Politics and Reflections
If you were working for the UN, which job would like to do using your English abilities?
If I was working for the UN, I want to work at the UNICEF. I want to do for world's children.
Recently, I watched the documentary TV program. Then I know the real circumstances at the developing country. I was very shocked and very sad. There are many children who want to eat anythings. But they can not eat sonethings everyday!! Can you imagine that their feelings?
I think every children should be equality. But it is difficult in the fact. I want every children to eat many foods. So I want to do somethings for them.
Therefore, we must not leave foods, waste the money!

Homework
Q.What kind of work place do you think you will work best in?
I want to work in New York.
My images, women who work in New York are very cool!
Besides, I think American people especially New Yoker have power to work .
During the business time, they work very very hard. But finish their work, they do what they want. I like this switch.
But Japanese work overtime of their own motion. In addiion, they bring their work home.
This is not good fot Japanese, I think. Japanese should cherish own time more!

My model man is like a this graph.
It is very important for me to fit with my sense of value.
Next important point is fashionable. I don't like man who is unfashionable. For example, like a "Akihabara Man". Besides gentle and chivalrous man is very nice!
