12/1 December

December has come!
Yesterday, November, was so warm and fine, but today it got cold suddenly. lol

When winter has come, some people start to say they are looking forward to seeing snow falling.
BUT I'M NEVER looking forward to.......!!
Because I have very little tolerance of the cold.
In fact, I was born and grew up in the north area of Japan. (Now I'm in Tokyo.)
In my hometown, we had a heavy snowfall in every winter.
Finally, however, I couldn't get used to the cold winters there..........
So, I'm fed up with cold weather and snowfalls.......!!

Winter is tough to beat for me......
BUT this winter I got a KOTATSU !!!!!
(Kotatsu is a small table with an electric heater underneath and covered by a quilt.)
As long as I sit under the kotatsu, I cannot be defeated by cold winter! I can win!

Thank you for coming!

I'm a college student in Japan.
This blog was created, stimulated by a certain college class I took in autumn of 2011.
Here is my previous blog I wrote for the class. (OLD BLOG)

I like to write in English, even though it isn't my mother language.
To maintain or more develop my English skills, I wanna try to keep blogging every day if possible.
It must be quite difficult for me to continue something each day, but I'll try.

I will include into the blog some words or phrases I read and learned in a book, "SNOOPY IS MY TEACHER! LET'S SPEAK ENGLISH."
It is based on the popular comics "PEANUTS," by Charles M. Schulz.
As an English text book, the editors comments on the dialogues between Charlie Brown and his friends.
There are many informal expression not familiar for me, but I'll try to use them in this blog as long as they make sense.

CHOMPx indicates the combination of a word in the book and the title of my favorite CD album.
"Chomp" is the word which appears first in this book. It describes the sound of Snoopy feeding.
This is similar to the title of the album, "THUMPx,"by my favorite musicians.
So I came upon this blog title. There is no deeper meaning any more.

Anyway, I wanna start the blog here!
Thank you for reading!
And feel free to leave any comments!
