Essay#2 My treasures






I have three treasures. Now, I will introduce about them.

First treasure is a baseball cap of my old high school baseball club. When I was a high school student, I had belonged to the baseball club. At first, that cap was not mine. It was ace pitcher’s cap. We exchanged our caps for the proof of our friendships. We practiced hard everyday. Our dream was to play at Koshien stadium. Though, our dream had not come true, it was one of precious memories in my high school life. The cap may looks old and junk, but it is a treasure for me.

Second treasure is “Monchhichi”. It is a monkey doll. One day, I went to a convenience store near my house. When I went to into store, I found it on the counter. I fell in love with it. I decided to buy it immediately. It has been my lover since then.

Third treasure is my friends. I have many friends. Above all, Boo-chan, Syo and Yuzo are my best friends. We have been good friends since we were primary school student.
Boo-chan’s name is Yoichi Takaki. Why do we call him “Boo- chan”? There is a comedian whose name is Takaki Boo. Boo-chan looks like him and his family name is Takaki. His character is very funny. I always laugh with him. He is loved by everyone. He is good man but I am worry about his weight.
Syo is baby faced. He has not change since his younger days. He is unique. His saying and doing are beyond our expectations.
Yuzo is very handsome. He is very popular with women. So, we always feel jealousy. The bottom line is that he is also funny like Boo-chan or Syo. So, we are good friends. I hope our friendship will go on forever.

These are my treasures.

Book review #2 (Giraffe Goes Skating)


As the title says, this is the story giraffe goes skating. When giraffe was skating, some animals gave her advices for her safety. For example, “Put your helmet on”, “Get your kneepads” and so on. But she did not pay attention to what they said. As a result, she struck the tree and injured.

Feelings
I think that the book says “You should listen to others”. Young people will not listen to adult people. I am one of the young like this. But, I understand that the advices by elder people are usually right. There is a proverb “Years bring wisdom”.
