Typing July 18th
There are many universities in Kumamoto. The biggest ones are Sojo University, Kumamoto Gakuen University, and Kumamoto University. Kumamoto Gakuen University has about 7000 students, and Kumamoto University has even more.
Most of the universities are in a fairly central location. KGU is near the Prefectural Theatre, and Kumamoto University is across the river from there. From there it is a short trip to Kyushu Tokai University. (67 words)

The test is a test of your work through the semester, your preparation, and your speed at using the Blogger software, more than a pure writing test.

End of semester (BE 3)
The end of the semester is approaching. As you are preparing, keep these targets in mind:
- at least 42 posts
- a sidebar, with LibraryThing, Labels, Archives, and Links
- some links and some photos in your posts (remember to add labels "links" and "photos")
What movies have you seen this year?
2007 is more than half over. What movies have you seen this year, and what ones do you think were good? I enjoyed several movies this year, but perhaps my favorite one was Marie Antoinette. You can see my movie posts collected here.
I also enjoyed Spiderman 3. But that movie starred Kirsten Dunst, just like Marie Antoinette, so I'd better not mention it.
Test (BE3)
Chuntaro is worried about the test. In the test, you will write a WEI post. I will show you how to do it next week. An important skill is linking, which we are learning this week.
Lemon Cranberry Cheesecake

The other day, my family took me to BaskinRobbins Ice Cream on East Bypass. It was a little late but it was to celebrate Father's Day. Pekyo likes Cookies & Cream, but I tried Lemon Cranberry Cheesecake. It was delicious!
