Pretend you are a nobleman or noblewoman living in Heian-kyo during the 10th century. You are keeping a diary of your impressions of daily life during that time. Use your Reading Notes (chapter 21) to create a diary entry that describe one day in your life while visiting the emperor's court.
Your diary entry should
• Indicate the date
• Be written in the first person. Use "I, me, we and us"
• Have information about at least six aspects of your life. These might include a description of your capital city or your house, the leaders of your government, your rank, what is considered beautiful or fashionable, what is considered bad manners, games you enjoy, art and literature of the day, or your attitude toward the poor.
• Include at least one tanka poem that expresses your feeling
• Have at least three colorful pictures to illustrate key idea
Add creative touches to make your diary entry personal. After completing a draft for review by your teacher (Wednesday 2/11) type or write the final copy in ink. It should be free of grammatical and spelling errors and be approximately three handwritten pages (500-700 words long).
