The Name of a Friend on Wiki






When I was looking up some things on the internet, 
I happened to find on Wikipedia the name of a friend 
I stopped seeing several years ago. 
He was talented, but I was surprised at how successful he has been. 
It seems he is just as talented as he used to be.






I thought that us remaining friends was not good for him for various reasons
and I stopped all contact with him.


I might be selfish, and now I somewhat regret ending our friendship.
I never knew he achieved such success.
His music was released in a few foreign countries!

The Folly




I've been too lazy to do anything recently..........



I actually had some free time to practice the flute, but I didn't play it enough because of my laziness so I had to read some music sheets on the train on my way to work. After a while, I realized that the train had already passed the station I was supposed to get off at.

 Since I had already missed my stop, I decided to return to my original station only after having lunch at a big station that has a lot of shops and restaurants. After work and when I was on my way home, I was exhausted and fell asleep on the train. So I missed my stop again!! When I opened my eyes, I didn't know where the train was running because the landscape was completely different from what I'm used to.

As I've written similar accidents before here, I sometimes have such events so I wasn't surprised what happened. I was more amazed at my foolishness.

In a Muddle

Since I had an extra job today, I woke up earlier than usual. While being half asleep and half awake, I was preparing for leaving and thinking that I have to leave by eight o'clock. The next moment, I turned pale because I realized that the job starts at eight! It wasn't the time which I have to leave. I was thinking 8 8 8 ....... so I misunderstood! Then, it had already passed seven o'clock. At this point, to be late for work was fixed. I was in a hurry, but I was thinking that the way of making out today's schedule is odd.


"Do I really have to leave at eight o'clock or does the job start at eight o'clock?"


I repeated this question some times in my mind in a few seconds. At that time, I couldn't remember I had my notebook soon. In the end, the job was supposed to start at nine o'clock and I didn't need to hurry. Moreover, I got a call from my boss before leaving and he said that the extra job was canceled besides the morning job. I'm in a muddle today.



I caught a cold a few days ago and now I'm enjoying my hoarse voice.

Overestimation!





I don't know why my boss chose me as the new member of a quartet.
She must have overestimated my ability.
There is definitely a huge difference in ability between the other members and myself.
Since I'm emotionally drained by stress, I feel like I want to change jobs.

To make things worse, I got a cold.

It's getting cold here in Japan. Take care of yourself!

No More Expectation






If I can't resolve my concern even after thinking very much, that is meaningless. 

That's why I stopped thinking about it!



Instead of that it's slowly dawning on me that 
I've been having my true feelings toward some things.

It's a bit romantic, isn't it?









I'm not sure about current English classes in Japan, but when I was a teen, 
I learned this sentence as the subjunctive mood for the first time.
I think most of the people who are around my age still remember this.


If I were a bird, I could fly to you.














夜が明けるまで



なげきつつ


ひとり寝る夜の


あくるまは


いかに久しき


ものとかは知る



あなたが来て下さらないのを嘆きながらひとりで寂しく寝る夜の
明けるまでの時間がどれほど長いものであるかを
あなたはご存知なのでしょうか
きっとご存知ないでしょう

Her Intuition



I'm chronically sleep deprived and my complexion is annoyingly bad these days. -_-;


I had dinner last night with one of my friends who has a thing for cosmetics and fashion. She can always tell how I'm doing just by looking at the condition of my skin. The first words she said right after seeing me was "Are you okay? Are you busy these days?"

She doesn't know which cosmetics I use and one of them is running out, but almost as if she was watching my daily life, she just happened to give me the product that I needed. She's just generous like that sometimes. Her intuition is too much! I'm glad I have such a wonderful friend.^^

Is it too late?




ガァ―――(;´゚д゚`)―――ン



In order to fill out some documents for going to France, I took out my passport from its case for the first time in a year. I found a small piece of paper sandwiched between the pages. It had a handwritten e-mail address written on it. That reminded me of an old lady I met in Paris last year.

That Must be Torture




"Tell the name of the flower you like to the person dumping you. 
The flower bloom every year."



This phrase is from a book written by a very
famous Japanese author I like: Yasunari Kawabata. 

This is a tip which reminds him/her of you. 

I think that if a person in unrequited love with someone special
who has the same name as a certain flower,
and the flower blooms throughout the year,
then the person would think of his or her name every time the person sees it.

That must be torture.

Sloth





Suffering from a terrible dearth of motivation, I'm idling away my time pointlessly. 


Although I have a lot of things to do....


I appreciate any help you can give!
