When he putted on the mask, he gained power. He scared some people in the night. Next morning, Stanley realized what he did last night. He was afraid of his mask. And he threw it out of the window. But it returned to Stanley’s room.
  Stanley really wanted to meet Tina, so he decided to put on the mask again. Meanwhile Dorian’s men tried to rob money from the bank. But suddenly The Mask appeared and robbed all money and gone. The Mask went to the party and danced Tina. Dorian got angry about that. He quitted the party and shot The Mask. But The Mask didn’t hurt.
    The next morning, Tina came to Stanley’s bank again. She asked him about The Mask. He didn’t say the truth. He lied The Mask was his friend. Stanley made a plan that The Mask and Tina meet at the park. In the park, Stanley waited Tina. When Tina arrived at the park, she was surprised because there was Stanley not The Mask. They looked sun set together. Stanley said good-bye to Tina and hid bushes and transform The Mask. The Mask tried to dance with Tina again. But there were also the police men in the park. They noticed The Mask is Stanley and he robbed money from the bank. So they tried to catch The Mask. But The Mask moved really fast. So they couldn’t catch him.
Stanley took off The Mask. Suddenly he was called by someone. The person was Peggy. Peggy works writer in Newspaper Company. She watched the truth. She talked to Stanley in her company. But she was also hired by mafia’s boss, Dorian. Dorian took the mask and transformed The Mask. After that Dorian threw Stanley away in the road. The police found him and arrested.
The next day Tina came to jail to see Stanley. Now she knew who The Mask is. She talked Stanley and left the jail. After her left, Stanley heard her scream. When he looked her in the jail, Tina was escaping from Dorian. Stanley wanted to help her. So he decided to escape from jail. He called his smart dog Milo. Milo did good job. He took the key from the police man. Stanley opened door, threatened the another police man, got the car and went to night club to help Tina.
At the night club, Tina was tied by a pillar. And under her legs, there were some dynamites. Dorian was controlling the party. Stanley entered the party and hid. And he tried to help Tina. But he was founded by Dorian’s men. Dorian tried to kill Stanley. But Tina screamed and she said give her one last kiss. Dorian confused but he took off the mask and kissed her. Then Tina kicked the mask. The mask flew a while and Milo caught it. And he changed The Mask. But he saved his master, Stanley. Stanley took the mask and transform The Mask. He won Dorian and saved Tina.
Stanley got Tina’s love. In the bridge, Tina kissed Stanley and threw the mask away.
My opinion
Actually I have watched this move a long time ago. This time I watched this movie with English and English subtitle. Almost I could understand. The mask gives power that who really wants. When Stanley got the mask, he became who he wanted to be. But did he get everything he wants putting on mask? I don’t think so. He got Tina’s love without the mask. The mask helped Stanley to cheer up. In the last scene, he tried to help Tina without the mask. I thought the mask gave Stanley bravery.

The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus



Recently I'm crazy about emo music and some acoustic songs. This is The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus's song called "Your Guardian Angel". I found this song from my myspace friend's page. I like The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus's another song called "Face Down". But this song is also nice song. When I listened this song, I wanted to play this song. So I searched this song in Ultimate guitar. This is guitar tab site. There are so many tabs in this site. These tabs are provided by amateurs or pros or someone. Of course I could find "Your Guardian Angel" I picked high rate tab of that song. And I played this tab was hard for me. So I changed tab which is easier one. I could play this song using this tab.

My guitar skill is not enough though, I want to play some my favorite songs in front of audience. One of my plans in Spring break is playing guitar hard every day. Recently my brother, Hitoshi started to play bass guitar again. He plays some blink-182 songs. Blink-182 is my best favorite band, so some day I want to play blink songs with him.(195 words/ 14537 words)

Story Of The Year is coming to Fukuoka!!!! YEAH!!!


Do you know the band called Story Of The Year??? If you like The Used or some Emo bands, you will like them. Anyways they are coming to Fukuoka on March. Of course I will go their live show. In fact I have watched their live show in Minnesota. It was in warped tour. Each band could only play 30 minutes, but SOTY performed very aggressive and cool. I could see mosh-pit in their live show. I haven't seen before, so it was new experience. I sang along with many fans in warped tour. I have some favorite SOTY songs. They performed "Wake Up" and "Until The Day I Die" in warped tour. These were really good. But they didn't play Anthem Of Our Dying Day" and "Sidewalk". I think these were quiet songs, so it's not good for rock festival. That's why they didn't play. But this time is their live show. I mean its full length show. Perhaps they will play my favorite songs? I don't know... Anyways I really excited about going their live show again. I wanna rock!(182 words/14342 words)
