50th anniversary

Dec. 27th was my mom’s birthday! She is already 50 year-old...i cant believe it, but she’s been in good health so far, so i hope she’ll enjoy a long life span (make it to 100) lol

Though we often quarrel over a trifling matter, she is the person whom i’ve respected. I don’t know how long it takes, but i want to be like her in the future. So i gave her some flowers on the day.



By the way, do you know one more 50th anniversary? Yes, Tokyo tower is also 50 year-old:-) I visited to see its beautiful sight. That was amazing!


I hope both will be shining forever...

park with friends

I went to Yoyogi park on Thursday with two friends. We love the outdoors, and often go to the park to play frisbee, volleyball, and hula-hoop, even in winter lol I love park because it makes me refreshed. There are big sky, many trees, cute dogs and children, and fresh air, what’s more large large green grass. I love to lie down on the grass. Anyway so fresh! We enjoyed until after dark.
I know that friends always bring happiness to me:-)

book review

I bought a book named “道をひらく” written by Kounosuke Matsushita, who was a founder of 松下電器, and also is a charismatic leader still now though nearly 20 years passed from his death. So this is a very famous book among the business managers, so that’s why i read it.This is all about tips for life, job, and for national prosperity. All lessons are very simple but people tend to forget about. That must be a bible for me lol if you feel like it, please read!

lovely day

Today, as if i were in a fairly tale world…because two big trees which we saw in Rikkyo university were soooo fantastic! I’ve never seen such as warm and sweet trees. In addition, it was very silent and holy night. I just wanna say “thank you” to the date and you.



Also, i ate Xmas cake which my family received as a gift. That was so delicious and rich taste. I felt like “what a lovely day today”;-)

Romantic illumination

Hi, all! Xmas has come in three days! I love illumination in town, because that makes me excited:-) so today, i wanna introduce two illumination places which i went.


1)makuhari techno garden’s illuminatin
if you use Kaihinmakuhari station, every winter season, a big and long illumination arcade comes up near the station. And many office workers and students, including me, enjoy passing the street. This moment gives me power at end of the day.



2)Shinjuku, Southern Liths

This is much romantic, i think. Many big trees near Shinjuku station are decorated and attracts people. That was so romantic but sometimes our eyes are tired of too much lights lol

I think the most important thing is the person whom you go with to share the same view and the same time. Just two or more over is better than alone, of course! Lets enjoy happy Xmas!

Dec. 6th

Hi, all! By the way, are you tired of something? Or do you feel “i need rest...”? if so, i really recommend that you go to the place where is full of nature. 2 weeks ago, my heart was sooooo tired because of tons of work, job hunting, and so on…so i had decided to go to a nearby temple, which is famous for its autumn’s view. Here is the picture.
And there, to my surprise, ive experienced a spiritual feeling! It’s a little difficult to explain, so please imagine the TV program named “オーラの泉” if you’ve watched it. Anyway, what i want to say is ...

1) be honest to your heart
If you tired of something, or want to cry, want to rest, just do as you like. Don’t lie to your heart.

2) Use On/Off switch nicely
Im not good at taking rest, i mean im not able to use my private time when im so busy. So no matter how busy you are, always people need "off" time. Otherwise we are exhausted.

Use your private time nicely, and do a great job!

Japanese seasons

Hi, all! Recently, all trees are changing their color...i feel winter has come. By the way, which seasons do you like the best? In my case, fall is the best! Because this season has soooo beautiful colors! As you know, each has different image of colors. For example spring has pink (cherry blossom), summer has fresh green, and winter has white. But the most visual season is autumn, i think. It has yellow, orange, red, and green... so many colors are welcoming us. I feel lucky to be born as a Japanese...

Beginning

Hi, all! Thank you for coming my blog spot. This is the place which i want to tell something to you, visitors. Especially when i go somewhere or when i experience something, i want to write how i feel at that time. So please free to come, and enjoy:-)
