My Fair Lady

Hi, everyone! This is Keiko from EDC1.

How was the first day of new semester?

I took four classes today so I was tired a little!

This time, I will write a book review.

I have read a book called My Fair Lady.

The musical of this story was first seen in 1958 and the film was made in 1964 and they are very famous and popular even today so you might know this story.


This is the story of a poor young flower seller, Eliza Doolittle, and a professor Higgins who is interested in language and accents.

The young flower seller had an interesting London accent.

The professor Higgins decides to teach Eliza to speak better English.

He wants to change her from street girl to lady.

Through teaching Eliza, professor Higgins learn something important from her.

This story sometimes make you laugh and you can learn right English accent.

Hi! Everyone! This is Mao from EDC1

This time, I would like to introduce you about “The Return of Sherlock Holmes”
This book has four stories ‘A Note from Dr Watson’, ‘The Six Napoleons’, ‘The Norwood Builder’ and ‘The Golden Glasses’.

I like detective story so I like Conan Doyle but I like Agatha Christie than him. Most interesting novels are ‘Murder on the Orient Express’and ‘The A.B.C.Murders’ Do you know those novels? Those are very famous novels. ‘The A.B.C.Murders’ is used Japanese famous comic ‘Detective Conan’.

Let’s get back to the subject.
“The Return of Sherlock Holmes” is written Dr Watson’s eyes. Sherlock Homes has a very clever mind and he sometimes says black joke. His smooth talk hound criminal. This scene is my favorite scene.
My favorite story is ‘The Norwood Builder’. In the story, Sherlock Homes notices that no matter what little things. Thanks to his eyes, this case was arrived an unexpected result. I want to tell you about story and result but if I write result, you think this book is dull.

Please read this book!! Thank you.

The title is "BLACK BEAUTY", and this was written by Anna Sewell.

Black Beauty is the name of this main character. This setting is 19th century when people use horses as a tool of carrying cabin baggage and people.
Environment of horses depended on their owner. Some was very kind, and the other was very bad-temper.

The Last Lecture

Hi, everyone. I'm Yumika from EDC3. Classes start tomorrow.
Today I want to introduce the book named 'The Last Lecture' written by Rand Pausch.
The writer was a professor of Carnegie Mellon University. He had been diagnose with pancreatic cancer. That cancer is a terminal cancer, so his last lecture at his university bacame a last lecture of his life.
I watched his lecture on Youtube before. It was a little bit difficult to catch some English words sometimes, but the lecture was really great. I'm so impressed. This book is about that lecture. I could learn a lot of important things for my life from this book. I think this book will change your life and the way of our thiking about our life.
He gave his last lecture at his university, but it was not about a death or cancer, he gave lecture about such as dream and love.
In this book, I like the story of ' Be the first penguin'. In this story, he tells us the importance of challenge new things and the value of failures. I thought I followed his advice and change a small things in my daily life, my life might change better.
There is more great stories in this book, so if you are looking for a great book, I'll recommed this 'The last lecture'. I already read this book twice, but still can learn new important things every time I read this book. This book is a bible for my life.

Manchester United Kevin Brophy

Hi! This is Sayakay from EDC1.
I have been spending on part time job most of my summer vacation.


By the way, I read the book - Manchester United Kevin Brophy.

I chose this book because I like soccer. Manchester United are the biggest, richest, and most successful football club in the world. This is the team which David Becham belonged, who is famous soccer player.

Soccer is the sport which is called that everyone (player, audience and so on) cannot image which team wins by last seconds of the game. Manchester United have also its experience.

They had lost by the ninetieth minute (soccer game is over at ninetieth minute) 26 May, 1999.
The score was 0-1. However, they scored two goals in the last seconds of the game and won the game with 2-1! They also won Europe Championship! They had already won FA Cup and the league, so they become three times champion and the strongest team in the world.

It is said that there are 45,000 Manchester United fans and hundreds of fans from all over the world visit Old Trafford, Manchester , every year.

Driving School

Hello, everyone! I can't believe summer vacation has finished!
This sumer, I went to driving school to get a license.
Learning the rule of the road and how to drive was much difficult than I had expected, so it's very hard for me. However, teacher and friends cheered me up, so I finally passed the final examination the other day! I am very glad about it. I want to be a safe driver.
