My favorite club
My favorite club is basketball club. I am not in the basketball club at KGU, but I was in the basketball club at elementary school, junior high school and high school. I started to play basketball when I was ten years old. I entered the club with my best friends. I enjoyed playing basketball. I joined games many times. My uniform number was 7. However, when I was 12 years old, I was injured my knee in October, so I could not play the game that was held in this month. When I became a junior high school student, practicing became harder. I got a uniform number 9, and I play the games. I often felt basketball was difficult, but I liked basketball. When I was a high school student, I became a vice captain of the club, and I got a uniform number 5. I practiced very hard. Our team was not strong, but I could meet good friends thorough the club activities.

Go to downtown!
On October 31st, I took physics class in the morning. After finishing the class, I went to downtown with my friend. First, we went to J café to eat lunch. I ate spaghetti, salad and dessert. I drank chocolate cookie latte. They are all delicious! After we finished eating, I enjoyed talking for a while. I like atmosphere of J café. Next, we went to PARCO, New-s, SPINNS, and so on. We browsed many clothing stores. There are many pretty clothes, so we wanted to buy some clothes. However, we are irresolute, so we couldn’t choose which clothes we buy. We gave up buying clothes, and we went to TSUTAYA. I rented DVDs. I had a coupon, so I could rent two DVDs free. I also received a calendar I reserved at online store. I bought my favorite actor’s calendar. He is very cool, so I was happy to get it. After that, I said good-bye to my friend. I couldn’t buy clothes, but it was pleasant time for me. I want to go shopping with her again!

“Each Weather Fairy will help you find her own feather,” said the queen. (p.24)
I picked this book because pictures are so pretty. The library at KGU has a lot of books of fairies series: the weather fairies, the jewel fairies, the rainbow fairies, and so on. I chose the book because I like snow very much. This story is about two girls who find feathers with fairies. At the beginning of the story, it started to snow suddenly in spite of summer. This was very strange. Kirsty and Rachel have a secret. They are friends with fairies. Kirsty suddenly became fairy-size, and she flew over rivers, mountains, trees and houses. She arrived at Fairyland. When she arrived there, Rachel had already arrived there and waited Kirsty. King and queen told Kirsty and Rachel that Jack Frost and his servants, goblins, robbed Doodle’s feathers. Doodle was in charge of Fairyland’s weather and decided on the best weather for every part of Fairyland every morning, so Doodle’s feathers were very important. Two girls decided to help to find and collect feathers with fairies. If you want to know whether they could find feathers or not, please read this book! It was interesting for me. Kirsty, Rachel and the snow fairy made a special plan to return feathers goblins. When you read the book, you could also understand this plan.
The weather fairies are made up seven fairies: the snow fairy, the cloud fairy, the mist fairy, the lightning fairy, the rain fairy, the sunshine fairy and breeze fairy. Each fairy tries to find each feather. I want to read all books of the weather fairies. They will be fun. I recommend you to read the series of fairies.
