I'm F**kin' Perfect♪

I often humm :) while I'm working because they have been playing my favorite songs recently.


We can listen to songs from US Hit Chart stuff.
...I don't know exactly but I hear many current familiar songs...

And the music cahnnel has my favorite P!nk's songs, two of them♪

"F**kin' Perfect"... I love this song...

I think nobody's PERFECT.
Everybody makes mistakes. I do very often! :)
On the other hand, I tend to try too hard... I know "this is me"
But I get too hard on myself... sometimes :)

Then, if I feel there's nothing more I can do, I'll try telling myself
"You are fuckin' perfect to me!"

This is a good solution♪ It works :)

I'm leaving for work sooon.
This is the beginning of a week, Monday and the end of a month,,, I'll have another busy day!
I'll work hard humming "fuckin' perfect~♪"

今夜は飲み会、これから仕事

Good morning!

Yes,,, this is very good morning on weekend here in Hiroshima♪
Nice weather again :) Seems it's gonna be another warm day!

I wish I was off and could go out today but I have to go to work...
And I'll join a farewell party tonight.
The party is not for my friend, it's for a person at work.
So... I don't know if it's gonna be a big fun.
But I'll work hard looking forward to having great chilly beer after work♪

It's a beautiful sunny day outside!
If you are not working today, you are lucky :)
Please enjoy the nice weather and have a good weekend!

daydream...夢見る昼休憩♪

It is so warm today!
I came out of work during lunch break because I had to go to a post office.
And I felt WOW!
It seems like summer is coming soon. One of my English teachers told us about an expression "the T-shirt weather"
Absolutely, I don't need a jacket in this weather♪ aah... longing for the summer time already... I'm thinking about sitting at a nice open air cafe... should be near the water like a river or a beach... feeling the sunshine and breeze...
drinking beer♪
Well, my happy daydreaming time's over!
I gotta go back to work in a few!

Black Russian な夜



☆Girls' Night Out☆

We, girls love eating, drinking, chatting at a nice place.

I went out with my friend last night.
We had dinner at a Japanese Izakaya restaurant... enjoyed food and Japanese sake :)
Then we moved to a bar for some more drink.

I always have a good time when I go out with her♪

Boys, do you wanna know what girls are talking about in their JOSHI KAI?
Well... lots of GOOD STUFF, basically! haha!

CHEERS!

朝 RUN! いいねぇ~♪


Another beautiful morning♪
The 2nd day of my 3 day off started with running!

This is my running course.
Running here along the river in the morning is so nice.

green grass (more green in summer time!)
pretty flowers, a family of ducks, othre waterfowls,,,
and nice fresh morning air!
I've ever seen a tiny snake too♪

I went running around 8 to 9 o'clock today so I didn't see many people.
If go earlier like at 7, I'll see much more people... I mean the elderly walking for their health or walking their dogs.
Some of them recognize me then we say "Good morning!" to each other and chat a little bit sometimes :) Thst's nice.

Because I see the elderly, I call my morning running "silver-kai" lol

I ran 3.6km and it took me 25minutes. I guess it's kinda slow so... it's more like jogging :)
I was gonna go more but my legs were saying "don't try too hard! just save some for later!" lol
... right, my legs were getting tired so I stopped.
I hadn't run for a long time so I think I did pretty good job for the first time♪ I'll keep trying and I'll do better♪

But I decided to do my stuff here.
There are many things I need to do at home.
Because I've been busy, I haven't done anything to my room... it's getting messy! ...I don't like it.
I need to make my place nice and more comfortable.


So,,,
I'm gonna clean my room today!
All the windows open ...fortunately,I don't have hay fever :)
Enjoying the sunshine and playing nice music♪


Oh, I gotta get my spring clothes ready too.

書くこと無い日もあるわ…でも appreciate it!

So...

Sometimes I got nothing special to post here!
Today is the day. I don't think of any... lol

What I did today is...
I met a bank person and talked to my insurance company before work,
had a busy day at work and finished work at 20:30...

Now I'm writing here having some drink and listening to radio iTunes.

My day has passed peacefully.
I appreciate it.
Nothing very special or exciting has happened to me but I have my confortable room and I'm having a relaxing time there.
Thank you for my good peaceful day,
I hope I'll have another good day tommorow again!

でね、、、とくに書くことが無い日もあるわけで、今日がそんなかんじ。何も思いつかん…(笑)
今日したことって、仕事前に銀行さんと保険屋さんの用事をして、20時半まで今日も忙しく仕事。
で、いつものように一杯飲んでiTunesでラジオながしながらここを書いてます。
私の一日は何事もなく、無事終了。ありがたく思わないと。
特別なことはなくても、心地の良い自分の部屋に居場所があって、のんびり過ごせてるもん。
無事に過ごした一日に感謝して、明日もまた良い日になりますように!

そのひとくちが!…HAPPY☆

When I leave work at 20:30, I'm always ready to eat!
I know I shouldn't have snack then because I'll have dinner later at home.
I shouldn't feed myself so much. I don't wanna be bigger! ...But,
Snack just after work makes me happy all the time♪ Well, I guess I'm healthy enough! My diet policy is
"Eat a lot and exercise a lot!"
No problem for the first part EAT.
But I've been to lazy to do exercise...
I often went running in the morning last summer. I used to run at least 3.5km before work and 7km on dayoff. ...alright, I'll start running again!
When? ...next week, maybe! :)

Nagarekawa 歓楽街walk



When I was younger, I used to go out almost every night!
I was not a party animal but I did like to go drinking with my friends♪
Now, I don't go out so much because I'm getting more mature
...or older!


This is a picture of Nagarekawa area in the afternoon.
Nagarekawa is the 歓楽街 in Hiroshima city.

Do you know what to call 歓楽街 in English? ...I don't!
I opened my dictionary and it said
"an amusent area" or "an entertainment area"

well,,, I'd say something more... 歓楽♪ :D for example,
"a drinking area" or "a party district"
It could be "a nasty zone" haha!
What do you think?


I kinda like to walk through this area in the daytime.
Because it looks so different from the one in the nighttime.
I don't see many people, everything looks dirtier in the sunlight and it makes the area look a little bit sad... but also relaxing if I imagine the area full of people later tonight♪
Seems like everything's taking a good rest for a while.

relaxing time ディアンジェロ聴こぉ



As soon as I finished work today,
I tought of this...

"Wine and cheese for relaxing night time!"

Oh yeah♪
Tonight is Friday night for me.
I'm not working tommorow~♪
I'm gonna have some drink and relax.

I put some pickles too. I bought bottled pickles but I'm interested in making some at home.
If I can make some by myself, I'll be able to eat whenever I want and as much as I want... :)

And... I need good music tonight. It must be something soothing with rhythm.
...hmm...
I'll listen to D'Angelo tonight♪
No matter how he's been doing recently (because I've heard some bad news about him...)
I just like his music.
Tonight is gonna be a wine & neo classic soul night♪
Sounds really relaxing, doesn't it?

***One more thing, I know what I need for my relaxing time. A nice wine glass! haha!***

MEGA苺で補給




Hey, look at this!

My grandma gave me big berries♪

It is hard to tell you how big they are in a picture.
But they really are big.
The biggest berries I've ever seen.

I bet they have a lot of Vitamin C.
Ladies, we all need it for our beauty♪

Speaking of Vitamin C,
I've heard that human bodies can waste a lot of Vitamin C in an instant when we get surprised or startled.
It could be as much as 100 lemons... that's a lot!
(I don't know if it's true but...)
Because just being shocked steals so much Vitamin C from our bodies, we gotta take much more C to stay beautiful!

Big berries were good♪ Sweet and juicy...
The season is coming! Let's have berries to live beautifully♪

見て見て!おばあちゃんがくれたでっかいイチゴ♪
写真では伝えにくいけど、本当にでっかいの。はじめて見るサイズ。
きっとビタミンCもいっぱいね。女子のみなさん、キレイのためにも必要よね♪
ビタミンCといえば…聞いたことがある、「ドキッ」「ヒヤッ」とした瞬間、人間の体からはたくさんのビタミンCがなくなるって。レモン100個分もの量らしい。(これ本当かどうかは知らないけど…)
ショックでそんなにCが奪われるなんて、キレイのためにももっと摂取しないと!
でっかいイチゴはおいしかった♪甘くてジューシー。
旬が来てるもん!イチゴ食べてキレイでいきましょ♪

commuter 妄想のひと時

The bus I cought to go home was full with more FAMILY people than usual tonight.
I turned on my iPod and was wondering what to write here today.

It usually takes me about 40 minutes to get home by bus.
I always spend my BUS time with listening to music, reading books,
thinking about a lot of stuff like work, English, money!, hobbies, people I know,,,

I sometimes fall asleep a little.
That is one of the good points of Japan. I guess Japan is still a safe country!

I also love to imagine good stuff that I want in my future!
haha... It might sound strange but I like it very much.
Thinking about something happy freely and positively never bothers anyone!
We can think of anything we want♪

This is how I spend my free time during my commuting time.
Thinking about good stuff is much better than thinking too much about bad stuff♪

lexile 読む練習

My TOEFL result by mail has arrived.
And I found something enclosed together...
"lexile mearure"I didn't know what it was.
It says "go to the web site and find books"They say the lexile measure will help me with finding a book that is suitable for my reading ability and reading practise.
Sounds good to me! Because I know I'm not good at reading and I definitely need more vocabulary!I went to their web site and put my TOEFL READING score into the measure...
I also checked some books. I want to practise with reading something interesting to me like...
Oprah Winfrey's biography...The lexile measure also shows me my reading level as a native English speaker.
They say I'm around 10 year old child level...I'm going to practise and grow up soon!

SUNDAY DRIVER 下手くそよ♪



"SUNDAY DRIVER"

I guess the word could be for me sometimes!


I got my driver's license more than 10 years ago,
but I didn't drive for... about 10 years!
Yes, I was a "paper driver" as we Japanese call.


A car is not necessary for my daily life.
I can take trains or buses to work and I like riding a bicycle.
But I always thought
"I want to drive anywhere I want... by myself!"
I just wanted to be more independent!


The problem is... I didn't have a chance to drive a car because I didn't have a car!
So I bought my very first (small and old!)car last year.


As I said, I don't drive to work. I drive only on my day off.
I don't drive too fast or too slow and never go recklessly, so I hope I don't bother people so much.
... I just think of adapting myself to the traffic all the time...

But honestly, I still feel nervous all the time!
I'll keep trying, safely and nicely... thinking like "be more independent, be more independent..."


「サンデードライバー」って、私のことかもって思うことがある。
10年以上前に免許をとって、そして10年運転せず、そうペーパードライバーだった。
仕事は電車とバスで行くし自転車も好きだし、実際のとこ必要なかったんだけど、でもいつもね、「自分で好きなところに運転していきたい」と思ってた。もっと自立したくって!
で、問題は車が無いから運転もできない、と。なので昨年、人生初の(ちっちゃくて古いけど)マイカーを購入。
ただ、仕事には乗って行かないから、休みの日だけ。スピード出さないし、トロトロもしてないし、無謀な運転なんてできない。あんまり周りの迷惑にはなってないといいんだけど… みんなの流れに溶け込むように… (笑) って心がけて。
でも正直いつも緊張する!安全に、良い具合に、がんばろう。「もっとしっかりしなさいよ…」って言い聞かせながら。

はじめてのHIP HOP



I, ROCKIN' WASABI, like Rock Music bacically.

When I was much younger, like junior high and high school time,
I always listened to Rock!
The sound had to be hard, heavy and loud to attract me♪

But a few years later, the rock chick had grown up.
I started to try other kinds of music in my late teens.

And it was only a few years ago,,,
I bought my very first HIP HOP music.
Busta Rhymes "The Big Bang" (2006)

Honestly, I don't even remember why I chose this...
Maybe I was interested in this album by watching on TV or checking at a store... I guess.
But I still like this album very much♪

Now I like much more types of music than before and enjoy it more.
MUSIC is what I need in my life♪

Well,,, I gotta do some work on my computer now.
I'll do it listening to Busta Rhymes tonight.

love drAg? アメリカで観たTV

Even though I'm not good at it, I like entertaining people.

I don't say funny jokes, I can't make people laugh much.
But I like showing what kind of person I am by my appearance, behavior and the way of talking.
I know not everybody likes my style. People don't need to agree with it all the time.
If some like it or feel something good with it, I'd be much happier♪

Being myself, being creative, expressing myself is fun♪

well,,, I've been talking a lot but it's not a serious stuff,,, haha.
I just remember a TV show I watched in NY last week and liked it very much.

"RuPaul's Drag Race" Check it out♪ And his official site HERE.

I like entertainment shows which have singing, dancing, performing, something stylish...
and sexy! Yeah, sexy is an important part!


得意かどうかはべつとして、人を楽しませることは好き。
冗談は言わないしおもしろいタイプじゃないけど、身なりや話し方で私はこんな人、と示すのが。
もちろんいつもみんなに好まれるなんて思っていなくて、もし、私を見て「いいな」と思ってもらえることがあれば、すごくうれしいなぁ♪私らしく、クリエイティブに見せられたら楽しい♪
まぁ、全然シリアスなことでもなんでもなくて(笑) 先週NYで観ておもしろかった番組を思い出したの。
私が好きなショーは、歌あり踊りあり、パフォーマンスありでオシャレで、、、セクシー!そうそう、セクシーなのは大事ね~!

Code 花言葉

My grandma sends me flowers on my birthday every year.
And the flower is always tulip♪
She knows what I like well. Tulip is my No.1 favorite flower.Because I was away from home on my birthday this year, I received the flowers yesterday.They are beautiful.
I like tulip because the image of tulip to me is bright, cheerful and spirited.
They say the codes for tulip are
"Declaration of Love" and "Passion"hmm... That's nice♪

back home 今日から仕事♪

Good morning!

I'm back home♪
I was gonna update here more often but I didn't have a lot of chance to do it with my old Japanese cellphone. I've been thinking about having a new one...

Anyway, it was already after midnight when I made home.
Almost 30 hour traveling... wow, that's pretty long.

I always love traveling but I was so tired of sitting in the same small place for hours.
As soon as I got home, I went to bed and fell asleep.
Sleeping in my warm blanket stretching myself out is heaven!
I slept well last night,,, I guess I was sleeping like I'm dead.
Everything's fine with me♪

"Welcome back to reality!"
I got myself charged well during my trip, I'm ready to go back to work today♪

long flight と 蕎麦

A long flight at the beginning of a trip is... OK because I'm always excited. But coming back to Japan is always a long... long flight.
Atlanta - Narita was a 14 hour flight.
Moreover, the airplane didn't leave Atlanta airport for 2 hours!
They said there was a problem with the entertainment system and it took them to check and fix the problem for 2 hours before departure.
So it was a 16 hour flight including delay.
I thought spending 2 hours only for entertainment system was ridiculous!
All passengers had to be seated while the problem was checked.
But I understood that later on.
14 hour flight with no music, no entertainment screen is... completely nothing! It would have made my flight way longer.
Plus, my flight was with on-demand screen, fortunately. I watched movies, dramas, TV shows and enjoyed music too.
Then... I arrived at Narita.
There war 2 hour delay.
...I missed my connection flight to my town, Hiroshima.
So I'm on a shinkansen now...
Shinkansen will take longer to get to Hiroshima.
But let's see the bright side now♪
The airline is going to pay for my shinkansen. And I had a time to have a quick dinner at Tokyo station.
I watched an American TV show during my flight. The show was about Japanese cuisine♪ What interested the most was Japanese soba.
I really felt like eating Japanese soba.
I was lucky, I found a soba restaurant at Tokyo station.
Of course, I walked into the restaurant with my big baggage and finished quick soba dinner. It was good!
I'm going back to Hiroshima now... feeling full and happy♪

Atlanta アトランタ空港

Already... Time goes so fast!
I'm heading for Japan now.
It was snowing ...a lot in New York state. TV was saying they were having a historical snow storm. It really was. Snow everywhere, everyday!
I was kinda excited though because I never have a chance to be in such heavy snow in my town, Hiroshima! It was a great experience to me.
But I was worried a little because I heard news of delays and cancellations of flights last night. I was wondering if I can go back to Japan on 4th.
Well,,, if I can't make it... that's OK because I can stay in the States longer♪ But my work... I definitely need to go back to work on weekend!So... now I'm waiting for my flight to Tokyo here in Atlanta. My first flight was on time. I could came out of stormy New York States. Everything is smooth so far.I had a good vacation time in New York. I wish I could stay longer... but I'm leaving for Japan in an hour.
I hope I'll have a good flight again!
