Local Magazine!!

I went back to my hometown,Tokushima last weekend. I stayed there for 3 days. The first day, I caught a cold so I was in bed. Also, since the typhoon attacked Tokushima, I couldn't go out. It went by Tokushima during the night and the next day, Sunday, was very sunny. I couldn't believe the typhoon came to Tokushima the day before. I went out Sunday with my driving. My driving was dangerous but it was good practice. The last day, Monday, I spent time being relaxed. Before I left Tokushima, I bought the local magazine which is for young. It is called "Town Tokushima" and everyone calls it "Tautoku". We have 2 kinds of local magazines and another is "Awawa". These are written about fashion, high school life, food and so on. They are sold only in Tokushima so only Tokushima people appear on them. They are released every months and they have a great deal of information. Let me introduce them.

This picture is the cover of magazine. About the festival in Tokushima, camp site and food are picked up this month. Other subject are sea bathing, fire works and high school girls.

This article is about menu. There are about 30 kinds of food in the magazine. They are the menu that chefs recommend.

This is the fashion grand prix. The staffs ask people who show good taste in clothes. The

reader can vote a person who is the best.

This is about the sports competition of high school. Many kinds of sports are picked up. When I was third grade in high school, my basketball team appeared on it.

High school girls are picked up in this article. It called "Miss uniform grand prix". The staffs take the picture of different kinds of high school girls in their uniform. There are boys' version. Any high school students has the chance to appear on "Tautoku" if they meet the stuffs fortunately. The reader vote them and finally the number one girl or boy is chosen.

New picture of Cookie!!

My mother sent me this picture. Look at him!! Do you notice the change happened to him? That is his bristle. It became shorter. She cut it because he has long bristle and he feels very hot. He looks different kind of dog. Every time I look at this picture, I can't help laughing but he is very cute.

I got the ticket of basketball game, Asia cup. I called the ticket center right after the tickets were released but the connection was not made so I ran to the convenience store to buy it. I could get it and it cost 4200 yen but it is day ticket so I can watch 6 games in a day. I'm looking forward to see them.

I got another ticket of concert. Every summer, Otsuka pharmacy hold a summer concert of famous singers. About 6 groups are invited for that event every year. BENNIE K, which is my favorite singers, came to the event last summer!! This year, 4 groups will be invited. They are Ayaka, mihimaru GT, Otsuka Ai and Chattomonchi. The concert is free so a lot of people come to see it every year. Since it is held outside, it's very hot, and it is held in the middle of August. During the concert, I am beside myself with excitement.

Okonomiyaki

I had the practice of basketball July 22th. After practice, some of my teammate went to have dinner. We ate Okonomiyaki. I ate it for the first time after coming Osaka. There were some Osaka people there so I was taught how to make nice Okonomiyaki. I couldn't make it so well. Boys compared each other's Okonomiyaki and talked which is the best. The below picture is I took then.

Which is the best do you think? Back on the left side is Akinori's okonomiyaki. All of them look very delicious. It was a fun dinner.
