2007-07-03T23:09:00.000+09:00

I moved to new blog.
Please see http://carryon61.blog75.fc2.com/

Back here

2007-07-02T00:52:00.000+09:00

Finally I came back here. My pc didn't work at all and I called a support center but they told me "This pc need to repair but it costs too much that you can buy new one."
I thought so too and today I got new one!!
It was unexpected thing.
Anyway I can stick with posting here.

My purpose is still vague

2007-05-07T22:26:00.001+09:00

The other day, I had dinner with my senior at nice restraunt.We had a talk about our future. Now I study English and she studies Chinese. Actually, China doesn't give me a good image. I haven't been there but I heard many bad stories of China. Especially, the air is very duty and it is visible. However, she loves China. Her take for China that is In China, they need to exert themself to success thier life. For example, they can speak English , Japanese and another lauguagea even if they haven't been to there because they do thier best in homeland. She did see their shape while she were staying there. We are very rich and wealthy but we are lack of somehing. We take it for granted that our daily life is usual but not in China. They have to more study and more work. She respects them. That's why she loves China.

I reconfirm that she really loves China. I am plannnig to go to Canada now because I wanna change my life. She also think of it. However she wants to stay with Chinese to motivete herself with respect to them. My purpose is still very obscure. I reconsider what is purpose of going to Canada.

how to be involved in developing country

2007-05-05T22:00:00.000+09:00

Today I discussed developing country with my English teacher through Angelina Joli.
She is a famous actress and marital relationship with Brad Pitt.
They have a daughter and three orphans. Three orphans came from developing coutry where she went to. But I wonder what is measure for her to choose children. There are many children and eveyone wants to be well-off. She just select one child there probably. Every children have right to be choosen.
Also, my English teacher said to me, "They have their daughter and their love might lean her."
I totally agree!! Equality is very difficult and orphans feels difference.
So If she wants to support developing coutry, it's better to donate money.
Money would use for everyone in developing coutry.
I hope so.
But She is a one of great person and continue her great work.

Charismatic artist at makeup

2007-05-04T00:05:00.000+09:00

One of my friends, she works for a cosmetics company. Everyday she makes customers up for selling. The other day, I met her and she made my face up. It turned me into different person.
I am interested in makingup. But Usually very simple. Rather than it's simple , I don't have good skill for makeup. So she is a good teacher for me and "Charismatic artist".
However, according to her, she gets into trouble with making customer up.
For example, a customer is sitting in front of her but she doesn't have any idea for making up and she thinks "how to make her beautiful? Some of them are not beautiful and not attractive.
I thought it is her job but sometimes, her work is at at standstill.
When a famous make up artist came to her shop from France, he guessed Japanese don't understand French so he talked asperities to himself " but unfortunately, she can speak French and irritated her. What a bad situation !! and he seemed to be fired.
Making other people beutiful is so hard. The problem is whether it's nice or not for them.

Cutoff line between Friend and love

2007-04-30T23:38:00.000+09:00

The other day, I ate out with my collegues. My one of collegues brought a topic up.
She is wondering about her and her boyfriend. She thinks their relationship is like just good friends. Because they can share everything , they don't need to bear anything.
For example, when they walked on the street and she finds good-looking guy and say to him "He is a cool". Normally, it's offensive to him because she is into another man. However, he agrees to her opinion. So, she thinks about lover and friends. They have been having good relationship but he is never jealous for her opinion. She feels whethere he loves me or not.
I listened to her talk and I think he just wants to shere anything with her and there is no boundary between her and her boyfriend. I think that's great.
But Love is difficult with a captal "D".

Long time no see

2007-04-18T21:56:00.000+09:00

I hadn't been writing this blog for long time.
Actually, my PC didn't work that's why.
Lately, my life have changed, as below.

・Moved to another office where is very near from my house.

・Met new people

・Person in change of new work

I think these things are affecting to change my carrier. I have to more learn my work and save acknowleges. At previous office was unfortable for me so, I didn't have motivation for work but now I try to be best. And when I live oversea, I wanna work at similar work.

What a woderfull Place.

2007-01-29T00:19:00.000+09:00

Today I went to Universal Studio Japan with my previous collegues!!
I live here for more than 2 years but I had't been to there. I wasn't interested in a theme park.
But my collegus planed to go to there for me. Thank you so much.
We planed to meet at 13:00. But I got up at 12:20!! I jumped out of bed.
Today was holiday so I wanted to put on cute clothes but I didn't have enough time and even I didn't have making up time. So I just put on mascara.
I met them and I went into USJ. I was so excited because it was like USA and Canada.
It reminded me of USA and Canada.
Today I tried roller coaster. But I don't like it. I rode two roller coasters but I almost died.
And we had meal but all of those are so expensive. I ended up eating a piece of pizza and rice balls. After that, we went shopping but I didn't buy antyhing.
Anyway, I had great time with them and my first USJ was wonderful. I wanna go to there again. Next time I never try roller couater.

Happy Birthday To Me

Reading new book

2007-01-23T01:00:00.000+09:00

Today I finished reading a book "Can you keep a secret?". This book talks about secret of main character. It's realistic story and I sympathized with her.
And I enjoyed reading English book.
So I bought new. "Frongs of our Father". This is about the War in Iwo-jima.
This is more difficult than previcios book.
But I will keep reading and I feel acheavement!!

Why so expensive?

2007-01-21T23:24:00.000+09:00

Today I had a talk about working holiday with councelor. I could choose many way but now I think about Working holiday in Canada. This program I can work and study so, I can enjoy what I want. Sure, I will go to Language school for 6 months and after that I will find a job. So, mainly I study English. I try to make friends with local people and study Canada culture.
However, the councelor told me that it costs $2400 for support. Just only support!!
I know working holiday visa is for free and I can book air tickets. If I have trobles, then I want to rely on thier support. Only in case of trouble...
What do you think of this support? This agency is really big company but this is like frand...

Go to Russia

2007-01-20T21:44:00.000+09:00

One of my collegues,she left my company.
Because she will go to Russia!! Her husband works there but she didn't follow him when he went. But she made dicision!!
I guess her husbands need her. I really envy her. I want to leave Japan for soneone. There is no a man...
Anyway I hope she will enjoy Russia.

Uncomfortable place

2007-01-18T00:10:00.000+09:00

As you know, I started working at another office but I am feeling really bad.
I was surprised that new peers don't support me. They think about thierselves.
It's a given that we should support each other.
I just start taking charge of new job without takeover and it's an important company so I feel big pressures. I don't know how to do it but they just do thir work and it finished, they go home soon. I can't believe their acting and I wonder if I can keep working here.
I just endure this or drop this?

2006-12-22T00:09:00.000+09:00

From next week, I move to another office. Now I am so nervous and I am concerned about many things. Also I don't wanna go. I like my collegues at present office and we have been doing our best each other.
What on earth makes me do it? Everyday I try not to make mistakes and I work controling my anger. Someone told me this is a big chance for promotion.
I like to learn new stuffs but I want to do it with present collegues.
This is One of selfishs or one of claim?

Korea trip

2006-11-12T19:38:00.000+09:00

Begenning of this month, I went to Korea to meet my korean friend.
We met in Canada and went on same language school. We had really exciting days.
First off, I arrive at Incheon airport and I was wating for my fiend but she was too late.

Arriving at Incheon airport, she was in a bus on her way to the airport.
I waited for her for 30 mins. No way!!
But we met and talked a lots. Really long time no see for 2 years.
Now she works for publisher as a fashion magazine editer. So she is awfully fashonable.

After we talked, we went out and we met her friends who study Japanese.
Their Japanese is really great!! I am happy that they are interested in Japanese stuffs.And I was taught many korean things.

Next day, We went to the racecourse and bet money. Yeah, finally we pulled off some good things at the race.
We got money for our dinner. And we had great dinner and after that we went to Seoul tower and saw great view!!
As you can see, there was really wonderful and brillant view. I was really moved.

Last day, we didn't do anything but I missed my korean friends!!
Thanks so much and very nice to meet you!!
I wanna more write but I wanna sleep. I will write soon.

Retirement

2006-10-25T23:48:00.000+09:00

Today, I read an article about retirement.
Many company force us to retire when we hit 60 years old.
It makes us happy or stressed...each person feel something about retirement.
One thinks the secound life will start and another think what did you do for my company?
This auther say that a retirement policy is lazy human source practice.
The retirement is important for yourger manager to move through the ranks.
However, it's kind of a way of avoiding different conversations.
I completely agree!! Money is important for living but working is not for only money. People loves their company,so we could keep working in same company for 40 years. They have great experiences in years. We should learn many things from them.
Since I work, I think experience is all sometimes.
So, Retirement practice needs change. How they can keep staying in company?

Maya's today 10/23

2006-10-03T00:49:00.000+09:00

Today, New face came to my company. She sits in front of me. She is 1 year younger than me. Recently, I am really resposive to human relationship. Because lately, I can't understand one of my best friends. She lives near my house and we used to spend time. I have't met her for a long time. I met her recently, and she has changed. Her personality and her friendship is for getting a boyfriend. Now, I don't have boyfriend but I can focus on studying English and enjoy with my friends.
That's why I watch people very well. I don't have phobia about people. I am just careful about people.

Remember

2006-10-01T23:14:00.000+09:00

Today, I rent an album from my friend. Do you know "Kobukuro" that is contist of 2 people, famous and great singers. Their soungs are about life, love and so on.
I heard one of thier love songs. It reminds me of my ex-boyfriend who were during high school students. We had been together for 2 years. Actually, It's regretable to me that I broke up with him. I should have had to try to do my best and I should have heard what he thought. I focused only myself. I knew he loved me too much but I couldn't answer.
Recetly he got a job as a nurse. He is getting forward to his next stage now.
I hope he enjoys his work.

Short Journey

2006-09-19T23:12:00.000+09:00

Our 3 days holiday was done. I went to Fukuoka to visit my friends during this holiday. But unfortunetely, a typhoon hit there just then. But I was so excited to meet my friends.
First day, I arrived at Hakata stataion. My friend came to there and we ate out at a western restaurant. Our stomach turned to be completely full!! We couldn't move.
And we went to her house. We just talked a lots and watched TV.
Secound day, we went out and had a lunch together with her boyfriend too. At first, I felt that I wondered if I was bothring them. But he is a kind and a gentleman. He is not a talkative but so funny. After lunch, My friend and I went shipping and bye him. I really wanted to get a new jeans!! So I tried many type jeans on until I was stisfied. Finally, I found a favorite jeans!! Next, I looked for hight heels pumps.
Recently, I like high heels. It makes me feel adults. And I could meet cool pumps.
After shopping, we watched a moive "Miami vise" that I wanted to watach it. That was really srilled and I was moved. Next time, I wanna watch "world trade center".
Literally, It is about "9.11". At night, we planed to eat out but we couldn't because typhoon. Stong wind and rain so, my umbrella was broken. And finally, our dinner was instant noodles soup. But not bad. This is one of memories. we ate and watched TV but there was power failar some times. So, I coudl't understand story.
Last day, I got up later than I expexcted. We had appintment with another friends.
When we were out of room, we were surprised. Everything was mess!! Natural phenomeno is really scared. We met our friends and had a lunch. This lunch was viking so we ate many things. My stomach would be surprised that I gorged. We talked a lots but they haven't changed at all. We talk about our school days. We used to play soft tennis so we got sunburn sufficiently. But now we make up and we love someone, surrounding has changed. I am sure that is a evidence of turning adult.
I can reassure that I have many good friends even we live far.
Everytime I miss them so much and I wanna help them when they get lost in their life.

You made me upset

2006-09-06T01:00:00.000+09:00

In Japan, we have "only women car" in the loop-line train for protecting women from molesters. I often get on it and when I'm on it, I am really relieved. Today, I was on it as usual and I was astonished that some men were on this car. And I heard their strange chat.

Man 1:This is the only women car!! We need to change.

Man 2:We don't have to do it,look, it's not crowded and many seats are
vacant. We don't bother everyone.

What did you say? I didn't understand what he said.
Obviously,here is "only women car"!! This is a role that everyone knows.
He made me upset.
What do you think about this?

2006-09-03T15:38:00.000+09:00

Every weekend, I have a English lesson and go to a gym. But that's all.
Somethimes, I meet my friends but we can't meet every week and besides, I hate spending money.

Big power failar

2006-08-14T12:26:00.001+09:00

This morning, there was big power failure in Tokyo. It happend that a crane hit power line and stopped current. So Trains and many stores didn't work. Fortunetely, it was in the morning for 2 hours. If it happend from the afternoon, it would be big occurence. A lot of people go out and get to trains. Tokyo is the main city in Japan so it make trouble in Japan.

Go back to hometown

2006-08-13T00:21:00.000+09:00

Now, I am in my hometown. Because it's Obon(Japanese) that is vacation and everyone goes back to hometown.
It is said that our ancestor come back to us and they are near water.
When they back to the other world, they want to take us to there. So we take notice that we never go to near water like the sea or the river when obon finishes. This seems to be like a rumor but this is ture I think. There are a lot of instances.
What I want to do here is meeting my old friends and playing soft tennis. I love it. When I was junior high school and high school, I used to be play soft tennis. I got many win and I was sellected varsity of Yamaguchi prefecture. I made many friends by soft tennis.

2006-06-13T01:05:00.000+09:00

Today, I heard sad story from my sister. Actually, one of her friends, same high school and my dad and his dad are working at same company. But He died by cardiac infarction this morning. I can't believe it. He was so fine and active. He failed to enter university that's why he studied hard for next. Why God took him to the beyond?

Economy effective

2006-06-11T02:52:00.000+09:00

The world cup is taking place in Germany now. I cheer Japan , England and Brazil. Today, I read the aticle about the World cup. This big event is said to be most profitable sporting event!! People go to Gemany to watch the game and people try to get the largest and clearest screen possible to watch it at home. So, a lots AVs are sold. Also drinks !! Watching the game needs drinks because people heat up. And Fans buy world cup related products. In Japan, we can buy them at Family mart.
That's why this event is big economy effective!! It's expected approximately 476 billion yen.
That's amazing.

I am into nail art

2006-06-11T01:53:00.000+09:00

Recently, I am into nail art. I bought several colour nail enamels. I imagine designs and I try to make it but it's defficult to have own way. Especially, I love pink so I often use it at base. Today's nail is pale pink and deep pink.
1. Paint pale pink on all nails.
2. Put dark pink on point the of nails not all.
That's it. This is so easy but colour of arrangement is so important. If make mistake, nail art is not beautiful.
I will challenge to use rhinestone.

I will move to new office

2006-06-03T17:11:00.000+09:00

My company will set up new office from July. And I will work there!! Now it takes 30mins to my office but, next office, It takes 1 hours maybe. But I don't wanna go. Some of colleges will move to new office together., though. Actually, One of colleges, he's has been on my mind. But I don't know whether I love him or not. He is so kind, atractive and adult. He is 27 years old. Recently, I often work together. He corporates with me well. I have not worked together with him. I knew his name and his fate but I haven't known his character. We go to the station together after finishing work. Sometimes we eat out after work. However, he will not move to new office. That's why I don't wanna move to there. I don't know what I should do...

Many friends are tired

2006-05-28T23:55:00.000+09:00

Recently, I met some my friends. But everyone are tired because of their work. Sure, I have trouble in my work but not to be tired like them. Finally, it hit me!! Human relations make them upset. When peopel want to estanblish friendly relations, it takes long long time, especially company!! We have to be resposible for own work so we have to deal with it surely. But human relations is harder than work. Partner doesn't get angry but I feel so. But I think that we always can't make much of others. Sometimes, it's waste time!! If I didn't do wrong thing, I believe my heart. How to control my feeling. I can do it, it's my personality but there is anyone can't do it. I reccomend reading book to them. I often read book about world, then, my problem becomes so small. There are many street children all over the world, but I have a house, money and family. I am so happiness peson. I appreciate all I have.
I am going off on a tangent!! what I want to say, just not to want them to think deeply. Take it easy!!

Seacret Meeting

2006-05-28T03:59:00.000+09:00

Friday night, I went to the bar with collegues after working. My collegues are 3 men(43, 28, 23)!! We use the same station so we have good relationship. I work together with 28 man who is so funny and observant of small things. For example, I changed my look, he told me "So good"!! A 43 man is so cool!! He advises us many things and he is also funny. He loves his family so much and he tells us about his children. A 23 years man, he is so kind and open-hearted.
We drunk too much but we chat seriously about our job. We never say things at the office, we talked and many things I knew for the first time. I am happy to hear that! I want to go again!

Congratulation!!

2006-05-28T03:26:00.000+09:00

The other day, I was invited engagement party by my English teacher. I was so excited. I listed to their speech and her boyfriend told us how to propose her. I can't help laughing but it's so romantic. I saw them, and I really came to want to marry!! When my boyfriend proposes me, I want him to make romantic scene and suprise me. I don't want expensive a ring and present.
Congratulation my teacher and your boyfriend.

Hope long your happy life.

Wonderful trip!!

2006-05-17T21:55:00.000+09:00

I was backed from USA. I had really good time and it mede me think many things. I have been to 3 foreign contries but this trip was most memorable. I met my friend who was my English teacher is Tierra. I stayed at her house and spent great time with her, her hasband(Mick) and her daughter(Amaya). Also we had some party with thier collegues and neighbors. Actually, I had a hard time cominicating with local people. But it was really good lesson. I knew a bit how difference speaking and writing.
I met her after a long time but she didn't change her personality. I was really glad to see that. I talked about my work...I work overtime almost everyday but I like what I do. She answerd me that Life is short, money is not important. Of course, I think so. Money is not all. Actually, since I begun working, I have thought my feature. I want to go to foreign country and want to work there. How should I do? I have been thinking of it. She advised me going to oversea. I decided that I save up money as soon as possible, and I enjoy my life. She is planning to travel around Asia with her family from August next year and for 10 months. Unbeliveable!! Why They can do it? She and Mick are lawyeies so I know they have a lot money. But for Japanese, it can't be!! If I did it in Japan, everyone would think me crazy. We take it for granted that we work everyday.
Oh!! I had really good experience. I follew her and I went to the court and saw trial that she sticked up for. I am proud of her!! I can't become lawyer and I can't be like her. She is so cool!!
I was suprised that there was a spanish interpriter because defendant can't speak English. I realized that there is different things a lots.
Near her house ,there is a beautiful park and I liked to walk around there. I had never seen such a great park. I spend unstressed time there.
Everyday, I played with Amaya. She is so cute 3 years girl.
We watched animetion "Dora" that is popular in USA everyday.
Before she goes to bed, she kisses me and says good night!!
So cute!! I want to have my kids!! At least 2 or 3 :) And I also met Amaya's friend Simon. He seems to be troublemaker. Once he cries, he can't stop crying easily. But he can speak both English and French. Because her mom is from Quebec, Canada. I went to zoo with them. I was really excited to watch animals. But Simon cried many.
Last day of trip, we had party with pezze and drinks. I met many new people and I liesten to many good stories. One of stories, in USA, one man can have many wives is legal!! I didn't know that. when everyone left, they told me "Nice to meet you and you have to come back!" I am really happy to meet them. I spent a lots money to go but it's worth!!
Thanksfor everyone and I miss you so much.

Yesterday, my sister told me that she played with friends after school. And I told her that "you have to go home by 11:30pm at the latest. But she didn't go home at 11:30pm. I was disgusted with her. So I called her cell and "What are you doing? What time do you know it is?" I shouted.
But It's not my sister...it's her friend. Oh my good!! And she said to me eimidly "Ayumi is in restroom now....We will bye soon". I asked my sister that was she scared me? and she answerd... Yes, she told me that your sister is scaring.

English lesson

2006-04-17T00:49:00.000+09:00

Every weekends, I take English lesson.
Yesterday, I took a lesson as usual and I understood grammar.
I hadn't been understanding how to use the past perfect and the present perfect since I was junior high school studnent.
Also, I don't know what diffrence between them is. But teacher said to me simply.
"keeping or not keeping"
It's really a short sentence but I satisfied about it!! That explains a lot.
I thought when I have question about English, I don't read English text anymore.
Asking teacher is shortcut!!
Recently, I don't have a lot topics and she will travel Thailand so we can't meet for 2 weeks.
I have to save story. Sometimes, I am annoied with me when I can't expalain well.
I need to increase vocabulary. I hope she enjoys herself in Thailand.

Graduation from College

2006-03-10T23:36:00.000+09:00

I graduated from College!! I spent really good time with my friends during 2 years.
I had met many peple and I had experienced a lot of things. I left my parents and lived alone for the first time in my life and I'm really grateful to my parents. I had to do everything by myself so that I had found and learned unknowing things.Sure, I had met new view of English.
Today I will write one of my memories during 2 years.
Most experiences changing me is what I went to foreign countries. I went to Canada, Australia and Korea. Korea is my first travel to overseas. As you know,Korea and Japan have problems related to our history. So, I was worried about going to Korea. If Korean find that we are Japanese, what they say?...But it's a futile worry. They are really kind and friendly. Talked to us from them.
I took esthetique at first time.
It makes us beautiful more and more if we take it every day,every week.
In Canada, I stayed for 1 month to go to language school and I could make many friends and felt several cultures. In my classmate, Korean, Brazilan, Chinese, Swiss, Mexican, Spainish. Everyone don't speak English well but we enjoyed. We introduced each culture, sometimes, we didn't understand each other but we could be good friends. We have been to keep in touch now.
In Austrilia, I go to there with my friend as graduation travel. I met many animals. Koala was really cute!! Great barrier leaf was so fabulous. I want to live Australia someday.
I went to only 3 foreign countries however its made me changed sence of values. These experiences made me stronger and gave me guts. If I didn't go to foreign countries, I wouldn't change anything and motivation wouldn't go up. Thank you so much!! Good luck.

Podcasts

2006-03-05T02:28:00.000+09:00

Do you know "Potcast"? It is like Radio and every morning I download it into my ipod.
I listen to CNN, NYT(NEW YORK TIMES) and MTV. CNN and NYT are about news. At first, I listen to CNN, of course I can't understand all so after that, I listen to NYT. Finally I figure articles out. MTV is about music so I check new songs.
80 persent of ipod users seem to use potcast mainly. This is really usuful. On the one hand, there is rumor that ipod series often break. Actually, my ipod broke so I applied to Apple for the reapair. Now it's OK. I don't recommend ipod but MP3 player is so good!!

It's worth than usual today. I went to the office in the morning and I was astonished at pile of works on my disk. It's real story. And I didn't have good idea that how to deal with them. And new person told me that what shall I do next? can I help you something?....actually it made me get angry. I know she is really good person but I paniced wildly. So then I wanted her to sit a chair silently. I admire her aggressive action but I was too busy to care about her...Finally I had lunch at 6pm it's like poor dinner.
