Another TED talk on success

I think that Richard St. John's mistake is to stop making efforts. For example, he kept making efforts before reaching his goal. But, he stoped doing as soon as he succeeded because he was satisfied with the situation. And he lost his money. So, he should have kept making efforts, and he shouldn't have satisfied with the situation. So, i think he told to us the importance of making efforts even if we succeed something. Of course, we do know that. But, it is difficult to continue doing that. if this presentation were an argumentative essay, the thesis statement would be it is important for everyone to continue making efforts.

Joasim de Pasada and his Magical Marshmallow

I think the result of his experiment tells us what is needed to success our future. And it tells us that it is importance to wait in order to succeed something. His experiment is interesting for me because he use children to clear his ideas. And children in the video were so cute. I think we have a lot of opportunities to implement more my self-discipline in my life. For example, we have to hand in many reports during this season. So, we can discipline ourselves from this. We can learn the importance of keeping time.I have "marshmallows" in my life. It is shopping. After finishing tests and so on, I'm looking forward to waiting the time my summer vacation will come.

The web

I use Internet almost every day to watch web site,to search for something.Sometimes, we use web sites for our studies and homework. I think that it's useful for us because we can get a lot of information as soon as possible. for example, we searched for informations on Internet in writing class. When we write reports, we need some information. So, Internet is neccesary for us. But, there are many mistaken information on web sites. So, we have to take attention whether it is true or not. And I don't know a lot of websites. My favorite website is YouTube. all of you know it, right? We can watch a lot of things on YouTube for free.Sometimes, I watch it.

Multitasking

I think multitasking is hard for us. But, I know that multitasking is one of important skills in our society,and we have to get the skill in the future.If we have to take care of all my end of semester tasks, maybe I will start doing them as soon as possible.If I start doing that, I can reduce my burden for home works and so on. I think this is the best way to do multitasking. And I don't want my teachers to give us a lot of tasks on same term.Last year, we have to do more home works than usually in the end of semester. For example, we have to hand in two or three reports in a week. it's hard for us! we want to concentrate on one thing, for example reports, tests, and so on. So, if my teachers don't give us many tasks at once, I think that we can decrease our burden, and can concentrate on one thing, and can do our best for our tasks.

short film

I watched the second film,"Oktapodi". It was a light story. I enjoyed this film. It's because main characters are not humans but two octopus.In this film, a octopus had helped another one, a man tried prevent them from escaping from him.He did everything he can do. Finally,they could escape from a man, and his car went into sea. His efforts for two octopuses made me laugh! Also the landscape in this film was also so beautiful. So, i think we will not get tired if we watch it again and again.

behaviors in public for mobile users

We can see people talk by their cell phones. for example, we sometimes see people talk by his or her cell phone.i think everyone regard it as one of bad behaviors.I think mobile users should behave in public.they should not telephone with their cell phones. We want to relax and don't want to listen to their private talks.
Maybe most of people agree with my idea. I think all people don't like annoying by someone. And people's opinions on this matter don't base on ages and generation. It's because I,19 years old, don't like annoying by cellphone or smart phone use in public.Moreover, my mother and grandparents also don't like it. So, I think it depends on each person. It isn't related to age and generation, I think.

A countries I want to go

If I have the opportunity to visit a foreign country for two weeks, I want to visit France. France is located near UK, and the time lag is about eight hours from Japan. Moreover,it takes twelve hours to go the country by plain. The capital is Paris,you know.
The reason why I want to visit France is France has wonderful food culture and landscape. In this semester, I take French class. And my French teacher tells us how beautiful France is, and sometimes shows us video or magazines about the countries. So, I was fascinated, and would like to visit there once. In France, the Eiffel Tower is famous. We will be impressed it when we see it. At night, the Eiffel Tower is lighted up!It will be so beautiful! Of course, the view is beautiful in not only city such as Paris but also countrysides. The countrysides in France have full of nature. Also, France has a long history of food culture. If I can visit there, I want to eat French food, especially sweets.It seems to be very sweet and delicious.And I want to eat food of foreign countries more.So, because of these reasons,I want to visit France.

Impact of media on my life

Media sometimes make our lives change. I think that we can change our lives to know facts, situations, and so on through media. I'll talk about media that has changed the way I see the world.
One of books had changed my way of thinking for our daily lives. The title of book is "mosimo sekaiga hyakuninnno mura dattara." It is a famous story. I'm sure that most of you have heard the name, or have read this book before. I learned that we are happy to eat meal, live with parents and so on. This book shows us that the importance of lives. And we can realize how happy our daily lives is. After I finished reading, I tend to appreciate for everything, for example, for family, my friends and so on. I think the power of media is so powerful. It is because media can change our way of thinking easily like me.
In my lives,I want to change our view of the world into better one more and more through media.moreover, I want to know a lot of facts, situations and so on.

version 2

In Japan, there are some unique culture and behaviors. From now, I will explain them I hit up on. Firstly, Japanese people often bring superior when people visit other houses. I have heard before that foreigners don't do that in foreign countries. I don't know why Japanese people go to other's houses with some souvenirs.I think this is one of things that foreigners should know before coming Japan.Last week, we learned about belief. In this case, it means to protect tradition and defect customs. As we learned it, this Japanese custom has been protecting for a long time.
Secondly, Japanese people tend not to tell their ideas and speak something in front of people. For example, Japaneses people don't do that in classes. When i was a Junior high school student, almost of students didn't speak though they have their own ideas. If there are someone do that, they would be criticized.it is like"derukuiha utareru." I think that people tend not to allow them to stand out. it seems that the way of thinking is also belief--doing it one (Japanese)way. So, i think foreigners might confuse when they come to Japan. And they will adapt to Japanese lives more easily if they know that.
When I go abroad, I want to know visible and invisible culture of foreign countries to adapt to life in a foreign country before going abroad.

1st blogging assignment

I have two goals. Firstly, I want to communicate with foreigners fluently. I cannot speak English fluently.Furthermore,I couldn't catch what they say.So, I want to overcome them.It is a first my goal. Secondly, I want to do academic writing! Now, I don't have exact dream. So, I don't know whether I do academic writing in the future.But, i want to get the skill? through English classes.

Next, in order to achieve my goals, I think it is necessary to talk with foreigners, and study words. if we don't know enough words, we cannot tell what we want to tell, I think.So, I think these are necessary to achieve my goals.
As i said, it is important to have more chances to speak English.

I'm glad to study with you.Bye
