The ant and the dove

"Not if I can help it," thought the ant. He ran up the man's leg and bit him.
The man yelped and dropped the net to clutch his leg.
"Thank you my little friend," cooed the dove, as she flew away.
And the moral is... One good turn deserves another. (p.22-23)

One day, an ant had slipped in to the water. He couldn't swim, so he panicked. And then, a friendly dove flew by and she helped him. The following day, the ant saw the dove. She was trapped by a man. Then, the ant decided to help her and he ran up the man's leg and bit him. Thanks to the ant, the dove was saved. The moral of this story was that one good turn deserves another. After I read it, I thought that I had to return the favor to my friends, family, and so on.

My Tuesday ;)

I went to a cafe with my friend after school recently. My friend and I talked about a recent event in our school, our friends, and our high school days. We talked for a long time, so I went home a little later than usual, but I had a very good time. I think we were so noisy because we laughed out loud there. We might cause people in a cafe a lot of trouble, so I am sorry about this. We will meet next Tuesday, then we will quiet...

The Spider and the Beehive

The spider was ready for the next treat. But when he tried to climb out of the hive, he was stuck. His had become too big! "Help! Get me out!" he cried. The boy said, "You have not been very nice to me. Good-bye, greedy spider!" Then off he went.(pp. 12-13) Today I read The Spider and the Beehive. The book was written by Kama Einhorn. Once upon a time, there was a small village and a little boy and a tricky spider are in it. The boy was good at finding the biggest and sweetest fruit in the village. Then, the tricky spider suggested going to jungle and getting some fruits with the boy. The boy and the spider went into the jungle, but the spider had fruits all to himself, and then he gained weight, so when he ate up all the sweet honey into a beehive, he could not get out of it! The boy did not help him. Ahter all, the spider was able to get out, but he mended his ways and always shared his fruits since then. I think that the spilit of mutual aid is very very im

Stay with my friend

Today, I'm going to talk about my weekend. I stayed with my friend's new house. She and I are from the same hometown and went to our scool with her until quite recently, but she moved to Kumamoto city near our scool, so I could not go together. I went to her house for the first time. I took chopstick rests to her because she told me that she wanted them. Her room is very clean. I ate foods made by her, and it's very delicious. I had a nice time!
