Henry & Mudge: Take the Big Test

Henry's dog, Mudge, knows how to drool, chase the lawn mower, and be Henry's best friend. But he doesn't know how to sit, stay, or heel. Mudge needs to go to school.

Today, I read Henry and Mudge: Take the Big Test. Henry's dog Mudge is always causing trouble. Henry and his mother decide to make Mudge to go to school. After eight weeks at Papp's Dog School, Mudge earns a certificate and lots of liver treats. I heard that dogs can't understand what is right or wrong without being trained. So, Mudge was not a bad dog.

Vocabulary
・wag: 振り動かす
・sniff: においをかぐ
・heel: (犬が)ついてくる

My bands

The other day, my friend asked me to join his band as a guitarist, and it confirmed that I become a member of the band. I belong to another band already, so I didn't expect that I'm in two bands. I'm busy for preparing for a concert, but having a really good time.

I'm going to play this song.

Mr Bean

Mr Bean eats some popcorn and hurts his tooth.
Now he has toothache! Can he takes out the tooth or does he go to the dentist ...?

Mr Bean had a toothache. He tried to take out it. He put a string round his tooth, and tied it round a doorknob. But it was the doorknob that took out instead of his tooth. Next, he went out to the road, and he tied the string round a tree. He stood across the street and waited for a car to pass. I was surprised his idea.
I don't know Mr Bean at all, but this story was fun.

First activity in my band club

The other day, I played some songs with my friends in a Folk song club. Although the club name includes Folk song, no one in the club is interested in Folk song. So, We played Punk instead of Folk. It was so exciting!

The Smallest Cow in the World

There is a cow named Roise in a large farm. She is hated because she is mean. However a boy whose name is Marvin loves her.

My favorite music

Today, I'm going to talk a bit about my favorite music.

I love Rock 'n' Roll, In particular, 80's Hard Rock. How do you think of Hard Rock? I guess you think it as a very scary music. However, it is completely wrong. Hard Rock is an enjoyable and cool music, so please check it out!

The Bear's Mouth

At the summer camp two teams have to race to find some flags hidden in the forest. They are told the final flag is "in the bear's mouth." Who find the flag, and how do they get it out of the bear's mouth?

Today, I read this book. The team that did't cooperate with each other couldn't win. I learned from this book that it is very important to work together on the task.

Golden Week

This year's golden week was very boring because I did a part time job every day. I deeply regret that I did nothing special during golden week.

The other day, my father came home from a business trip, so I went out to eat with my family after a long time.

I rented some CDs in a rental shop as usual. I really love them. Rock music always makes me excited.
