I got parcel from Germany.
There are too many chocolates!!

My friend sent me them on 20th(?) Feb.
But it's 10th Apr today.
It took too much time.
I had been thinking this parcel was sent by ship. I'm afraid that this parcel was gone on the way.
So I'm glad to get safely.

Hehe, many chocolats.



















And my friend wrote to me.
"Don't forget to use this after you eat chocolate"

Haha, that's right.
It's toohbrush of Spongebob.
I like Spongebob very much. So I'm very very very glad.

My pet Bonz wears my slippers. He likes them so much. Because he wears my slippers, I have to be naked feet.
Haha :D
This slippers become him, I think.
How do you think??

But my feet feel cold...

COLD

I was back from Taiwan yesterday.
I wanna write a lot of things what it happened in Taiwan, but I am catching cold now.
I hope not it's influenza.
When I recover, I will write the story.

Taipei

Next weekend, I will go to Taiwan.
It will be twice for me to go there.
It's just trip, not business :D

Recently I have been busy my work, so I haven't been able to prepare for this trip.
Thus, I had to prepare for this weekend. And now, I'm ready, I think.

According to weather forecast,it will be rainy day in Taiwan.
I'm very sorry to know that. But it's ok, only if I can spend wonderful time there.

I took these pictures when I went to Taiwan before.
First picture is emergency exit.
It's funny, because legs are much longer than Japanese one.
It seems to rush, isn't it??
Next picture is... actually I don't know. This was in the city.

When I go there, I will take many picutres :D

EBI Without a trace

I like this TV drama. Do you know??
But I have seen until 3rd season on TV.
Recently I bought this first season DVD :)
This weekend, I didn't feel well, so I stayed in my bed and
watched DVD.
Haha, it's very bad life :(
But it was very fun and could study English a little bit.
Maybe I will buy another season DVD.
But they are sold only until 2nd in Japan.
3rd season will be sold on 25th June.
I will get it :)

Present :)

Ein Geschenk ist aus Deutschland gekommen!!
Ich bin frooooooooooooooooh jetzt!!
Vielen Dank, meine Freundin!!

Thinking

Recently I consider about my life.Is this my routine work really good for me??
When I was employed by the president, he said to me"I don't think that I'd love to complete this system. What I wanna know is whether this system is really needed by society. So I want you to check it."
Then I had been checking this system for 1year.And I reported to my boss that this system has many problem and it's difficult to be sold as System.
But the president seems not to want to give up.Actually, this work would be finished last summer, but president decided to continue it by me, without my permission.(Of course, it's natural that he's president. But I think he should have had some meeting and so on...)It was very shocking for me. I believed that I could do new job. Why do I wanna quit this job?? Because our company can't get benefit until this system is completed and sold...It is hard for me to continue such as not seeing the future...
And I seem to have to continue it for more 1year....Isn't it really vain time??There are many many problems yet, so I judged that this system isn't needed by society.If there are high probability to complete, I should work on it. But it's not so....I think it is vain time.Our employer don't think that making this system is good.How should I keep my motivation of this work in this such mood??Ohhh, I can't know what to do.

The Doll's Festival.

Tomorrow(3th March) is The Doll's Festival. We call it "Hinamaturi" in Japan.
This day, parents hope their girl's happiness. This day is said so.
The detail is here.

I made some Sushi today. Many people in Japan make Sushi or Chirashi-Sushi on this day.
Hehe, look at these.
They were very good tasty.
Sushi I make is not bad, but I have to practice more.
Because I wanna teach it to some friends who live in foreign countries when I go to abroad.

DELTA

Do you know her??
This singer comes from Australia and her name is Delta Goodrem.
Her voice is very beautiful.
She is a famous singer in Australia.( I think it is not only Australia but all over the world).

But her life was very hard...
She is 23 years old, but she had a cancer about 2years ago.
She got over the disease and came back to the position of top singer in Australia.

When I listen to her music, I am cheered up.
And I feel that I seem to have to do my best in my life.

This CD is her new album.
I bought this CD today and listened to it.
It was very beautiful song as same as her ex-CD.

Traveling

I am going to go to Germany again.
Maybe I have vacation from 3th May to 11th May.
But I have to take holidays between the periods.
(7th, 8th, 9th).

I wanna go to Frankfurt, but I wanna go to Cogolne, too.
Uhhhh, which city should I select??
Of course I don't know whether I can take holidays yet.
And I don't know whether I can reserve the tickets.
There are many problems, but I'd love to go to Germany again!!
I wish I could go there!!


Today I have a stomachache. I didn't eat strange things!!
Why do I have stomachache.....
I should take some medicine.
Ich soll tablette nehmen.

Windy day

Yesterday, no , today I went back to home.
Actually, I would be home on 22:30 on Sunday. But it was strong windy day yesterday in Tokyo.
Many trains were delay and stopped.
So when I got to home, it was 0:30....
It was very tired, so I didn't wanna go to work today.
But I have many things to do today...

On Thursday and Friday, I went to some company. And we had some meetings.
Then it was very sunny day in Tokyo.
On Saturday and Sunday, it was just trip for me.
I had something happy things there.
I checked into hotel. then women in reception said.
"I'm so sorry. We have many guest today. Could I change your room into upgrade room?? Of course you don't need to pay extra money."
I said, "Oh, really?? Of course, it's ok ."
Don't you think it is lucky to stay at upgrade room without paying extra money??

And on Saturday, a parcel from Germany arrived to my house.
I have been waiting it for long time.
Usually, it takes about 5days to arrive the parcel from Germany.
But my friends sent it to me about 1month ago.
I'm worried about it. Maybe it was missing??
So I was very glad to get it.
I show some pics :)

Notebook, sticker, puzzle, armband,
photo album with my friend's family,
birthday card etc....
I was very happy :)
Thank you sooooooooooooooo much , my sister :)

Business Trip

Tomorrow, I will have to go to Tokyo for business trip with my boss.
Actually I don't wanna go.I wish it were just trip.

And Saturday and Sunday, I will take part in some class in Tokyo.
The class is to get a license of English teacher in elementary school.

If I could get a English teacher license, I wanna go abroad before I teach English for child.
I wanna re-study my English.
And I wanna study German, too....

Yesterday, I chatted with my friend's mother.
She only speaks German, so we chatted in German.
But it took many many time to understand her German and to write German for me.
It was very shocking for me.
I study German, but it's not enough.
I have to study much harder.

Strange feet

Recently I haven't been able to write this weblog.
Because I'm bad condition.

I don't know the why, but my feet move without my conscious. Especially evening and night.
So I couldn't sleep well recently.
The symptoms are similar to Restless legs syndrome.

But difference from this disease and my symptom is not leg, but feet.
My symptom appeared in my feet.
But tResrless legs syndrome are appeared mostly in legs.

Should I go to the hospital?? But I don't have any pain.....
Anyway, I hope I could sleep well.....

It was heavy snowy day today.
Furthermore it was heavy windy day, too.
So it was very dangerous to drive.

It was unlucky day for me.
First, this bad weather.
Next, my pc in my office was bad condition.
But the reason of bad condition is that I made and wrote a bad program...
So I can't blame anybody. The worst person is me :( Oh-oh.

But I rewrote my program and fixed them up.
So I could make PC good condition somehow.

I hope tomorrow will be happy day for me :)

Stomatitis

I have a stomatitis.
When I eat something, talk with my friends, and yawn, I feel pain.
It might be from lacking of some vitamines??
I hope it will be better by tomorrow.
I should take some vitamines.


Today is holiday, but it's terrible day.
Why??Because refrigerator was broken :(
Refrigerator becomes freezer.
Everything in the refrigerator was frozen.
For example, eggs, natto, jams....
I hope refrigerator will be good as same as my stomatitis.

Short Bob

I went to a beauty parlor today. My hair was very long and I wanted to make my hair short Bob.
So I did.
I think, if women had long hair, they seem to look feminine.
So I wanted to be long hair, but I don't suit long hair, unfortunately.
But there are something easy if I have short hair.
For example, I can dry my hair soon.
When I went back from a beauty parlor, my mother said to me. "Haha, you just look like junior high school students!!"
What a rude!!
But she's true.
If people cut their hair, they look younger, I think.
But junior high school student...
I'm already 25 years old.

By the way, I have short bob now.
Speaking of bob.... Sponge Bob, haha.
I am matching with sponge Bob.

World Heritage.

I am interested in world heritages. So I wanna go many places.
The place I am most interested in is Machu Picchu in Peru.
It is called air city, isn't it??
Machu Picchu is very mysterious. I'm very interested in how the city was built.
Since it takes very high cost to travel there, I can't go there soon.
But I wanna go there someday.
I should cross with my fingers.

BEAUTIFUL

I went outside just now.
There are nothing around my house, for example neon.
And it's winter now.
The air is clear in winter.
So I could see a beautiful sky and stars.
I don't remember what each star is.
But they are really beautiful.
Seeing stars makes me be calm.
Tomorrow I will see them again :)

Ich hatte viel zu tun heute.

I had to overwork today.
I did many things....
So I had a headache and my eyes strain.
Maybe I will be busy tomorrow, too.
I should go to bed early so that I can work harder tomorrow.
But we have 3holidays from day after tomorrow to Monday.
It will be a good time for me to take a refresh and relax.
I will work harder tomorrow so that I can spend wonderful time on holidays.

Twist.

Today I sprained my ankle. Unbelievable...
My boss sit on his chair. And I squat near him to talk to him.
When we finished conversation, I tried to stand up.
But!!!!!
At the time, I twisted my ankle.
Oh my god.
I felt quite wretched about it.
Perhaps, I'm lack of exercise.
I have to put poultice on my ankle.

By the way, my favourite SpongeBob's key ring was broken.
I have to buy new one.
-------------------
今日、足を捻挫しました。信じられません…
上司が自分の椅子に座っていて、私は立ち膝の状態で
上司と話してたんです。
話が終わって、立ち上がろうとした瞬間に足を捻ったようです。
ホント信じられません…
なんとも情けない。。。
きっと運動不足なんだろうなぁ。湿布張らなくちゃ。

Simple Pleasure.

My simple pleasure is to eat something sweet.

This is my favourite pudding.
This pudding is covered with many creams.
It's very yummy!!
Why does the sweet make person (especially women) to be happy??

It's 21:20 now. It's too late to eat something...
This pudding's calorie is rich.
Oh dear, I will get fat :(

無駄な時間はない？

人生には意味のないものはない、とか
人生で無駄な時間はない、とか言いますが、
これって本当でしょうか？

もちろん、長い目で見ればそうだってことは分かるんですが、
でも、若いときにしかできないこともあると思う。
ワーホリなんかがいい例。
イギリスでのワーホリは25歳以下（より下?）なので、
すでに25歳の私はイギリスでのワーホリは出来ません

ドイツでは、30歳までＯＫなので、まー時間はまだたっぷりあるじゃん！！
と言われるけど、やっぱり若いうちの方がいいと思う。
ドイツ語にしろ、何かを学ぶのはやっぱり若い方がいいと思う。
ワーホリ終わって日本に戻って、仕事を見つけるにしても
やっぱり若い方が仕事は見つけやすいと思うし。

私の現在の仕事は研究職なんだけど、
明日、来月、来年、自分が何をしているのか全く想像出来ません。
先が見えないってのは結構辛い。
人生は何が起こるかわからないから楽しい
そういう人もいます。
人生とはそんなもの、それは正しいって分かってるんだけど、
でも私は安定が欲しいかも…。

でももし、毎日毎日、同じことをやっていたとしたら、
「刺激が欲しい！！」って言ってそう。
わがままな私です…

話がずれたけど、とにかく私が言いたいのは、
状況とか仕事とか環境とか変えたいな！
ってことです。

Nothing Vain Time

There is nothing which doesn't have meaning in the life.
Nothing is vain time in the life.
Is this really sure??
It may be so in the long run.
But there are something to be able to do only when I am young age.
Working holiday is good example of this.
In U.K, under 25 years old persons can do Working holiday.
So, I can't already do this in England....
In Germany, people can do it till 30 years old.
So I can say that I have many time. Because I'm 25 years old yet.
But it would be better to do within younger.
Learning to German or something is better within younger.
And when I am back to Japan, if I were young , it would be easier to find the job.

Now my work is to research.
I can't imagine what I do tomorrow, next month, or next year.
It is very hard not to be able to see
the future.
The life is fun, because we don't know what will happen in the future. There are some people so.
The life is more like it.
That's true, I think.
But I want stability.

But if I do same thing every day,
I will say this.
"I want excitement".
Oh, what a selfish person I am.
Anyway, what I wanna say is want to change my now condition, work, environment.

End of Winter on calender in Japan.

Today it is "Setubun". This means that winter and spring are separated on today.
But this is only on the calender.
In Japan, it is said that to throw some beans out with saying "Oni ha Soto, Huku ha uti" , and then to eat beans of the number of age are good.
Recently, eating Norimaki, which means rice roll, is popular in Japan.
This seems traditional custom in Kyoto. I heard so.
But now many people do this.
This rice roll is called "Ehou-maki (恵方巻)".

This includes a various cooking ingredients.
For example... eggs, cucumbers, kamaboko(it's something like a pastes fishes)...
It seems good that we put 7 ingredients in this rice roll. This 7 cooking ingredients mean 7 happy gods.


We can buy this Ehou-maki everywhere, for example convenience stores, super market, and so on.
Of course, we can make , too.
So I made this at my home :)

But there were not 7 ingredients, so I put ingredients which are in my refrigerator, in Eho-maki.
For example, eggs, tuna, Nato, and white radish sprouts.
Haha, just only 4 ingredients :(
But they tastes very good :)

Chocolate :)

Today I bought some funny and cute chocolates for the valentine day :)
I don't know the detail how to spend the day in other countries.
In Japan, women or girls usually give some chocolates to her boyfriend, colleagues, brother, father, and so on.
That is to say, women or girls gives them to only boys and men.
But recently there are many cute and funny chocolates. So they buy for themselves or exchange chocolates during women.

I found some so funny chocolates on the shopping center.
I will send them for my friends who live in Germany.
I wanna show their photos, but I want them to be surprised.So I can't upload them yet.

Geschenk

Today I got a present from beadexplorer.
Postcards, comic(Simpsons), and sweet :)
Thank you soooooooooooooo much!!

When I came home with tired,
this present was put on my room.
What a happy day!!
The end of day is happy, all day is happy :P

The comic(cartoon) is written in German.
So I can study German by this!

And I like Postcards so much. I have some postcards that have been sent from my friends. I am hanging them on the wall in my room.
I like watching them!
So I will hang them on the wall, too.

Again, thank you so much. And I will send something next time!
So if you have somethign you want, please tell me:)

Today's beautiful word.

Slump is the time period to look forward to.

This word makes me positive.
There are many thing that don't go well.
For example, if I study English and German everyday,
but I don't become good speaker easily.
At then, I wanna quit continuing them.
But if I can remember this word then,
I'm sure to keep up.

This word is applied to anything else, too, I think.
Work, sport, study and etc.

If something that isn't good happens and it lasts,
"slump is the time period to look forward to",
isn't it??

Super Grand mother..

My grandmother is amazing. Why??
Because she can use mobile phone and electric dictionary.　
I think grandmother in all over the world can’t use them very well.
Don’t you think so??
My grandmother is 74 years old.
She send me e-mail by mobile phone sometimes.
But she can't use PC. One reason is that she doesn't have one. But I think if she have one, she could use it.
I don't think she is sure to dote.

A reencounter

My friend in Germany told me good site.
It's studivz.net.

I could meet the person who met when I went to Germany !!
What a wonderful!!
I have been thinking that I wanna contact with her.
So I could it.
Network and Internet are nice tool to contact with people in all over the world.
But problem is.... I can't understand German very well.
Of course, I can understand if I use long time..
I have to study German harder!!

Beautiful Word.

"If you can imagine it, you can achieve it.
If you can dream it, you can become it."

Don't you think this word is beautiful??
I don't know who said this word, but this word is quoted on Japanese Manga.

There are many bad things and I often feel what unlucky person I am.
But at such the time, I remember this word.
So I am cheered up by this.


I have a lot of things to want to do, but I can't do them by various reasons.
But they're just excuses.
The reason I can't do it is not lack of my ability.
It's because I don't start it.
I should act what I want :)

Disease( in Japanese) / 病気

私は長い間ある病気に苦しめられてきました。
しかし最初は、それが何の病気であるのか分かりませんでした。
よく分からないけど、でも体の調子が良くない。
体の状態を上手く説明できないけれど、うんと悪いわけではないけど、
なんだか良くない、そんな感じでした。

で、風邪をひいていった病院で偶然先生に私の病気を見つけてもらえました。
私の病気は橋本病です。
知ってますか？？
橋本病で、甲状腺の機能が低下する人はそんなに多くないらしいけど、
私は、そのタイプで、薬を毎日飲まなければいけません。
この病気は完治することがありません。
薬を毎日飲んでさえいれば、体の調子は良くなります。
たとえ、私が毎日飲まなくても、死ぬことはなくて、ただ体の調子が悪くなるだけです。
でも、体の調子が悪くなるのは嫌なので、私は毎日薬を飲んでいました。


でも、最近、忙しかったり、体の調子が良い日が続いたので、
私は病院へ行きませんでした。
でも私の薬は1ヶ月前になくなりました。

そして、最近私は体の調子が良くないと感じています。
おそらく、というか絶対だけど、これは私が薬を飲まないことから来ていると思います。
会社には行くことができるけど、でもちょっと辛い。
そんな日が続きました。

そして今日病院に電話しました。
薬が切れたこと、そして、
しばらくは病院に行けないことを伝えました。
そして、病院のスタッフに薬を自宅に送ってもらえないか頼みました。
スタッフの方は、「送ってもいいけど、1ヶ月後には必ず来てね。」
と言っていました。
私はそれに同意しました。

今回、感じたのは、体の調子が悪くなくても薬は飲み続けることが大事なんだな、
といこと。
病気はきっと目に見えないところで進行しているんでしょうね。

Disease

I had been suffering from some disease for long long time.
But I haven't noticed what disease is.
I don't know well, but my body was not good .
I can't explain my condition, but it was not bad and not good. It's like it.
But when I went to the hospital because of cold, the doctor found my disease out accidentally. My disease is Hashimoto's thyroiditis.
Do you know about it?? The details of this disease is here.
So I have to take a medicines everyday.
I'm not able to get over this disease. But if I am taking some medicines everyday, my body can be good condition.
Even if I don't take the medicines, I can't die. I only am bad condition.
But I hate to be bad condition, so I always have taken the medicines.


But recently I was very busy and I felt good, so I didn't go to the hospital.
And my medicines ran out about 1 month ago.

Then... I feel my body is too bad recently. Perhaps it might be from not taking the medicines, I thought.
I could go to work, but it's just a little hard for me.... Such a day continued.
Today, I called the hospital.
And I told that my medicines ran out and I can't go there for a while.
I asked her to send to me the medicines.
The staff of the hospital said to me,
"I will send them, but you have to come 1 month later. OK???"
I agreed with her.
I thought, even if my body doesn't feel bad, it's important to take medicines everyday.
The disease is getting worse in the place that I can't see.

Tokyo

Today I had a meeting which was put off from yesterday to today.
Then I reported my research to my boss and discussed for 2 hours.
Maybe I may have to go to Tokyo for business trip at the middle of February.

I have been planning to go to Tokyo from 22th Feb to 24th Feb for months.
Thus, I may go to Tokyo over 2weeks.
The reason I go to Tokyo from 22th to 24th Feb is to get the license to teach English at elementary school.
In Japan, English is taught from junior high school, but the curriculum and system of education were changed.
English is to have to be taught at elementary school from 2011.
So I think the license will be more needed by the society.

I don't wanna teach just only grammar or idiom of English.
I wanna teach funniness or wonderfulness of English.
I think it's very wonderful to be able to communicate with people in all over the world.
So I wanna tell children the feelings such as fun, interesting and wonderful which are included in English.
