youtube and other video sites

Last week we viewed youtube "educationally" so I decided to pick out some choices
that could be a bit helpful to be both educated and entertained ;)
And just a note I was gonna post this last week but I kinda ran out of time
and completely forgot about this so I'm posting this today.

Anyway... like dr. kaya said last week, you can watch tons of videos like...
Obama's speech, how to do's in english, animes that has subtitles and so on...

But a lot of anime videos on youtube get deleted for illegal copyright...
which is sometimes a bummer so i reccomend http://www.watchanimeon.com/
there are tons of anime you can watch and i think its a good site for people who are majorly in anime ;)

---------------------------
raw-japanese no subtitles
subbed-with subtitles
dub-everything is in english


and for people who wants to watch english cartoons like simpsons
or shows heres some sites the "I" reccomend

south park studios (rated for 16 above....i mean it...)
http://www.southparkstudios.com/

favorite tv shows (latest seasons of gossip girl, house, heros, etc...)
http://tvshowmania.blogspot.com/

simpsons (only able to be watched in the u.s. so if you're over there try it :))
http://www.thesimpsons.com/

well enjoy and hope your interest into english culture increase!

pbs kids

Today I will be showing about PBS kids!
And just a note I thought I posted this post last week but it wasn't and half of the stuff that I wrote about was deleted so I am going to explain again...ORZ
Any way... pbs kids is from the site "pbs", which Dr.Kaya showed us in class.
It's a site mainly for kids but I think its another fun way to learn enlgish :D
The main cartoons shown on pbs are Barney, Sesame Street, Arthur...and they were being shown since I was little.
Even though this site is aimed for kids, I think it is a great way to learn english for people who just started to learn :D
Sesame Street is a show for children from 3-5, its like the NHK show "Eigo de asobo".
Charcters like Elmo, Big bird, Cookie Monsters gives out tons of examples of words that is used with the letter and it changes every week!
PBS kids shows a movie of Sesame Street for free and has many educational games.
But the games are mostly aimed for 3-6year olds so I kind of reccomend the games for people who are patient ^^;

Today's song:

About facebook (educationally)

Okay enough fooling around and lets start focusing about "english"
....
Today's topic I am going to introduce is "facebook"
The reason why is because it's a great way to make friends from all around the world
and mainly a bunch of people from english-speaking countries are using it! :D

Also it like an english version of "mixi" so it's really fun for us college girls lol

Any way you're able to start out in japanese and join groups about what you like
and from there you can find many people who has the same hobby as you!
Or you can find friends that you once met out of Japan!!

Well I hope that my introduction to facebook helps out!

Oh and another reason why I reccomend facebook is...
-If you find friends from another couuntry it focuses you to try to communicate with them
-Because you want to find out more about your friends your reading skills will improve by reading there comments or profiles!
-You can chat real time with your friends across the sea
-You can learn slang (lol)
-If you become really good friends you can get them to help you with your english homework (lol)

Just becareful with some people who looks suspiscious!! ><;
and don't give too much profile about your self like this blog!

Today's song*

When I wake up I'm standing in a strange place and I just don't know where I am

Well Yesterday we had a game against Tokyo University.
BUT they say they would cancel the game if it was raining...
and it was a bit pouring but they decided to continue...
I really don't want to curse here so I'll say it nice.

ARE THEY CRAZY?! What are they thinking? I mean what are you suppose to do if one of my players or worst their players catch a cold!?!!!

Hopefully no one did except for me...but its not that bad just a few coughs and sneezes
well other than that I'm right now on a new diary hunt but I can't find the one that I like
and I'm kinda picky about that lol

I don't have any reasons why, but lately I'm addicted to the new PS game
Bayonetta's theme song something missing by miChi >v<
enjoy!

Shopping for labels.. shopping for love Manolo and Louis.. its all Im thinking of

I have no idea why but right now I have the erge of wanting to watch "SEX and the CITY movie" Xb
It's probably because of the song that I was listening to though... lololol
Any way I'm soooo glad that the yawaragi festival is over!!!
Now I don't have to worry about tea ceremony club for a while<3 >v<
but at the same time I need to worry about the "irekae-sen" for lacrosse..
why did Keio needed to win.... but that's through already so can't really complain any more Xb
I'm kinda starting to nag here so let me tell you about what I did during the Yawaragi festival!
The first day of Yawaragi the Sophomores were up bat performing the ceremony
in the "ryu-rei" style which you don't have to seiza and just sit in a chair lol
Well while every one was preparing the tea I was late since I had a game before Xb
and I completely forgot the names of the tools...I guess...well I forgot the name of it and I completely made a fool out of my self...
But while I was preparing the tea I almost forgot some of the parts but my friend
Yukako helped me out a bit so I think that pretty well went fine^^;

The second day of Yawaragi I GOT TO SEE SAKANA-KUN!!!
Since are room was in the nigo-kan's third floor we were right across
the symposium he was going to lecture :D
Other than that I'm glad that the Junior's perfomance went well
and us lower-classman hopefully did a good job helping out with preparing tea in the back room, working in the front, and working in the cloak.

Today we're going to party so I'm really excited about that! :D
now please enjoy listing to Fergie's Lables or Love

Turn the lights off in this place And she shines just like a star

Yesterday I went to tokyo jyoshi university to play against and have a
combinded practice with a club team named Mistral.
Mistral is a club team that's made up of employers of different organizations.
They were really strong, even though we lost a match still it became a good learning.
Other than that my week really did start off on the wrong foot but after the hurricane past by,
I think it took my bad carma with it and actually it's been a really good start this week :)

Today's bgm:
ne-yo
closer

mr. raindrops falling away from me now

It's raining it's poring the old man is snoring he bumped his head and uh.... never mind. It's an old nursery song that I learned when I was in kindergarten. Other nursery songs that are famous are...

Twinkle Twinkle Little Star

Baa baa black sheep

Jack and Jill

Hokey Pokey

I'm a little tea pot

Clean up song

Old Mcdonald

The itsy bitsy spider

ETC

And did you know that the alphabet song has the same melody as twinkle twinkle little star?

Any way my favorite songs from above are the hokey pokey and I'm a little tea pot, since both of them have a little dance.



I had fun doing it as a kid ^^
