cell phones

I talked about cell phones and computers with my classmate in the speaking class. I talked with Yui about the theme too. So I am going to write about it.

I like cell phones, because they are very useful. I have two cell phones. They are docomo and softbank. Both of two have cameras. I can make telephone calls free when I use softbank cell phone. I usually make telephone calls two times every day. Do you know “Tadatomo”? It is very useful for people who talk by cell phone a long time. I talk with my friends by cell phone every day. So I spent a lot of money on charge of cell phone before. However I can talk with my friends free! Maybe, I send twenty e-mails every day. I spend on it \12,000 every month. I first had my own cell phone when I was in the third year of junior high school. My favorite points of my cell phone are color and shape. My cell phone is white and very cute shape. The most expensive charge for my cell phone was \20,000. By the way, do you like to use picture writings in e-mails? I like to use them very much, because they are very cute. I especially like docomo’s picture writings. So I use docomo’s cell phone for a long time. I have used my cell phone about one year. To change the subject, I like softbank’s CM. A dog plays father in the CM. It is very funny and the dog become popular in Japan. Have you ever watched the CM at least once, haven’t you? I like computers, because they are very convenient. I do not have my own computer, but my family uses a computer together. I use it for get information that I want to know and do my assignments. I do not send e-mails by the computer.

Yui likes cell phones, because they are convenient and she can get a lot of information. She has a cell phone. It is docomo and it has a camera. She makes one or two telephone calls every day. She sends ten or twenty e-mails every day. She spends on \10,000 every month. She first had her own cell phone when she was a high school student. Her favorite points of her cell phone are design and color. It is pink and design is cute. The most expensive charge for her cell phone was \12,000. She likes to use picture writing in e-mails, because she likes sends a lot of them. She has used her cell phone one and half years. She wants to buy new one. She likes computers so-so, because she is not good at use them. She uses a computer with her family, but she wants to have her own computer. She uses it for homework and sends e-mails. She uses it about an hour every day.

MR 2-01: Mrs. Doubtfire


I watched “Mrs.Doubtfire”. This is a comedy movie, but I think it is not only comedy movie but also humanism movie. There are some themes in this movie for example love, family, human nature, bond, children and so on. I think love and family are more important than the other themes. So I am going to write about these themes.

I thought that this story is very interesting and humor when I watched it for the first time. Daniel Hillard who is a main character of this story has a sense of humor. I laughed when I watched his behavior. He was disguised in woman’s clothes. At first sight, his behavior seems crazy. However this story also taught me importance of family and love. Daniel divorced his wife and he had a light to meet his children only once a week. He loves his children so he tried to meet them more often. Also his children love him. Although they are family but they cannot live together. However, he is bound to his children by ties of family. There is a feeling of hospitality in this movie.

I think love is one of the themes of this story. Daniel did not find a steady job. On the other hand, his wife is a career woman. They live a life without talking but they have affection each other. They may considerate of each other even if they got divorced.

I think “Family” is another one of the most important themes of this story. Daniel’s wife divorced him. They have two daughters and a son, but they cannot live together in the future. There are a lot of shapes of family for example a fatherless family, a motherless family, a family that does not have a blood relative and so on. They may have some problems, but they are tightly bound together by family ties. Daniel always loves his children and always thinking them. He did not get along with his wife, but he loves his wife. The massage that I got from this movie about this theme is importance of family. I live with my father, mother, and a younger brother. I thought it is a common shape of family before, but now, I think that I am happy because we can live together. In the movie, Mrs.Doubtfire works in Hillard’s house as a housekeeper. When Mrs. Doubtfire was in the house, his children and his ex-wife looked so happy. Also he was happy too.


This movie made a deep impression on me. When I finished watching this movie, I think it is a heart-warming story. I felt various feelings such as interest, heartrending sorrow and so on. I like Daniel’s sense of humor very much. He often set me laughing with his humor. Also he taught me many important things. I found that ties of family bind family even if they cannot live together. I enjoyed watching this movie very much. After finished watching this movie, I think that I have to take care of my family.
