My favorite singer is Kaela Kimura, ARASHI, and Fukuyama Masaharu in Japan. Recently, I became listening UK music. My favorite girls group is The Saturdays. They are so good! My hobby is snowboarding because my father taught me. On others hand, I do water-skiing in summer. Everybody said me you don’t look like active but I am active. I keep a cute dog that is a Miniature Schnauzer. It’s so cute! His name is Kaito, who likes to play with a ball in the park near my house. I am interested in several things. First, my favorite singer is Kaela Kimura with a clear voice. Her songs are charming. I repeat to listen to her songs every day. Secondly, I like reading books written by Ai Yazawa. Her books are very fun. I like ”Gokinjyomonogatari” the best of all. The character is a powerful girl that is designer in the making. The story is the designer school life. Finally I am interested in trip. In the past, I have been to Hokkaido, Tokyo, Osaka and Okinawa. It’s only in Japan! I have never been to a foreign country. I want to go overseas.

I went to the Arashi’s concert with my mother, my brother, and my mother’s friend. I had great time. I was fun! Do you know arashi?
Arashi is a Japanese idol group. The members consist of Aiba Masaki, Sakurai Syo, Jun Matsumoto, Ohno Satoshi, and Kazunari Ninomiya. They are so cool. They announced the formation of the group on September 15, 1999 in Honolulu, Hawaii. While their debut single top the oricon weekly chart selling a little over half a million copies, the groupfaced slowly declining sales. Arashi gained a number of achievements and records as they became the first artist to place the top two rankings on the Oricon singles yearly chart for two consecutive years with their singles "Truth/Kaze no Mukō e" and "One Love" in 2008 and "Believe/Kumorinochi, Kaisei" and "Ashita no Kioku/Crazy Moon (Kimi wa Muteki)" in 2009, topped the 2009 Oricon singles, album and music DVD yearly charts, and became the third artist in Oricon history to monopolize the top three best-selling singles of the year. In 2010, all six of Arashi's singles ranked within the top ten of the Oricon singles yearly chart.

Level 3.5
I have watched the movie in the class last year. I was interested in culture, the upper class, and climate that time. The character is Eliza Doolittle who is a poor flower-seller in Victorian London. She has a very strong London accent. Professor Higgins chooses her for an experiment. He decides to teach her to speak like an upper class lady but things don't happen exactly as he plans ...This wonderful story was first a play called Pygmalion by the famous writer George Bernard Shaw. It was made into a musical, perhaps the best-known of all, and then a film starring Audrey Hepburn.

If a person feels sick or has something wrong, they can ask the general practitioner and receive medical services.
B) International center
There is no ESL in this university, but The International Study Centre has many services for international students. It also helps international student not only teach them English, but also help these student to be able to gain grades.

ABBA
I am going tell you about my favorite movie. I like "Mamma Mia!". The movie is a comedy film in 2008 and base on the song of successful pop group ABBA. This title originates from ABBA’s top chart in 1975. Playing the role of single mother is Donna Sheridan. Pierce Brosnan, Colin Firth, and Stellan Skarsgard play the three possible fathers to Donna’s daughter, Sophie. I like characters that are Donna and Sophie, because they have charming voice. Meryl Streep plays Donna in movie. She is Sophie’s mother and owner of the hotel Villa Donna, and wife of Sam at the end. She is also Rosie and Tanya’s friend. Amanda Seyfried plays Sophie Sheridan, sophie’s possible father. I like hers smile. Mamma Mia! received mixed reviews from critics. Rotten Tomatoes reported that 53% of critics gave the film positive reviews based upon a sample of 168 reviews, with an average rating of 5.5/10.
