There was a blinding flash and a deafening bang. The Beast disappeared. A second later, there was another, brighter flash and an even louder bang. Kneeling before her was a handsome prince. “You were in my dream…and in the painting!” cried Beauty. [p58]

This is very romantic story. I was very fond of Sleeping Beauty from a young age. When I was a child, I did not know the story. I like fairies and cute song. Sleeping Beauty is called Aurora Princess by around the people. Sleeping Beauty was taken magic. Princess was sleeping. But Sleeping Beauty was kissed by Prince. Princess got up. He and she married. It is happy end. This story is very good. See you.

The child was lifted up on his father’s shoulders, so he could see the emperor in all his glory. “Ooh!” said the child. “The emperor’s got nothing on!” Everyone around the child fell silent and looked at the emperor again. [p41]

An emperor loved closes. Especially he likes new clothes. He chooses today’s close everyday. One day, two swindlers came to emperor house. “We can make magical clothes!” said they. But it is lie. Emperor had fooled. He walks around naked outside. I think this emperor is credulous. But he is very good person. And he is very pretentious. He has high pride. We should take care not to fall. See you.

And along the way home, he takes in cat and fox. He suffers dangerous a lot. One day, Pinocchio is swallowed by big fish. There is Gepetto in there. Then Miracle happened. Pinocchio become human.

“Then all the other flowers opened and tiny men and women appeared. They each gave Thumbelina a gift. Best of all was a beautiful pair of wings, so she could fly from flower to flower. And the swallow swooped above them all, singing a joyful song. [p47]

A woman wanted a child. She can not make a child. Then a fairy appeared. The fairy gives woman to magic seed. Woman brought flowers to care. This flower becomes tulip. When this tulip opened, tiny girl appeared. Woman calls her Thumbelina. The woman made her a bed out of a walnut shell. It had rose petals for sheets.

I read Cinderella.

“Cinderella smiled. “Oh yes!” she replied. At that moment, there was a puff of smoke and Felicity flew into the room. She held her wand above her head and a starry mist swirled around them all. “Time for a little more magic,” she declared.”[p45]

Cinderella is one of the famous stories. This story is loved by children around the world. Cinderella is very beautiful girl. But she is bullied by her sisters. I think that she is miserable. Her sister goes to dance party. But Cinderella is left behind at home. She was crying. Then Witch appeared. Cinderella transformed a dress. Cinderella goes to dance party. She met prince in there. Cinderella must go home at 12:00am. She dropped the glass slipper. Next day, prince finds the owner of the glass slipper. Prince found glass slipper’s owner. The owner is Cinderella!

I read Alice in Wonderland.

"By now, Alice had grown to her fullsize. "You're noting but a pack of cards!" she scoffed. At this, the whole pack rose into the air and came flying down open her."[p62]

This story is very interesting. This story has humor. I like this story. Alice is very cute. I think that this story is bizarre and Alice is confused. Alice is honest. Wonderland is a fun place. This story is Alice’s dream. I know Alice in wonderland’s quote.

"Would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here?"
"That depends a good deal on where you want to get to," said the Cat.
"I don't much care where--" said Alice.
"Then it doesn't matter which way you go," said the Cat.
"--so long as I get somewhere," Alice added as an explanation.
"Oh, you're sure to do that," said the Cat,
"if you only walk long enough."

This quote is famous. I like Nursery rhyme. It is one of the my favorite story. See you.

essay6 [after]

We like KGU where we belong, because it is in Kumamoto city. We like Kumamoto very much. But this is only one of many reasons why we like our university.

At the first, KGU prepares comfortable facilities to study for students who go to our university. For example, it prepares dormitories regard of sex, lodgings, and introductions of articles whose price is very low for students who can’t go from their home.

And there are 14 buildings and 10 smoking spaces in KGU’s campus. The numbers of smoking spaces are more than usual numbers that there are in other universities.

The 1st building has an lounge called English-Lounge where we can talk with and play games with international students and foreign teachers. Many students who want to enjoy there visit there from Monday to Friday. If you hope that you enjoy there, would you go there? The 3rd building has only classes where students who go to this university study. The 4th building has classes to study and the student affairs section. The staffs introduce us many kinds of part-time jobs there. They also keep lost articles. So we can easily find them. The 7th building has a school lunchroom in the first floor. There are many delicious and cheap dishes, so many students go there to have lunch. The 8th building is called Gakuseikaikan. There is a a convenience store in the first floor of this. It is a very popular convenience store in Japan. There are a beauty salon and a store of a travel agency business and an information desk whose staffs introduce people who want to live alone. The 11th building has classes to study and the Department of School Affairs. If we worry about classes, you should go here. The 12th building has a bakery and a book store whose name is Maruzen. There are many delicious breads in the bakery, so it is very popular among students who go to this university. And we can buy snacks and books cheaper than usual prices in Maruzen. The 14th building are recently built. There are classes to study and a space where there are many personal computers to do reports. The library of this university has rooms where we can watch movies, and seats where we can listen to music, rooms where we can study with group’s members, barrier free designs. So this is chosen the third most wonderful library all of libraries of Japanese universities. In addition, there are some spaces where we can take exercise in this university. For example, we can play tennis in the ten tennis courts. In a word, the area of our university can enable these articles to build.

And our university is covered with some trees. In spring and summer, our university is covered with green because of them. In the autumn, our university is covered with yellow because they make ginkgoes open.

In addition, our university is surrounded with many convenient shops. For example, there are some cafes, three convenient stores, and two restaurants. Two of three convenient stores are Family Mart and Seven Eleven. They complete with Lowson, so they are very popular in Japan. And two restaurants have many cheap dishes, so we like them. Some clubs often go there after club activities.

Professors in our universities are very wonderful and very kind. They are also very good at teaching us. They often answer our questions except classes because of their kindness.

As a second reason, we like Kumamoto where I have grown up. There are many fashionable clothes and many fashionable accessories in many fashionable shops that be anxious about their interior. Exactly I like fashion, but it’s not only reason why I like Kumamoto’s shop, because there are many fashionable staffs that are very good at being considerate of guests and talking with. So I like them very much.

In the center of Kumamoto city, there are many cafes and many bar where we can eatdelicious foods. I have two bars that I like very much. I can’t tell you name without allowing by the owner whose name is Sachi. He is very cool and funny, so he is always liked by guests who often go there. He sometimes chooses guests who can join there. If you want to go there, why don’t you look for? But the bar is filled with 5 or 6 persons. Another bar’s name is Jeff’s bar. It’s very popular among students who go to KGU, because the bar’s owner is Mr. Jeff. He is a teacher who teaches us how to write in English. He is very kind and funny. And I’m cheer for Mr. Jeff. He is very popular because of his characteristic among students who go to KGU.

That’s why we can comfortably study and enjoy. Else students who go to other universities often envy our university. We have other many reasons why we like this university, but we finish all today. If we have a chance that I introduce, we’ll try it! See you!
