Book review2-5

I read a book called Within High Fences. Nancy was a main character in the story. She lived with Tom in a big house. Tom was very rich so he bought everything to her. Tom didn't like she did something that he didn't want. Nancy worked in a center for asylum seekers as a guard. At work, she met George. George was a kind man and had a beautiful smile. She soon started to like him. She found her true love and realized that she didn't love Tom. However it was difficult to love George because he was an asylum seeker and Nancy was a guard. She couldn't stop her love to George. George also liked Nancy. Nancy decided to leave Tom to be with George. She against the rule and gave him her phone number. She moved in a small flat. Her best friend, Harriet, wanted Nancy to come to her wedding in Scotland so she went there. When she came back to her flat, she found that her room was very messy. Some of her things were not there. Some one stole her CD player, her small television, her gold watch and her passport. She called George but he didn't answer. Nancy felt very bad and sad. Police tried to find him. One day, Harriet invited Nancy to her party. Tom was there and he asked Nancy to go to their old house. She was too ill to say no. In the sitting room, she found her gold watch! Tom took her things! She was very angry. It was not George but Tom! At last, Nancy could find George! She was very happy to see George again!

I enjoyed the story very much. I thought it was very great to be with the person you really love. I think it is difficult to tell if the person is your true love or not. Nancy had some problems but she could get through everything. To love someone is very wonderful thing. (358words)

Baby

My high school friend, Sachi, has born a baby in last December. Yesterday, I visited Sachi with my friends, Miho and Yukari, to see her baby.
At first, I picked up Miho and Yukari at Tamana Station. We went to a store to buy present. We were very excited to choose baby clothes. After that, we went to Joyfull to eat lunch. We stayed for there about two hours. It was very fun to talk with my best friends! We talked about many things.
Sachi lives in Yamaga. We drove there by my car. I have not seen her about a year and a half so I was very happy to see her!
Sachi's baby was a boy. His name is Yuma. We called him Yumacchi. He was very cute! I was very glad when I held him in my arms. I am looking forward to his growth.
