Iijima self-introduction

Date: Thu, 26 Sep 1996
From: Daisuke Miyata
To: yshinbo@tiu.ac.jp

Hello, nice to meet you Yoko. How are you doing? I'm good.
Anyway, you know, I'm your e-mail partner. Let's send e-mail each other. Today, I'm gonna introduce myself here.
My name is Daisuke Miyata, I'm from Ueda city Nagano,Japan. Have
you ever been to Nagano? Oh....I'm afraid if you live in Nagano, but probablly not. Nagano is a very beautiful place in Japan, isn't it? I love my home town. Now, I'm sophomore of TIUA students. When I was TIU student, I specialized commercial science. Which do you go to university, 1st campas or 2nd campas? I think that 1st campas is very very good, but a little bit crowbed. Don't you think so? Have you ever been to 13 building? I've never been to there because it was built after I've gone to America,TIUA. I'm looking forward to visiting there as soon as possible. When I was TIU student, I lived in KASUMIGASEKI near KASUMI driving school. So I could go to university so fast. You like a music, right? What kind of music do you listen? I like
Japanese song, but when I came TUIA, I became to like American music. Do you know The Stone Roses? It's cool. in addition, I like Nirveana. Do you also know this? This is a best group of songer. Why don't you listen these music. Moreover, of couse I like Japanese song. I love Karaoke. I used to go to Karaoke. I sing any songs. However, I'm in TIUA, so I don't know newly Japanese song well. If possible, could you tell me newly Japanese songs? It's very helpful when I came back to Japan and went to Karaoke. These days, I'm collecting Nike shoes. I've already had 12 shoes of only Nike shoes. If buy a Nike shoes in US, you could get Nike shies
half as much as price. It's true. So I have a lot of shoes.
Finally, do you consider to come to TIUA next year? I recommend
you to come TIUA, if you are interested in English. If you come here, I can experience good memories!!!
Alright, thank you for your reading long sentense. Nice to meet you.

Miyata correction of Shinbo self-introduction

Hello, how are you doing, Yoko? I'm alright, thanks. Anyhow,thank you for your e-mail to me. Have you ever been to Nagano? That's cool. I found that there were a lot of nice places, right? I love Nagano, you know, I have a lot of reasons I love there. Oh, yes yes, Heita is one of my friends. I think he is kind of cool and kind, but I am not sure now. Is he a kind to you? Alright, I hope so. You know, I love to collect Nike shoes. I bought one one week ago. It's very nice.

By the way, I'd like to comment to your e-mail, for instance, your grammar mistakes, about sentence and so on. Alright, at first let's watch your e-mail to me here.

Hello,nice to meet you Disuke.Thank you for your E-mail.
I' m from Nrima Tokyo.I 'm freshman.
You said that you re from Ueda city Nagano,but I was in Nagano city by yesterday.
I was under the camp of roller hockey' s club.

by the way,do you remember Heita Yoshioka isn' t he?
He said ,he want your E-mail,and NAKE shoes.I want it too.

well I' ll say good-bye.Thank you.

First of all, you should use spell-checker. Do you know how to use it? If you don't know how to use it, ask to Prof. Duell or your friends who know that well.

Let's watch first sentence.

> Hello,nice to meet you Daisuke.Thank you for your E-mail.

Yes, that's O.K. However, why don't you use nore space key.

> Hello, nice to meet you, Daisuke. Thank you for your e-mail.

It is easy to see, right? Let's see second sentence.

> I 'm from Nrima Tokyo.I' m freshman".

I cannot understand "Nrima". You mean, "Nerima"? Probably you wanted to write Nerima. Be careful, please.
I'm from Nerima, Tokyo. I'm freshman in TIU.

Next,
> "You said that you re from Ueda city Nagano,but I was in Nagano city by yesterday".

I'd like to change some words,
> You said to me that you're from Ueda city, Nagano. I had been to Nagano until yesterday.

Next,
> I was under the camp of roller hockey' s club. there was so nice place.

Well, this is good sentence. However, when you write beginning of sentence, it should be " Capital ".

> I went to a camp of the Roller Hockey club.
> There was so nice place.

Did you think so? You should write "I thought that there was so nice place".

next,
> by the way,do you remember Heita Yoshioka?
> He is my team mate. He is so sweet man,isn' the?
> He said ,he want your E-mail,and NAKE shoes.I want it too.

Beginning of sentence, "Capital". Is he so sweet man? You mean you love him? If we use "Sweet", it's kind of strange. Moreover, I have a question. What is NAKE? I wrote to you correctly, it's Nike, man! I'd like to write like this,

By the way, do you remember Heita Yoshioka?
He is one of the Roller Hockey club, so I know him well. And I like him because he is so kind to us. He said to you that he'd like to receive your e-mail and he'd like a Nike shoes because he also like Nike shoes. I want it, too.

Finally,

> well I' ll say good-bye.Thank you.

Well, thank you for your reading my e-mail. See you next time.

That's is cool. Don't you think so? You can do it!!!!!!!

Well, that's all comments I want to say to you. Thank you for your attention. Just do it, NIKE.

See you next e-mail.
