My favorite band on TV!

Yesterday, I watched the TV show, "ROCKET COMPLEX" which is an access program in Kumamoto because my favorite band got on the TV show. The band is "the pillows".

International

I went to International Dome last Friday to see exchange students and to ask their schedules.

"How do you like Wednessday?"

Today, I bought a new DVD, "How do you like Wednesday?(Suiyou doudesyo)"!!

Fireworks

Fireworks displays were held in my favorite place, Yatsushitro on October 20th and this year is the 20th show of annual event. A lot of the workmen from around Japan participate this exhibition every year and they display their own fireworks and compete in the event.
I found some different type of fireworks in the event and learnt that. For example, "Star Mine" in Japan or "Mine" in other country is firework which is displayed consistently, so the type of firework is like a star. Also "Jyugoudama" (10号玉) means the large of the firework, so the large is about 330 centimeters. Last, I watched "Music fireworks" which is desplayed with music.
Anyway, those fireworks were so beautiful, so I had some pictures. [125 words]

[93 words]

Andy, an owner of toys, gets a new toy one day. It is Buzz, Space Ranger. He is the latest one of all Andy's toys. Therefore, he has a lot of functions which they had never seen. Andy gets to like him about such as qualities and looks. Woody, his favorite toy, thinks he is the most favorite toy of all Andy's ones. However, Buzz becomes his favorite toy. Then, Woody is dissatisfied with it. He does various things in order that Andy gets to like him better than Woody.

In Toy Story, there were 2 interesting scenes for me. The one is that Andy's toys moved and talked each other only when he went to bed. There was an unspoken understanding, which is that his toys mustn't remind people that they can move and talk, among them. Therefore, they kept the secret. Personally, I thought they were great about it. If I were them, I would reveal the secret someday. The other is Woody's behavior after he got Buzz. Woody held his ground desperately. This was very impressive for me. Then, when I watched the scene, I thought I knew how he felt. [266 words]

Professor Layton and the Demon box

My father bought a problem-solving game. My father is interested in such a brain game. The title is "Professor Layton and the Demon box". The game is the second part game. I played the game and I thought that some question was hard for me and I sometimes took mistakes. There are over 150 questions and they are so profound. Moreover, other interesting thing is voice actors, for example Yo Oizumi, Maki Horikita, and so on. We can get more new questions with Wi-Fi connection every week. If we cannot understand the answer of the question, it may be a good way to visit a web site like this. Many players will help us with hints.

Such game will be popular among elder people and young people.[116words]

'Skype'

I write about a technology of Internet. It is 'Skype'. I think that it is a kind of telephone system which used Internet. My friend told me that and I bought headphones with a mike, but I have never used it to talk to him. I made a call to the test station in England where I can listen to what I said as a test. I found that it was useful because it did not cost any money except electric bill, but it is unuseful because there is no guarantee of talking to the person at any time.
However, I was surprised the member of Skype. The system is used by all over the world, so many foreigners also use it. User can use the search system to find a tele-pal on the Skype, but I think it is not safe but a little dangerous.[146 words]
