Keio Soccer

Keio Soccer team is in season now. Fall season has many outside sports, such as soccer, girls swimming, girls tennis and cross-country. All these Keio sports clubs did great jobs in this season but Keio soccer team is soon becoming the first hurler which we never heard before.
The yearly Keio soccer had been also good but they never went to the state tournaments because other American clubs or teams were so good. However now they Keio soccer will an undying legend in Keio soccer history if they won next two games. Today they will have the second game in the sectional tournament and then, on Thursday, they might have home game if they won today. Many our 12th grade friends are in this soccer so we strongly hope they got the helps of god and get this game today.
If they would accomplish this great exploit, Keio might be like a party!


Let’s wish them to win and cheer them on!!!!

All Students Hungry

We have middle term examinations a couple of weeks later. Middle term exam has many subjects, such as Mathematics, Kokugo, English, Liner Algebra and Economics for 12th grade students. Therefore these two weeks will be the hardest one since this school year has began. Some students have already started preparing for exams. After this week, in another word next week, all afterschool practice will be stopped for exam. We all KEIO students are now in kind of chafing mood.

As usual right before the exam weeks, we cannot be satisfied with dinners in KEIO cafeteria. Some students might stay awake later in the night so they would eat extra foods while they study. That might make someone’s health not good. We have a lot of stresses or pressures on ourselves.

For trying to reduce our stresses, we went Applebee’s in last Saturday. Eating good food is the easiest and most efficient way to relax. I had a steak there. I thought now I’m ready for studying for exam!!

Field Day

On this Monday it was Columbus Day so we had happy three days off in a row. Before that, we had Field Day on Friday.

On Field Day, all students were playing many ball sports which are basketball, soccer, volleyball, handball and dodge ball. Each student would play few sports of them and I played basketball and volleyball. My team lost volleyball game but we won the basketball game against all classes as good luck would have it. Then we class K finally won as the total score. This Filed Day was great time to have fun with other students even whom you don’t know well before. We had a new understanding that sports are the amazing tool to communicate to others without any feeling of a delicacy. We will have PE festival in April so we hope to have some benefits from these experience.

SIX FLAGS

On last weekend, we went to Six Flags in New Jersey. Six Flags is a huge amusement park which has many interesting attractions or rides. Unfortunately, last year, we couldn’t go there because of hard rain. So we had looked forward to get there since last year.
In that morning, we woke up at 7:00am and left our school at 7:30. That was so early but nobody was late on time. It took about 3 hours with buses and we ate 2 breads and juices. When I woke up, buses already got to the park.
When we get to the entrance of the park, we could see a huge ride which is called King Daka. King Daka is the highest roller coaster in Six Flags. I tried to ride this roller coaster but the lines that people were waiting for it was so long and we had to wait for at least 2 hours. I hadn’t much time so give it up.
The most interesting ride for me in this park was NITRO. NITRO is also a roller coaster and it’s also high but most amazing thing is its length. Other coasters take about 1 or 2 minutes but NITRO takes their double or three times. If you could have opportunity to go Six Flags, I invite you to try it.

That was so good weekend for relaxing and refreshing.


Thank you.

The Weeks After Ice Breaker

Last weekend we had a first party　which is called Ice Breaker. The biggest aim of Ice Breaker is to be more familiar with new comer students. New comer students would know many current students, who are called Senpais in Japanese, and then Senpais could know and care about them. We Senpais had some performances to entertain them with music or dancing. My friend Akira Nihei who is president of student government had sung a Japanese famous pop song. He is a kind of good gagman. Their performance is very interested and I heard a lot of audience liked it. I think the new comer students could see other side of president of student government.

We ZION also had some performance at that party. I think it was kind of successful because my friends told me that new comer students’ performance was excellent. I know they had practiced so hard every day for this party. So, I’m very happy that they did great jobs and keio students really like them.

See you next time
