Hello!
How are you? Today, let's begin writing about trends or opinions.
Look at the picture above. What is it? It's a tattoo machine - for making tattoos.
Tattoos have a negative image in Japan, but some young Japanese people feel they may be cool because many young people in other countries have them.
Activity
Here is a selection of pictures of some tattoos. Which ones do you like - or not like? How do you feel about tattoos? Do you have a negative image about them - or do you think they're cool and stylish?
Choose one (1) picture and write a quick paragraph in five (5) minutes about it. Write anything that comes to your mind when you look at it. Negative opinions are okay!

Good luck - and see you next time!
