My Neighbor TOTORO

I'm showing Oototoro for nickey.
He wears the gray & white coat.

Now I feel like seeing the movie againg because we talked about the movie a lot, but it's better idear to see in English!
It's a popular film not only in Japan also many countries.

Tonari no Totoro

They are Sho-totoro and Chu-totoro in the Japanese animation film,

'Tonari no Totoro'

The smaller and white one is Sho.

The other, bigger and sky blue is Chu.

Especially I like Chu.

They looks like owls, but imaginary animals.

The picture on the apper right,

there were sown some seeds on the growund and Totoros are playing to gorw up trees quickly.

NOTE: Sho means small, and Chu means middle in JAPANESE.

Finally, I finished the correspondence course in English E-mail writting today!
I started last autumn and it took 5 months!
Actually it was supposed to be finished in 3 months but
it can be extended 3 more months automatically for the people like me ^-^;.

So, even though I couldn't finish it in 3months, it's no problem.
Now I feel a sense of accomplishment!


I can start studying something new.
Probably I'm gonna start studying for English conversation or TOEIC.

Besides, I 'm gonna start doing some excersise because I can't lose weight
after I got some in New Year's holiday.

Sakuraduka Yakkun is a popular comedian who acts alone( We say pin-geinin) in Japan.

And then, yesterday he came to our city, so I went to see him.

Whenever he holds 'Skeban union meeting', He wears a sailor suit and have a babmoo sword.

His curled hair is really long and beautiful.

though it's clear that he is a guy, he is more beautiful than ordinally women.

Oh dear...

✿A HAPPY NEW YEAR /謹賀新年✿

These days, I keenly realize that I need to brush up my English one more time because
when I need to speak or e-mail in English in our office,
I can't tell everyting what I need to tell customers.><

My friend, nickey took this picture in Italy and

I'm really interested in these penguins.

They are like Heiba Yoko in China, aren't they?

Polka-dots are her symbolic pettern.

I love Kusama Yayoi, so I'm introducing some of her works.^-^

When I glanced at these four animals, I thought it must' ve been Gaspard & Lisa.

But I found that they were reindeer since I noticed their horns.

I saw the white big Christmas tree in Sakae.
The colour is slighgtly inclining to blue and it makes the tree more fantastic.

Sakae area is illuminated with various colours of lights for Christmas and new year.

My senior chose this postcard for me and she commented
that this picture was close to my image, especially the scarf waving in the wind.

She has left our office last week but our friendship never ends. right?^^

OKADA Armin was used to be a popular cartoonist and she drew serial cartoon strips in 'Ribon'.

'The father is worrier' was one of my favorite cartoons in my childhood. She is called 'a dokudami flower in the girls' cartoon world'

Some people don't like her works for extreme plots and pictures.

That's why she didn't become really popular.

But she got many fans and now she is in the limelight because internet become widespread and some enthusiastic fans gather on the internet.

～Eat out with my sweetheart～

I went to a restaurant with my sweetheart last weekend.
He isn't my boyfriend but I like him for a long time.

Actually we know each other for almost a year and we know not only good points also bad.

It's not easy to love a person for a very longtime , however
I want to see his good points to be happy with him, for the time being.

Strengely enough, when women are with someone they love,
they become small eaters.

And I'm not exception! It's funny but I couldn't eat up...
Sorry for a dish and dessert.><

>Cynthia
Don't worry about this topics.
I like him but I'm always enjoy my life.
I don't feel unhappy at all!

Today's Japanese food I cooked.

I want to explain about them but I'm so sleepy today.

～See you next time～

How can I say 'Yarase' in English?

Let's see the following dialogue...

A:I'm really hooked on that TV show "ABC" now!
B:I think it's all staged.
A:What? You're kidding. I guarantee you it's definitely real.
B:I don't know... it looks staged to me!
A:You're breaking my heart...
