do you believe in ghosts? Yurika

              Recently, I really like watching horror movies and playing horror games. It makes me so fun!! I don’t like sense ghost in my daily life, but I like horror movies and games. So, today I’m going to talk about ghosts…if you don’t like stories which talk about ghosts, you can skip my blog…lol Do you believe in ghosts? If you believe in ghosts, why you believe in ghosts? In America, 42% of people believe in ghosts. I’m wondering why people believe in ghost…, so I did some research about ghosts.  

 First, when often do we see the ghosts? I think we can’t see ghosts at  daytime, but sometimes someone saw ghosts at night. In fact, most people who saw ghosts saw at night. Some scientists say that it came from their excessive fear. Sometimes we see ghosts, but this ghost was made our brain. Have you done like this situation? When you take shower after saw some horror movies, you see some white ghost, but you might see carefully and realize that it was a curtain. Maybe it was true because I haven’t seen any ghosts. I want to evidence that will prove there are ghosts in the world.

Second, while as we growing up, our parents told us about ghost stories, so we simply trust that our parents saying. And sometimes my parents told me about ghost stories with some pictures. They have pictures that there are ghosts in this pictures. It was not clear, but it is enough to believe in ghosts for me! Now I don’t think that. I think it was fake.

I can’t believe in ghosts but I really interest about ghosts! if you have some interesting ghosts stories, tell me!! And I hope you have evidence that will prove ghosts!

The moon or Mars? Yurika

Yesterday, my friend and I talked about the moon because last week, it is a full moon. So, we talk about the moon and space, and then a question came up in my mind. Should we go to the moon? Today, I’m going to talk about this question.

              

I really think that we absolutely should go to the moon because we need to find new places to live for the people who are going to be around in like 500 years, and the moon’s one step for us to find those places. I also think it is really interesting to learn that there once was water on the moon. So, I’m really interested in that kind of scientific news, at the same time, it’s hard to justify how much money it costs to explore space and to explore the moon when we have so many practical problems on earth. These kinds of problem are very considerably.

              

Now, the NASA’s astronauts consider that we should go to Mars because there also once was water on Mars. In the worst of the case, when humans finally have to blast off for another world, which planet should we go? The NASA’s astronauts consider this question now. But, this question is only for them? You think it doesn't reach for us? I think this question is for people who live in the earth. We’ll need to figure out whether we should push on with the human exploration of Mars.

              

You might think it’s not realistic images, but we’ll need to consider going to the moon or Mars to live someday. Now, I ask for you. Which plant should we explore for the future the world we live? Is the moon better to live? Is Mars better to live? or another planet?

              

Thank you for reading and your attention!!

FOOD I LOVE AND FOOD I HATE - NAHHAL 

Today in this blog I will talk about food I LOVE and food HATE. 

FOOD IN GENERAL 

We can't imagine how food is important to us not just to survive, we also enjoy eating food. 

In many countries they use food to show love. Which is people who are from these countries cook with love. For example mother cook for her children with love. The wife cook for her husband. 

 Also, there are many kind of food in the whole world that means,

many countries many food.

So, I will mention some kind of food such as chanciness food, Japanese food, Indian food, Mexican food, American food and for sure Arabic food. 

FOOD I LOVE

Now, I will focus in food which I love.

I love spice food, black pepper, red pepper. I really like the test of these spice.

But I don’t eat it a lot, because my family doesn’t like spice food .

When I cook sometimes they always told me don’t put black or red pepper in food.

But I do, And that make them angry.

Chocolate is the best.

Chocolate makes me happy. Sometime when I feel sad or depress I just eat chocolate then my feeling change, it is like a magic to me.

FOOD I HATE

I will tell you what I really really heat, I hate TOMATO. I don’t like tomato test

with food especially in burger. I always told the person who talk my order don’t put tomato.

My friend’s recommend to try eat Katsudon which is Japanese food . it is including pork and egg . but I told her I can’t try this dish because I can eat pork . but I still want to try another Japanese dish .

In the end that is not all .

Thanks t modern technology ,humans have less to do .The driverless car is made for factory .It takes some advantages for human .First ,driverless cars can improve the safety .On research ,over 90 percent of car accidents are the result of human error ,because the driver may sleepy or run red lights by driving .If the computer control the car ,they will obey the traffic rules .Second ,we don't need drive a long time by myself ,because it is boring .You are free that you can play with your family on the car .You will not pay attention the driving .You just talk to computer where didi you go and take break .Third ,the driverless cars use the less fuel .However ,everything has a disadvantage ,if the driverless cars make a accident who is responsible .For this accident .

Moving to another country- Saud Almutairi

Hello


             Do you think moving to another country is easy? First of all, a lot of people immigrate to another country for many things . There is people immigrate from their country because of war. Also there are people move to study . And I'm one of these people . I moved from my country to have education. So I came here and I study English program to improve my English language. So I can communicate with other people. Also I can pass the IELTs exam and go to university. But sometimes I feel bored because I really miss my family and friends in Kuwait .


         I think its hard to move to another country . Because you will face a lot of obstacles Such as, Homesick and the culture shock.  So you to change your self. your behave. Also you need to adapt a lot of things, like food. maybe some people see that changing a lot of things in there selves is very hard. So they see the change especially moving to another country is very hard and difficult to adapt. But I see America very good country to moved there Because of the people are very kind and like to help others. So until now I didn't face too much trubeles here in America.

The shoes can effect people's health .education and well-being .If children have a shoes help children to keep health ,because you can cut your feet on rough terrain or broken glass in some cases ,which can lead to infection and risk of death .If children have shoes ,they can go to school and get a good education ,because in some countries ,children are not permitted to go to school if they don't have shoes .If children have shoes ,they can save them confident ,because this is a way improve a children's self-esteem .Children are thrilled to be able to walk through their village in their new shoes .You're also getting back the satisfaction of knowing that someone else is benefiting in may ways from your purchase .

Advertising-Ray

Accroding to the article , the history of advertising began in ancient Greece , The ancient Greece people wrote "For sale" on the sides of their hourse , and the time to the 1440s the printing press was invented so flyers and posters were mass-produced , and until 1600s newspaper and magazines were common even they also wrote and produced their own ads, and until the time to the 1920s and 1940s the radio and the television were invented,the event change the advertising industry and affect the most of people , until now the interent and television are the main part of the advertising,And talk about the production of ads , now the most compaines will hire the advertising firms to making ads , and before making ads , the companies will understand the product and the main customers , and then research the customer's buying habits and try to find out the reason why the customers buy a product , after the research the advertising firms will design a attractive slogan to attract customers attention.

Also, I really exciting about meeting my cats!! I really miss my cats!! When I call my mother, I always asked my mother what they are doing now, and my mother always said that they are sleeping now. I just want to see them, but my mother is so lazy to show to me because there so many cats. It is heard to show to me all of them, so I can’t see all of them until I get back my country.

                

         Second, I’m definitely going to eat Japanese food!! I really miss them!! So I’m definitely eat too much them!! I haven’t eaten Japanese food so long…! My favorite Japanese food is yakisoba! Yakisoba is Japanese flied noodle!! I really hope you have opportunity to eat this Japanese food after!

moving to another country-Ahmad almutairi

hello!
I'm going to talk about life in USA.life in america will be esasy if we try to adapt to it.Becasue if a person want to live and adapt he will do it by learn more about life in usa and about the culture.Alot of things will be strange and new on him.such as the food and the weather and people behavior.for me i adapt to life in usa although the life in kuwait is so different and so easy comparison with life in america.some people disagree with me and other agree.people who disagree they think that because the weather in kuwait to hot and there is no entertainment place like there in america also they think that in america you can find whatever you want and you don't need to travel out USA in the summer you can travel from state to other and there is many beautiful places in america such as Miami ans Las vegas and New York and LA,san diego also there is alot of places to visit in summer and you don't need to travel and pay alot of money.also the food in USA is good and delicious  especially food in california. On the other side people who agree they think life in kuwait is easy becasue kuwait is a small country you can go in wherever you want in a short time also population census is low and there is no traffic in  street almost empty.at the end the important thing to adapt to another country life is try hard to adapt an learn more about these country.

  Hayao Mizaki is person who I admire .Hayao Miyazaki is one of Japan's greatest animation directors .When I was a child ,I saw the movie that he made .He is a animation director who always likes perfect thing .All his works have a kind of yearning for a better life .He has been interested in animation since third grade .Then ,in 1959 ,he went to the children's Literature Research Association in his university .He is not only a animation director ,but also is a pacifist .He said that he would not go to a country that was attacking Iraq ,so he refused to got his Oscar .He hates war .He  loves peace .Each of Hayao Mizaki's works shows different themes ,but dream ,environmental protecting life ,survival of people effect his message .That's why I like him .

  By stander effect happen in our life everyday. The more witness see the bad thing happen, the less

 possible they may help, there are have three reason why they do not help victim.

  

   First, they may thing other witness will help the victim. For example, a woman was murdered in front 

of her apartment in 1964 in New York city. There are have 38 witness, but no one call the police 

office or help this woman. This thing was reported in newspaper. The writer of newspaper thing these 

people are selfish and cold, but the writer in " A Question of Number" thing it is not their fault. The 

writer thing every one may do the some thing because the more people see the bad thing, and the less 

possible they will help. 

  

  Second, sometime the witness do not know if the person really need help. If we see some one in the 

river, and look like she or he need help. If the people who see this thing are laugh and do nothing, you 

might thing they are just playing a game, if you go to help this people, they may think you are stupid. 

If you see the people who see this thing are yelling and calling the police, you might thing the person 

who in the river need help.

  

   Finally, the witness are afraid to hurt, if they help the victim. If we see two people are fighting on the 

street, we might not give them help because we are afraid to get hurt by there two people, and we 

hope other witness could help these people.

  

Life in Riverside(2) Homestay SACHI

Hi!
As I mentioned last blog, I'm writing about my homestay family!


My host family is Daddy and Mom. Their children have already leave home so I use their room.
Daddy works in church. He likes playing golf very much so at my home, there are over 10 golf club sets. He always smiles and nice to me. He takes me to school and home everyday. He cooked for delicious dinner for me. He also answers my questions anytime. He always helps me a lot and makes me happy so I love him so much!! Mom works at near my home. She asked me about my school or holiday. She sometimes talks about her experiences or stories of their ex-host students. It was really fun. Also she is my pronunciation teacher! She tells me correct pronounce. They are going to take me to Palm Springs this weekend!! I can not wait!


Also I have roommate named Manae. She is Japanese and we are same university and same department. However, I have never talked with her before we live together. Therefore, when I knew she would be my roommate, I was little nervous. But now I think she is the best partner for me! She is funny and friendly. She is smart. She is one year old than me so she is like my big sister.(honestly, I think she is little sister:p) We bought Gel nail machine so we going to do by ourselves! that the things that I am looking forward to do most! Also we are going to travel at the winter vacation.

Thank you reading my blog!
Next blog I'll write about my holidays!(316 words)

   Today ,I will talk about the topic that is a "Ave we responsible for the world we live in " .For this topic ,I have three statement that are two I agree and one I disagree .First of all ,I agree "Parents should be held if their children play truant from school" ,because parents have the responsibility teach children what thing they should do and they shouldn't do .You need to demand your kids .For example ,a boy play truant from school ,but their parents don't care .When they are older maybe they will regret .Second ,I agree"Responsibility to your family is more important than anything else " ,because I think the family is most important than anything .If  you can't responsibility to your family .How can you do anything perfect .For example ,someone think the success is m,ost important ,so they don't care health and family .Finally ,they got a lot of money but they lose the most important thing that is family and health . Finally ,I disagree "It is ok for parents to spy on their children " ,because if children find parents spy on them maybe they will not trust you again .It will impact relationship between parents and children .For example ,some parents like read children's daily .If children know that .Parents  will lose trust from children .

possible problems and benefits of driverless cars -RAY

The driverless car's possible problems are it can't anticipate the unexpected , and it can't recognize the police's commander . Also.if an accident does happen , how can we blame , so the driverless car still have a lot of problems need to solve , but also the driverless car's benefits are not a few , For example :the driverless car is safety because robot is not like human , have many different problems , therobot don't get sleep . run red lights or make bad judgments , so safety is the best benefit of driverless car , except safety the driverless car also have others benefitslike when you use driverless car , and you can do your thing and don't need to hand in steering wheel , or maybe use driverless car would use less fuel , so have a lot of advantages , and also have a lot of problem , But in the future , the driverless car will popular or not is decide by consumers .So we can look forward to the future , maybe in the future everyone set in the car and can have a good meal , can play the game, can talk to each other , even can have a good sleep , I think that will be a nice thing .

What kind of difference between Japan and America-Tomomi

I came America for about 2 months.
I spent good time to American life everyday.
Today, I write about what difference between America and Japan.

When I went to LA downtown with my friends, I was surprised about gap between the rich and the poverty. I knew that America has a problem about big gap between the rich and the poverty. However, in the fact, I was so sad when I found them. Homelesses are also in Japan, but Japan provides something by government but I think that of course America's government provides the needy however, they help the needy more less than Japan's government.

American people is more enthusiasm about something, kindness and friendly than the Japan. Why I think about that. Because, my host family invites the party another country's people every Friday. Even if my host family is busy or their condition is bad, they always take place the party. I was surprised about their spiritual and I figure out about their kindness for people. In Japan, my family and I have never invited other people. so I am always freshness and good and new experience for me. I am glad to see and communicate with another country's people and new person. 

Moreover, the American is importance their religion. I sometimes went to Church following my host family, then I felt about the American is importance religion every time. I understand their spiritual because I am Buddhist and I also treasure my religion so I am happy. We believe in difference religion however, our belief spiritual is same. One day I told my host family about I am Buddhist, they understood my belief and they asked some questions about Buddhism so I was glad and it was nice experience each other. 

I have ever been to America before I came here, so I have not gotten homesickness yet. My friends, family and my host family support for me everyday. Therefore, my American life is comfortable. I would like to find new American lifestyle, culture, religion.

  Today, more and more people need our help, especially in developed countries. We can help those people by there four ways.

  First we can buy a meal, and talk with old people because almost lonely old people need someone talk with them. According to "MY friend Bill".  the writer required to do something kind for old people. He buys a meal to old people, and talk with them. He finds that he can learn a lot of thing during the conversation, and he also think listening the life experience of old people is interesting. For old people, Having someone listen their life experience let them feel no more lonely. Finally, the Writer decided to see the old person once a week, and focus his studies on the elderly.

  Second, we can buy a pair of shoes to poor people because shoes are very important for our life. Some school do not allowed students go to school without shoes, and having a pair of shoes can make children become more confident, also Having a pair of shoes can improve children's health. 

  Third, we can donate poor people some basic source. For example, Heifer international  send animals to people in very poor countries. The people who get help from this company can have a goat. They can have milk, and sell them. They can feed themselves by this goat. 

    

MY FAVORITE PLACE SACHI

   Hello. Today, I’m going to introduce 5 my favorite places in the world.

Before I chose this topic, I don’t know what should I write. (honestly I completely forgot about blog..) Anyway, I chose this topic because I would like to share my favorite with you.

  First place is Sacramento. I visited there at least 3times. When I was a high schools student, I went there for the first time as study abroad. I stayed 3 weeks with American family.  I went to school with my host sister everyday except weekend. There are nothing special, but a lot of warm people in there and also I love view from my host family’s house. There is the capital of CA so if you have chance to go, I strongly to recommend to go!

  

   Second place is Rosenheim, Germany. This is also I went as study abroad. There air is really clean so I like ridding bike or bicycle in there. Also not so big city so people don’t care about so many things. For example, nobody care I am bare foot or not. Also, when I there, my German friend and me wore just swimsuit and rode a bike but anyone say something. Around Rosenheim, there are many famous places such as Neuschwanstein Castle, Würzburger Residenz, Bambelg old town. Neuschwanstein Castle is famous as motif of Cinderella Castle.

   Last place is Japan. I know I should choose one place of japan but each prefecture has own great point so I could not choose… Anyway my favorite points of Japan are food, people, and view. Japanese food looks really beautiful and delicate make. Japanese are little shy but they always care about someone include stranger. Maybe you have already known that japan has a lot of earthquake. At these crises, we help and encourage each other. And also japan has great beautiful view especially Kyoto, Nagano, Hokkaido. Kyoto is one of the historical places in Japan.

  So these three places are my favorite places so I hope you visit someday!!(342 words)
