-Summary-
What are the most important things in life? You have to fall in love. You have to go to war. You have to be poor. Nobody’s life is complete without these three things. John Hopkins learned this in a very short time.
In the Big City, important things happen, and they happen quietly.
John Hopkins was the same as a thousand other men. Mrs. Hopkins was the same as a thousand other women. They lived in an apartment that was the same as a thousand other apartments in the Big City. There was no love or war in this apartment, and they weren’t poor.
But one night, the life of John Hopkins became complete.

When I read this book for the first time, I couldn’t understand a relation between the opening and the ending. But, after I read again and again, I found there were three important things such as a little war, falling in love with a young woman and poverty. It was very interesting that the opening was connected to the ending. I really enjoyed reading this story.

Body Odor...
When I was talking about ages with my friends, one of my friends told me that after getting 20 years old, people start to produce body odors, that is "Karei-syu" in Japanese. I was quite shocked by her saying. On this September, I will have been 21 years old. So, it means that I have been producing body odor for one year. After I heard it, I hurried to buy a perfume.
Dance at Tera Bal
On May 24Th, I danced on the stage of Terra Bal driving school. There were so many specters in front of the stage. I felt very nervous... ;( As I was expected, I made a mistake in dancing because of a lack of practice. But I was very excited during dancing on the stage. I love dancing!
After dancing, I went to Shimo-tori to take pictures by "Pri-Clu" with the club members. First, I took it with 17 people at the same time. It was hot in the machine. And I took picture with the members of my team. I select the picture for a wallpaper of my cellphone.
Next we went to a Chinese restaurant "Ko-Ran-Tei". I ate a "Su-Buta" set meal. It was very good! I ate it completely.
We wanted to talk much more, we moved to a cafe. From 7 to the closing time, we talked a lot about our 'do DAC'. I wanted to be with them much much more.
I really enjoyed today. I'd like to make my dancing life full.

I Love Shopping!
Shopping is one of my stress relief methods. On Monday, I went shopping with my friend. I bought a colorful cloth and a pair of black sandals. I took a big fancy to them.
However, there is one problem before me, that is my mother. My mother always says that I have too much clothes to keep. When I come back home with new clothes, my mother gets angry. So, I came back home with hiding the clothes. Fortunately, my mother did not know that I bought new clothes. I am looking forward to wearing the new ones, but at the same time I also feel fear of my mother knowing that I bought them.

Twilight
On April 12Th, I went out to a movie with my friends. We watched "Twilight" which was about a love between a girl and a vampire. It was so exciting, and it became my favorite movie.
One day on May, I went to TSUTAYA to kill some time. When I was looking around in the store, I found the books "Twilight" at a corner of books which were made into movies. There were two-volumes of "Twilight" and "Twilight Ⅱ". At a short time I decided to buy all of them, that is, I did "OTONA-GAI".
Now I carry around the book all the time and read it during my free time. I have read through two of them in a week. I really enjoy reading them!
Why don't you read them?

In Class #5: Morning and Evening Habits
We talked about our morning and evening habits in the class.
I talked in a threesome, so I'd like to write interviews of Mina and Airi.
There are some similarities between Mina and Airi. First they go to bed at 1:00 AM. Before bed, Mina surfs the Internet by her mobile phone, drys her hair and brushes her teeth. And Airi has a good stretch and listens to music before bed.
In the morning, they usually get up at 7:00 AM. Mina washes her face, eats a breakfast, applies makeup, puts on clothes and brushes her teeth. While Airi first drinks a glass of water and has a good stretch again.
I usually go to bed at 1 or 2 AM. Before bed, I dry my hair and drink water. During drying my hair, I think about the next day's clothes. While brushing my teeth, I check my class schedule of the next day and I have my clothes ready to wear in the next morning. I am trying to use time wisely but I have always sit up late. I am a chronic sleepy person.

In Class #4: Blood Type and Zodiac Sign
Today's topic was about our blood types and zodiac signs.
My blood type is AB. A person who is my blood type is someone unique who has a sense of humor. We try to be liked by everyone but we also like being alone. I am sure that we have something of the genius in one.
I am a Libra. That symbol means a balance or scales. I think a person of this sign is one who makes equal whatever their age, sex or importance, etc.
I talked with Kazuyoshi about this topic. His blood type is A. He says that those whose blood types are A are serious, steady and old-fashioned. They are interested in something which usually others are not interested in.
He is a Pisces. The symbol is fish. According to what he said, someone who is a Pisces is sensitive and mysterious.

Book Review #5: The Borrowers
-Summary-
“Borrowers” are very small and very clever. They only borrow, not steal, things they must have from human beings.
The lender family are human beings and the Clock family are “Borrowers”. They live happily together in an old house.
One day, Mr. Potter, a lawyer comes to insist on his right to pull down the house. He says the owner of the house Aunt Mary, who is Mrs. Lender’s sister, didn’t write a letter. So, Mr. Potter wants to pull down the house in order to build a new flat.
Arrietty Clock decides to keep Mr. Potter away from the house. Thanks to thousands of borrowers, finally Mr. Potter gives up. The lender and the Clock can get back the house again!
-Impressions-
I really enjoyed reading this book. It was interesting and exciting, especially when Mr. Potter put a waste paper basket over the borrowers.
There are several stories about these very small people. When I was a high school student, I have seen one of these stories on video. I found some differences between them. I’d like to read or see other stories about the borrowers.
