Uniforms vs. Clothing of own choice

Some high schools require students to wear uniforms. Other allow students to wear clothing of their own choice.

I think wearing uniforms is better for students than waring clothing of their own choice.
First, students can feel peer-pressure and be burdened with the decision of what to wear to school.  Most of people want to be shown nice. But it needs to spend some money. For example, I used to ask my parents to buy clothes so I wouldn't feel like an outcast.

Second, students can concentrate on their studies better and not spend time thinking about what they should wear uniforms because I did not have to decide what to wear every morning. These days, high school students have a lot to do. Having a class in school, taking a class after school at other institute, having a test and test.. that means they have no time to do something without study. Wearing uniforms can save their time.

For these reasons, I think that wearing uniforms is better for students than waring clothing of their own choice.

It was very long day. I never forget this day. I was a elementary school student as fifth grade. I'm a leader of the class and I have to lead others. One day, some friends and I decided to go to a theme park in holiday. But I had a problem that I had fear of heights. In fact, I did not want to go there. But I can't stop my friends. Finally everyone agree to go to the theme park without me.

The day was coming, on the other hand I had looked forward to the day. That's because a girl who was my secret love. I thought it can be a great chance to get along with her. I decided to endure all fears when I take rides.

It was the day. We met early in the morning and we took rides and had a good time. I was okay because a ride which I felt very scary was under repair. We had nice lunch and I could have a talk with her several times. It was getting dark, we were tired and made a decision to go back home. Suddenly, one of my friend said to us that a ride was working. The ride was the ride that I did not want to take. I had to make a decision and I could see a girl who was my secret love. I took the ride with loud shouting and I was totally exhausted. I made it and I was so proud of me.

After the holiday, a message was on my school desk. I read it and I surprised. That's because the massage was from her!

Kyoto Trip, JAN 2011

It was very quiet morning. Pour raining just stopped few minutes ago. I can't hear not only traffic sounds but also foot steps. It was 2nd morning that my Japan trip in Kyoto. I got up quite early to hurry to go to Kyoto. My hotel was in Osaka and It took an hour to Kyoto by the train. When I made first step on Arashiyama(Kyoto), I thought it would be very crowded there but I can't hardly see people. I assumed that's because I got there so early. In spite of it was winter day, I didn't feel it was cold. It was extremely nice day to go around somewhere. Beside, I could smell fragrance of nature. Kyoto has a lot of nice places to go and you can go easily with bus. The Kyoto bus system is really comfortable to go a lot of places. If you have a day free bus ticket, you can go easily all spot with buses. My best spot in Kyoto was Kinkakuji(金閣寺-금각사). It was so gorgeous temple that was the building with gold skin. It was totally beautiful. (You can see the top of the picture.)  There were so many place to have good foods. I can remember a dinner in Kyoto that was curry rice with raw egg. It was very famous menu and I ate whole thing. It was really good. During the trip in Kyoto, I was happy. I felt fine. Because people was really kind. When I was lost my way, people guided me to place that I want to go. I think that I never forget my first trip alone in Kyoto.
