New country^0^ We are Presidents ^o^

I've written something about our Janam land^-^. Can you guess the origin of the name of our country? ^-^ Ja of Japan and Nam of Viet Nam^-^ We act in a body, VietNamese and Japanese! ^-^
The Janam land Zoological and Botanical Gardens
The Janam land Zoological and Botanical Gardens located on the center of Janam City (The capital of Janam land). Construction works of the Garden started in 1860 and the first stage was opened to the public in 1864.
Coming to the Janam land Zoological and Botanical Gardens, you must be surprised at many rare plants with singular shape and a large variety of animals that only live in our Janam land.
*This carnivorous plant’s name is “Ayaka”. The snap traps of “Ayaka” close rapidly when triggered to trap prey between two lobes. ( Ayaka and Tsushida are names of 2 members in our group^-^)













*And this is a carnivorous plant too. Its name is “Tsushida”. The leaf of a “Tsushida” bends in response to the trapping of an insect.














Here are some of the animals living in the Janam land Zoological and Botanical Gardens:
*Wolves are surrounding a bison. Their diet consists largely of other mammals.
















*These Emperor penguins show that teeth and claws are not necessary to be a carnivore. They feed on crustaceans, fish, squid, and other small marine life.

New group^-^

There are 5 people in our group when there are only 4 people in other groups. Its means that we'll have more creative ideas, much more wonderful time together, and much more chances to broaden our knowledge^-^
Today, we met at the school library from 10.30am to 12.00am. I showed everyone my manuscript of our country's natural resources and received many useful comments from my group. We discussed how our country would be, what would be its original points, what would attract tourists to go to our country...as if we were real government employees ^-^We all have to write manuscripts of our shares to show everyone in group when we meet again this Friday.

The rainy season in Japan!


Finally, the rainy season has come! It has been raining from 12nd. Everything seems to be composed than usual even the colour of the hydrangea which look sad with their cobalt blue. I was told that it will have been raining during 2 months. I don't like the humid air but there is no way to escape from such weather like that. So, have to bear and enjoy the full blossom of hydrangea.^-^

Have to rewrite again!


There are 11 questions in our questionnaire and we had shared them to 4 parts. I'll write the outline, the idea behind our survey, also the conclusion of question number 1, number 2. The conclusion of question number 3, 4, 5 is the share of Emily. Yooka will write the conclusion of question number 6, 7, 8 and the remaining is Lisa's share.

Yesterday, we met at the group study room of the school library to consult about each other's manuscript. We had thought that it wouldn't cost too much time and we would have the manuscript finished but finally, everything wasn't going very well. Yooka hadn't written any outlines and Lisa had given such specific numbers. Emily had her part-time job yesterday so she couldn't joy us at that time. So, i met her this morning to get her manuscript but she hadn't finished it yet. We had decided to practice for the presentation this Sunday so i asked my groupmembers to finish their manuscript by tomorrow night to have it checked again. We rely on Emily drawing the poster because Emily is very good at drawing. All group members in our group are all trying our best and we are looking forward to making presentation this Monday. I hope everything would go well. ^_^
