Lazy Lazy Lazy

2012-01-23T02:15:00.002+09:00

After left my job, I'm really lazy... D: But I cannot stop being lazy.

Genius

2012-01-17T11:50:00.005+09:00

I met a guy who is a member of Mensa (I didn't know what Mensa is.) last night on the internet. I have never met a real genius in my life... He broadcasted and talked about the difficult things with another guy who has a high IQ (maybe). I didn't understand what they talked about at all, but I think I saw genius' thoughts.

He said "I have never been defeated in my life for 25 years even though you think it would be mean." Yes, it was a little bit mean to me. lol But I thought he is still 25 and he lives as a genius, so he just didn't meet with the greatest difficulty imaginable yet luckily. He continued "Maybe I was in dull life. so I think I have to break out of dull life to work as a member of society. Because life is no bed of roses." He is really clever I thought. Maybe he is a fortunate person, and he is a positive person. In other words, he was in dull life. Because he is hopping he changes himself. I wish I could notice I shouldn't keep a lazy life. If I could do it, my life was different...?

But sometimes, I felt he became a negative by his words. He uses very polite Japanese, and he showed modest behavior. That's why I mihgt have felt like that, but...like insecure or lonely? I'm not sure because this is just my guess. But anyways, he has a lot of possibilities in his life. I thought I wanna root for him on his side.

(Aww.. I fell asleep for 10 or 20 mins while writing this blog. lol)

Speaking

2012-01-16T19:11:00.004+09:00

I got a Skype call just now. A guy who called me is from Sri Lanka. Of course I told him "I cannot speak English, but maybe writing is better." He gave me his understanding, and started chatting. But he called again in a couple of mins ago. D: I thought he should know how poor my speaking skills is. lol Therefore I spoke too much in Katakana English. Then, he said "Type it. Your writing is good." I told him so first though. LOL

He couldn't understand my English, but I really think I like speaking in English with foreigners so much. Cause I always feel it's fun! :)

English Day

2012-01-14T18:28:00.006+09:00

I have two English teacher now. First teacher is from America, and he teaches me English on Skype. And next teacher is from Canada, and he teaches me English at Starbucks.

Today, I have two lessons. And I already took Starbucks lesson.
It was great! Cause he speaks slowly, I could understand what he says. :)
Actually I worried about him a little bit because I was really happy to finding a teacher in Osaka, but almost all my friends said I should be worry of him because I don't know anything about him.

Therefore I asked another friend who teaches English at cafe like Starbucks teacher. Why a Starbucks teacher accepted my offer. (I met him at Starbucks last night, and I asked him he can be my English teacher.) The cost of lesson is normal or not. What the usual thing about tutors that teaches English at the cafe is. I don't need to register to an English company if he works for them.
He answered me about all those. Plus he told me I should ask him that usually the first lesson should be half price as the trial lesson.

So, I asked a Starbucks teacher before we started a first lesson, then he accepted about a trial lesson. Therefore I could taking a trial lesson for 30 mins. But I really worried I might rude for him.... After around 40 mins, I reserved next lesson, and I left from Starbucks. I will record what I learned today on "English Study Tab @Starbucks."

At last, I knew about him a little bit by conversations, and I felt relief. He works for University and an English school. And teaching English at the cafe is his private job. Sensei, korekara mo yoroshiku onegai shimasu! :)

Btw, I have a Skype lesson in 4 hours. I will do my best~ :D

WOW!!!!!!!!

2012-01-13T21:13:00.003+09:00

I skipped my work today, and went to Karaoke alone for 6 hours. xD
And after that, I found a perfect boy! LOL It is been years since I have seen like that boy. I am really excited. Hahaha.
Then, I went to Starbucks, and opened my netbook. Soon, a foreign ikemen guy (means good looking guy) sat down next to me. Yes, I was happy. :P I was talking with internet friends, and I told them "Ikemen sit down next to me." Then, my friends wanted me to talk to Ikemen. Of course they meant flirt. How come? I'm a shy (maybe), I cannot do like that acting. But I noticed he was seeing something that was written in Japanese, I was sure he is an English teacher. So, I finally made up my mind and talked to him. Because I could take an English class easily (I mean I don't want to pay too much cost for major English schools.)

YES, I GUESSED RIGHT! XD　He teaches English in the cafe. YAY. I can take an English class anytime when I have time! :) And then, we exchanged our mobile e-mail addresses, I went back to my home.

What I said for the first time is "Hello...? Eigo no sensei desu ka? (mixed English/Japanese.)" ...GEEK! lol But when we talked a little bit, he gave me a happy words; "Your English is good." GYAAA URESHIII :D

I'm going to take a class 4 times per a month. Ahh I'm hoping my English improve soon! Hahaha.. I know it's avarice. :P

English Grammar

2012-01-10T11:47:00.005+09:00

Today, I was posted like this thing on FB "Sometimes, I checked the sentences by a translator that I made before I posted. But, I'm trying to post every sentences even if it's wrong without a translator. But, someone said that he can understand what I want to say though English grammar's wrong. I'm so lazy, and it maybe late. But, I think It's a good timing now. :)"

What I posted is "GYA! Pigg changed the approval method! I have to use mobilemail to making new one, too, but I already used it. I mean SO SORRY. "

And then, I have tried to correcting them. "The approval method changed! I have to use mobile mail to making a new one, not only PC'. so, I'm already using mine, I cannot help you to get ameG. So sorry."

I know you don't understand what I was talking about, but I just mentioed about my WRONG grammar.

Actually, I found my poor English improved a little bit when I compared my old blogs (of course I know it's overstimating), but my English is still bad. Therefore I went to a book store, and bought an English grammar book. Hm.. I will do my best anyways.

You've Got A Friend - 1

2011-12-20T22:54:00.007+09:00

Yesterday, I started English listening lesson with Carole King's song.
>> 1: You've Got A Friend - Carol King / *Step1 started in December 19, 2011

I like this song since Ken Hirai sang, and I think I already listened this song around 300 times. Therefore I tried listening test. But actually I have never pay attention to the lyrics....Ahhh HARD. :(

When you down, and troubled
And you need to mind care
And nothing, nothing is going right
Close your eyes, and think of me
And soon I will be there
To bright up even your darkest night

You just call about my name
And you know where've I am
I'll call running to see you again

Winter, Spring, Summer, Fall
All you have to do is call
And be there you've got a friend

If the sky above you
Close door and full of darks
And I allow not swing begins to blow

Keep your head together
And call my name I around
Soon you hear me knocking that your door

You just call about my name
And you know where've I am
I'll call running running to see you again

Winter, Spring, Summer, Fall
All you have to do is call
And be there yes I will

Now any could you know that
you've got a friend
When people can be, so called
Then hear you yes I'm desert you
And take your sorry to listen
And but don't you listen

You just call about my name
And you know where've I am
I'll call running running to see you again

Winter, Spring, Summer, Fall
All you have to do is call
And be there yes I will
You've got a friend

You've got a friend

Any could you know
You've got a friend....

*Red marks are the words that I couldn't understand.
*I cannot check my answer is correct or not yet. Because I have to listen this song more and more.

2011-12-20T21:14:00.005+09:00

My mobile phone is Docomo's, and it can watch some American Dramas by BeeTV. And today, I started watching "Desperate Housewives." BeeTV still has only season1 - episode 10 though, I'm addicted of it enough. :)

So, I like Susan's bf Mike! xD Especially, his stubbly face is sooooo sexy. lol I'm going to watch its season2 during winter holiday. ( I only have two days' holiday though lol)

Btw, common phrase in this drama is "We need to talk." About this, I used "I have to say" or "I have something to tell you." But I will use "We need to talk" from today.

Do you know him? He is a German Youtuber. He likes Ken Hirai, sing his songs. (I blogged about him in December 8, 2008. Check it out!) At that time, he found my blog, and we became friends. And now, he appeared on Japanese TV show!!! How cool!!!ヾ(*´∀｀*)ﾉ

Btw,his singing skill in Japanese is obviously progressing (I'm not sure if it's my place to say this though :P).
But compared to it, how is my English without speaking and listening? T___T I hope my English also is progressing...☆

English

2011-12-04T17:30:00.005+09:00

Well, I was thinking of my English listening and speaking skills. I don't think I can improve it without the way to taking English class. But there are a lot of people who study English by oneself and can speak fluently, right? English class is very expensive, and I don't have free time much to go to the class. Therefore I somehow wanna improve my English skills by myself.

Yesterday, I talked with American friend. And he told me if I wanna improve my English listening and speaking skills, I just copy one person's way to speaking. It was fresh sensitivity. Because I always ask about it to English speakers and Japanese people who study English, but no one said like that.

Watching English movies and dramas is good way to copy. But they speak too fast... And it can't beat one guy. About this one guy, he was a friend, but I can't talk to him anymore because he got mad at me. :P But his voice and speed was very good to listening. Actually I missed a lot of his words, but it defy comparison with other people.

So, I'm thinking I should talk to him again or not. I bet he won't answer me though. lol Or find a good English speaker? .... Both are difficult, and not self study. lol

Anyway, ( ｣ﾟДﾟ)｣ I WANNA SPEAK ENGLISH FLUENTLY~~~!!!!!!

Done.

Sad day.

2011-11-20T20:27:00.003+09:00

I got home one hour ago from my uncle's funeral.

Actually I didn't cry at all when gramma died, but this time was different. It may be the first time in my life that I felt sad so much in the funeral...

His sickly face, his body as thin as a rail, little blood of a corner of his mouth, a little tear in his left eye... we knew through these his death following devastating illness. However his face became peaceful bit by bit, but it made us sad more... because we had to turn him into ashes after we took his funeral...his oldest son had to push a switch to set fire... we couldn't stop crying....

And at the same time, I was thinking my older brother has to do that when my father died. I didn't want to imagine it, but no one can't avoid it. It is the natural providence... my father said I should be nice to him in his lifetime. That's true. But I don't know what I should do for my father... I am idiot... :(
Ancestor said "By the time you wish to be a good son, your parents are long gone."

May Occhan rest in peace.

2011-11-18T23:18:00.005+09:00

Occhan (my uncle) was drawn up to heaven right now.
He has a too bad mouth, I didn't like him much when I was a child. But after come of age, I could say anything to him without constraint. So I feel sad so much now.... And this weekend, we hold a wake (Tsuya) and a funeral (Sougi).
Ah.. I have to look for a mourning (Mofuku) and beads (Juzu) from now... :O
Anyways I'll go to see you, Occhan.:) Later!

Bakery.

Have you ever been to PAUL? It's a French bakery. There are a lot of Japanese branch here, I went to Osaka Honmachi branch today after work, but I don't go there anymore. Because it was nothing special, but TOO EXPENSIVE! D: I could bought only two breads. lol A central branch may be special though.

I'm UNKO!

Friends

2011-11-13T23:07:00.004+09:00

Well, I'm going to write about my thought of English things today. Maybe I wrote it before?, but it is differ in content.

At first, I will write about my history of English.
In 2008, I worked with an American guy at a last job. Until then, I really was not interested in English. But it was a turning point in my life. After he left a job, I started to writing English blog.... 3 and a half years. It's long time enough.

I tried to visit a lot of English community sites to make foreign friends on the internet. Blogger, Facebook, Twitter, Shared Talk, Blogtv, Youtube, ICQ, and more other sites, and made accounts of Skype and MSN to communicate with them.

Actually, there are good sites, but of course there are bad sites, too.
As the first tool to making foreign friends, I used Skype. Because at that time, there was Skype me system on Skype. As you know most people were pervs though. So I made a lot of perv friends, but most people are not friends now. :D

At the same time, I visited English chat sites like ICQ, but they were too hard to understand English for me because all chatters used English slang. So I gave up to use them soon. But Shared Talk was better. Because it is language exchange site. But something happened there, I didn't go there anymore. As you know, the internet life has a lot of troubles of human relations like real life.

So I made Facebook and Twitter accounts, and started to write blog. But I couldn't any friends there. lol I didn't know I need friends already to enlarge the number of friends. xD Therefore I didn't use Facebook much.

Then, my turning point came. One day, an old Skype me friend tweeted about Blogtv. When I visited there for the first time, I really was surprised. Because I only know text chat, but it was a video chat site. I was like Urashima Taro. lol
But actually I couldn't understand what they say. And it kept for around 3 months. Because I was in Russian room everyday. lol I Just found a cute boy that wore a Santa Claus's cap was Russian. That room doesn't feel bad much though... One day, an American girl entered that room, and we became friends. And she told me how I broadcast there without a web camera. It was the first time that I broadcast on the internet. So I didn't know what I should do, but luckily, there were some foreigners who like Japan and Japanese things, they became my friends.
It may be an exaggeration, but my internet life was changed from at that time. America, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, Austria, Poland, Sweden, Korea, Japan, Germany, France, Tunisia, Hawaii, China and etc... I could make a lot of international friends. :)
They may be Otaku of Japanese things, but yes, I also am Otaku of English speakers. lol So I really enjoyed with them. Still I visit there plus Stickam and Niconama, and I am making friends.

As you know, I met an internet friend this month. It also was my turning point. Recently I noticed I have a treasure named international friends, but no one can do it. I think this also is my fragmentary efforts.

As I mentioned earlier, human relations sometimes get complicating troubles, I have lost some friends. It may be more than real life. Because we meet and talk everyday. And sometimes we talk about problems that we can't talk to real friends.

So what I wanted to write today is I have really really really awesome friends in the world, but I was lazy, I didn't talk to them much.
However I have to value them always.
And I get along well with them more and more!( ● ´ ー｀ ● )

And if I'm lucky, I can make more foreign friends. :D So 1st lesson video is Ken Hirai's Half of me. Yes, I translated it before.

2011-11-07T13:02:00.003+09:00

song of memories

2011-11-05T00:18:00.005+09:00

How many songs of memories do you have? Maybe you can't count it. Me too.

1. By the time I started blogging in English, I listened to this song well.
Jason Mraz - I'm yours

2. When I liked one guy, I listened this song EVERY MORNING. Maybe 3 years ago?
Elvis Costello - She (Noting Hill's Main theme)

3. Awww I really loved this song. I also listened to this song everyday. lol At that time, I have had a crush on a younger guy ever since the day we met. Every night, I went to his house by a car, and I enjoyed driving with him. Maybe 5 years ago.
Ken Hirai - Omoi Ga Kasanaru Sono Mae Ni

4. This song's memory is not so old. It happened this year. After my boyfriend left me, I listened to this song well. I regretted my mistakes for him that I made until I notice I have no chance to repair our relationship. Now? No, I'm not in love. But I want to be friend with him again if he can forgive me. Because I got a lot of things from him especially English. :)
Ken Hirai - Half of Me

5. I began to listen to the Western music because of No.4 guy. And this is a song of my memory, too. I like sad songs, he told me it.
Brian Mcknight - 6,8,12

6. This song is too old. :D I had a relationship with a 2 years older guy for 4 years. Definitely, he was like a chinpira, so I was waiting a chance to break up. But actually, I learned a lot of thing from him. Therefore it became a good medicine to me now. Of course we had a good time at first. He hold my hand, and sang this song. lol
The Boom - Hoshi No Love Letter

7. I cried and sang this song I was thinking of a boyfriend. I really wonder why I should cried. Because he lived within driving distance of 30 minutes from my house. lol Youthful mistake? xD
Komi Hirose - Dear... again

8. Well, this song (this band) reminds me of my youth. lol Me and my friend really loved them. We sang their songs, made their scrapbooks, went to their conhttp://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gifcerts, talked about them everyday. We never felt bored of them. xD
JUN SKY WALKER(S) - Koe Ga Nakunaru Made

I have more songs of my memories, but I can't remember them. Ahh I'm a bit sentimental now. Hahaha xD

NO MUSIC, NO LIFE. by Tower Record

No.1 song

2011-11-03T14:09:00.005+09:00

In the past, I didn't listen to the Western musics at all, but recently I prefer listening to Western musics since I met a guy who I liked. But now, I'm listening to Ken Hirai's songs, feel relaxed with his voice.　( ● ´ ー｀ ● ) And this song is my favorite song of Ken, though its lyrics are a bit sad.

Ken Hirai - Half of Me

(Lyrics)
飲み物でも買いに行くように、君は「じゃあね」と言った。
You said 'Bye bye' easily like going to buy drinks.
閉めたドアの音が重く響いて、
The sound of a door closing resounded deeply,
この胸を引き裂いた。
and it cut my heart.

君が置いていった雑誌には、コップのシミができて、
A magazine that you left got a glass smear,
乾いて消えるかと思ったら、
I thought it would come out after it dried,
アザのように残った・・・
But it is lingering here still now like a bruise.

窓を開けて、空を見上げ、
I open a window, and am looking up to the sky.
君がいない世界が待ってる。
My life without you is waiting there.

何を残し、何を捨てればいい・・・
What should I retain, what should I forget...?
泣き出しそうな思い出抱きしめた。
I cuddled my tearful memories.

何を見ても、何に触れていても、
Even if I see anything, even if I touch anything,
二人で分け合ったことに気づく。
I remember you and me have shared everything.
窮屈だった夜ほど愛しくて、
I feel love for even the night we had fights,
痛みだけがそばにいた・・・
Only emotional pain is around me...

新しいキスをいくつもして、塗り替えたつもりでも、
I tried to kiss many girls to reshape my memories of you,
君という空白は埋まらない。あの日からずっと・・・
But my life can't still fill a void without you since that day...

Ohh~ You're the other half that makes me whole.
La　La　La~

抱えた傷は形を変え、いつしか体の一部になる。
My sadness I have changed for another new sadness, and it would be a part of me.
人はどうして叶えられぬものを、引きずりながら生きていくんだろう。
Why do we keep spending our life with impossible desire?

何を見ても、何を感じてても、
Even if I see anything, even if I feel anything,
二人で分け合ったことに気づく。
I remember you and me have shared everything.
僕はこれからも探すのだろう、失われた半分を。
From now on I will look for a half of me that I lost.

何を残し、何を捨てればいい、
What should I retain, what should I forget...?
何を忘れ何を願えばいい・・・
What should I forget, what should I hope...?

誰もが迷い探し続けてる、壊れやすい永遠を。
We all will keep on looking for fragile eternal love.
失われた半分を...
Half of ourselves that we lost....

Great Day

I got home at 0:30 am. YES, I have met Iowa girl and her boyfriend. It was really really really nice meeting! She is very natural, I really like her. Of course her boyfriend also is nice guy. They are madly in love with each other. :)))) I was happy to see it ･:*:･(*´∀｀*)･:*:･

So first, we went to a Yakitori bar, and drank some beers. I can't speak and listening to English, I bothered her very often. Hahaha :D Sometimes, me and her boyfriend used an electronic dictionary and iPhone's translater..... But anyways, it was really fun! :)

And next, we went to a cake shop, we had happy time for a little. :)

And! She wanted to playing bowling. :D We were going to play 2 games, but I couldn't play it... D: I really felt I'm old. lol And see my 1st game's score.....Too bad xD

AND!!!! She wanted to playing batting and pitching. She is really active and cute girl. lol I couldn't do it for tomorrow.... no power ><
And now, I'm getting a cramp in my leg........ lol

At last, I met her on the internet about 2 years ago, honestly I scared of meeting internet friends. But after I met her, my thoughts changed by her. It was really great day for me. Because I could know her good personality more. She is still 21, but She is definitely reliable and attractive, I think I'm really happy to have a wonderful foreign friend. ヾ(*´∀｀*)ﾉ

1st time

2011-11-02T11:33:00.002+09:00

Today, I will meet Iowa's friend for the first time! She came to Japan to meet her Japanese boyfriend. And they are staying in Osaka now! So I'm going to Izakaya with them this night. I really am exciting to meet them because it is for the first time to meet foreign friend, though I made some foreign friends for 3 yearsヽ(・∀・ )ﾉ

Takoyaki Bar "Masamune"

2011-10-09T17:58:00.002+09:00

After I went to JRA, I stopped off in Takoyaki Bar "Masamune".

Those are cheese version, and about right 3 on a pic,
I have ate them with curry powder and Ichimi each.
Cheese Takoyaki is the best match for curry flavor.

This Takoyaki is Masamune's original one.
Fry it in frying pan for Takoyaki, crunchy and crispy.
Like rice cracker. :)

JRA Kyoto

2011-10-09T17:39:00.006+09:00

It was sunny day today! I went to JRA Kyoto (JRA means Japan Racing Association) from early morning 7 am. I'm not interested in horse race though. :P Now Japanese racetrack fully refurbished cleanly. So many families and couples are coming there. I read something before that the racetracks are date spot for couples. :D Actually almost people are old men or families today though. I saw a lot of greens, could refresh! :)

It's been years since I've seen sunrise!

JRA Kyoto's paddock.

Right character is Sento Kun
He is Nara Prefecture's character,
but he was there...And I don't know
who that kid is. lol

Sports festival @ playschool

2011-10-08T17:24:00.000+09:00

Today was my nephews' sports festival. Older nephew is 5 years old, and younger nephew is 3 years old now. To older nephew, today was last sport festival at playschool. The oldest class shows us drum and bugle corps and gymnastic formation. I guessed and wrote I will cry in a diary of Oct 2nd, but I couldn't cry at all. lol I drum and bugle coprs for the first time, I cried out though, I didn't know any kids that doing it.　But I had felt older nephew grew from a baby to a boy! :) I had happy time again by kids.

SALT

2011-10-02T15:55:00.002+09:00

Have you ever tried to put salt on watermelon to eat? I do. If you do it, you can feel more sweet taste of it.
So, you see this picture and its package. It says GLICO POCKY MILK CHOCOLATE "SALTY." Yes. I can feel more sweet it by salt taste. :D

Sports festival @ elementary school

2011-10-02T15:53:00.000+09:00

I went to watch my niece's sports festival today. This picture is the main event of 6th graders that named 'gymnastic formation.'
Actually I don't know who they are, but I always cry in this program of sports festival. Imagine their situation.... they enjoy their life in the school, and they graduate from school in 5 months. To them, this festival would be the last pleasant memory in their school life. Ahhhh I'm feeling happy to watching that amazing show now, but I can cry again at the same time. Hahaha :D

By the way, I'm going to go to other sports festival of my nephews next Saturday. I'm sure I cry again. :P

Anyway, I had a happy time today! :)

After work

2011-09-25T19:38:00.003+09:00

I have discussed human relationship with 2 coworkers at the cafe after work.
Now one coworker was absent from work for 4 consecutive days, and she has trouble of it a lot. But we think she just runs around in emotional circles, and it is very selfish. Because she is thinking all team managers dislikes her, she goes over their head.
They was nice to her at first, but who can be nice like that person? They are still young, and they have a lot of something to do than us. And they are human. There is good time and bad time in their position. But she can't understand it. She just pick up their bad acting and appeal directly.
In addition, we have 20 coworkers that joined this company at same time, and she thinks they all dislike her. No wonder! They are being bothered by her words and deeds. But she doesn't change her mind, just thinks about only her.
I lent my ears to her at first, and advised her a lot. But she doesn't lend her ears to me yet. I rally am disgusted. I think she should leave a job.
Haaaa... I wasted my time. D:

OMG! :O

Today is the final day of 3 days off. Hmm... my brain was reset to zero. I'm not sure I can work as usual or not ... hahaha
Btw, I tried to watch Winter Sonata all 20 episodes during these 3 days because I felt like crying. lol But I don't finish watching it yet. Still Ep16. Yes, its almost climax, but I feel it's a bit boring because I have watched it twice before.

Love - Destiny by Ken Hirai

I'm not?

2011-09-11T20:57:00.004+09:00

I thought I'm a kind of tough woman. But I'm feeling tired so much recently. So maybe I'm not?

The cause could be two things.
1. Cycling to work for 20 mins.
2. Staying late at night.

When I was young more, I really felt how tough I am! But how about now? I know especially No.2 must be getting me old, and would not be making me tough. But actually I can refresh my mind by No.2, I can't stop it. :P

And actually I could do anything when I thought like that, so I was thinking it's important to think that I am tough.

But I started to change my thoughts....because I may not notice even if my condition is bad.

Ahhhh I wanna be a tough woman forever anyways!Uhahahaha~ :D

2011-09-03T22:36:00.002+09:00

My Birthday. This year's birthday was awesome same as last year's. Some internet friends sang birthday song for me on Skype call. I really was happy <3 If they are Japanese, I'm sure they didn't sing. So I'm thinking how nice foreigners mind is!I don't know I can sing for my internet friends like them or not, but I will try! xD Oh wait, one Japanese friend sang birthday song on the phone call! I shouldn't forget it. Actually she always has really large mind like foreigners. So I have to try to sing for someone for sure!By the way, I'm going to return here :D Of course, I like tumblr, and it is good site. But I'm thinking blogger is better than it.

Izakaya

2011-09-02T05:30:00.004+09:00

5:30 am: I got home right now!
I went to Izakaya with co-workers, and we sat and talked on the street all night like teenagers. HAHAHA.

The incense sticks

2011-08-13T21:36:00.002+09:00

Now in Japan, we have Bon holiday. And I went to Koyasan with my family today. Those are Mizukake Jizo, we souse water over them to make wish, or to cleanse of own foulness.

The smell of the incense sticks I can relax to. I love it.

After visited Koyasan, me and family went to Tarui Southern Beach. I love watching the sun set over the sea…That was amazing!

Hanabi Festival

2011-07-25T20:00:00.003+09:00

July 25 was the Tenjin festival in Osaka. The fireworks are set off over the Dojima river every year, I was waiting it with co-workers this year at the office. You see many people on the big boards.

While I was waiting for fireworks, ordered pizza. BUT there were many people, I could eat only a piece of pizza.

I was waiting to see fireworks from 6pm. But it came to 7pm, we couldn't see fireworks yet....... So just took a night view. And then, at 7:30 pm, I could see smaaaaaaaaaaaall fireworks in the distance. D: I tried to take some pictures of fireworks, but it was very hard.... It looked like just fire or explosion... T_T

Love is the game.

2011-07-25T19:40:00.001+09:00

It's actually a game that requires even greater precision and planning. A game of power. Manipulations of emotions to control the mind. It's a game where the one who displays affection first, gives up total control and goes around like a dog on a collar. In relationships, you are the one to call first, and he is the one to hang up first. And when you got together, you'd always run to him. And you always give him gifts on anniversaries, only you. These are the consequences of dating without any self respect. And if you continue acting like this, being pathetic, you'll always be treated like trash by men. and you'll grow old. All by yourself.

At the temple

2011-05-16T12:40:00.004+09:00

You see red ball in huge Juzu (=数珠/beads). This is a bit different from general temple's bells or gong. But it has same meaning as praying.

If you find this when you visit the temple in Japan, pull down that huge Juzu, and round it. And pray for something :)

Oyabun and Kobun

2011-05-16T12:16:00.004+09:00

They are my nephews, they are wearing Kanji T-shirt. Left one is Oyabun (=親分/Boss), and right one is Kobun (=子分/henchman).
They fight always, and annoy me :( But they can be nice to each other when they eat something :D
Foods makes us HAPPY!

Fogged glass :(

2011-04-21T00:21:00.005+09:00

I had looked for the product related to Tohoku earthquake and tsunami for a few weeks. I contacted a lot of companies which are in China, Germany, and USA, I was going to import their products. But I noticed I have to shift my frame of reference since I watched one video.

Maybe you cannot understand what he says, but to sum up, he is in Iwate Prefecture, and he is a manufacturer of Sake. After happened the earthquake, they don't get any orders because we who lives in other areas of Tohoku thought we should control shopping, drinking, and like fun things voluntarily. And it is not only by us, as for foreigners, they are thinking Japanese products are danger especially Tohoku's.

So, that old guy in a video hopes that we go to Hanami (cherry　blossom viewing), because he thinks it will bring second accident as economic issues. Yes, he is right, and I was wrong. I could know what is really needed by him. Maybe I didn't understand the meaning of 'GANBARE NIPPON!'. I have a narrow outlook on things...

Setsubun

2011-02-03T14:33:00.005+09:00

February 3rd is Setsubun. Refer to Wikipedia about what Setsubun is. :P
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Setsubun

Usually, on Setsubun, we scatter roasted soybeans to drive demons away, and eat Iwashi(Sardine), and Ehou-maki(Makisushi/Sushi roll) to getting luck.

So I made the following Setsubun meal for today's lunch :)

1)Nimono: this is very common cooked foods in Japan that include chicken(or pork/beef), vegetables and konjac. But it is flavored too strongly....failed! lol

2)Yakizakana: Maybe you know this one 'roast sardine'.

3)Tsukemono: Refer to Wikipedia again lol(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tsukemono)
I used Kyuri(pickles?) and Hakusai(napa), and we call this one Asazuke(shallow pickling). Not nukazuke things. It's easy to make :)

4)Makisushi: On Setsubun, we call it Ehou-maki. Ehou means lucky direction, and it is different every year, we look to toward Ehou of the year and eat Ehou-maki. AND it has a few rules! We can&t talk anything, and eat it one roll. If we don't do like that, we can't get lucky lol

5)Noppei-jiru: PLEASE refer to Wikipedia once again!xD (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noppe)

And next, I have to scatter roasted soybeans, but I don't want to mess my house by roasted soybeans...

Dear God, please give me lucky!:P

Ebe-ssan 2011

2011-01-09T18:48:00.004+09:00

I noticed today is Ebe-ssan on the way back from Yamada Denki! Ebe-ssan is very near to Yamada Denki, that's why there was crowded.　I was alone today, so I just walked around and eat Tako-senbei (Shrimp senbei with Takoyaki filling?).

Digital Camera......

2011-01-09T17:53:00.007+09:00

I want to work at an electronics retail store as a temporary staff like last year. So I go for a job interview of Panasonic's temporary staff at Tuesday. Next products are 'digital cameras'. I'm sure it will be hard work to me because I have never had one. so I have to study of it before taking a job interview. Then I went to Yamada Denki today, and collected the catalogs. At a Yamada Denki, I heard some customer's questions.....they were very technical things!! Ahhh I felt very anxious!
Anyway, I just try to do my best!:)
