As I watched Stitch, Lilo, Nani and character in the movie Lilo & Stitch, I realized that family and friends to help each other are very important. I’m going to write about how important family, friends, to help each other.
At the beginning of Stitch was alone. He judged violent, and he escaped from the space to Hawaii, so he didn’t have friends and he was alone. He met Lilo and Nani there. Also, Lilo was alone, too. She lost her parents in an accident, so she lived on only two people with her sister. And she was seemed a character from her around people, so she was didn’t friends and she was lonely.
When Stitch began living with them, at first he broke various things, and he troubled them. However, he was lonely, so he caused trouble. At first Lilo, Nani and Stitch were in good with each other. They didn’t live together cause Stitch, so their family almost became apart.
However, they realized important about family, so they got over various problems. No matter though family is part, family was links each other, but family is happy always go together none the less.
Lilo didn’t have friends, so Nani gave Stitch for Lilo. They were in good with each other. Such as things happened, so they realized important about each other. Nani’s boyfriend also was getting along with them, so they became getting along more than before, and they got over such as things. It is important for us to friends. We can get over our difficulties if there are friends.
I believe that important to help each other when we are in trouble. There were a lot of such as things with them, but they helped each other. They were answer to such as things and they live together happily at the last.
Finally, we watched this movie, and we can learn about relations of family, friends and others are not easy to in good with each other, but very precious for us. In addition, we should help each other when there are worry, trouble and son to us. We were given to think that about family, friends and help each other are very important.

Essay 1-02b: Not my university life
I usually commute to university by the train and the bus everyday. I have a driver’s license, but I don’t commute by the car. I think that there are good points and bad points about commute to university by the car. Therefore I will write about commute to university by the car.
First of all, the car is very convenient, because you don’t need to care the time. If you commute to university by the train, the bus and so on, you have to need care the time and you have to adapt the time to act. If you commute by the car, you don’t need care the time, so you can act freely. When you like it, you can go to the various places. These is very good point.
However, there is bad point about commute to university by the car, because the car costs money. It costs gasoline charges first. Besides, there aren’t parking area in Kumamoto Gakuen University, so it costs the rate of the parking area, too. And sometimes when the car can’t park in the parking area. These are bad point about commute to university by the car.
There are these points about commute to university by the car, but there are many students commute by the car in Kumamoto Gakuen University. They think that such a thing, but there are many students think that the car is very convenient. Therefore, many students commute to university by the car.
I also think that the car is very convenient. I want to commute to university by the car everyday, but I don’t have much money, so I can’t commute by the car everyday. It is convenient for students to commute by the car. However, if we commute to university by the car, we have to think that these good points and bad points.
