Essay 4 Toy Story

I like this movie because I often watched it when I was child. It is one of the most famous movies in Disney movies. I watched it for the first time when I was six years old and it was so interesting.
I sometimes want to watch this movie now.

The main character is Woody who is a cowboy doll. He lives in Andy's house with other toys. Woody is the favorite toy for Andy and he is a leader of the other toys. They cannot move while Andy is still awake. Andy will get a new toy in his birthday so Woody comes to be upset because he thinks a new toy becomes Andy's favorite toy. On Andy's birthday, a new toy comes to Andy's house. He is Buzz Lightyear who is a new hero of the planet. Andy instantly comes to love him and he is so cool. Every toy is interested in him. One day an accident happened. Buzz fell out from window in Andy's room. They think that falling of Buzz is because of Woody.

I like these characters very much because they are so cute. My favorite character is Woody because his face is so cool and he is the leader of other toys. I have a doll of Woody and I bought it in Tokyo Disney Land. I put it beside my bed. There are a lot of unique characters in this movie. Mr. potato head is the most unique character in it. His face can be changed easily so his face is usually changed. I have his doll, too. I was presented it by my girlfriend. She likes this movie, too. We sometimes rent this series of Toy Story at TSUTAYA and these are something that is not boring. All series of this movie are so fun for me so I will rent it again. I want to know other movies in Disney.

One of the most enjoyable days I ever spent was traveling to Fukuoka with my girlfriend last month. We went together to Fukuoka for the first time so we were looking forward to the trip. The purpose of the trip was celebrating her job. We had been planning this trip since this summer. We went to Fukuoka by bus and it took three hours. We entered a dining room as soon as we arrived in Fukuoka. We ate mizutaki there. It is a famous dish in Fukuoka and it is similar to hot pot cooking. After lunch we went shopping in Canal City in Hakata. I bought some All Star shoes for her and she looked so happy. We went to the hotel that we booked as soon as we finished shopping.

BR 2-08: Wuthering Heights

[...Heathcliff smiling to himself whenever he saw Isabella, and I wondered why.](p.44)

I knew this book when I attended a class of English literature. I compared with Wuthering Heights and Jane Eyre in the class. I like Jane Eyre better than Wuthering Heights. Main character of this story is Heathcliff. He was very poor boy when he was a child. He loved a woman at that time. They loved each other. The woman named Catherine. She could not marry Heathcliff because he was an orphan and she had a longing to the living of rich class. Heathcliff disappeared after she married to Edgar. But he came back and he decided to revenge to people that caused pain him.

I read this book and I became to be sad because he had never became happy. If he married Catherine, I think the ending was different. But I admired his love because he loved the only person in his life. I think that it is a great thing. I could not do such him. Because of environment, he became such a poor person. Wuthering Heights was his revenge story.

In opposite, Jane Eyre was good. Jane was happy because she could live with a man who loved the best in the last scene. She had experienced a lot of bad things since she was a child. But she had a good luck different from Heathcliff.

After reading these books, I want to know more about the difference of these books and I wanted to read other books.

BR 2-07: Jane Eyre

[, but I continued walking toward the road, with tears running down my cheeks.](p.86)

It was written by Charlotte Bronte who is a novelist in Britain. This novel's heroine is Jane who is not a beautiful. The dissatisfaction of an orphan and the consciousness of the equality of the sexs are written in it. These were unimaginable things at that time. This heroine is marrying after free love regardless of a property and statue.

Jane became an orphan and she grew while receiving the harassment by Mrs. Reed and her children. Jane became to be nine years old and she would go to the Lowood school. She met a kind doctor and Helen Burns. She became to love him but he was dead by a tuberculosis.

Jane lived in Lowood as a student and teacher for eight years and she became to work in Rochester's house as a house teacher. They were loving each other but the happiness did not continue for a long time.

Reading this book, I was very happy. I felt that Jane is miserable at first but she married Rochester who she love the best. I think that the chance which can meet and marry with the person you love the best. I envy her so I want to meet the person who love the best in the future. I want to read the book named Wuthering Heights. It was written by Emily Bronte who is the sister of Charlotte Bronte.

BR 2-06: Beowulf

[He tugged the monster's arm...and tore it from its body!.](p.27)

Beowulf is an epic poem which is the oldest thing of the English literature. It is composed three thousands rows and it is regarded as the most precious literature in linguistics. This is the story about the competition of Beowulf and a giant and a dragon in Denmark.

The Denmark king Hrothgar built a huge hall for himself on top of a craggy hill at the edge of the moors. The hall was made of the finest wood, decorated with ivory, silver and dazzling gold. The king called it Heorot. One night he held a party in this hall to celebrate a completion of it. The hall was full of singing and laughter. People ate and drank until they fell asleep. But outside, something evil was rising.

Across the moor, there is a giant named Grendel. The warrior's laughter had woken him from sleep and he hated laughter. The warriors were terrified because the doors of Heorot were smashing suddenly. They had never seen anything happen outside. After Grendel entered in the hall, he killed the warriors of Hrothgar. Grendel returned every night for months. There is no one lives in Heorot. The king was heartbroken and asked Beowulf to killing the giant.

One night Grendel went to the Heorot and Beowulf won the battle with Grendel. Grendel escaped because he lost his arm by Beowulf. After won, Grendel's mother went back to Heorot for revenge. Beowulf won the battle,too. After the battle, he became a new king of Heorot.

I read this book in the class of this university. I have seen this movie two years ago. It was so interesting and Beowulf is very strong and cool. Instantly I become to like this story because I like to watch action story. There are a lot of action story such Beowulf in the world. I think that an action story is interesting in the present day and in old day. I want to read action story in the world.

BR 2-05: Rain Man

[I'm a very good driver.](p.39)

I watched it one year ago at home. This is a human drama about a brother. Charlie works as a dealer of luxury cars but the management was not go well. His father is a rich man and Charlie received a message from him. The message is about his inheritance and the father will give all it to Charlie's brother. Charlie did not know the existence of his brother. Charlie went back to his hometown to get the inheritance. His brother Raymond is a savant syndrome so he entered a facility. Charlie took him forcibly to Los Angeles but Charlie noticed his special ability and he remembered his memories with Raymond.

Charlie watched Raymond as the inheritance at first but his mind become to change for Raymond. I did not know the savant syndrome until reading this book. People with this symptom have a superior ability only in the specific field. They can remember the numbers and scene which watched for the first time. It is said that some people can remember the the circular constant, and the others can remember　a telephone directory and a day which identified. I was so surprised it and I was interested in the symptom.

I did not like Charlie at first because he was a violent person. I think that he should be kind to Raymond because he is a brother of Charlie. In the journey, Charlie became kind to Raymond so I was happy. Reading and watching it, I think that I have to value my brother and sister. I want everyone to read this book and want everyone to value one's family.

Ghoul is the human who can eat only human. They can’t live without eating human since they were born. The main character’s name is Kaneki Ken and unfortunately he became a Ghoul from human. His life is very sad. His mother was dead when he was a child and he doesn’t remember his father. Ken is likes to reading books and he like the book which written by Takatsuki Sen.

Ken is going to work in a restaurant. The restaurant name is Anteiku and every clerks in this restaurant are Ghoul. They are living while escaping from Ghoul researchers. The coffee which sell in there is so delicious and everyone like it. The customers are Ghoul and human. Ghoul’s look is little different from human so they live together in Tokyo.

I like this comic because the characters are unique. I like the best person in this comic is Eto who is the Ghoul. She is the reader of the Ghoul group. The name is Aogiri no ki. They like to kill a person. Eto is the strongest Ghoul in this comic. Her purpose is not known. She is called triple S rate from Ghoul researchers. Triple S rate is the most strong and dangerous Ghoul and her friends are all strong. I think that you will like the person after reading this comic. Please read this comic and talk about Tokyo Ghoul with me.

I like a Ghoul researcher named Mado Akira. Her mother killed by Eto and she hates the Ghoul. Unfortunately her father was also killed by a Ghoul. Her father is Mado Kureo who is the famous Ghoul researcher. She hates all Ghouls. She is strong and cool. I like her because she is very cute and strong.

Next I recommend the comic named Ajin. The comic is not well-known in Japan but recently it become popular in the world. There are a lot of friends who don’t know this comic.

Ajin is the person who can’t die and their looks is little differ from human. There are forty-six people who is Ajin in the world. Ajin is the sample of experiment because they can’t die. The main character is Kei. He is the most interesting person and strongest one. The story is as same as the comic Tokyo Ghoul. It written about the competition of Ajin and human.

About a war

I don’t like a war. In contract, is there a man or woman who like a war? I learned a thing about a war when I was a child. Everyone in the world learned it when they were children, too. In 1945 the World War 2 ended. Nagasaki and Hiroshima were bombed by America. We didn’t born at that time so we don’t know the fearful of a war. A lot of people dead by a war. It is the fact that everyone in the world knows the war is the thing that not to continue. Now in the world, the terrorists exist. It was pick up in the news and a newspaper. I cannot think that people who my friends and my family.

I like STAR WARS which written about a war. The competition written in the movie is space war. I like this movie but I don’t like other movie written about a war. My grandfather and mother often spoke about a war when I was a child so I know about a war. My friend like the game about a war and have a lot of it. They look very interesting while they are playing the game. There are a lot of game about a war. I have ever played it with my friends. It was so interesting for me to play but I can’t concern about a real war. There are a lot of people who like to play game written about a war. My friends said that I become stress-free to play this game. I was a fearful at that time. I think that there are many people who don’t know the difference the real and game. There are many accidents by young man or woman in the world. I am very sad to listen to the accident by accident. I don’t want to be such a person.

By internet’s improvement, we become to communicate to people in the world. There are many applications to play. This improvement is very good thing but it also have a bad thing. We can communication to many people in the world by SNS and we became to know the things that occurred in the world. This is a good point of SNS. In contract, we don’t have interests to other people. We can communication in cell phone without talk each other. I think that it is the bad point by internet’s improvement. I want to know about other people. I want to know what they like, like to do. Internet has a good point and a bad point.
