Gold Cat tournament

The yacht race tournament named"Gold Cat tournament"was held last Saturday in Enoshima. The reason why the race name is Gold Cat tournament is that the victory cup is a gold cat.



The condition was that light wind blew and it was wavy, so it was difficult to sail.
I was not abele to join the race because I changed my sailing task crew to skipper and I was not good enough. However, it was good for me to watch how to sail well. I would like to practice and try!

WRITING- ENGLISH SPORTS

Cricket is a sport which has the second largest population in the world. In another words, it means that it is worth thinking about cricket. Now, what cricket is, the history of cricket and cricket will be shown.

  Depending on the format, a game of cricket can last hours, a day, on a case of test cricket up to 5 days. Basic rules called rose do not change in a case of each format. Cricket is the sport that 22 players use a bat and a ball on the grass big field called the “oval”. Cricket is like baseball. Each team takes its turn to bat attempting to score runs, while the other team fields. Each turn is an inning same the baseball. However unlike baseball, generally one team bats once. The aim is getting a lot of points while batting. Over is the same as out in baseball. One team can bat while counting 20 overs.

  The history of cricket began in the 13^th century. Shepherds played as a play at the first time. Cricket became a major sport in Britain in 18^th century and MCC which stands for Marrieborn cricket club made the basic cricket rule. Professional cricket clubs were established. In the 19^th century, cricket spread over the world. Now cricket is played in Australasia, England, New Zealand ,the Indian subcontinent, the West Indies and Southern Africa.

  Cricket is not popular in Japan. I searched the book about cricket written injapanese, but I could not find. I suggest that the association of cricket of Japan would write books and videos in Japanese and in English classes, text book introduce about cricket. Japanese should play cicket.

Nice off!

 I went to Ebisu last Thursday.I had a cahnce to go to the live of UNCHAIN.  UNCHAIN was formed in Kyoto in 1996. The menbers are Masanori Tanigawa(Vo.),Masafumi Sato(Gt.), Hiroaki Tani(B),Shogo Yoshida(Dr).Taking influence from Blues, Jazz, and of course rock music, they have a lot of originality. With a high pitched back up singer and a milder one for a frontman it really helps the band with vocals, as does the great work they do on the songs instrumentals. The vokal is also good. He sings strongly and beautifully.I like UNCHAIN!

The live was held on LIQUIDROOM. The concept of the live was celebration of the new album "N.E.W.S" and it was the tour final day. The live was so fantastic and I was sooo excited!


 After enjoying the live, I ate ramen  of "Afuri". That was based on solty soup and ctron tasty. It was delicious.



I spent a good time!

The Intercollegiate sailing championship

The intercollegiate sailing championship in Odo,Fukuoka was held from October 31th to November 3th. Odo is a famous place which wind often blows strongly in autumn and winter.

 

However, beginning 2 days did not have enough wind for race. All members had stress for that, but it is said that everything can happen in the championship. We maintain the motivations. Last 2 days were in survival conditions. The wind blew so strongly. It was severe for players .On the other hand ,we practiced a lot in the windy condition, so races became simple for us.

Lastly ,Keio got the 3^rd place. We aim for the victory so it was a failure., but I am satisfied with the result.

WRITING- STREET CARNIVAL

Street festivals are held worldwide and they are also cultural events. By searching festivals, we can get information about racial characteristics. In this essay, Goa Carnival is talked.

 Goa was a colony of Portugal. The old beautiful churches built in Goa are the UNESCO world heritage place, and we can see construction like the model of a baroque style and Goa culture is affected by Portugal.

Then, Goa carnival was first started in Goa in 1961.

It was first celebrated by King Momo ,which is one of the Chaos King of the state of the

Since the state has experienced different the reign of the Portuguese rulers more than 500 years, this festival will reflect some of the Portuguese lifestyle.

However, recently, people from different caste and creed, will celebrate in this carnival in the same way and participate. This Goa festival will drew its meaning from the Latin word "carnival", which means "to throw away the meat. Therefore, one of the strict rules of this important festival of Goa, is to withhold the meat in time carnival. So as to extend generally 3 to 4 in one year, this carnival is one of the eagerly awaited Goa festival.

In early time, festival was exclusively famous by local residents of the state. However, currently, the carnival of Goa attracts a lot of people of different several places in India.

The most characteristics thing of the carnival is a rich decoration. People who join the carnival wear gorgeous costumes and walk and dance.

 The Goa carnival will be continued forever.
