Beowulf

I read The Old English epic Beowulf, which is a bilingual edition.  I have to read it for homework of the History of English Literature.  The Old English is hard to read.  It is next to impossible for me to read it, but I can sometimes find words that I can understand.  The example is 'oft'.  It is mean 'often'.  'oft' is near 'often', so I understand it.  Beowulf is interesting.  It was originally a epic sung by minstrels, so it was not written.  It was sung, so it has many rhyme.  It is written as a bilingual edition but translated word for word, so it is difficult to understand Japanese sentence.  When I read it, I adjust sentences to understand easily.  The setting of the story is laid in Denmark, and it is said that its composition is dated between the 8th and the 11th century.  There are the sentences about Cain and Abel.  They are the persons in the Bible, so I am surprised.  In the era when the people in Britain spoke the Old English, there were Christians.  Of course, I know that Jesus Christ was born in the Christian Era, but I can't image that Christ spoke the Old English.  It is interesting!

Nintendo Game!

 I bought a game!  It is Pocket-Monster-Black2.  I was recommended my students, who I teach on a cram school as a part time job.  Also, my friend recommended it to me.  So, I decided to buy it.  I bought it on last Friday.  On my way to home, I went to Tsutaya in downtown.  There were two kind of the newest Pocket-Monster game.  They are Black2 and White2.  I couldn't decide which I bought Black2 or White2, but finally, I decided to buy Black2. 
 When I play game, I often look the website that is written how to conquest the game.  However, I decided to play this game without looking it.  It is very fun!
 But... I thought that I made one mistake.  It is that it's about time to have to start to study, because some classes have final exams!  I have the final exam of the History of American Literature today.  Other's will come soon!  I should buy the game after I finished it...

Watching SPEC

On Saturday and Sunday, I didn't have a part-time job, so I was free!  I hadn't had free Saturday and Sunday for a month.  I watched the TV drama named SPEC, which was borrowing by my friend as a Blueray Disk.  It was very interesting and exciting!  The story is about police and criminal.  It listens like normal story, but the criminals are not normal.  They have special ability, such as "stopping time", "giving ills", "changing someone's memory", and any more.  They called "SPEC holder" in this drama.  Main characteres are very unique.  Toma Saya has very high intelligence, and eats much.  Sebumi Takeru is not smart but strong.  The two persons are principal characters in this story.  Also, others are unique.  They are very attractive.  I recommend you watch this drama!
