English Training

My TOEIC training class finished last Friday.
I found some English training courses in my working company.
Our company has various English training courses.
Of course, we have the conversation course.
But, This conversation course do not open the class in a small office.
If I want to entry to this course, I have to find 3 people of same English level in this office.
But, the average of TOEIC score of our group is 700 points or more.
This average point of my group is always calculated excluding me.
So, I cannot find the person at the same level in this office.
And, my company has the course of e-Learning.
This course has 3 courses. (over all course, TOEIC training course and writing course.)
All employees in our company can entry these courses.
But, I cannot entory these courses.
Because I do not have a personal computer in my house.
Maybe, I am unlucky girl.

Motomenai

I read "Motomenai " last night. Motomenai means "Do not desire".
This book was written by Shouzou Kashima, published by Shougakukan.
I borrowed this book from my English classmate.
(Thank you Kana!!)
This book will tell us about people can become happy by not wanting.
But..... I desire to speak English very well.

150cm life

This is my favorite book. The title is "150cm life". I bought this book in China. This book was written by Chinese. But, original book was written by Japanese woman. Her name is Naoko Takagi. She is an illustrator.

Her height is 150cm. As for this book, her daily life is written. She has a lot of problems in her life, because her height is low.

This book is a very popular in Japan book according to a wraparound band of this book. And, this book sold more than one million in Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan. I did not know this book until buying it in China. This book was 20 RMB.It is about 300 yen. Very cheeeeeap!!!

NANA

I bought this Manga in Narita Airport.
Manga's title is NANA. It is wtitten story & art by Ai Yazawa.
This is the story of two 20-year old women who share the same name. Even though they come from completely different backgrounds, they somehow meet and become best friends.
I always have a long free time in the airport when I going to on business trip.
My boss & coworker usually read some books. I am very weak in reading the book..... But... my boss said me reading the Manga as same as playing.
I think that the Manga is useful for my study for English.
So, I will read quietly on business trip.
