The classes I am taking this term

I want to major in Economics, so I am taking many economics classes. I am going to introduce the classes which I am taking this term.

Econometrics

Econometrics is "the application of mathematics and statistical methods to economic data" and described as the branch of economics "that aims to give empirical content to economic relations." In this class, we learn how to use "e-views". E-views is more useful that excel.

Introduction of Mathsematics to Economic

Math is good tool for solving economic problems. Every week, we are required to submit assignment. It is very hard. We need not attend the classes if we can get good score in assignment and test.

Japanese economics

This is English class. I like Prof. Yashiro's class very much. He has extensive knowledge and I have never felt that his class is boring.

International Law

I am really interested in international law, too. But this class is held in 1st period. So I seldom can attend this class. Interpretation of law is really difficult, so I have to attend the class!!!!!  

What is the most precious thing in my life?

The most precious thing in my life is, of course, my family.
Grandpa: of course he is my grandfather but we are really like the best friend. He often told me about old days like his life during world war 2. I like listening to his talk. We used to play sports together when I was small.
Grandma: I learned many things from her like sewing, cooking, stock trading. I loved to go shopping to buy my clothes with her.
Father: He is working for my family without any complain. I know it is hard to support this big family. I respect him as a father, also as one man.
Mother: She is my ideal mother. Although our family is very big, she make box lunches for all everyday. I loved to chat with her after coming back from school.
Rieko: I often go shopping and see movie with her. One of my favorite clothes was given by her as a present.
Mayuko: She and I went to same high school and she was more clever than me. She is really good at science and I respect her.
Kazuki: Though we do not talk much now, we were like good friends when we were small. He is working hard now as a public officer.
Yusuke: He is still 14, so really cute!! He is the idol of our family. Everyone gives him whatever he wants.

Book about Islam

As I said in my presentation, I visited Arabic countries. So I am really interested in Islam, I started reading some books related with Islam and Muslim.
This is the book that I have just finished reading.

This book was written by Akira Ikegami. Roughly speaking, he explains about Islam, Islamic fundamentalism, the problem between Israel and Arabic countries, the Gulf war and so on in this book.
I am sure that most Japanese have bad image of Islam. I think it is because Japanese do not know about Islam well and Muslims are unfamiliar people for Japanese. So I recommend that Japanese people read books like this to know Islam.
Before visiting middle east countries, I was not interested in any religion at all. But when I went there, I felt religion and daily life or politics were closely related more than Japanese expected. So, I am sure that the more we understand religion, the better we understand each person. 

Who am I?

I am going to introduce about myself. I am from Gifu city, so now I live alone very close to ICU.

My family
I have grandparents, parents, 2 sisters, 2 brothers and one dog!

Major
I want to major in ecoomics. First of all, I like math. Also I think economics is very important to understand all social system. Economics has many connections with daily life, world affairs and so one.
I am interested in Japanese economic system especially. Because Japan has finacial difficulties, I want to consider what Japanese government should do to solve the problem. In addtion, I want to consider labor problem for Japanese women.

Why did I decided to take this class?

I became an adult this month finally. I'm not a child anymore. It's time to stand on my own feet. But first of all, I have to look back over the past and reconsider my future plan. I think this class will give me the chance to do them. Also, when I was a freshman student, the teacher of ASP was Mark. The ASP class was really meaningful and my hesitation of speaking English was wiped away thanks to the class. That's why I decided to take Mark's class again.
About my writing... I don't like to write academic essays or papers. But I like to write in SNS, especially twitter because I don't have to think what to write seriously. I just write freely in twitter what I am thinking now, what was happened to me and so on. Sometimes writing frank my feelings in twitter makes me feel better.
