Shofusai and Spring break

2weeks ado, we had spring reak and before that, we had Shofusai in this keio school. Today I wanna talk about shofusai and what I did in this spring break.



One day before the shofusai, we had preparation day. So we didn't have classes, but we had to come as usual and prepare for shofusai. First, I put the picture on to the outside wall. That picture which we putted outside is drawn by Tsukiko, my roommate. To put on the picture first we sticked many tapes to wall. We had to use chair to stick tapes to high place.



Then We had to prepare the inside. We had to put on two more paints to wall for pictures. Boys were making guns with chopsticks. After putting the pictures to wall, I had to make things for hooping game. We went to art room for color paper and we made colorful stickes for hooping game.



That day, we had "Zenyasai" afternoon. It is event which we have before shofusai. It was very fun

Yui Aragaki



The Girl in this picture is Yui Aragaki, my favorite Japanese model. She also sings and I love her song. She is 20years old right now. Because of her fashion sense and logical personality, she gained a large fanbase in and out of Japan. Her beauty, particularly her smile, is well-regarded in her home country. She is also considered as one of Japan's local celebrities who possess beautiful faces

She has height of 168cm. I'm 165cm, therefore she is bigger than me. She has long hair light now, and her hair is mostly black hair, but she sometimes die her hair for her dramas and movies. She is from Naha, Okinawa.

After seeing an audition notice for the junior fashion magazine nicola, Yui's sister sent in Yui's profile to the publishers and she auditioned, winning its Grand Prix award. As soon as she won, she became a nicomo, a term used to refer to the models of the said magazine.

As soon as she became to nicomo, her nick name is chosen. Her nick name is "Gakky" taken from "yui araGAKI". She is still called as Gakky even though she graduated nicomo.

I first saw her in drama, 'Dragon Zakura'. Her hair was light brown and skin was blacker than usual. So I didn't realize that it was Yui when I first saw her. However, I saw the commercial of shampoo, PANTENE, and since I saw that commercial, I like her. So I searched about her in computer and realized that girl, who was in "Dragon Zakura" with a brown hair and lack skin, was Yui Aragaki.

Since then, I love Gakky. She has really beautiful long black hair. So she is used as model of commercial of shampoo. I also watched her drama, " Papa to Musume no 7kakan". It means the "Father and Daughter's 7days". There were Daddy and Daughter in Tokyo. They were very normal family. However, one day, Daddy and Daughter ride on train together and accident happened. When they woke up in hospital, there body was changed! So Daughter was using father's body and going to company every day , and Father was using Daughter's body and go to school. There were many problems between them, but they all clear those problems and Went back to there own body finally. It was very fun drama.

She also acted on movie called" Koizora". I think every highschool and middle school girl in Japan knows this movie. It was Book at first, but it became movie acted by Haruma Miura and Yui Aragaki. I first cried a lot by reading book and i cried in movie again. It is very very sad story.

Ilike Gakky from now on!
