BR 1-01: The Story of Castles

Everyone knows that fairytale kings and queens live in castles. (p. 3)

This book is about  only 1,000years ago, real loads and ladies living in castles and their incredible story, from the first wooden tower to the crumbling ruins.

The lords tried to build some castles. However, it isn't so easy. That' because during the war. Finally, loads and ladies had no choice but to decide not to live in cold, dark, noisy castles. That's a little sad story although it is my opinion. Still, the knights fought bravely, and the people was so happy because they could eat stuffed peacocks, roast swans, spiced vension pie, and cakes etc... , so I think this book is great.

My hobbies 2011.4.20

I will talk about my hobbies. My hobbies are cycling and driving. I go to Kamitori Arcade and Shimotori Arcade by bicycle. I think what an amazing city it is. I also like to drive. I usually go to Hakata City in Fukuoka. Hakata City has 229 shops. No other shop is more than it although it’s my opinion. It is difficult for Tenjin to keep their department stores. It is sad news for me because Tenjin is less popular than used to be. However, Kumamoto is much easier to live than Hakata. Don’t you think so? I want you to love Kumamoto.

2011.4.15 Music I like

I will talk about my favorite European artists. The name is Dave Rodgers. He is Italian although he seems to be an American. My favorite song is Dreaming of you which is made by him. And it is used as an opening theme of Japanese animation. I also ring of fire and red core, which are songs made by him. His songs make me happy and moved, so why don't you listen to Dave Rodgers’ great songs? You may be a fun of him, although it is my opinion.

My Treasures

I will tell you my treasures. First treasure is Kumamoto City. I have some reasons.

I think that it is much easier to live in than Osaka and other cities in Japan.

There are many stores, arcades, foods, and spots. For example, there is Tsuruya Department Store, Daiei, Kenmin Department Store, and PARCO. Kumamoto City also has four arcades. One is Shimotori Arcade which is the most famous one in Central and Southern Kyusyu. Another is Kamitori Arcade which is near Hitsuyukan Senior High School and Kumamoto Central Senior High School. They are major arcades. The others are small arcades. SUNROAD is the smallest arcade of the three. It is near Karashima Park and Kenmin Department Store. However, there is smaller arcade than SUNROAD in Kumamoto City. The name is PIACRES. There is in Kengun Town. PIACRES has many small shops. Because it is nearby Kumamoto Daini Senior High School, its students often go there. Do you know the famous foods in Kumamoto? For example, Korean Candy, Natto, Basashi, and Tai Pin Yeng are pretty famous, so why don’t you try?

Kumamoto City has many sister city. For example, Heidelberg (Germany), San Antonio (USA), and Guilin (China) are sister cities, so Chinese and Korean usually visit here.

Next, I will tell you my second treasure. It is Tenjin which is called the core of Kyusyu and Fukuoka. For example, there are IMS, Fukuoka Mitsukoshi, Daimaru, PARCO, VIVRE, and Daiei SHOPPERS Fukuoka. However, Tenjin is not what it used to be because JR Hakata City Building opened this March. Hakata City Building has 229 shops. For example, there are Hakata Hankyu Department Store, Ming, and City Dining. Because of it, Daiei SHOPPERS Fukuoka has already decided to be closed on July 10^{th 2011}. I was pretty sad because I have wanted to go there and it has been loved as a symbol of Fukuoka since 1971. Although I want to visit Daiei SHOPPERS Fukuoka once, I cannot. The reason why is that I have much homework to do. If you are free in this Golden Week, why don’t you go there? That’s because this is the first and last chance for you. See you my favorite spot. I remember it forever even if I die.

My Favorite Place in Kumamoto City

I 'll tell you my favorite place in Kumamoto City. It is You Me Town SANPIAN. I have some reasons.

First of all is that the foods prices are pretty cheap. It seems to be the cheapest supermarket in this city. According to the people, The prices are as cheap as discount stores. I go there three times a week. I think that no other store is cheaper than You Me Town SANPIAN.

Next reason is that foods freshness is high although the freshness is not No.1. Without good freshness, quality, and cheapness, it would be closed.

The final reason is that I can see many sports cars. For example, there are RX-7, Lancer Evolution and S2000 etc... On Every Friday, they gather in SANPIAN. I'm happy that there is You Me Town nearby Kumamoto IC.        

I'm planning to go there because Cheap Tuesday is held tomorrow. If you have a chance to visit it, why don't you do so?

The place I like in Kurume City and Saga City

I will tell you the place I like in Kurume City. First of all, the place I will tell you is Kurume's Daiei Gourmet City (DGC).It is a kind of supermarkets. If I have a chance to visit it, I want to do so because I have never gone there and because Kurume's DGC is  the nearest supermarket by Saga of all Daiei. It is pretty nearby Kurume City Office and Kurume Station, so the people from other prefecture or other city can go to DGC. What a convenient it is!!

Next, I wii tell you another place. It is AEON Saga Yamato.  It is pretty famous. It used to be the strongest supermarket in Saga City. However, present No.1 is You Me Town Saga (You Me Saga). Although the former is nearby the expressway,the latter is the largest shopping center, so not only the local people but Fukuoka's people also visit YouMe Saga. I want many more people to know Aeon Saga Yamato and come there. I want it not to be closed because I have visited it  since I was grade 5.
