Essays: Favorite Places

Everyone have a favorite place. I also have some favorite places with memories.

First, I’m going to talk about the library of my high school. When I was a high school student, I often spended there during a recess. It wasn’t for read a book, and it was for meet with a librarian. She was very popular among students because she was companionable. I also liked her very much and I felt comfortable there. I went to meet her there with my friends after I graduated. I want to assemble there and talk with them again.
A country I love the most is Hawaii. I like warm weather and don’t like cold weather. In brief, I love the sun, blue sky, clear seas, breeze, tropical flowers, palm trees and nice people in Hawaii. I was enchanted there when I went for the first time. I want to by all means live there someday.

When I was a high school student, I often had a good time with my friends at Tsuboigawa Yuusuichi near my high school. We always talked there as long as our like. I love my friends. We also held sports festival there every year so I have many memories there.

One of Japanese cultures I like is kotatsu. Do you have a kotatsu? I have it in the living room in my house. I always warm myself at the kotatsu all the winter. When I was little, I sometimes got in it like a cat. Now I cannot it, but kotatsu is the one of my favorite places. I want to familiarize it to all over the world.

I sometimes walk on Shirakawa dry riverbed near my house. There are some people angling or walking with a dog. I like to walk watching them, the sky and the stream. I can get peaceful feeling there.

I love watching movies on DVD. I also like a movie theater very much, but I rarely go there because movie fee in Japan is too expensive. So, I like the rental video shop. Strange as it may sound, I can enjoy just by looking at the title of a lot of DVDs.

I often go to the cafe and have a lunch there. I really like to spend relaxing there. My favorite cafe is Saint Marc cafe. I especially like sitting on a soft fluffy chair in the back. I always feel comfortable there. However, I don't know other fashionable cafes in Kumamoto so much. Let me know if you know where it is.

My grandmother's house is in Kikuchi. I like there very much though there is a country. My grandmother lives there alone now since my grandfather passed away 10 years ago. I have a lot of memories there with them. We used to eat a snack at the sunlit veranda at 3 pm. My grandfather used to work on a farm and like Japanese confectionery and cigarette. I loved him. I'm sad he had passed away, but I'm happy my grandmother enjoys good health now.

We can hang tough even in hard times because we have some treasured memories. I think memories are a treasure of lifetime. When things got tough, go to your favorite place. It surely gives you love and courage.
