October 6th

I will talk about my school life for yesterday. This morning was too cold for me to get up. But I got up at almost 6:3o a.m. I don't know why I got up early this morning over all the time. So I could eat breakfast and I prepared slowly to go to school. I went to my school for taking yesterday's lessons.

The 1st class was Listening Ⅳ. The class of today was a little bit difficult but I could understand that I have to read a composition in English more speedy. I cooperated with friends of my group and solved some problems in the story.

Next, the 2nd class was Speaking Ⅳ. I had to say an opinion in the class. We learned that a point of similarity between John F. Kennedy and Abraham Lincoln. They had so many similarity, so I was very suprised. From now, I would like to introduce the similarity for them.

Abraham Lincoln became the 16th President of the United States in 1861, just 14 years after he was first elected to the House of Representative. On Friday, April 14, 1865, he and his wife planned to go to see a play at Ford's \theater. His secretary, named Kennedy, advised him not to go, but he went anyway and was shot in the head as he watched the play. He died the next day, and Vice- president Andrew Johnson became President. The man who shot Lincoln, John Wilkes Booth, shot him in a theater. He escaped to a warehouse, but was shot, or killed himself, before being captured.

John Fitzgerand Kennedy became the 35th President of the United States in 1961, just 14 years after he was elected to the House of Representatives. In November 1963, he and his wife planned to go to Dallas. His secretary, named Lincoln, advised him not to go, but he went anyway, and was shot in the head on Friday, November 22, 1963, as he drove through Dallas in a Ford Lincoln Continental. He died almost immediately, and Vice- president Lyndon Johnson became President. The man who prebably shot Kennedy, Lee Harvey Oswald, shot him from a warehouse and escaped to a theater. He died before he came to trial.

What do you think about the history of Abraham Lincoln and John F. Kennedy? I was unbelievable so much when I red the history on first time. But I thought that they couldnot be pretty great men, and people probably supported them overwhelming.

By the way, after the classes, I worked to prepare for a school festival, named Takumasai, at KGU. Yesterday, we made a lot of walls for a exhibition. We also drived in a nail, and repeated the working. It was a little hard for me but I enjoyed the working with my circlemate. After the working, we took a break time and I ate cookie, ice and odenn. That was pretty yammy! And we worked again. Finally, I turned back my house and I slept soon.
