new year!!!

Happy new year!
How was your winter vacation?Did you go anywhere?What did you do?How many Omoti did you eat??

On the first day in this year,I went to Kyoto with my family(and by my driving),and went Hatumoude.
I've known that many people go to famous temples such as Heian-jingu,so we went to a minor temple called Okazaki-temple.
There is enshrined in rabbit's God,therefor it is a hidden site.
My parents and sister drew a written fortune,but I didn't do that because I've never got Daikichi.I don't like the fortune!

In this year,I think that I have to do many things than before.It looks like very busy,but I'll do my best and improve my personality more and more!
I wish you a very nice year!! Kotoyoro!!!

discovery in my town

I live in Rokko Island for 15yaers and go to school everyday.There is an artificial island,so we have to use train or a car to go outside through a big bridge"Rokko Bridge".Of couse we can cross it on foot.
Rokko Island is a very livable city, but I found why is it livable recently despite a long lived.
First discovery is "barrier-free". There are no obstacles Island,but needless to say, there are also many steps.So it meens that steps have certainly slop beside them everywhere. That is for disable people and old people because there are many homes of the elderly and hospitals in Rokko Island. Therefor, it is a kind city for them.

Second discovery is "Pets". In this island, we are allowed to keep pets everywhere which is not only single houses but also apartments.People who live there have many pets such as dogs, cats, and any othere animals, therefoe we can always see cute pets there,and they make us relax.
In conclusion, my home town is a refined town for many types of people. If you have a free time, please visit here!
But please attention! My town is "Rokko Island". It is NOT "Port Island"! Do not misunderstand!!

my future plan

If I can graduate this university 3yaers later,I have many things which I want to do. Ofcourse,I'd like to work at a big company as a clever bussiness man, but I have many dreams which I want to get them true certainly.
First,if I can speak English well during university life,I'd like to go to many foreign countries.There are not only famous countries such as U.S.A,Europe,Australia,and so on but also which are not known by everyone for example North Europe,Morocco,Istanbul,and more...
I want to go many places (called "Power Spot") and make many friends through English. If I can make friends, I also hold the soccer cup and enjoy playing with them.
I think that having many foreign friends is very good for my life.If I can speak only Japanese,I can't talk to only 160000000 peole.However if I can speak English, I can talk to more than several billions of people with speaking English. They make my value wdely.
In the future, to speak foreign languages is very important factor. I'd like to be a person who can communicate with any kind of peope in the world.

a good friend

I'm tell you about my good friend.

When I was 4 yaers old and moved here I live now from Tokyo, I met him for the first time. He is quarter of American and German and a very handsome boy. My and his house were very close(about 30meter),so we always play together every day.We also like playing soccer and belonged to same team for about 10 yaers.When training time was over, we often went to Korean BBQ which his father maneged and ate a lot of beef without spending money.I loved that very much! He went to American school, and always invited me to the school ivents such as school fes, Thanks Giving,Halloween,and more.Then, I couldn't speak English at all,so he tought me how to make friends in English and introduced me to his friends. This is the opportunity when I intended to learn English. He may contribute to the fact that I am this school.
He changed my life better, and we are still good friends!
Now he works as a actor,so I'll tell you about him more if he is getting famous.

high technology makes...

I'm going to write about an answer of John's question.
Today, there are many high technologies in our life, and even children can communicate with other people by internet whithout meeting them directly. It is a very useful for us actually, of couse I use internet devices every day. However, I don't think that It's a really good think. According to scientist, many children who can't write Kanji directly are increasing because of using keyboard(prediction conversion) too much. And another scientist say that young people are getting shy and not good at talking face to face because they have many times to talk with other people by cell-phone or e-mail.
I think that thses are big morden problem and we shouldn't leave them never. It is not that it is good that all becomes convenient by high technology.

globalization

About two yaers ago, I started playing the guitar(and bass guitar). At that time, I don't know about anything about it (for example, which guitar maker is famous?, which types of guitar should I buy? etc...), so I went to the guitar shop and asked to shopkeeper about guitar. He said "Fender and Gibson are very famous guitar makers in U.S.A and these are known by all over the world" .
Do you know Jeff Beck?? He is one of the geratest guitar player in the world and using Fender's guitar called "Stratocaster". And also, Eric Clapton who is a very famous guitarist, too is playing with Gibson's guitar called "Les Paul". In Japan, these guitars are used by many guitar players today. For example, Haruichi Shindo who is playing as "PornoGraffitti" is using Fender, and Tak Matsumoto(B'z) is also using Gibson. Especially Tak's guitars are all own models, and it is only five people in the world. This is a reason how much he is a great guitar player.
And of course, not only professional players, but also we can buy Fender or Gibson's guitars and play them. However these guitars are very expensive, so it is difficult for young people who don't work yet to buy them. Still, we want to have them because these form and tone are very wonderful. Of course, I want them !
Fender and Gibson, thses two guitar makers are known and used by all over the world today. This is globalization I think.

summer 2

Second, I went to Fukuoka and Saga to go sightseeing and visit my grandfather's sister with my family in first week of July. Before going there, I could get the driver's license, so I rent a rental car and drove on the roads in Kyushu myself. It was the first time to drive after getting license, therefore I was very nervous. However I was able to drive about 400~500km between Fukuoka and Saga without any accidents, so my driving skill have improved well.

By the way, Saga is our family(Ezoe family)'s old-hometown. About over 100 years ago, Ezoe was a samurai and living in Saga. Therefore my name comes from there, maybe. "Ezoe" is a very rare name, so I've never seen a person whose name is the same. However, I went to Ezoe family's cemetery and could see many Ezoe people! It was also a rare, too.

This time was a very tight schedule, so I didn't have enough time to enjoy at main atreet(Tenjin) in Fukuoka. Therefore I want to visit there with my friends by driving again.

summer 1

I'll tell you about some of experience in my summer vacation.

First, I went to many festivals (example, Asiya Summer Carnival, Tenjin Festival and so on...) and saw fireworks with classmates of IS. I had never seen such a large-scale firework festival because I was playing soccer everyday in clubteam during summer vacation until last year.So I really enjoyed and could feel "summer" through it.

Fireworks is one of the most beautiful cultures in Japan. Many types of them such as color, height, size and shape are shooting to night sky at the end of the festival, but all of them are handmade by professionals. I think that it is a very hardwork and great thing.

I really want to keep making fireworks by handmade even if IT society that almost things are made by machine is developping in the world. Japanese old cultures are great!
