I went to library in my home town to borrow some books yesterday. The library is very small, so it doesn’t have many books. I want to a big library in our town. I always feel envious of other town with the big library.
I borrowed two books from the library. one of the books is written about Japanese chess “Shougi”. This board game is very fun. so I play the game with my brother almost everyday. If you want to know Shougi, you should watch a Japanese TV drama “81 diver”. It is very interesting program.
I introduce my hobby today.
I and my brother are hooked on Japanese chess; Japanese name is “Shogi”. This game is very interesting, so I almost play the game with my brother everyday. This picture is the game on yesterday. I won the game yesterday. But we are not good player. We are beginner, so we can’t use many techniques. I’m planning to play shogi with my brother at night.
