Long time no see you

If you vist my blog, sorry for the silence.
I was caring my blogs but coudln't post updfates.
It doesn't mean that there have not been aything new around me,
i just didn't post.

The updates in my job.
The plan to work abroad was still postponed and even I wasn't told any schedule for that. I'm frastrated with it. If my companay really has the will to send me abroad, They should let me know that otherwise I will have less time for preparation for it.

The updates in my life.
I became an aunt last month. My sister got a baby girl. She is so cute but I'm sure I cannot have a baby now. I'm not meatured enough to be a mother. Someday I want my baby but only when I can prepare the appropriate condition.

Others.
I met a nice guy who is very positive. That is the thing I need but I think
it's more difficult to understand the person who has totally opposite character.
I think I'm negative at least rather than him. To underdstand opposite person,you need lots of conversation or communication with him/her. The process itself may be the precious thing when talking about growing the relationship but it also needs a certain of energy. So, the thing is that whether you have passion enough to take an action or not.

New flat

Since I moved to new falt, life has changed in some part.
There is no problem so far.
When I packed out my things I brought from previous flat,
I found some old memories. Memories stay there always and
remainds me the good time then. I missed the people in the
picture as well although I'm satisfied with current relationship.

Hope that I meet everyone in my album again to say how are you.
*this is not my flat.

Move current flat

I'll move my current flat in the begining of July.
If I move to new flat, it will take only 15 min to the office.

The new flat is located exactly facing on the business area
so It gives me good access to business but not ralxing feeling,
I guess. But it will be OK. I'll manage somehow.

Now I still work using English but the trainng plan to work in US
will be postponed until the business in my company goes well.
This is a thing. Tha's why I don't like to leave my life to the
company which changes the plan offten. Yes, shoudn't complain about it.
but this is sure I'm about to lose what I really want to do now, also
in the future. picture book author.....still I'm thinking of it.
but now is not the time to be serious on it. I need more experience.

I'm sleepy now......good night.

Financial crisis

Financial crisis hit on my wallet as well as the current economy!


......I pack my lunch every day. I'm too lazy to make wonderful lunch box
then I bring a rice ball and boiled egg for lanch.
I always have lunch with colleagues but today I didn't since
she was not in the office because of the meeting in other building.
As I quikly finish my lunch and go for a walk outside.

I wish I could wear sports shoose not the shoose with heal.
My shoose were not so high but still they are not for walking.

I got depresed deeply now it is also because of two of
my colleague in front of my desk are absent this three days
I heard one of them got a heavy tasks in his job.
I am a person who easily are influenced by the situation
happened around me, so what I thought was
"Job is heavy for everyone".

May is called as "the Month of Sick". It is said that
May is rainy and clouded season that caused sickness
for the feeling of the people who potentially has
something which can appear as the sense of despression.

Recently I talk with a guy who is the man of positive.
He never says negative things. That is the reason why
I respect him.

I want to go for a trip......
I know that is only the escape from the reality but
this is the mistery of human who desire differences
apart from ordinary days.


Next month I'll got Bali island for my sister's wedding
That would be a short trip taking paid holiday for 3 days.

By the way, how is the pandemic in your country?
In Japan, the mass media heavily broadcast the news of the flu
occured originated in Mexico last week. I even saw the poster
in my office that says "Wash your hand to prevent the flu".
Hey, can I take the flu and don't not have to come to the office?;)

It became hard to find the meaning to stay in the office
Company is the organization which has will to move by itself.
There is small space to use personal theory there. Everything is
decided by the decision of executives.

Today I am sincerely sorry for reader to read the negative story
so, please get well with the movie below.

2009年5月17日日曜日

Haha

How many mistakes in my english spelling in previous posting?!
Come on, it is uncountable... yes, a lot of mistakes!
I'm too lazy to correct all mistakes going back previous posting
one by one. Anyway it is not the thing to be proud of but
Actually there is no problem because this is the place for me
to post anything I feel. Here is not the place for serious job.

I know I have to improve it someday
but I often feel language is only a tool.
I am not good at explain something even in Japanese
and always fail to make friends understood what I'm thinking.
If I have many mistakes in my mother tangue,
SO WHAT if I mistook other language.

Anything won't be changed in the world because of my
misspelling...haha....

Dear reader, Please accepet my aplogies for frustration with reading
my blog.....

This is for sure I need exersice because
I don't have chance to exercise thesedays.

Tennis
Kendo
Valley ball
table tennis
bowling
foot ball
base ball
jogging
walking

what else?

Fight

will you fight even you know you will lose?
will you fihgt only the fight you will win for sure?
will you fight if needed?
Doing something more is always better than less?

anyway today is friday. I won't think of fight
during my lovely weekend.

Girls

It would be highy appreciated if I become 10 times
more beautiful when I get up next morning.

I highy reccomend someone to come to me
and give magical stick to change my cloth
to latest Paris collection fashion with one stroke.

You can tell me the way to be loved by
husband even if I'm getting older.

People says time is money.
I say sweets during sliming exercise is happiness.

Boy loves girls.
Girl loves cosmetics.
So Boy loves cosmetics.

(The girl appears in the video is acutally, BOY!!
you may not believe me, but she is truely HIM! All Japanese people
are surprized.)

Woman is not originally woman.
Woman become true woman by effort to become woman!

Child

Recently I'm more interested in children.
I think this is because more people starts to prepare the
marriage(includes my sister).

Oneday I thought what I 'll do teach somethig to my children.
It is said that when you scold children, you needs to provide
them alway the reason they are scolded . Namely "Why".
But I have a question. What can I tell the reason to scole
if the children is just beging to catch few words?
resons are always has logic that needs at least 3 words
such as subject, verb, object.
What can I do if the scolded child can picked up only
subject?

will you say that there is nothing to be scolded for the
childeren who has just picking up the words?

If the scoleded children can understand the logic
why they are scolded, this is the case which we have
to be more carefull I think.

which is the best answer?
-Don't do XXXX, Or you will lose friend and be alone all your life.
-Don't do XXXX, Or Mam will hate you.
-Don't do XXXX, Or you will be arrested.
-Don't do XXXX, Or your loved one will be sad and cry.
-Don't do XXXX, Or you will lose your dignity.

how to scold children would be a topic I think deeply
when I have a child.

Creating a person is besides the responsibility.
I myself don't think to be enough to have children at this moment.
Firstly I think I have to have my own answers more to tell them
my children.

As for having children, Unlikewise usual girl,
I have never dreamed about it. I don't know why but
about this topic, I'm rally realistic as I usually
don't adopt realims in my life as fas as I recognized.

I guess this is because I myself having trouble to
manage by myselves so basically I might think
having one more person to manage, it would be hard.
But I beleive when I meet someone I feel to have the
children with him, I will know the special feeling
and expectation to have chilren. anyway that must be
a big event in my life for sure.

I want my children to grow having thier caracter
colorful. people shold have what only they have thier own,
that should be kept in thier life not being invated anything.
What parents can teach children will be very small,
only something very basic thing as indivisual.
Time to share with children is short if we count thier
whole life, so phisically there is not so many time
to teach something to children anyway.

Children will meet many people and some of them
affects children a lot. but the affection would be
happend becasue the children is the children.
if other children, he won't be effected by the same
thing. I short, what they are influenced is happening
because they have the sence to be influenced by their own.
it would be something they are having natually.


I want to paly frisbee with my children.

Fairly tale of Japan from ancient time

Like the story of Adam & EVE,
Japan also has a story how the country of Japan was born.

I read the book and found the interesting point.
The story how Japan was born is full of wonder for me.

The story has hidden gender issue, unique concept for god,
irony, etc.

For example, here is a part of the story

------------
There was a couple. the man is called "izanagi"
the women is "izanami".
They tried to bear Japan to meet each other
coming from different direction each other.
Then Izanami talked to izanagi at first when
they meet. can you imagine what was happen then?
Yes, some island was born when izanami talked to izanagi.
But the thing is that the iland was not enbough to
be a part of Japan. Meanwhile the island was not
worth to the place to live human. They failed to
creat Japan.
Izanagi and izanami again work on bearing Japan,
This time, Izanagi tallked to izanami fist when
they meet coming from different direction.
Then they succeeded in having proper islands
which deserve to be a parts of Japan. Consequently
They could creat the country of Japan.

----------------------

Why?
Why the creating Japan was succesfull when men talk to women first?

Actually this story of Japanese Genesis is written in
7th century under political purpose of a emperor at that time.
To prove that the emperor follows god, he needs the story
people can believe.And people will obey the emperor if they
recognize the godhood of emperor.

It is not difficult to imagine there have already been an idea of
gender in 7 th century in Japan because the job function for
each gender has already divided clrealy then. As usual, man works outside
and women inside at home.
But I wasn't sure that even there was the differnce in job function between
men and women, the gender issue hadn't so much focused as that affect the
Japan genesis story even it's created by political issue. This is because
we japan had god the female emperor in ancient times so I thought
Japanese basically has the idear of gender equality.

Or, the izanagi and izanami story just shows women is prettier
than they aggressively approach men?;)))

how do you think?

Watching movie

I haven't watched any movie for a long time
but I saw a movie last day.

You will find the most smart guy in the world in the scene below.
If you were him, what would you do to correct 100,000 arrows within 10 days?



Key to win the war is always where ordinary people tend to have forgot.
And lose temper causes mistake in important decision.

Move to new flat

I'm planning to move to new flat where is near
my office then I will be able to wake up later than now.

Cuurent falt is OK but far from office.
I don't come back home not so late at night these days
but I would like to move.

Business days

I realized that recently I'm always waiting for weekend
on week day. Eeven from Monday.
It is Wednesday that I feel that I can stand 2 more days to weekend.

I don't know form when I start to thik this way.

G.W

There was abig holiday in the middle of May in Japan.
I went to Nagoya, where TOYOTA's HQ is located.

Nagoya is the place of good food.
I had to be careful not to gain weight.

My mohter kindly sent me a picture above from the garden in my home!

These days my job function slightly starts to sift more like public relation such as
press release, support to organize the events. they are actually fun for me because I can see many thing in wide perspective. I thought I 'm a person who should consentrate on one thing because of the simple structure of my brain(?!). Now it will be good chance to develop my brain.....! Then, please BLOOM my brain like the tulip and encounrage people just by being there!!

2009年4月9日木曜日

European joke

Yes, I don't understand European joke well. Why I'm sayin this is
because a colleague in Netherland gave me a mail putting some joke
below in the mail in which we discussed serious topic.

I somehow replied to him with not skillful phrase I'll how he will commnet on it.

If we talk about communication, As my personal opinion,
Japanese can be one of the worst citizens to handle joking.
This is because our geographical history. As you may know Japan has isolated
from other continents from the ancient time. Also it is remarkable history that
Japan has a history of "sakoku", which leterally means chained/closed country by our selves rejecting the communication with other countries.that was because the persons
controling politics in Japan were afraid of being invated by others as some religional wars happened and it influenced japanes citizens to grow a personality
which was not convinient for shogun to control them.


It seems we tends to be isolated when we faced on difficulity.
If I think about myself, I more or less can understand it.
Maybe the poerson who really feel sympathy to the idea of isolating
while being in difficult situation will be "hikikomori" which is now
"hot" social topic in Japan.

what is hikikomori?
hikikomori means persons who is doing everything in his room by being feeded by
parents(for persons living alone offten use online order from PC and have the food from delivery staff)and don't make any single step out from thier own room or home.

......hey, hey, see your potential in wide open space?
If they can do it, they already had done it.
Comlex matter lies under any situation and condition surrounding people.
can't say anything on it, proberbly personal matter for each person.

----------------------------------------------------
Quick dicision! Quick action!

F(Friend):Oh, is it express station?
I(Miki):yes.
F:oh, ...it could be nice to go to Nagoya(The cisty where TOYOTA headquater is located)
I:maybe
F:shall we go?
I: why not?
(10 sec, 22:00 PM, Saturaday night)

we counted the fee to go to Nagoya.

F:...God! too expensive than expected!
I:impossible to go with our money we have now!
F:nnn...wanted to go
I:how about Atami(The city of Spa)?
F:Sounds good, check the train schedule.
I:15 minuites to go.
F:Run, Miki! we need snack and drink before getting on the train.
It's trip!

Rush to a shop, grab the chocolate&cookies and tea.

In the train;
I:We will reach Atami 0:00.
F:Where will we stay?
I:No idea. let's search the hotels in Atami by using internet with our mobile.
F:I found several hotels.
I:Good, let's call them one by one.
F:Ok.

Calling......Is there any room for tonight?Sorry but it's full today.
Ok. Thank you  × 10 and more


I:It's Saturday. I have forgot this is the day of the week which is most
busiest time for hotels.
F:Yeah, but we are already on the train to Atami.
I:Of course we can't get out from train in any station.
F:See the out side of window, less light apears as we are close to Atami.
I:I know Atami is in a countyside to relax in the spa.
F:let'S keep on calling other hotels.
I:Be positive, It'll be alright.


No hotels having rooms. We arrived at Atami station.

F:Let's talk to train staff near the ticket gate.
GATE: Here is the list of the hotels around.
F:Thanks
I:Anyway let's go with this list.
F:It looks like one of the hotel listed. let's ask
I:why not

HOTEL FRONT:We have only one room left and it is delax room.
It charge you 14500 yen usually but it is late of the day,
We serve you it with discount for 10500 yen!

It was discounting eaquals to that we saved two way ticket from Tokyo to Atami.
In other words, Much cheaper hotel fee than we expected.(10500 yen is not really
cheap in terms of hotel charge but if we consider the situation we are in, I have to
say it was more than reasonable to pay 10500 yen for hotel)

So, If people decide to do something, it is the begining to have
something positive, excited, sence of corporation....and,
warm roof for stay the night! keep your body and brain freash to
be active!

-----------------------------

Bad internet connection is not still recovered.
That dismotivates me a lot.
I am only a person to repair it but not actively work on it.
what do I have to do?......Read above!;)
how lazy I am! Basically no excuse for this but
I only pointed out this; If someting is effective (connective for internet?)
sometimes, people get used to it!!

2009年2月8日日曜日

Posting less

I haven't posted for almost more than 3 weeks.
It was because bad connection to the internet and
no ernergy to recover it.

Recently I try to finish my work before 18:00 every weekday.
Then what I have to do is to think how efficiently I work during a day.
I prioritize my tasks and time management is also needed.
most of my work is related to English but I really feel I need more Japanese skill
to strengthen my English. People understand and recognize things in thier mother tangues.

What makes me confidence is that I almost achieved my purpose which is losing my weight by 5kg. The plan goes well, currently I am enjoying my body is lighter than before. More motivation for fasion. ....looks like teenager I am but still it is fine to enjoy something.

I have to get at least one certification by the end of March. This is just a remider
for myself.

Too curious

Time to time I really search for what I can be interested in.
It seems I am a person who can't stand without having anything entertain me.
At least I wanna feel something which LOOKS LIKE interesting.

Today I do net surfing though my mobile also PC, but nothing could catch my attention.
Fashion?-What I want to wear? how do I want to look like?
Concert?-Of which artist? which genre?POP, R&B, ROCK?
Amusement park?-What atractions? with who?
Sports?-winter sports? --no way, too cold to think about it
Drinking?- alchorl doesn't really work for me basically,
Parting?- for What?
Museum?- mmm...not really
Travel?- not bad, to where?
Painting?- Lazy to prepare matrerials,
BLogging?- ye...s, now writing...but.
Karaoke?- be in cold. very bad voice now.
Restaurant?- I want to experience really high level restaurant with great view. but not now.

I don't lke the status which I don't know what I want to do.
I feel energy inside me but nobody tell me how I release it. It is only me to
make the situation better as this is all concerned my self.

What make me weak is uncertin thing. It is also source of exiting but basically it totally depends on how you take it. I personally am thinking of where I'll be in next 6 months and unconciously start to prepare for it. -I hesitate to make any promise with friends in next 6 months for example-

Communication gets deeper as time goes and also it gets difficult to stay without it.
but how difficult to stop myself to go forward something what I'm interested in.
Think about the future, don't touch the forbidden apple.

many poeple, many thoughts.

I'm only one as you are, poeple usually don't see the context behind the fact.
Nor do I. Really easy to lost the aim, and for what I have aim. what is the meaning to stick to do something? who knows, you know. I know!

Yes, I get back to myself know. time cunsuming time. but I needed it.

Happy new year 2009/ Japanese pop music

I wish you a wonderful year 2009!

Happy that I welcomed 2009 in my hometown with families after
not seeing them for some time.
Today I introduce this years best singers "EXILE"
They are seven people with two singers and five dancers.
What makes them cool is their soft and gentle voice and
atomosphere of adalt.

They seem to follow R&B style. I can say R&B is evolving the
main stream among young generation in Japanese music scene .

When talking about mens group, Janny's group is the most famous
organization having male stars. If you are a japanese girl
I'm sure you fall in love with one of Junny's stars at least once.
Janny's stars, they are also good entertainers in terms of dance and
songs like EXILE but biggest difference is sence of adalt.

Junny's stars have a role to take girls to dreaming world while they are performing
therefore the stage they create is marely based on reality. But EXILE shows reality to the audience. The proof for it is the fact that thier hit song is almost
describing tragedy of love affiar or hearbreak. One of their songs I posted below.

This video starts with short explanation of EXILE's activities in 2008 and you will
also find which generation and sex support them. Obviously females are more excited with EXILE than males. and the reporter in thevideo refers 40-50 year's old womens tends to become a fun of EXILE that is not common. But once I see the rylic of the song they sing in the video,I clrealy get the reason why they are polular in middle aged wemens. This is because the rylic is written from the view of a women who fell in love with a man already married to other women.
I don't think this reflects Japanese culture today but it should be true that there
was no singer steping in the field EXILE did, which means young males sing about middle-aged female's feeling with R&B style. I think ESXILE is marketing thier position well to survive in unstable music scene. As additional info, EXILE once belongs to the same campany as Ayumi-Hamasaki and Namie-Amuro who are leaders of japanese young people's culture. EXILE depertured the company now and handling their activities by their own so that one of the memeber's in EXILE is the President of "Company EXILE".




"Ti amo" seems like Latin or Italian...? I don't know
