my other classes
I take 17 classes a day, my favorite class is Japanese phonetics class. The teacher of the class is really nice and cute. And I also like how she teaches. First, she teaches new stuff with following a textbook, then she askes some questions. when we can not get the answer, she makes fun of us, because we are Japanese! I also like different culture understanding class. The teacher is really nice, we watched Rakugo in English, that was really interesting! [81 words]

Essay 1-02b: an English Website review
Christmas is the most widely celebrated festival world over, and also the most popular festival globally. christmas eve is my birthday this is one reason why i picked one. Christmas is for joy, for giving and sharing, for laughter, for coming together with family and friends, for tinsel and brightly decorated packages. Just think about Christmas, it makes me happy. thats why i picked Christmas to search. i searched for christmas, history, Santa Claus. Santa Claus is one of my favorite person.
First, i searched for SANTA CLAUS
He has 3 names; St. Nicholas, Kriss Kringle and Santa Clause. the first story of him was told by Thomas Nast in 1822. The model of Santa Claus, St.Nicolas was ill. his mother came to narse him only 2days a week. so he didn't have anything other 5days. he loved children, sometimes he gave some gift to children throw into their window.
one time, he threw golds into the chimney to help daughter out. The traditional association of chimneys with Santa Claus comes from this story.
Next i searched about Christmas gifts.
we can hardly think of a Christmas without Gifts.
Christmas is a unique festival of merry making and gift-giving.
I looked some Christmas shopping website
.
it was really interesting that i found the website says don't forget to buy gifts for # Family
# Friends
# Neighbors
# Co-workers
# Boss
# Mail Carrier
# Other Service People
they are pretty much everyone around you! through searching about christmas gifts, i figured in some country, christmas is a day to thank for everyone to being around.
I also looked up Christmas songs.
Christmas songs
During the holidays, people enjoy traditional songs that they do not listen to during the rest of the year. and I found history of the one of most famous christmas song in Japan.
History of “Jingle Bells”
First written by James Lord Pierpont, this popular song is different in that it does not mention Christmas, Jesus, Santa Claus or any of the other iconic figures associated with the holiday. it is just about winter fun. The lyrics and tune have changed slightly from the original version. Most people are only familiar with the first verse: the other “lost” verses deal with a young man riding his sleigh around, trying to impress the girls.
Christmas had celebrated for so long. if you look up about christmas on internet,there are so many information. and i didnt know most of them.i didn't even know one of my favorite person Santa Claus. i figured christmas isn't just a holiday to celebrate christ's birth. songs, gifts, trees, Santa Claus... many people and things made this holiday all together. it is always great to know everyone's favorite holiday christmas.
