My community life is a club in university. My club is "Lacrosse". Our university clubs consist of P.E. committee, culture community, a cheering party and a cheerleading, the welfare of the people committee, circle alliance secretariat, Gakusho society and the evening school council.

Then we went to Mt. Kimpo, Aso, Tamana, in a river, in a sea, a trip, see illuminations and eat dinner. Others, we did BBQ, fireworks, game taking pictures. We are going to do things that we have never done and go the places that we have never been.

Purposes which I do club active are for exchange several grades and department, living a full university life, learning many things. In fact, entering this club, we learned how to bring the club together, to understand member’s situations, the respect due to theirs superiors and other many things from elder person.

Essay 2-02: I lov Takema ~ Favorite Place

My favorite place is Takema ravine.　There is in Yamaga and have 10 lodges and 18 tents. I first went there with friends of Lacrosse last summer vacation and also went there this summer vacation. I like the place because we can swim in the river, enjoy in a lodge and a tent, make and eat meals together and rent cheaply.

Next, I introduce good points about Takema ravine.Takema ravine is place encircled by the trees. We enjoyed the wonderful natural view of the ravine. There is the river and we can do fishing. A feeling of the night and the noon change completely. We can breathe fresh air and feel relaxed because there is in a mountain. Then the river flows and there are many lodges and tents at the upper. The river is very cold but we swim in the river and put a watermelon, too. The river has many natural slides and we slide and enjoy the river. We're carried because the current of the river is strong. Also, we can use a roomy lodge which has upstairs rooms, an air ‐ conditioning, a shower room and a kitchen. We spent comfortable time. Many families do BBQ in both sides of the river. We played with many children. The children were horsing around. They were very pretty. At night, we do BBQ at a veranda. At first, we make a rice ball, build a fire, cut many vegetables and meat. I found that meal which eat together is very delicious. We can see many stars during the night. We were impressed by watching a meteor stream last year. We were out and watched
these between the trees with stretching ourselves out on earth. We couldn't watch these this year but we could watch many stars. Takema ravine can enjoy from children to adult, so I think that this place is popular. Children swim in the river and adults drink with BBQ. We will be able to spend good time. I'm sure that they will add to one of their good memories. We can borrow tableware and so on in Takema ravine. So, we can decrease our luggages. We enjoy swimming in the river, talking in the lodge and tent, doing BBQ, watching stars and so on. It all happened in an instant because I had good days. There is a hot spring at the short way place.

I think you will spend wonderful days because you can feel nature and relax. Then it's a good experience for our to do BBQ and cook our own meals. Please go there by all means. I'm sure that you will like outdoor.
