MR05: Lilo and Stitch



I will introduce the movie “Lilo and Stitch” This is an animation movie produced by Walt Disney. This movie is very popular all over the world. I have watched it many times. The main characters are Lilo and Stitch. Lilo is a girl; she lives Hawaii with her sister, Nani. Their parents died in a traffic accident so they live by themselves. Stitch is a monster; he was made by Dr. Jumba Jookiba. Stitch is called prototype number 626. He is strong and clever.

One day, Lilo and Stitch met in animal shelter. Nani decided to buy a dog for Lilo because Lilo wanted to have friends. Prototype number 626 escaped from the galactic federation and he was knocked out by a truck in Hawaii. He immediately pretended to be a dog because Dr. Jumba and Pleakley come to take him. Lilo decided to keep him and named him Stitch. They lived together but bad accident happened because of Stitch. Stitch only has destructive emotions so he was in trouble living in Hawaii because he isn’t able to destroy things. Lilo taught an important word to Stitch. It is “Ohana which means family” Stitch doesn’t have a family so he doesn’t know about love. While he lived with Lilo, he gradually knew about love. In the final scene, Stitch protected Lilo from enemy and he saved Lilo and Nani from being broken family. He said “I found my family” He changed his mind and they were family.

This movie is interesting and impressive. The Girl who lost love and the monster who didn’t know love are Ohana. I was told about the love of family by this movie. I couldn’t forget a scene; Stitch said only “I’m lost” in forest. It is very sad. I would be sad if I were lost. I thought I don’t forget importance of family. I also introduced my favorite scene. In this movie, they play the song of Elvis Presley. It is my favorite. I think the music and view of Hawaii are very comfortable. These are important points when you watch this movie.

MR4:William Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet

This movie was directed by Baz Lurhrman in 1996. The main actors are Leonard DiCaprio as Romeo Montague and Claire Danes as Juliet Capulet. This movie is a modern version of original. Stage was moved to Verona Beach which is an imaginary city. The original version is in Verona in Italy.

One day, Romeo and Juliet met in a party. They soon fall in love but Romeo was a Montague and Juliet was a Capulet. These were rivals families. The people hoped the families would make a good relationship by their love but Romeo got into trouble with a fight. His best friend was killed so he killed Tybalt, who was of the Capulets. He was banished. Juliet was very sad but she did not give up and she planned to use poison to put her in suspended animation. She tried to inform Romeo but he did not get the news Therefore he did not understand that she was in suspended animation so he drank poison and he died. Just after, Juliet died to pursue him. Montagues and Capulets knew the fact and they became reconciled through their grief.

Thus, story’s content is same but there are some differences. The characters wear Hawaiian shirts and use guns instead of swords but the gun’s brand is “Sword” Also, there are high buildings in the city. This situation is very interesting and I felt very strange because their lines are the same as the original version. Everyone knows “Romeo and Juliet” so I thought very novel to make modern version of this movie. In this movie, we can laugh and cry. I have watched “Romeo and Juliet” many times since I was a child. I cry every time at the ending. I hope they reach a happy end but their destiny won’t let them. I feel impatient because of it. This modern version is different. We can feel different viewpoint so I recommend it to everyone.

The band’s name is “The Grimethorpe Colliery band”. They worked there and they also took part in the brass band. All members are male and they had never had a woman in the band.


One day, they were embarrassed because they might lose their jobs. The coal mine may close. They could not afford to continue the brass band but it was difficult to say it to Danny because the brass band was his life. Then a girl joined this band. Her name is Gloria. Her father was one of the band members in the past. They went to a brass band contest. And their bands won the semifinal but it decided to close their coal mine and they learned about it when they came back. Then, unfortunately, Danny was also sick. They were suffered and they decided quit the band. They played for one last time in front of hospital that Danny entered. Danny’s son, Phill was also suffered about family and loans. Gloria and Andy were also had bad incidents but only Gloria did not give up going to the final in the band contest. They decided to go to final contest to be Danny’s wish. They performed for them, Danny and members who were coal miners. Of course, they were the winner but Danny refused to receive a prize. That’s because the trophy is not important for him. What is important for him is worth of human. He refuses to receive a prize and he want to have the news be about that. And they played “Pomp and Circumstance” and went back with trophy in their town.


I cried many times in this story. I thought this movie is similar to situation of “Hula girls” while it is Japan movie. I impressed to appearance of people that live with all one’s might in hard situation. I recommend seeing this movie.

BR01: The Billy goats gruff

The Billy goats gruff


I like this story very much. There are three billy goats in a farm. They are brothers and attach to each other. The youngest billy goat’s name is Beanie, second is Bertie and eldest is Biffer.

They spent happy life every day, but they were suffering from a shortage of food in one winter. Biffer persuaded his young brothers to go a field beyond the hill. There are many foods in the field so it is a good place for them. Then, they went there through the forest. Someone was following behind them on the way. They thought it was a ghost, in fact a rabbit! Beanie and Bertie ran away on ahead so they strayed from Biffer. Then, a thick mist laid the forest so Beanie also strayed from Bertie. Bertie was wandering around the forest, but it is fortunate that Beanie could get out of there.

He found a bridge which is written “WARNING Goats beware” so he went out carefully but he was caught his leg by a troll on the middle of the bridge. The troll tried to eat Beanie, but he said his old brother will come soon and he is bigger than I. Troll wanted to eat big a billy goat so he decided to wait him. Then, Bertie went to cross the bridge. The troll tried to eat him, but he said the biggest billy goat will come soon and ran away. Finally, Biffer came to the bridge. The troll tried to bite him, but Biffer shoved the troll with his horns and hurled away in the river.

Then, a lot of animals came out from the forest and they appreciated Biffer. They couldn’t cross the bridge until now because there was the troll under there. Then, three billy goats spent enjoying them life.

MR02: Ratatouille

I introduce the movie Ratatouille. It is an animation movie. This movie’s character is a rat. His name is Remy and he lived a small house with his family and friends. He is a genius rat because he had an excellent taste and smell. And his cooking talents are amazing. In addition he can understand language. He admires chef Gusteau and he wants to be a chef like him.

One day, he floated by storm and he arrived Gusteau’s restaurant in Paris. Remy met Linguini there. He worked as a garbage boy in Gusteau’s restaurant. He has no cooking talents. They decided to work with each other because Remy helped to cook the soup Linguini made. Linguini called Remy ‘little chef’. Thanks to Remy, this restaurant became popular again. But various problems came up. First, it is successor problem. Skinner and Remy had a fight. Remy got the will that made Linguini the owner of the restaurant. Second, it is fight with Anton Ego. He is a harsh food critic. He criticized Guesteau and the rating of his restaurant was lowered. Ego went to Gusteau’s restaurant and ordered a dish. Remy cooked ratatouille with his family and friends. Ego impressed by the dish and he wrote good review. But the restaurant closed because it was found out that rats were there. They opened a new restaurant. It is a restaurant for both human and rat. They will spend a happy life.

This movie is very interesting. I was impressed Gusteau’s word which was ‘everyone can cook’. Rat also have right to cook. I do not know a rat can cook in the world but to cook is freedom. We do not have a right not to criticize. If rat can cook, I will be surprised and little scared but I want to meet them. And I want to be good friends like Remy and Linguini. Ratatouille is very interesting so I recommend this movie to everyone.

Essay06: Group essay

We are studying English language at kumamoto Gakuen University. So today we will tell you about our school. First of all, KGU has 12 departments; commercial science, business administration, hospitality management, economics, international economics, English language, east Asia, social welfare, child home welfare, welfare environment. And there are about 7000 students and many great professors in our university. We are English language students. The student of the English and American Section often uses the 4th, 11th, 12th and 14th pavilion. The teacher of English and American Section has a lot of gentle people. We are a English and American major; there are many professors who help us to improve learning languages. We often have to do assignments; professors correct all assignments each time. The number is too much but they always check those. We are happy supported by many people.
Also we have about 100 circles in this school!! Every circle is so active and uproarious we think. It divides into four kinds. There is Circle union, Culture, Physical education and Student society. When we are in the season for school festival, you can really enjoy with your circle members if you belong to. And you can enjoy drinking a lot. Actually KGU is famous for drinking a lot. Also, we have many events new student welcome party, Sports festival, City parade, Graduation party and Club activity. We can enjoy all year. The preparation for the city parade starts soon. We return summer vacation and prepare it every day. City parade is each circle walks in the town making the portable shrine and clothes. It has aimed at the advertisement of the campus festival. We look forward to city parade! and in October, we hold a school festival. This school's festival is so large scale and really wonderful. it is held by just only student's ideas and students hands. So every circles have each booth stalls and sell each their own delicious food. And many people come to our festival and enjoy with. And the last day's night we hold "kouyasai" it is held for be thankful to have escaped without harm. We watch many festival's pictures in a big screen at the school ground and with fireworks. And shower the hell of beer!!!
And there are many convenient facilities in KGU. For example, there are library, green campus, e-campus and anything. We can use all fixtures to study and to spend good time. These are very convenient for us. I often use these facilities to spend good campus life so I introduce about facility and my favorite place in KGU. I introduce about library. Library is my favorite place in KGU because it is very comfortable and convenient. There are many books, computer, private room, AV corner and anything. I often use private room because it is only my room and there is a computer. It is very good because I use often computer to write report and to renew my English blog. I recommend to you to use private room. Any other, AV corner is also good. We can watch many movies and listen to music. There are much kind of movie and music. I use there when I have free time. I also recommend to you. This time, I introduced about library and green campus but other facilities are also very convenient for us. I need to thanks to KGU and I must keep basic role. Not to throw away garbage and to keep smoking place and anything. we have to spend our school life as we keep these rule.

The buildings with scarlet bricks are symbol of KGU. These are really beautiful and unique. We have a convenience store ”LOWSON” and a bakery and a cafeteria. A lot of people are using them at lunch time so you can have many kinds of meals in this school. And our library is so comfortable. There are many books in the library. There are not only books but also DVD, CD, world newspaper and PC. We can use the computer at there whenever you need to use and we can watch many kinds of DVD, listen to music, read some country’s newspaper and study silently. If you want to study alone, you are able to use private room. Everyone tend to think we must not talk in library but KGU’s library is different. There are two rooms in each floor called “Study Room” we often use that room when we want to study over chat. So we often go to the library to enjoy.
As for convenience service, green campus center is very useful. The staff support student's campus life for example tell them some good real estates, help to procedure driving school and help to apply to insurance. International exchange center help us if we want to study abroad; we can get materials, stuff guide you.
by the way KGU students are very fashionable we think. Every students wear very pretty clothes and girls are cute, boys are handsome. Sometimes, people say KGU students are “charai” because of their looks or their loud clothes. “charai” means kind like frivolous. And in fact, we bet every student will happen something special, particularly romantic relationships. If you thought that KGU students are like grim, that’s not true. we think every student have warm feeling in their hearts. And they are very kind to everyone, cheerful and honestly. They are leading parts in this college. And our college's slogan is "renaissance of Kumamoto Gakuen University."
As you can see, KGU is wonderful college. we have great professors and we are supported by many people and many useful systems in there like library, some food areas, e-campus center and green campus center. And we can enjoy all year in the circle activity like school festival, stort festival and drinking a lot.

Their main events are the City parade, Takuma festival and Post-night festival. People in cultural committee make Mikoshi (Portable shrine) from summer holiday. In October, they walk in the portable shrine for bearing from KGU to Shirakawa Park. They also walk to Kamitori and Shimotori. They put on handmade clothes that suit for the portable shrine. Their clothes and portable shrine are examined by a cultural standing committee. The examination result is announced in the post-night festival. Next, I explain about Takuma festival. People belong to circle are open the branch shop in Takuma festival. “Agepan ice” (ice in fried bread) is very popular every year. These are examined. There are many funny things in Takuma festival. Cultural committee circles make thing along the theme use a classroom. Everyone call “Tenji” (Exhibition). For example, Youth hostel club’s theme is “Uninhabited Island” last year. So they made airplane that crashed, coast, jungle, cave and emergency helicopter. In the stage, there is Miss Campus contest, game that packs disused car person, student’s band’s live etc. In the post-night festival, the prize is announced about portable shrine, branch shop and exhibition. After that, fireworks strike and it goes up. It is wondering and beautiful! And, there is beer shower! It is so excite! Like this, the circle is necessary and indispensable for the KGU.
