I have not posted for a long time... in some reasons...

A week ago, I found I am pregnant!

I am so excited, but a little worry about my new baby to grow without any problem.
Every morning and night I talk to him/her to be relax and grow.

Amazing!
I have worked on for almost 2 years to conceive, however, it did not work. I decided not to focus on making baby because I realized I have other things before having another child.
Then, I found my period was pretty late.

Hope to have a safe delivery in Summer.

Friend?

How do you end up relationship with your friend?
I feel something strange these days, I think somehting is going on. Something is happening very silently...
I am trying not to care, and see what will happen next.

What would you do if your co-worker wants to be a friend with you?
I see a work place just as a place to work, not a place to make close friends because I want to focus on my work. Maybe this is selfish, but I just want to keep my cycle of life.

Am I strange?

Study something new!

Hi there. I have not had a chance to writing a post.

I happened to start studying on Internet Marketing a couple of week ago. In fact, I am just reading a very basic book of this kind at this moment because I need to study...

I was asked to translate a web page for English speakers, however, translating is not a simple transposition of words but expressing in different language. I want to do a good job and make a good business web page. This is the reason for study.

Though I already have a B.A., have a family and work as a language staff, I want to look to different area which I have never thought about.
The company I work for gave me a chance to explore and study about something new.
One teacher of mine taught me "Young people have a heart of Challenge".
This is a challenge for me, and reading book and studying really brings a spirit I used to have in University. This is not bad:) I want to stay young!
I do not know how it is going to be, and how much I can do. Fortunately, I have a co-worker who knows about Internet Marketing well and also understands English. So it will be OK.

I really feel I am a lucky person.
I know it is going to be tough, and hard work. I will make it!!!

Insomnia

Thinking about life too much, is it bad? good?

My friend has been insomnia since February...

I do not know what to say to her...

Castle lovers

Very interesting that more and more people, not only old people but young women, are visiting castles these days. A new trend now in Japan is Sengoku Busho which means gennerals of Sengoku period. Sengoku period is the warring state period in 16th century in Japan. Dramas and games about this period and generals have been popular regardless of age or sex.

One of reasons is Taiga Drama made by NHK (Nippon Hoso Kyokai, Japanese Broadcasting coporation). This is long-term historical fiction drama and has long history since 1963.
Actually, it has a lot of impact on Japanese.

Castles are beautiful as artistic buildings and guardens along with are also the highlight. Many people have Hanami party at castle gardends.

Evrey time I go back to my hometown, I visit the nearest castle where I frequently visited during my school days.

Somehow, this place heals me...

then I realize I am very Japanese...

Family gathering at zoo

On 5th, called Children's Day in Japan, my parents-in-low took us to a zoo which does not charge for children to enter on this day. This zoo is at a mountain, so kind of large and has a lot of animals, monkeys, elephants, lions, kangaroos and etc. Children can ride horses, feed sheep and ducks, and touch small rabbits and chicks.


Worker were giving out a piece of bread to adults and children, however, animals were too hungry to wait to be fed. They sneaked into my arms and took my pieces away...:( My daughter was a little bit frightened.


My daughter was excited because of animals and grand parents. She seemed to like her grand parents a lot! and I like it:) She hold their hands and watched animals, and my husband and I walked together. It is rare and fresh for me to walk only with him side by side.





Her grand father was very very happy about walking with his grand daughter. On the way out of the zoo, he asked " Which animal do you like?", " I like giraffe!" she answered, so he bought a giraffe cushion for her. That was really quick! She gave him a big smile:)


Sometime, I feel alone in raising child, however, there are people who really love and care her. I had better rely on grandparents more, maybe.

Surprising Cherry Tree

Look at this tree.

This breaks a big rock and keep growing to bloom flowers.

This is telling me "constant dripping wears away the stone".

Many a little makes a miracle...
