Japanese. Yvonne praised our singing in Maori language because our pronunciation of Maori was very good. And Yvonne looks like gulping down her tears
because it was a farewell song. It's beautiful. This moved my heart.
After the lunch, we met Japanese BA students and they're learning Japanese in Unitec, so we talked with them in English and Japanese. They're interested in Japan and they love Japanese culture. I was glad to hear that. After that, we wrote some messages for Unitec teachers and I and Yui went to Unitec cafe. We ate a sweet chocolate cake and drunk Macciato. The cake was very nice but I think I have to go on a diet when I back to Japan soon!! We talked about human relations and a type of blood. I thought it's difficult to keep good human relationship. 
After we took a Michelle's class and we talked about traveling. Then we played a game which Michelle gave a capital letter like "e" and we had to write something words starting "e" about country, animal, verb and food and we had to compete the time. It was very difficult for me! After the class, we asked some question about environment to Michelle (also Yvonne) and took a picture with her. We had a lunch on the bench in front of Keiko's office and I ate $6 delicious meal and it was first time to eat it. We talked with Sanae about Boy Scouts because she was a Boy Scout. It was very interesting! I want to have my future children enter the Boy Scouts because it's good experience for children, I think.
After I went back home, I and Jeff watched " High School Musical" and it was very interesting. I like the main character girl! She is so cute!! Then I, Jeff, Ben and Nigel had a dinner. I had to make a presentation, so I tried to do that hard. I and Jeff quarreled about a time of dinner. I had an unpleasant experience...

Exciting Day!
Before Michelle's class, I and Michelle held preliminary discussions about congratulations of Ayako's birthday. Then we made a poster of some advice to fellow students about "how to improve your English". After the class, we sung a birthday song for Ayako and I and Haruno went to another class to took back a birthday card but they didn't write it, so we went back our class without the card. Yvonne's class was interview to Joe who is a staff of Unitec. Then we learned "Put in~" and "Take off~".
After my group played a bowling. My team was Miho, Michiru, Haruno and Yui F. I got a nice score for me, 98! I've never gotten like high score because I'm poor at bowling game. So I was glad to see that. After it, I and Haruno vs Misora and Mika played a game in the game center. It was so interesting. After, Everyone gathered and I said" Happy birthday, Ayako!!" and we sung a birthday song for her very loud voice and gave a birthday card to her. She was surprised at it and moved backward shyly. It was so funny. Anyway, she was a lucky girl.

After the class, we had a lunch at a bench in front of the Mrs. Keiko's office. Then we went to 10 pin bowling. First, we experienced the Laser Strike. We wore a jacket with lamp and had a gun. Then we separated three groups and this is the team.Then we went to other dark and flashing room with cool music!! It was like star wars!! We shoot other team's shining lamp on the body and got the point with hiding behind some walls. It was soooooo funny and exciting!! We all enjoyed it and I want to do it again! It was a very precious and interesting experience.
I went back home with Yui. When I went back home, I made a picture of square piece of fancy cardboard for Unitec teacher. I wrote kiwi bird. Then at 6:00 pm, I started to make
Okonomiyaki. It took very long time than I'd expected because I had to cook for 6 people and cooked it with wok, not frying pan. So it took 2 hours. Jeff also cooked some Madelaine tasting
lemon sugar. We had a dinner together and everyone said " This is yummy, very good Nozomi. Thank you!" So I was glad and felt happy. I don't cook everyday in Japan, so it was good time for me. 
After the dinner, we watched a yucky TV program which someone killing some chicken or chick. It was yuck!! I don't wanna see it!

Lisa surprised at the happening and she thought “Claudia is going to shoot me!” , but Claudia and Matt told Lisa “ We were practicing for the scenes there!”. Lisa felt safe and laughed. After, they had lunch together happily.

In the afternoon, we went to Harbor Bridge walking and we wore a overalls and attached the safety belt. I felt it was so soared!! I didn't wanna go there!! Two Chinese TV reporter and cameraman came and they took us on Video. The Taiwanese reporter was cute and beautiful woman. We were on TV!! It was scared, but I had to climbed second.

Date with Haruno
Today, I got up at 8:30 am and it was rain and windy. I had a breakfast and my host mother was cooking Malaysian sweet. It looks like "mochi" and put some nuts and sugar and coconut around it. It was really nice. Jeff made coffee because he learning make coffee. Also he learns the travel agency and hospitality management and he wants to be a hotel man and waiter of the hotel restaurant. His interest are similar to mine, so I felt it's very interesting.
Then we had a small lunch and I went to Unitec gate 4 to meet my friend, Haruno. Her host mother took us to the St. Lucas shopping center and I and Haruno looked around many shops. We went to a cafe and drunk something hot. We chatting and talked about part-time job. She is so funny!! I bought souvenir and I didn't have big bag to take the
airplane, so I bought it in "$2 cheap" shop. I found a black big back and it was only $2! I thought I could do good shopping! Then I bought 2 clothing. We went back home at 5:00 pm.
When I got home, Jeff, Olivia and Ben were there and Jeff and Ben played the game on big screen and no lights. I, Jeff and Ben played some games like "Wii" and wrestling with play station 2. It was very funny. After playing it, we had a dinner and it was "norimaki" but there were no raw fish but avocado, carrots and many kinds of food. I tried to eat putting avocado but it was no nice. Putting avocado and chicken on the rice is popular style in NZ, they said. It's very interesting, isn't it? I think maybe most Japanese can't believe that style and very surprised at it. I think no raw fish is no life in Japan!! HAHA:) But most NZ people don't like raw fish. I can't believe it. It was culture shock for me! I'll tell my mother this new style when I back home.
I asked some question of my research to my host parent. They answered very kindly. I have to complete the presentation!! Oh~~~no~~...

I and Sanae's Great Adventure!!
Today, I got up late and it was about 9:00 am. The time fixed for meeting with Sanae at 10:00 am in front of Unitec university 170 building, so I went there very quickly. Today's plane was goimg to downtown and Parnell. I and Sanae went to the Mt. Albert station with talking about studying abroad or future dream. Today was warm. When we arrived at the train station, the three boys; Katsuya, Junki and Shuhei were sitting on the bench. I and Sanae didn't know how to go to downtown, so we asked them and they told us very kindly. But only one person was like a knower all. HAHA:)
That was first time to got a train, so it was very intersting for me. We fellowed the three boys and we went to the "巨泉の OK ギフトショップ" with them. Then I and Sanae went to a public market in the park and bought some souvenirs and cute photo album. We looked around some clothing shop and met the three boys again. They're very funny boys. I and Sanae looked for cool cafe and had lunch. It was expensive but very delicious. I ate too much!! We talked about part-time job and love. HAAH;)
Then we went to New Market by link bus but it was very far and we didn't find Parnell, so we asked some people how to go there. It took very long time. We found the shop which is our favorite place "Sallie Clough" at last and bought some lovely and beautiful paintings I bought before. I wanted to buy for my family and my boyfriend because I love her paintings. Then we went to chocolate boutique and drunk a hot chocolate. It was very goooood!!:9
We took a link bus again. But...the bus had come a very long way round! I had to go back home by 7:00 pm because my host family
go to Malaysian restaurant tonight. Now is 6:00 pm, so we wanted to go downtown soon. At last, we got off the bus and went to the train station which was lighted up. We saw te time table... but... "Oh, no!! The next train is 6:56!! I can't go back home by 7:00!!" I couldn't go the Malaysian restaurant and my host family went there except me. So I called by public telephone and we had a little dinner "subway" and went to "巨泉のOK ギフトショップ" again. HAHA:) It was very hard but I learned many things today. It began to rain and we got on the train and walked from Mt. Albert station to my house by myself. It was long walking and I was tooooo tired. I arrived at home at 9:00pm. But I enjoyed shopping and walking and chatting with my friend.

I went to school with Katsuya who is my classmates and went to computer room with Yui. Today was preparation for research, so I investigated something kind of NZ's environmental awareness but there were not enough information. So I typed my writing blog. Then I, Yui, Haruno and Ayaka had a lunch. Today's class was two class together and interviewed for Paula who is a Unitec teacher. Then we separated the class and took a Michelle's class. We learned about "a cold" and "injury" which are related to body. I have a cold now, so I could know about their new words very smoothly.
After I went back home, a letter from my boyfriend was on the table, so I was very happy! I wanted to call him soon but I didn't buy a international telephone card, so I couldn't. We had a dinner early except my host father. At 8:00pm, I called to my friend, Haruno to date for Sunday. Then a disable person and her mother came my house and talked with Penny, so I went to my room and thought about my research.
Anyway, my muscle sore!

I have not experienced big flood, so I don’t know how hard it is. I wanted to know that, so I elected this book.
There are five people and one dog in the family. It had been raining and raining for days. At first, there is little paddle outside but a storm came in the middle of the night and the rain beat their house, so they couldn’t sleep. The next day, outside was like a big lake and couldn’t see ground. The school was closed and people were taking some sandbags to their front of the house to keep away getting flooded into the house. Father and mother took a chair and plants upstairs, so children helped them.
The night, flood water came in the downstairs!! Oh no!! The hall was full of water. I thought it’s terrible. Next day, fire officers came to the flooded street and they took a dinghy and helped the family. They went to a hall in the town and there were many people. They ate and drank something hot. I think spending people makes me heave a sigh of relief. After they backed home, the downstairs were all mud but the mother said warm words, “What’s more important than all this mud? We are”.
I like this word because I think what is most important thing is human’s life. We have to protect our body and safe first. I understood that flood is so hard for human beings but it is natural disaster, so it cannot help avoiding. I thought it is important to thinking and preparing some countermeasures against the disasters.

Squash, Squash, Squaaaash!!!
Today, I went to the school 9:15 am because today's activity was squash. I like sports, so I was looking forward to do that. Unitec has squash rooms, so we separated 4 people each and then played. I was a member of soft-tennis club when I was a junior high school student, so I felt that it likes tennis. I felt it was difficult at the start but practiced many times, I soon got the
After the squash I got a chocolate chip cookie in the subway and we went to dove cafe to have lunch. It was raining a lot. Today's class was two classes together. We played some games and performed a small play which is "legend of Maui". We practiced three times and presented it. It's funny. The story was like that; A sun passed the sky very fast, so village people couldn't fishing and make a fire, so they're asked Maui who is a special God to make the sun more slowly to move. Then Maui and two brothers made a net to catch the sun and made a rock guard. The sun came next morning and they caught it and Maui said " You are bad sun!" and hit it. The sun said " Why you hit me?!", and Maui said " You passed the sky so quickly, you have to do it more slowly." Then the sun understood. Next morning,the sun passed the sky slowly and village people thanks for the Maui. It was happy story. I played village people.
Next class was Yvonne and we played the number card game. Then we did jazz chart and "Turn on, turn off". After I went back home, I did a homework and had a dinner. It was Malaysian curry. It was good and very different from Japanese curry. I like Japanese curry better then Malaysian. Any way, I love curry!! HAHA:9

Horse Riding
Today, I went to gate 4 with Shiori. It was very sunny, so it was good weather to ride a horse! I'd like to ride a horse but I was so nervous because it scary to ride. It took about 1 hour to go horse riding farm. There was cold because of on the mountain. The Yvonne class was first ride, so we wore a helmet and the horses assigned by farmer. My horse was so tall and white and gray, so I couldn't ride at first. It was very scary because it was soooo high and rocked from side to side, so I thought I fell to ground! It's so dangerous, isn't it?? But I
think only my posture was good. HAHA:9
We rode a long way which has ascents and descents, narrow roads and muddy roads. We had to change the posture according to the road situation. If it is ascents, we have to slouch and if
it is descents, we have to bend our back. It's very interesting. We rode a long time, so I felt very tired. But I enjoyed it.Then our group went to Tarzan attraction. It looks very dangerous and scary, so I decided not to do it. Everyone enjoyed it, so I was happy.
The activity finish was 12:00 pm, so we got back Unitec 13:00. We had only 30 minutes to have lunch. I and Yui bought a hamburger and went to the class. Yvonne's class was jazz chart which include kinds of coffee, tea, eggs and steak. There were many kinds of them. For example, steak has rare, medium rare and tea has 1 sugar with milk or with lemon. It's very interesting.
Then Michelle's class was " Have you ever~?" and she told us the NZ myth with a book. It was first time to hear the NZ myth, but Japan has no myth about why Japanese continent are like these shape. I don't know. After the class, I send a letter and went to shop on my way home because my contact cleaner have started to decrease but it was to expensive "$23.50", so I didn't buy it.
When I backed home, everybody was there. I talked with Jeff and study English. I wanted to know my name's pronunciation in Chinese or Taiwanese, so I asked my boyfriend and family member's pronunciation in Chinese. It was very fun to know other languages! I'll tell them when I back to Japan! Nigel and Penny went to opera concert, so I and Jeff and Ben was at home. Ben felt sick and he spilled out in the toilet. I hope he'll be fine.
