BR1-8: Harry's Great Big Burp

It started in his tummy. His tummy started to rumble, and mumble, and grumble. Then... POP!

I read Harry's great big burp. The book was published by Macmillan Education Australia Pty Ltd. It is a story about Harry's burp.
 He lived with his mother, and she gave him all kinds of food that he didn't like. She gave him a lot of fruit and a lot of vegetables. "Now eat them up and don't make a big fuss." So, he ate up all his fruit and vegetables. One day, his mother got some prunes, but Harry didn't like it. "Prunes are very good for you", his mother said. Reluctantly, he ate it.
Then he got on the bus, he felt physically ill. It started in his tummy. His tummy started to rumble, and mumble, and grumble. Then... POP!
A great big burp came from Harry's mouth. The bus driver though the motor is too hot, so that big pop made. But the motor was not too hot.
Harry was in the library, and he felt physically ill, and another great big burp came from his mouth. The great big burp like a earthquake. Librarian called the police, but earthquake was not happen. It was due to Harry's big burp. He didn't stay school, and said to his mother, "I will not eat prunes ever again."
It was diverting story.

BR1-7: THE JEWWELLERY SHOP ROBBERY

Eddie was walking home from school. As he came around a corner, he saw that the jewellery shop had been robbed. All the jewellery had taken…

I read “The jewellery shop robbery”. It is about jewelry shop robberies and a boy story. One day, a boy Eddie came across locality of jewelry shop has been robbed. The robbers took all the jewelry. That night, Eddie and his mother watched about this news on TV. The reporter said that people on the street had seen the men get away in a red car, and Eddie said that he saw a red car parked outside the empty house next door, when he came home from school.  And he has not seen this one here before. After dinner, Eddie went outside. He looked over at the house next door. It was dark and empty and the red car was still parked there. Eddie looked into empty house, the noise coming from there, then, Eddie saw looked two men sitting at a table. They were taking things out of a big black box. Eddie could see that it was jewelry. Eddie moved away from there, he run down the path and into his house. Eddie said “Mom! Call the police! The jewellery robbers are next door.” His mother called police, and police came to the house to take the robbers away. Police said to Eddie “you are going to make a good detective one day”, and Eddie said “I think I am, too.”

I think the book was written in British English.

BR1-6: The moon seems to Change

Can you see the moon?

I read "The moon seems to change". It is a story about the moon. I learned about it when I was a junior high school student. I didn't like to study it then, but I read it and I think it is interesting to learn it.

It writes about a full moon, a quarter moon, a crescent moon. I know that it call a full moon and a quarter moon, but for the first time I know that MIKADUKI in Japanese calls a crescent moon in English.

The moon seems to change, but it really doesn’t. It seems to change because the moon goes around Earth. Half of the moon is always lighted by the sun. Half is lighted and half is always in darkness.

It takes the moon about four weeks to go around Earth.

This book has many pictures. It is easy to understand.

Tonight, I see the moon carefully.

Good day~^^

March 17, 2012

Today, we woke up around nine but we got up at 10. After that, we put on makeup over watching DVD of 2PM and FTISLAND. Arisa likes FTISLAND, they are Korean rock band. My Korean friends said FTISLAND is loved by young people in Korea.

Arisa and Seiko went back their homes.

From afternoon, I met coworkers of my part-time job of a cram school. We went to Karaoke. I think when we met, we always go to Karaoke. lol

We went out of Karaoke, we went to eat Yakiniku. It was very delicious, but I am a light eater, so I couldn’t eat more. They always said to me “you’re a light eater.” I am very concerned about that, so I don’t like to say it. How can I eat enough~?><

But it was a good day^^ It was fun. (144/4229 words)
