Movie Review: "RENT"

This time, I’m going to introduce everyone a movie “RENT”. This movie is drawn about the bright young days of young people no matter how poor they are. They dream of being a musician and an image writer and so on but they can’t pay the rent of the apartment where they live every month. It’s the companion’s story for one year from Christmas day. The dramatis personae are all individualistic, they are all artistic-oriented young people such as a musician, an image writer and a dancer. The dramatis personae are a musician who had played an active part as a member of formerly popular rock band. But he is staying indoors at home now because he lost heart because of his girlfriend’s death and his disease “AIDS”. He is charmed by a dancer who lives in a room downstairs but he can’t step forward and speakto her readily. Next, his roommate is an image writer, his girlfriend deserted him and she is going around with a woman who works as a lawyer now. This movie intertwines with various dramas such a love triangle, a new romance and a formerly mate begins to ejects the young people from the apartment because he became a brilliant now. The young people live dreaming of their tomorrow at the lower levels in New York. And this movie incorporates present-day themes such AIDS and homosexuality. The last scene incorporates love, sadness and hope at a friend’s death and a new departure. The young people have a strong feeling for each other but they think that they lead a free and uninhibited life from the world. They gradually make gentle friendships and romances but they are addicted to drugs, are suffering from AIDS, can’t pay rent of the apartment every month. All dramatis personae believe friends, help each other and live as hard as they could even if they are very poor, contract AIDS and are homosexual.

This time, I watched this movie “RENT” for the first time. I’m happy I could meet with it. I was such an impressed that I had gooseflesh from the opening song. The musical speak for mental cry for the young people and the musical was very moving. The story is fairly simple but it was a profound meaning. I was very interested in how each character changed their way of life for one year. I could think that I’m going to work harder at something as hard as I could from now on after I watched this movie. And it gave me love, courage and vitality because I can really felt feeling “I want to live tomorrow!” That’s why I felt that I’m happy only live now. I thought that live as hard as oneself day by day is very important even if difficulty happens. I didn’t think that this movie is very old because the theme of this movie is present-day problems in Japan butthis movie was shown in the old days. And I felt that this movie was very interesting because there were a lot of songs and the characters were very individualistic. I wanted to sing together in the middle of the movie because the songs and dances the actors did were very wonderful and the harmony of songs were very beautiful. I was intoxicated by the wonderful songs. I learned a lot of important things on my life from this movie. I want people who are worried about life and haven’t watched this movie yet to watch it by all means. I would like to watch it when I will be worried about my life in the future.

Movie Review: "The Sixth Sense"

This time, I’m going to introduce everybody to the movie “The Sixth Sense”. This movie is an American suspense and horror story and this movie was awarded a lot of prizes from at the Academy Awards.

 At first, I’m going to introduce the outline of this movie. This movie is a story of a boy who has visions and the Psychiatrist who helps him. The name of the boy is Cole and the name of a Psychiatrist is Malcolm. Cole is told that he is an abnormal person from all the students and teachers and he spends days with his mother because he has visions. That’s why Malcolm wants to help him one way or another. Presently Cole confided his secret and troubles to Malcolm. And Cole can see the deceased and Psychiatrist who injured his heart gradually exchange their secrets with each other. Cole says the deceased always have him do something. It is to get Cole to grant the deceased’s wish. They would like him to do it and they want to be cured. After all, he gets the best of his troubles and he could confide his secret and troubles to his mother. But Malcolm has been worried about his wife and Cole gave Malcolm advice that he should speak to her when she is sleeping on the bed. Malcolm followed his advice and spoke to her while she is sleeping. Whereupon she talked in her sleep “why did he die leaving me?” At that very moment he understood everything. He was trapped in this world because he has feelings for his wife and regrets for a patient. And he went to Heaven because he satisfied his wish.

This time, I saw “The Sixth Sense” for the first time. I think that this movie is the best reversal among I have seen until now. I didn’t become aware in the least that Malcolm is a dead person until I saw the last scene. Maybe I am insensible because my friend became aware of the end before me. I felt it was a strange story because Malcolm was shot by a gun from a patient at the beginning and the time flew quickly. But I didn’t expect such a reversal in the last scene. I was very surprised and I had goosebumps. That’s why I assented that people who saw this movie don’t explain the end at any cost like was said at the beginning. And I became aware that Malcolm is a dead person who gets Cole to grant the deceased’s wish after I saw this movie. I could understand the fact and I really liked the story. I was very impressed by the last scene but I have some questions. So, I would like to see this movie once more again and I will be able to see it from a different point of view next time. At the start, I was thinking that “The Sixth Sense” is sure to be a very dreadful movie because I knew this movie is a suspense and horror story. That’s why I saw this movie with a pounding heart. However, this movie was very heart moving story. I think that this movie is full of moving stories rather than being a suspense and horror story.

My favorite animals


This time, I'm going to introduce about my favorite animals. They are rabbit and tortoise. From the outset I have been dislike animals like dogs and cats. Especially, I hate dogs because I have a trauma.

When I was in the first grader of elementary school, I was chased by a dog and I run as hard as I could as I cried on my way home. I have been hate small dogs and big dogs since then. I was chased by a very small dog quite recently when I threw out the garbege on the morning. I run as fast as I could.

By the way, I like rabbit and tortoise though I dislike animals. Because I kept them in the old days. Especially, I was very good to a rabbit. I kept her when I was a child attending kindergarten. I often cutted cabbage and feeded her. She was very cute and my friend. She was a female and her name was “Maru-chan”. I was very good to her when I was a child attending kindergarten. But she was eaten by a weasel and dead when my sister took a walk with Maru-chan on my garden. My sister said that a weasel came flying and caught Maru-chan. I had gone out to a zoological garden at that time. My sister was shedding tears. It was very cruelty. If I will have something pet in the future, I would like to have a rabbit once more. I will be able to very good to a rabbit at any cost but I’m afraid of another animals.

Next, I’m going to talk about tortoise. I had the tortoise when I was an elementary schoolchild. The tortoise was maybe female and I forgot the name. I’m awfully sorry I don’t have memory so much about her. But I remember that she was very small and very cute. I often feed her at that time. And she’d gone without our nothing it, she was maybe away on a trip. Because I set a ladder against a wall on the house of her and she climbed up a ladder, flight from the house.

And I had some hamsters when I was an elementary schoolchild. They were very quickly at the start. That’s why I and my mother and my sister had a lot of trouble them. But I gradually felt them very cute and they became used to my house and gentle. And they had become numb and dead when it was winter. I felt sorry for them. But I don’t think that I would like to have hamster so much once more in the future.

Now, my mother and sister say that they want to have a cat or a bulldog or a pug on my house. But such animals are hard for me and my father. We have been afraid of them until now. I would like to get the best of animals early. I’m not able to touch and stroke animals. And I haven’t thought that animals were very cute so much until now. I understand that I’m seriously ill about animals. That’s why I would like to get the best of them by all means.

My favorite countries


This time, I'm going to introduce about my favorite countries. I would like to get trip to some countries. They are Spain, Maldives, Peru and Brazil. At the first, I'm going to talk about Spain. The reason I want to go trip to Spain is that I want to see Temple Expiatori de la Sagrada Familia. It's an unfinished work by Antoni Gaudi and a world heritage. And I saw the news recently that Temple Expiatori de la Sagrada Familia is planed to complete on 2026. When I will be 34 years, it will be completed. I would like to see it in the future by all means. Next, I'm going to talk about Maldives. There is very beautiful sea, so I want to swim in there. I would like to go to Maldives on a honeymoon in the future. I think that Maldives is so wonderful country but I don’t know about Maldives in detail. I love the country where has beautiful sea. I would like to swim with a lot of beautiful fish in the future. It isn’t for that purpose but I would like to get married and go to Maldives on a honeymoon with my dear husband in the future. Next, I’m going to talk about Peru. The reason I want to go trip to there is that I want to go to Salar de Uyuni. This is a lake made in salt. That’s why taste is salty when people lick. And this lake has very beautiful superb view is like a mirror with sky and ground. The beauty takes your breath away. I would like to go to Salar de Uyuni before I die in the future. But I’m afraid of going trip to there because Peru is not safe and dangerous. That’s why I would like to go trip to there with tour guides. Lastly, I’m going to talk about Brazil. The reason I want to go trip to there is that I want to watch soccer World Cup in 2014. I want to cheer Japanese delegation. I have watched the game of Japanese delegation in Saitama stadium with my sister last year but I know nothing about soccer’s rule. But I have my favorite soccer players. They are Keisuke Honda, Atsuto Uchida. They are so cool and very popular in Japan. I know nothing about their skill but everybody say that their soccer skill is very good. I think very wonderful that they live and play in each foreign country. For example, Keisuke Honda lives and plays in Russia with his wife and child. Atsuto Uchida lives and plays in Germany and he lives a single life. I always want to follow their example that achieve emotional autonomy and mental condition is very strong. I would like to go trip to Brazil and watch World Cup if it’s possible but I know nothing about soccer rule.

My favorite ice cream


This time, I'm going to introduce about my favorite ice creams. They are Haagen-Dazs, Yukimi Daifuku: Yukimi-a soft rice cake stuffed with sweetened bean jam, ice cream steamed bun, cold stone and super cup ice cream. At the first, Haagen-Dazs is very popular ice cream all over the world but they are expensive, so I can't often buy them. They sell some season term ice creams recently. They are purple potato taste, pumpkin taste and powdered green tea and azuki bean taste. Every taste ice creams look so delicious I want to eat the all taste ice creams early. When I go to home of my grandparents, I always eat more than two Haagen-Dazs ice creams because my grandfather bought them and wait for me. I appreciate him. Next, Yukimi Daifuku: Yukimi-a soft rice cake stuffed with sweetened bean jam also sell a season term ice cream recently. Yukimi Daifuku is the outside is rice cake and contents are ice cream. The new merchandise is that contents are chocolate cookie ice cream. It looks so delicious. Next, I’m going to talk about cold stone ice cream. I ate it in Tokyo for the first time. I was very surprised how to wait on customers at that time because the shop assistants sing a song while they cook ice cream which customers ordered. I was at a loss what to do while the shop assistants sing a song, the first thing I smiled at that time. I think that the price is expensive for ice cream but ice cream has luxury than any other ice creams and cold stone ice cream was very delicious. Cold stone ice cream shop doesn’t open in Kumamoto but one convenience store sells the ice cream. The price is about as same as Haagen-Dazs ice cream. But I have never bought cold stone ice cream in the convenience store yet. Cold stone ice cream shop opens in Fukuoka, I want to go to there and listen to songs the shop assistants sings once more. And I want to listen, beating time with my hands. I’m going to drop in at the shop when I go to shopping in Fukuoka next time. Lastly, I’m going to talk about super cup ice cream. It has a lot of kinds of taste. For example, super cup ice cream has vanilla, chocolate, powdered green tea, cheese cake, chocolate chip, chestnut, and so on. Especially, my favorite tastes are cheese cake and chocolate chip. They are so delicious. But super cup ice cream is a large amount. That’s why I often have plenty when I eat it halfway and sometimes I suffer from a stomachache after I eat all. That’s why I have to pay attention my physical condition and consult with my stomach when I want to eat it no matter what.

My favorite season


This time, I'm going to introduce about my favorite season. It's winter because I love Christmas and cold. The cold weather has set in, I'm so excite. Cities are beauty and brightly illuminated. I was given Christmas present from Santa Claus until I was in the six grades. I was the happiest Christmas present is a pink car that Barbie dolls ride. I was very surprised at that time. I have been displayed the pink car in my room until now. I had been believed the existence of Santa Clause until I was in the fourth grade. By the way, I worked my part-time job on Christmas Eve and Christmas last year. I finished working my part-time job and came back home as usual but I didn't eat Christmas cake because I was on a diet to I weared a long-sleeved kimono on a coming-of-age celebration. I wanted to wear my long-sleeved kimono on that day with lean and beautiful figure. I wanted to wear my maximum figure all the more because my father bought expensive long-sleeved kimono for me. And I succeed on my diet. My family and relative were all very happy for me to see in my moment of triumph. I was very happy too. I could a lot of my dear friends on that day and I could enjoy. I went to my old school after the ceremony with my friends. There is hold on an alumnae on a coming-of-age celebration every year. I could a lot of my dear friends and teachers, took a lot of photographs. I spent very happy time. Next, I’m going to talk about my schedule on this winter. I’m going to work on my part-time job on Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, the end of the year and the last day of the year. My schedule on this winter is the same as it was last year. Because I don’t have my boyfriend, all my friends have their boyfriends and everywhere will be crowded of families and couples. There is no use in complaining now. That’s why I’m going to work as hard as I could. But I eat luxurious Christmas cake and Kentucky fried chicken on Christmas season this year because the work will must be very busy on the end of the year. Especially, the work will must be like a hell on the last day of the year. But I want to work as hard as I could because it’s time when I will be able to earn a lot of money the best in a year. And I go to houses of my grandparents, I’m looking forward to go to there on the New Year every year. But I hadn’t got a lot of New Year’s presents from my relatives yet. And of course, I will work on my part-time job on the New Year next year. But I want to go to shopping and see Hakone long-distance relay race next year. I want to try going to shopping on the New Year but my weak point is crowd. Lastly, I’m going to talk my favorite foods on winter. They are pumpkin and chestnut. Especially, now I love and want to eat pumpkin every day. I hadn’t liked pumpkin so much before but suddenly I loved it. Recently, I ate pumpkin bread, salad, food boiled and seasoned and ice cream. I ate pumpkin bread on my breakfast this morning. Of course, it was very delicious. I’m very happy when I eat pumpkin and chestnut.

My favorite high school memories

This time, I'm going to introduce about my favorite high school memories. I graduated from a high school three years ago. It's Kumamoto Daiichi high school. When I was a high school student, every student is all girl but there were a lot of men teacher. Ordinally, the school was a coeducational high school but boys weren't entering there. However it has been a coeducational high school in the true sense of the world from 2 years ago. I can't believe that boys in the class in my old school but I was very happy that I could live on the girl's school. Girl's school is apt to think that it will be happened a lot of bullying but it was absolutely nothing of bullying. My old school is so wonderful. I would like to introduce everybody about wonderful of my old school. At the first, it is built in the Kumamoto castle, in other words, it's on the land in the Kumamoto castle. So, my old school is very beautiful and the view is also very beautiful. Of course, people can see the Kumamoto castle from the school. I have been pride of that my old school is built in the Kumamoto castle until now. Next, the mixed chorus is very beautiful. The students always sing a school song in a cappella when the meeting is started. A chorus contest is hold every year and the every student practice as hard as they could. When I was a high school student, every class practiced when before the class on morning, after school and holidays. I had camped together for training chorus when I was a first grade. They have been good old memories for me until now. Then, bow is very long. When I entered the high school, the whole school was taught how to bow because how to bow in the school is very peculiar. It is very long. The whole school has to bow their head low about for three second. It is one of the tradition. Lastly, a lot of alumnae are very particular. For example, they telephone the school and preach at the principal when the alumnae see the students have short skirts, go to a karaoke and game centers. The alumnae have absolute power than the teachers about the school. So, I was very afraid of the alumnae when I was a high school student. I didn’t know where and when they watch the students. But I have been loved my old school until now. I love my friends who I met in the school, strict rules, kindly my teachers, beautiful school, beautiful chorus, fearful alumnae and the uniform. I think many times that I want to return when I was a high school student. So, I often walk on the outskirts of the school on my way home.
