Original

When I was about 10 years old I saw a Japanese movie named Midnight Ring – I don’t know how actually how I feel these things at first I just oh it’s very fresh, different between the cartoons – very interesting – I saw this movie with my father. My parents like watching this kind of movie. At the beginning of the movie, it’s very normal I think oh its OK but the end of the movie a ghost comes out of the TV – I fear it – so begin of this movie I couldn’t stay alone in the room, I always follow with my parents where they stay.  But actually I like to watch this kiind of movie but my mother always say you fear it but yo usually watch this kind of movie.
