Nozomi Tahara

Hello!

My name is Nozomi Tahara, 1st grade of Economics and Sciences faculty of Niigata University. As you know, I am recurrent student (mature) from 2021. I am just university student! 😃 Please call me “Non chan”!

  I was raised Niigata city until I graduated from high school and transferred to Chiba prefecture and Tokyo because I needed to my next stage of high education. Of course I used to work some big companies after I graduated, but I needed to take care of my families and I decided to back to hometown of Niigata city 2 years ago. Sometimes I am worried about my decision but now I am slightly feeling comfortable feelings when I talk with my families.

   Why do I need to study an English? I don’t know reason why I am continuing to be studying an English, but I just want to improve my abilities and skills related foreign languages. Needless to say, I still like to learn and understand many interesting things about overseas. For example, I had traveled about 6 or 7 countries. It was great experienced for me to understand overseas and cultures, and had kept touch many histories and heritages. If you have chance to travel abroad after pandemic, please go to abroad!

   If I have a free time, I like walking with my dog.🐶 My dog is Kaninchen Dachshund, and his name is Will. He is 13 years old now, but he is still fine and so lovely. If I have much spare times, I would like to go out with him where we want! My life is changed since I had a dog. I believe that the dogs soothes and comforts people's minds instantly. In addition to that, I like listening to music and watching a TVs. My recent favorites are BTS and Adele, Ed Sheeran. Musics makes me so happy! For TVs, I prefer to watch many genres sports. Especially I was deeply impressed with Beijing Olympics games.

 



  Regarding my good point is to have a strong sense of curiosity in everything! Almost certainly, most of people need not to quit job and will not choose to reenter the university, I think. However, many problems may have faced us every day. That is especially why I would like to continue to pursue something goal. On the other hand, my bad point is to give up dislike subject so easily. Especially I don’t like mathematics related! Because I did not study it for a long time, and it was so difficult to solve the problem. I hope I would be overcome in near future.

   Finally, my goals are to keep an honesty in my life and would like to encourage and help many people whenever someone felt down.

      Hi Kazuki,

      Thank you for your comments about my blog.
      Regarding your question about Ed, my favorite song are “Shivers” and “Bad Habits”.
      These songs are entirely characteristic of him, I think.
      How about you?

      Nozomi☺

      Hi Yu,

      Thank you for your comment about my lovely dog!
      Yes, he is so cute and lovely, I think!

      Regarding your questions, my recommendation is Rome and Firenze in Italy.
      The time is slowly and feel a relax because lots of delicious food and heritages are there.
      If you like to read a novel, please read, or watch a movie about “Angels & Demons” written by Dan Brown.
      This story was Italy and Vatican City related.

    I agree with you that living with a dog is a wonderful thing. I really find chilling with my toy poodle, Neo, really helps me de-stress and taking Neo for walks gives me an excuse to get active.
    I respect your choice to move back to Niigata & return to college. Learning is for life. :-)

      Hi Kaho,

      Thank you for your kind comment.

      As you know, I traveled many countries.
      Especially, I recommend you to go to Rome and Firenze.
      If you like to eat foods much, it is worth taking the time to go abroad there, I think.
      Taiwan is close to go abroad from Niigata, and easy to go and not too expensive.

      I expect that you will be learning much from your experience, and please whatever happens, do not lose hope.

      Thank you very much!

An newspaper company attacked by pressure group　Hinata Nishizawa & Yuki Sawano

Image
   Yesterday morning, Yamaguchi-gumi, a right-wing pressure group, attacked the Asahi newspaper company in Tokyo. As a result, about 20 members of the group were arrested. At that time there were 500 people who were working in the company. There were 100 people injured. There were no fatalities. They used something like baseball bats to attack. Due to this attack, the company was damaged. For example, 1000 windows were broken, and some articles were stolen. The cost to repair the windows is 1,000,000 yen. The group suggested that the Asahi company tells people incorrect news, so they attacked. The Asahi did not publish today’s newspapers. The prime minister, KISHIDA Humio, said “It is unforgiveable to attack freedom of expression. We need to defend it.”

Hello! My name is Yu Obata, please call me Yu. I grew up in Niigata, and I live in an apartment near the Niigata University with my twin sister who also belong to Niigata University. I'm a 2nd year student, and my major is agriculture engineering. To overcome the weakness of speaking and listening to English, I take part in this English-language course. After this program, I will be able to speak English better than before. I like vegetable, rice, meat, fruit, and everything to eat, but I don't like bitter one like coffee. When I have free time, I often watch movies, eat something, drive a car, or talk with my sister. Though I like eating, I don't like eating out. As a part-time job, I have typed what teachers said for those who are hearing impaired. It was conducted by Niigata University.  I describe my good points as having rich imagination. However, I have a bad point spending much time to decide something. I'd like to travel all over the world as well as Japan in th...

Hi, my name is David Woodfield. I live in Dunedin, NZ, together with my wife, Patricia, our dog, Neo, and our daughter’s cat, Beetlejuice. I’m teaching this course in fulfilment of my duties as a teacher at the University of Otago. My likes include reading, watching TV and walking. I like reading books about faith, art & society. As for TV, I enjoy watching romantic movies. I like walking from my home to my office and taking Neo for walks around my neighbourhood . I’m not a fan of waiting in queues, eating chocolate that has a sticky or chewy centre, or trying to figure out what’s wrong when my computer isn’t doing what I want it to do. As you know, I am an English language teacher. I enjoy my job because I am interested in language and I like working with people from a variety of cultures. As for my good point, I would say it is that I’m optimistic. My bad point though is ‘leaving things to the last minute.’ My goal is to be a better person.
