BR:2-1 "Two Frogs"

"Two Frogs live in Japan. One frog lives in Osaka. The other frog lives in Kyoto."(p.6)

Two frogs live in Japan. One frog lives in Osaka. The other frog lives in Kyoto. One day. they want to visit another city. Osaka frog goes to Kyoto, and Kyoto frog goes to Osaka. One hopes north. The other hops south. The frogs hop up the mountain. The two frogs meet at the top. They are short, so they can't see Osaka and Kyoto. So, they put front feet on shoulders each other. But the frogs make mistake. Their eyes are on the back of their heads. So they think that another city looks just like own city. They never learn their mistake. They still think Osaka and Kyoto look the same.

My school trip

When I was in junior highschool, I went on a school trip to Okinawa. There were about 80 students on the trip. We traveled to Okinawa by airplane, and we stayed in a hotel near the beach. We went to the aquarium, and watched a very big shark. And we learned about war in Okinawa. We enjoyed the trip and I want to go to Okinawa again.

My summer vacation and other matters...

My summer vacation was good and bad. I almost enjoyed my summer vacation. I went to Aso with my friends. We had a barbecue and went to the hot spring. It was so fun. I love my friends. However I couldn't go to a summer festival, watch fire works, and go to beach. I want to go summer festival next year! And I went to Hitoyoshi to do rafting. It was so excited. Also I worked part time job 5 or 6 days in a week. I made a lot of money, but I was a little tired. I want to travel and go to foreign countries next long vacation.
