If I had a billion yen, I would renovate my house.
My house is detached, but it's really narrow. Actually I don't have my room. There are four people in my family, but our house has only five rooms which are a dining room with a kitchen, Japanese-style room, lavatory,bathroom and nursery room. My parents don't have their room, so they sleep in the nursery room at night.
I wish there would be my room. Not only my room but also ｆather's room, mother's room and my sister's room. If I had my room, I could have my book shelf in my room, I have so many books, but I'm running short of the place to keep them now. In order to do so, I really want to renovate my house with a billion yen.

What is the most precious thing in my life?
I have many things that I think is precious in my life, but the most precious thing is this album.
I was given this album when I graduated from brass band club in high school.
In this album, there were over 100 short letters from my kouhais and some photos of our memory. Our club was so big that it is almost impossible to talk or know all of the members, but many students wrote me that "I like the sound of your flute and piccolo." I was really happy.
In the club, I was the leader of the flute section, and it was my first time to be a "leader" of something. I'm not good at speaking, teaching and leading, so maybe I was not a very good leader. But when I was given this album, my kouhai said "I wanna be the leader like you." Probably it was a kind of adulation, but I was very glad to hear that.
I spent almost all my junior-high and high school life for the brass band club. I was always thinking about brass band club and flute section, and it was definitely the most precious memory for me. Especially, this album is the symbol of the memory.

My Favorite Book: Harry Potter Series
I'm introducing my favorite book.
My Favorite book is Harry Potter.
Actually, this book is the reason why I wanted to study English at first. Almost 10 years ago, at first I read the book, I wished I could read this book in original, so I decided to study English hard. 3 years ago, I tried to read "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" in English, Some parts were difficult for me, but I could read other parts. I was really happy.
Harry Potter series is, you know, the story of the wizard academy. Harry is the boy called "the boy who lived" and his companions fight against "He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named", who is the most terrible wizard in the world.
This story is very very very exciting, because it's so realistic. When I was 10 years old, I really waited for the owl which would give me the invitation to Hogwarts. Even though it didn't come, I practiced the spells which Harry used in the story with my friends. I still remember most of the spells and effects.
Another reason why I love the story is the attractive characters. Harry and his friends are very courageous, but they are just like me and my friends. In the story, the worry about the exam, fall in love, and sometimes have a big dispute. They are normal teenagers just like me, and this makes the story more familiar.
Harry was 17 years old when he defeated "You-Know-Who". Now I'm older than him, but I still have so many things which I can learn from him and his story. The owl didn't come to me, but I still believe Hogwarts is somewhere in the world and I want to be a person like Harry and his friends. Harry Potter is the bible for me.

My Reaction to "While Listening Linear Blue"
Today I'm writing about my favorite tune.
One of my favorite musicians, UNISON SQUARE GARDEN, released the new CD this week.
「リニアブルーを聴きながら(While Listening "Linear Blue")」/UNISON SQUARE GARDEN
I like this band very much, and I'm going to go their live next week.
I'm really looking forward to it. I respect Tabuchi Tomoya, who is the bassist and the song writer of this band.
"While Listening Linear Blue" is the theme song for the movie "Tiger and Bunny" (This anime is really exciting!), so maybe some of you have heard this song in TV or something.
In this tune, they sing this lyric:
It doesn't need to be right now
If you can touch at the very very last
It's too precious to give up due to small struggles
"Because I really want to..." that's enough for the answer
(Original lyric is in Japanese, so I translated into English)
Especially I was impressed by the last line.
When I want to begin something, I always think "Is it difficult?" or "Is it possible?".
However, actually it doesn't matter at all. If I really want to do something, I can start and achieve it.
This lyric encouraged me very much because I have the task which is so difficult but I really want to achieve. I never want to forget my will to achieve my task.
Unfortunately, the lyric which I translate is not in the YouTube movie which I put above. So if you are interested, please click this link! lol

Who am I?
When I think about this question, "Who am I?", at first I cannot but thinking about music.
I really love music (both playing the instruments and listening to...as is drawn above in slides), and I think it is the biggest identity of me. But it doesn't seem to answer this question.
I was born and grown up in Kitaku, Tokyo. My family is great treasure for me, and there are also great friends around me (some of them are crazy, though!). Moreover, there is always music around me. I think these all factors made me here.
So, my answer for this question is this; I am a girl made by all factors which I have seen, heard or met.

about Writing
I like writing both in English and Japanese.
I'm not good at speaking because there is little time to think, but when I'm writing, I can think deeply about what I want to tell. I often cannot say what I want to tell, while I can write (especially in English).
I really like to write in Japanese, so I keep a blog for five years. In my blog, I write diary almost every day. It helps me to remember what I thought or did in daily life. I sometimes read my blog and reflect myself. It is very interesting work for me.

Why I decided to take this class
One of the biggest reasons is simply I want to take Mark's class again.
Last year, I took Mark's ARW class, and that class was so interesting for me. Thanks to the class, I became to like writing a little. So I wanted to learn from Mark again.
Another reason is I am interested in the theme, "YOU".
For me, academic writing which needs to be objective is difficult. On the other hand, to write about "myself" sounds more familiar. I think "who am I?" is too difficult question to answer soon, but I want to think about it. These are why I decided to take this class.
