Sugg's for successors

Step 1

Post on your blog as frequently as possible. I would suggest you post something on your blog at least 3 times a week including book reviews. What you write about could be what you think, what you like, or what you do or anything. I used to take a memo when I come up with something I thought I wanted to write about on my blog in daily life so that I didn't fail to write about it.

Step 2

When you write something on your blog, I recommend you will write on Microsoft Office Word first. It will check your spellings and grammar and warn if there were any mistakes. And it counts how many words you typed quickly. It is very useful.

Step3

Attaching pictures will help your blog look better. I sometime put up pictures which are related to the post themes. I looked for the pictures on the internet. At yahoo, you can find various kinds of pictures you can use for your blog. And that's where I found the most of the pictures in my blog.

A letter from Perth

Today, when I got back home from school, I saw there was a big white envelope on the table in the kitchen. And it signed my name on it. I felt excited because I seldom receive any letters from anybody. I picked up the letter and checked whom it was from. I was really surprised when I saw the name on the back of the envelope. It was from my English teacher in junior high school. I haven't seen or heard from her for almost 7 years and suddenly got this letter.
The letter said that she now lives in Perth with her Australian husband for three years. I was glad to know that she still remembers me having had many many students after I graduated the junior high school. It's been already 7 years since after I graduated junior high school and it makes me feel old. Anyway, I'm going to have to write her back with some pictures. It was such a heartwarming surprise for me. The highlight of the day.

TypingSpeedTrial "Typing"

I typed for the first time when I was in elementary school. My family bought a computer and I used to practice typing wit h it. At first, I was very slow but it was fun to type. Some days later I could type faster and more smoothly.

Now I have type very often for school. I write all the reports by typing because typing is much easier than hand writing. I don’t like hand writing because it is a lot of work. It takes time and my hand will hurt. But typing will never make my hands tired and typed words look better.

Congratulations Johnny

This year's Golden Globe awards winners have been announced. I like movies so I watch the award show every year. However, this year was a bit different from the usual. The writers and actors have been on strike so the show was actually canceled. I was a bit shocked when I heard this news on TV because I was looking forward to watching the show. But, on the other hand, there is a good news. Johnny Depp still won the Best Actor award. I like Johnny Depp so I'm happy for him. And I hope the strike will end soon.

My broken PC

Yesterday, when I tried to turn on my computer, there was something wrong. It just didn't turn on. I think it's broken. Maybe virus. I don't know what to do. I'm really upset. I hate computers. Fortunately, my father knows much about computers so I’ll ask him for help tonight.

"Everything is Illuminated"

Today I watched a movie called “Everything is Illuminated”. I watched it for the Phonetic class. I’m going to have a presentation next week. I’m going to present about a different kind of English accent.

I picked this movie because there was a character who speaks English with a distinct accent. His name is Alexander. He’s a Ukrainian man and his English sounds a little funny. I focused on his pronunciation intensely so I don’t remember the story very much but it was a funny movie.

I’m going to get prepared for the presentation now. I’m going to use Power Point. I think I will do ok because the movie was really good.

UNIQLO

Today I went to UNIQLO with my sister. My sister now lives in Fukuoka but came back for this weekend. You may all know but UNIQLO is a clothing shop. It’s cheap and good. We went there by car and shopped. I bought a black long sleeve T shirts and grey sweat shirts. I liked them very much. They were simple and comfortable. What I like about UNIQLO is its design and price. The design is very simple and fits any style and you can get them at very reasonable price.
