My favorite cake is a strawberry layer cake, because it taste is good, and I have the memories about it. When I was young, I made the cake with my young sister and my mother in Christmas and the birthday. I didn't know how to make the cake, so I was taught by my mother. I and my sister whisked up the fresh cream. And we spread it to the sponge cake. We ate the remaining whipped cream.

A Happy New Year!!

Sturday, January 2, 2016
I paid the New Year's first visit to Fujisakugu, Kato, and Kengun Shine with my family. It is "Sansyamairi".

First, we went to the Fujisakigu. I went there every year. After having prayed, I pulled out an omikuji it had "Daikichi"(Great good luck) written on it. I was very glad! I seem to make a good start.
Then, we drank the amazake. It is annual every year to drink one. The amazake is faintly sweet, and the taste is good.

Second, the Kato Shine. I bought a good-luck charm for victory. I become a senior, and job hunting begins. I must gain the job. I put a hope to find a job. Then, I pulled out an omikuji again. It had "Daikichi" written on it too! Moreover, the content to be written on it was identical to the contents of the omikuji of a little while ago! So I was very surprised! Such thing is for the first time for me.

Third, The Kengun Shine. There are a lot of people. We had to line up in the long row. In Kengun Shine, there are many Shinto shines. I went and worshiped at all Shinto shines. After that, I pulled the third omikuji. It was "lesser good luck". 3 times weren't Daikichi, but I was glad, because Daikichi appeared twice!

 I want to try study or an interview exercise hard for finding employment this year, and I hope that it is a good year.

Review 6 Remember the Titans

When I was a high school student, I watched the movie during the class for the first time. I

 remember clearly that students watched the movie without talking entirely. This movie made us absorbed. I was very impressed, and I like this movie since that time.

This movie was based on a true story. At the Virginia in the US in 1971, Racial discrimination still remained firmly then. Herman Boone who is a black people comes to a T. C. Williams high school as a head coach of a football team. He was employed as an assistant of Bill Yoast of a white people head coach at first. However, Boone became a head coach by an affirmative action way. They didn't like that.

Players were quarreling every day, too. One day, Boone lodged together in Gettysburg. This place is a decisive battle place by the Civil War. Then, they understand each other through football.

I watched the situation in which they united, and was quite moved. They were bound by rigid ties, and they became the friends. Not only players but also Boone and Yoast became friendly. When I watched at this scene, I was relieved.

I think there is a wise remark for this movie. The wise remark is "There is a racial problem with us. However, therefore it is strong. Nothing can tear up us."

"Titans" of the title is the name of the team of the football, and "Titan" is a giant group of the Greek myth. Boone said, "Titan is stronger than God". They're strong like the name.
Also, You should look at the scene of the game of the football. The football may be unfamiliar for  Japanese, but the game is powerful, so you will be excited to see that.
Especially, in the last game.

 I think there were no racial walls, but people judged a person by the appearance and discriminated. It was very sad. You may be him or her and a friend. This isn't to limit to black people and white people. If your friend isn't Japanese, do you discriminate? I don't  want you to be so.

　　

Discrimination against blacks also decreases at present. Rather they play an active part very much. For example, Obama who is a black became the President. Even if races are different, we are same.
