Ogutchi
	My nickname is "Ogutchi." My hobby is soccer and I practice from 4:30 to 6:00 p.m. every week on Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday. Our team name is Ogisho Soccer Club. I like grilled meat and, I don’t like umeboshi.*1 My future dream is to be a soccer player or a carpenter. I’d like to become a carpenter because I like wood and handicrafts. The soccer player I admire most is Nakamura Shunsuke.*2
	*1 A type of pickle made by marinating ume [plum] and shiso [perilla] in salt. Considered a health food, it has anti-bacterial properties and is an indispensable part of bento. Because of its strong sourness, though, there are even some Japanese who do not like it. *2 A professional soccer player currently playing for the Italian professional soccer team, Reggina.
