Why I can't use computers better.
Introduction: I will write about learning with computers. I don’t like to use it because I don’t understand how to use it soon and I don’t know its manuals even if I read it. I need much time before I can use it smoothly. I have trouble because I don’t know how do I use it. So, I would like to introduce what I should attention when I use it.
Body
Reading: It’s easier for me to read than to read books. However, I have worry about to fall our eyes sight. To use computers to read is bad for our health.
Writing: I think that writing with computers is easy. So, I can write daily on my blog. I didn’t write on my diary of book because I have my blog. However, I think that writing with computers has bad point, so is to forget word’s spell. When I sometimes write a diary on my blog, I have this feeling. So, I should write words on your notebook if possible.
Listening: I was helped by my personal computer because I can listen to music with it. I hardly have a chance to listen it because there is no music player at my room. Before I go to bed, I listen to English educational CD while I don’t listen it when I was study. So, It is important for me in my life.
Viewing
・Youtube: I sometimes use youtube, which is animated sight on website. When I use website, I watch movies or music videos with it. Youtube is gone public the entire world.
・Use the dictionary: My personal computer has functions of dictionary which are Japanese- English dictionary and English- Japanese dictionary. It is convenient for me to use it because it is easier to use a computer than to use a dictionary of book.
Speaking: I have never used a function of speaking with foreigners with computers. I heard this story from my friend. She is proficient about it so, she can speak with foreigners.
The reason why I can’t use it well: I have three reasons why I don’t use the computers. First, I think that I don’t understand slang about computers when I read the manual. Second, I can’t type keys quickly. Third, I don’t understand complex functions. I can’t know them even if I ask people how to use it.
Improvement about it: I have improvement because I know reasons about it. So is to use it every day. I will become to understand it if I use it everyday. I will get accustomed to use it everyday. It is important for me to keep using it because I will forget how to use it.
Conclusion: I can know what to use computers are important for us. I can use my personal computer, recently because I use it every Writing class. However, I don’t know how to use other computers, which are DVD recorder and cell phones. I will have to use it after I become a member of society. So, now I have to understand about them. I think I want to study them while I am student. (527 words)

Let's watch news programs
Introduction
I will write about News programs because I like to watch it more than to read newspapers. Another reason why I like it is that I can believe it more than some magazines and gossips. Today, news programs have some various topics, which are sports news, things of trend, movies be released and so on. Each news programs have original and difference characters. From now, I would like to introduce about them.
~Kind of news program~
・New 23 (national) This news program was broadcasted in every night. Recently, the main caster had changed because he had had cancer.
・Mezamashi T.V (national): “Mezamashi” mean that we can wake up. I think that most of my friends watch it in each morning.
・Zoom in Asa (national): My favorite news program at morning.
・Bankisya (national): This program is sent on air on Sunday afternoon. My father likes it. I also watch it because a beautiful actress appears as a caster in the program.
・Televitamin (local): I like this program because I can watch it and some casters speak Kumamoto dialects. Before, a man making up like an old woman appeared in this news program but, he died recently. His name is Battenarakawa.
Body
~Good points~
Local news programs: Local news programs have good points. First, there are some interesting sections, which are games with audience. Everybody can take part in this game. This game’s rule is what we watch it on T.V when casters make a phone call to us. So, we have to answer some questions which casters ask. So, we can get goods when we can pass some questions. I thought to do the games is good because many audience can take part in the news program. Second, we can know about local today’s news. I will not to be able to know local news when I didn’t watch it. So, I should not watch only national news programs.
National news programs: I like also national news programs because I can know foreign country’s news and international situations. I will not to be able to know without not to watch it. It is important for me to watch it in my life. I ‘m interested in environmental problems, which is environmental destructions and ecology services. I always pay attention about them.
~Bad points~
Local news programs: The bad points are not to be able to watch foreign news and I like games on afternoon news program but, people who don’t like it might say that “I don’t like this TV program.
National news programs: I don’t like to watch except news on the morning. For example, on the morning news program is broadcasted about fashionable things. I should broadcast more important things which are yesterday’s news and today’s top news.
~Worst news program~: The worst news program is News Zero. I don’t like this TV program because I don’t like its name and casters. I don’t know why the news program has the name which makes me associate with empty. It is hard for me to listen sometimes because some of them are not caster. Their main work is actress or singer. So, I don’t like it.
Conclusion
I notice difference between local and national TV program when I finished writing this essay. So is detail and quality. Local programs are broadcasted more detail than national programs. However, it also has good point, which is broadcasted about foreign news. We can watch it even if we stay in Kumamoto. Each news programs have some good points. So, I know that we must use them perfectly when we need them. (601words)

Our town in now
We live in Kumamoto. So, what I stay in Kumamoto is to live a community life for me. The place where I live in has some good points. They are nature and culture. We are proud of about them. Now, we have some good things but, we must think about what better improving of Kumamoto in the future. Accordingly, I want to tell you about my future plane of Kumamoto.
Body
Characteristic of Kumamoto in now
Nature
(caldera)
There are some natures in Kumamoto. First, Mt. Aso has the biggest caldera on top of the mountain in the world. I have ever been to there only one time However, I can’t see it because the mountain has much smock. The smoke is not good for our health. So, I couldn’t see the caldera.
(waterfall)
I know what a beautiful waterfall is in Kumamoto. In summer, you will feel cold close to it and in winter, you will be able to see so beautiful waterfall frozen and it is like a large crystal.
(Kumamoto castle )
Kumamoto castle was built before 400 years. Its owner was Kato Kiyomasa. He was a famous soldier in Kumamoto. We are proud of him because to be able to live in here is to thanks to him. So, the festival was opening all this year round what we don’t forget him.
Traffic
I don’t like Kumamoto’s traffic systems because it has some dangerous and inconvenient. Especially, many streets are so narrow. When I was on the bicycle, I was hit by bicycle sometimes. I should change the system.
I said that about dangerous of Kumamoto’s traffic. However, I love to get on a street car because I had used them to go to downtown with my family or a cousin. I think that the system is dangerous but, it will become convenient if we can use it well.
~Kumamoto in the future~
Social welfare
We must make social welfare system full before we remake each city. I heard from my friend studying in social welfare subject that, in Kumamoto, there are few welfare facilities in our town. For example, sidewalk has many steps and slopes are located in Kumamoto station but, they don’t function. Because, they are so steep slope and physically handicapped persons can’t go through it. So, we should change the systems.
About criminals
Today, there are many criminals in Japan. Especially, traffic accidents always might happen us. We must be careful not to do traffic accident. I think that walkers and drivers should watch each of them when they are in outside. So, our city will change better peaceful community life.
Conclusion
I noticed that many people must do now. I knew that we must make a country where people can live in peace. I think that there is no it in the world. However, we have some technique to make new things. We must use it now. If we use the skills to improve our society, a community life will be better. (507 words)

To be important for me
Introduction
I have some favorite places where I can do relax in. Sometimes I go to the places when I was tired. The places make me do happy and give me power to study English. If I lost my favorite places, I can’t live a happy life. So, I love the places.
Movie Theater
The reason why I like the place is that movie theater are places where I feel comfortable. I often go there to relax and to be alone. However, I go to the movie theater with my friends when I watch scary movies or violence movies.
Library
I have three reasons why I like library. First reason is to keep quiet in library when I read books in there sometimes. When I do my home work, I feel helpful because I can concentrate in library. Second reason is to KUG library has books about librarian course. It is easy for me to research with books because I take librarian course. This course teacher gives us homework with special books or library index being in second floor. Then I can do smoothly homework. So, I like library. Third reason is that KUG library has many kinds of books. I must read books written in English. However, there are books written in each language. For example, this library does not have only books written in English, but also has Russian, Garman and French books. I want to read someday because I am interested in some languages.
On my bicycle
I feel relaxing on my bicycle because I like to ride on one. However, I have more reason. So, the reason why I like on my bicycle is to like to have a blow. When I ride on my bicycle, I can feel comfortable. I can’t run fast because I hate to exercise. However, I like this place because I can move fast.
Conclusion
I think that each people have best places and the favorite places are not always important for another people. However, we can know another people’s favorite places. So, I think that to understand another people’s mind is very important. My favorite places are important for me to live my life even if it is not important for many people. If you have a chance to spend in my favorite places, you will understand my mind. I will read classmate’s blogs because I want to know theirs mind.

Famous people in Kumamoto
Natume Souseki
He was a famous novelist in Japan. He stayed in Kumamoto because he taught English in Kumamoto University. He was wrote many novels before he died forty nine years old. His works are “Bottyan”, “I’m a cat”, “Sanshiro”, and “Kokoro”. They are read by many people now. I think his works is so difficult for me when I read them. Because he had an experience that he lived in Great Britain, I am interested in his novels.
Isao Yukisada
He is a movie director. He was born in Kumamoto and graduated from Kumamoto Daini high school. Most popular of his works is “GO”. He became very famous because he made it. I like his movies. Especially, my favorite one is “Spring Snow” because I have ever read the original novel. This movie’s image and story is very good. I made my mind move when I finished to watch this movie. If you have a chance, you should watch it.
Character in Kumamoto people
People living in Kumamoto has a character which many people mains other people’s careers. Most of them ask people’s careers even if they have never met before. I think we must not decide people’s character with several careers because we should be fair.
Dialect in Kumamoto
In Kumamoto, there are some words which are spoken in only Kumamoto. There are many Kumamoto dialects in here. Kumamoto dialect is like with other prefecture in Kyusyu. If you went to Fukuoka, you can understand what people say. Then I often speak with Kumamoto dialect because I was born in Kumamoto. My favorite Kumamoto dialect is “tai”. Most of us speak “tai” in place of “dayo” in a sentence of the end. I’m proud of Kumamoto dialect because I like them. So, I want to keep speaking Kumamoto dialect if I live in other place.

There are some events because Kumamoto castle was built for four hundreds years ago. Every year, in Knmamoto castle has same festivals to see cherry blossoms and morning glory. However, this year’s events are held special festivals which are Japanese traditional dances in every season. I want to appreciate the dance because I have never seen it.

Second, the bad point is continuing warm untill October. Kumamoto doesn't have fall. Last summer, It was not fall and soon came winter.

In winter, Shiraito will have frozen compretly.It is also beautiful.
I know a good point more. So there is a Kumamoto castle. When I was a high school student, I could watch it from the high school. I am proud of it and architect.
Kumamoto has some bad point but it has many good points. Even if it has bad points, I don't mind it because I love Kumamoto's good points better than bad points.
