Daily life

I usually wake up 8 o’clock. I have 15 classes in a week. Fortunately, I have only one first period class this semester. I’m happy because I’m not good at waking up early in the morning. I have a part-time job. I’m working at a restaurant three or four times in a week. I have been working there for about a year. Mainly, I wait on customers and serve dishes or drinks. My restaurant is famous for 'houtou' . It likes 'udon' and it is local specialties in Yamanashi. it is very delicious and you can eat various vegetables. I get used to working there,but it is too hard.

Makiko's daily life

Today, I want to introduce my daily life. I go to the university every day. I am a English history major. But I am not good at speaking and reading English. I must study English more. I like cooking very much. My favorite menu is pancake. I like cake and fruits very much!! The left picture is my pancake. I join a table tennis club in university. It is fun.

My home town Nagano

It introduces my hometown today. I am from Nagano. Nagano is at the center of Japan. It is very a lot and is cold in the snow in winter. It is opposite, very hot in summer. The apple can be taken in Nagano. The hot spring is famous. John Lennon of Beatles seems also to have been coming to Nagano. Everybody also must come to Nagano by all means.

My days

Hello, everyone. Today, I'll tell you about my daily life. I don't have lessons so much this year because I'm a junior. So, I live a carefree life now.

In the morning, I usually got up at nine. After making and having breakfast, I go to part-time job from at eleven to four. I'm working part-time job as a clerk in a pasta restaurant. Though it is hard work to me, I'm looking forward to eating pasta. I have a ten-minutes break between shifts, and I can have a pasta for free!

After working, in the evening, I cook dinner. I cook my meals myself as often as I can because it takes too much money to eat meals at restaurant frequently.

Then, I sometimes practice dancing at night. You know, I'm a member of the dance club in my university. Because I'm not good at dancing, I have to practice harder and harder... After finishing my practice, I come home at about ten in the afternoon.

That' s my happy daily life. It's a day when I have no lessons, I study hard when I have lessons. Do you want to live a life like that one? Please tell me your holiday life^^

Nice meet to you

Hi!! My name is Makiko. I am twenty-one years old woman. I am from Nagano. Eleven years ago,the Winter Olympics was held in Nagano.

My hobby is a trip.Last summer,I traveled one month to Britain with friends. I am not good at speaking English,but the travel was very fun. I saw various castle and museum there. I want to go Kyoto in this Autumn.I want to visit temples and shrines in Kyoto. (The left picture is a landscape of Nagano. The house name is Kayabuki.It is very old Jamanese construction.)

Do you know Ehime?

Today, I tell you about my hometown. I live in Yamanashi prefecture now, but my hometown is Ehime prefecture. Have you heard this prefecture? You may have never heard that because Ehime is not very famous. Though it is not so famous, I think it is very nice place.

Ehime is famous for "mikan" and comfortable climate in Japan. Mikan is a kind of fruits like orange. In japan, people eat mikan at a "kotatsu" in winter. Also, I think it is very easy to live in Ehime because of a mild climate. It is not too hot in summer and it is not too cold in winter.

I want you to visit my hometown if you have a chance. I love my hometown the best in Japan!

Yamanashi is my hometown :)

I'm from Kofu city, Yamanashi prefecture. My hometown is very rural area. There aren't fashionable shops enough. That's a pity! However, there are many natural places. Peaches and grapes are special products of this district. I think one of the most delicious fruits is made in Yamanashi.
Furthermore, Yamanashi is a hot spring village. I don't like hot springs very much, but many tourists visit there every year.
Oh, now I remember, the most famous place of Yamanashi is Mt.Fuji!! Mt.Fuji is the highest mountain in Japan.
I took the picture at Yamanashi university today. There are many trees in this university.

My hometown

My hometown is Uonuma city in Niigata Prefecture. Now, I live in Yamanashi Prefecture. It takes about seven and a half hours to get to Yamanashi from Niigata by train. I return to my home town about only three times in a year because it is too much trouble to return to there.

Uonuma is well-known for rice and sake. Koshihikari of Uonuma product is the brand-name rice which is the most famous in Japan. Many people of my town have one's rice field. Of course my parents' house makes rice, too.

And there are some beautiful mountains and rivers in my town. We can take many kinds of edible wild plants and fishes in there. Those are very delicious. And there are a lot of park and open spaces where nature is rich in my town. In my childhood, I played many sports or exercises with my friends in there. For,example, baseball, soccer, hide-and-seek and tag. it was too fun. My town is safe and stillness so there is good place to live. Please come to my town by all means if you like rice and sake and nature!!

My Hometown

My hometown is Kazikazawa, Yamanashi prefecture. Kazikazawa is small town, and about 4000 people is living there. There is famous for Cherry tree. In spring, there are 2000 trees in Mt.Oboshi. And there is country food called 'MIMI', Its name come from resembles agricultural tool called 'MI'. MIMI is made from flour, and knead it to shape of 'MI' and then put into 'Miso soup'. But there will merge with next town soon. So I feel a little sad.
