3/24
well, it's just 11 more days I stay in Davis before I go back to oregon,and 2 and half months to go back to nihon, I've been thinking about japan a lot lately, about what I'd do,I mean what I'd want to do. now here are what I wanna do. playing basketball. this may be primary thing I'm looking forward to doing, well, maybe it's not, seeing my friends should be nicer than that, both are as important as each other to me. There's something else I wanna do that isn't biggie, like go to"yoshinoya""izakaya"etc, I'd be able to have so much free time once I got back, I'd be bum,I mean like"po-taro-" sort of stuff, I don't have a job in japan, I don't intend to get it, you never know what's gonna happen though, so I think I'm gonna do something I couldn't do when I was in japan for a while because of lack of time, that'll be fun. azusa sent me e-mails that tells about trip she went to the US, that's fun to read, she went to LA,Las vegas,etc, famous places, I think most famous place I've ever been in the US is......san francisco -.-; nothing can be compared to Las vegas!! can't be helped!! but one thing she told me something I thought that's nice is that quietness she found when she went to death valley that you can't notice if you are in japan, she said there's always as leasat little sound in japan where she live, but at there when wind isn't blowing, it's totally silent,,,,,, soothing to me. could have 3/11
I had the intramural basketball game last night. we ranked as NO.1 seed, but we lost, that was good game though,bouble over time, acturally,I never experienced double over time. To look back the game, there are so many "could have, should have" in the game, but fact is fact, nothing changes if I bitch, I had a fun :) I've been struggling with english, cuz I've been tring to collect so many words, maybe they are as many as words I've studied in Oregon. It's interesting that if you desire to study hard and do it,you might not be able to study efficiently, vicious circle, I'd say. And in my situation, time is running out, that makes me feel that I have to do something, you know?
well, I should go, it's getting hot here*lol* 2/24
having basketball game tonight. We lost last game so we can't lose anymore to make playoff, though, I'm not sure about paper that says we won last game, it could be because opponent has done something wrong, it hardly happens though, if we won that game, we are not going have to worry about making playoff because we won 3 games, we have 4 game before playoff, anyway, well see it.
I went to party on saturday, my friend from basketball team invited me, that was cool and crazy stuff was going on. I liked it though, I liked jello shot, cuz I can't drink hard drink, but I can swallow it, and taste good too. you should try it. I better go. ganbaruzoooooo this is 2/19
not what I was gonna write, but I don't have much time to write, I just want to let you know I had blast on b-day and thank you all of my friends. You guys are so cool, I gotta go, PS jamie obasan, I shouldn't call you obasan anymore, maybe this is last time :p PS2 azusa, that's all right you might not be able to see me, just have fun in LA and call me if you could, and let me know when you come. 2/14
I finally became 22, 2nd my b-day since I came to US,last time was pathetic, went to play baskaetball and there's nobody, I couldn't even see my friend there, that was sad-_-,but this time might be gonna be much fun, having party with friends, sounds nice huh? I can't wait!! but before that, I have to have meeting with our teacher about class how we think of so far, class consists from 24 japanese people who are trainee, some of them don't understand much english and some of them are not interested in it, and teacher told me that sometimes she can't tell wether or not we understand what she said, she is considering about changing or simplifying contents of class, to tell you the truth, I'm not so interested in plants, but as long as class is ran by english, there's always something I can learn about, it would be pretty much english words though, I mean, I wouldn't be able to stay awake if that class is ran by japanese, you know? I wanna talk about it little bit more, how well do you think we should be able to speak english after living in US 20 months? you'd say it depands on people and how they study, yeah you'er right, but it shouldn't be like junior high school level english, we are obviously better than most of people in japan who doesn't study english, but I think some of people who's been study english in japan are better than us, even though we are trainee so that don't get much time to study and take class, goof off or work hard or whatever you do,people would see you as who's lived in US for long time, so you should never stop studying, seems to me trainees are kinda good at listening, but they are not good at talking, neigher am I, listening doesn't require much effort as speaking does for sure, you need to work on it and keep up with it, jamie who's my friend told me once that immerse yourself into their culture which you want to study or experient about is best way,kind of thing, right jamie? :p I don't know if you still remember it though, so we are in US and there's thousand of opportunity around you, I would suggest to capture it. I'll be taking exam, TOEIC or TOEFL whichever it is(just can't remember) I've always wanted to know how I can do on that test, so that'll be nice to know about my english. well, I should go now, happy St, Valentine's Day, and thank you for celebrating my b-day. m^_^m PS, azusa itu america ni ikun?? friday 2/7
It's only 1week to my b-day, I'll be 22 in a week,,,,,, unbelievable,,,,,,,,,, I just can't imagine myself being 22,though it is not gonna be big difference being 22 and 21,well, I think I just don't wanna get old,you know, next year,I'll be 23, next,24 and so on,it's kinda deppressing when you think about it,I still think I don't wanna live anymore when I'm around 30, it's bad mentality though, this is from when I was very small kid and I still have that thought, I don't think I'm gonna kill myself or anything, I think I need to find something I can obsessed with, seems like it would be living in US. I guess. I'm having party tonight, ^_^v you guys have fun, I'm having fun
hope of basketball 2/4
I went to watch UC Davis basketball game last sunday,and guess who I saw there? I saw KENJIROU HONGOU on opponent team who`s on all japan national high school team when we were in high school . I knew he went to US to play basketball and he is in calif, but I didn`t, or rather I couldn`t expect him to be here,you know? it`s almost impossible, what a coincidence,,,,, I didn't talk to him because they lost that he must not be in good mood, and I don't think he remembers me even though we've talked when we were in school. but it's great surprise to me, and I'm glad I could see him, I like the way he plays. man, I can't remember what I was gonna write -_-; it's so irritating!! well, I guess I should go*lol* one of the 1/31
most stupid thing I have ever done should be this, jamming my finger,from playing pingpong=_____= go ahead laght at me,I know how fool I was, my friend who had played pingpong for 6years told me it`s so rare that people get injured from playing pingpong, well, I don`t know what to say,I have game on monday and seemes like I won`t be able to play,it`s been killing me,I can`t even bend it -_-; that sucks,*sigh* pingpong,,,,,,,,,,,,, Tonight, I`m gonna have some drink and talk with my friend at bar,it`s gonna be first time I go to bar since I got here, that`ll be fun. I better go, my finger hurts the hell out of me. -_- getting off 1/24
class earlier is just nice, today I was supporsed to be at college till 4 o`clock,but I`m finished now, it`s 1pm, I`m free!!!!! well, what am I gonna do?*lol* since I`ve worked every single day, I`m not used to be free like right now*lol*though, I`m sure I`m gonna play basketball, and at 5:30, I`ll be playing ping-pong with my frind, we made a bet, it`s best of 5 which means you win when you won 3 games before opponent did, so loser has to buy dinner for winner, he had played ping pong for long time,but I can beat him, maybe,,, I think,,,, I hope*lol* It`s friday guys!!! what are you guys gonna do? I`m sorry some of you have to work or study or whatever,no sarcasm*lol* now I can be laidback,and do whatever I want with extremely uncountable amount of time(I know it strange english). well, I gotta go, see you guys. hey azusa, can you send me an e-mail?so that I`ll be able to know your adress, ok? I could say like "adoresu wo oshiete",but I know you understand it. Just in case people think I`m boasting or something.:p
finally 1/16
able to write my nikki. but I`m not using my computer, I`m at campus now, looks like I won`t be able to use my computer while I`m here, too bad. I have to talk about my hostfamily, guess what? they are wonderful!! very nice to me. and cheerful, thoughtful, they have 4kids,14yers,12,7,5, I was kinda anxious about kids before I go,cuz sometimes kids can be brats, you know*lol* but they are compleatly not. very nice, I like being with them so much. I would never get any trubles with them..... I think*lol* when I tried to write this, I couldn`t remember password,but somehow, I remember it, and one more thing, there is no sign when I use it to put smile on sentence!!huuuum, how am I gonna make it? maybe I should just use :) insted. to talk about basketball team of UC Davis, they are not good as I expected,cuz someone told me they won the National championship in division 2. and I thought it`s last year or something, and I saw them, I was like"O_O; well, they don`t look good as they should be" and they actually are not so good, it`s 1998 they won the championship, they didn`t even make playoff last year. I`m not saying I`m better than them, most of them are better than me, obviously, but I swear, I could at least make team,cuz some of them don`t look better than me. and guys I used to play with in portlant are good enough to play here too. I wanna play against them sometime, which is not gonna happen though. so I don`t think I`ll able to write an e-mail and nikki stuff much as I used to, but it might be good for me cuz I`ve been kinda obsessed with computer. I need to stay away from it for while. well, I guess I better go, want to play with kids*lol* you guys have to call me sometimes.OK? and I`ll tell you guys adress soon, I need to write your adress down from my computer. 12/23
I think I'm getting to hate christmas, cuz I gotta do so much stuff to get ready for it, like present, in general, we don't exchange present, and I hate shopping and am not used to buying present, I haven't finished shopping yet even though I went to buy stuff twice already*lol*
today jamie told me she got present from nami and me.I'm sure she'll love it, but that present has been sent by nami,not by me. and I still have some presents that I should have sent to my friends. I'm lazy, -_- I even am trying to buy christmas card for friends. good grief. anyways, I also hate this season, cuz every place it gonna be close, you know, and I can only play one more time basketball before this year is over, and friends are gone to house, you know, it kinda sucks. I talked to my G-mom over the phone, she sounded crying, I don't know she was,nagaikishitehoshiina, gotta go, oyasumi- 12/17
it's been frigging long time since last time I wrote this nikki^^; well, while I wasn't writting this, so many things happend, my friend came from japan, new 2 more japanese guys got here, etc, I feel like I'm about to forget allll english words I've ever learned.honestly, since I have to use japanese almost all the time, that's not gonna be good.
one good thing happend though, the guys who cames to there want to play with me,and gives me compliment, like "hey, I like the way you play" "I can't guard you" stuff like that, and the guy who many people think best at that place and I are always talk about each other,me"hey, how many poing did you get from me? I think I'm gonna decide to not guard you anymore*lol*" him"what fuck you talking about? I can't guard you either". and other guys goes"he(about me) put the ball on where, when it should be" I can't belive those guys just said stuff like that, cuz first time I went to there, no body gave me a ball, almost ignored me, cuz I'm japanese, doesn't speak english, short,skinny. but I knew it I could play against them, and I didn't have time to be scared, like song of eminem says, if you have one opportunity, gotta take it,and I think I did, I got better than before when I started to play at there, and could make so many basketball friends, I like myself playing basketball so much, even though I'm intense when I play, I even curse, I don't think you guys know it, but I do,with my terrible ununderstandable english*lol* but it's good I assume, cuz not many japanese who's in US can experience what I'm doing, and I'm learning so many things from them, I think I'm just fortunate in entire my life, I'll stop babbling*lol* shiita, happy b-day, I was gonna call you, but by the time I got back home, it's already 10 so I decided to not call you, but I got something for you, look forward to getting it oyasumi------ 12/11
I got 2 more japanese in my house. it's so crowded!!!!!!!!!well, anyways, they seem kinda good guys, I hope they have patience with mexicans*lol* well, that also means it's been 1 year since I came here, I just can't believe that. time goes soooooooo first!! I've met soooooo many people who I couldn't meet if I didn't come here(I mean US), I'm sooo glad I came, and kinda proud of myself. ^^; well, I guess I better keep making effort. I'll. and I wanna tell everyone I've met that I thank them. thank you^^ 12/9
today my friend and I playes basketball, of course this was his first time to play it here. he really enjoyed it. but tomorrow, we are playing too. different place where I usually play. it's gonna be hard for him, cuz, it must scare him,even though he is better than me, but it's gonna be good experience for him.I can't wait. my friend who's taking my friend to shopping tomorrow came with us, and staying at my house tonight, cuz if she goes back to her house, she might not be able to wake up*lol* so she is staying. but since I don't have bed for her, I told her to sleep on my bed, but she refused it,so she's sleeping on sofa which is shabby,old. I really feel bad about that, if she is man, I might not care.you know. anyways, I couldn't possibly make her to do it. oh well. she is just nice, thank you yuki ^^. well, I better get sleep, it's frigging late, like 4 o'clock!! I gotta go, oyasumi---- zz-_- 12/8
my friend naoki got here today from japan, that is just so strange that to see him in US. anyways, I'm glad he got here. I took him to my friend's house to have barbecue party, and I guess it's kinda hard for him, I mean, there's no people who speaks japanese besides me and him, my friend speaks a little japanese,but it's not plenty enough.so he ended up being like shy, well, he is gonna learn a lot of things while he is here. he didn't bring dictionary, I don't think that is stmart idea*lol* 12/1
today, I worked till 11:30, and after that, I took a nap for like hour or so, and went to see movie that is called "they". it's supposed to be scary. ....yeah, it was. but it didn't scare me so much, this is just my opinion, but in US, scary movie isn't so scary as japanese one is. I mean, there is to much "monster" stuff in US, so is one I just watched. to me(also to lots of japanese I assume) it's almost all about ghost when it comes to scary movie. one time me and my friend had discussion about what people worry about when they are kid and go to bed. she said american people are worried about ghost and also monster. to me, since I have never thought of monster coming for me when I go to bed, it's always been out of subject. so I don't get scared from them. I sometimes get disappointed with american scary movie.I mean, they are good, but not like what I expect it's gonna be. you know. Oh well. oh man, I'm getting frigging sleepy zzz-_- sorosoro neyo-kana
oyasumi- my 11/27
wallet got broken -_- I bought it when I was in japan, nagoya city. I kinda have attachment to that wallet, oh well, otsukaresama^^ thank you. thanksgiving day!!I'll skip tomorrow's lunch, so that I can eat a lot of food later. I'm prepared to be lazy*lol* you know what? I'm gonna tell you something, I'm already lazy. cuz I'm finishing this right here:p how substantial nikki is this?*lol* 11/26
I knew what I was gonna write on this nikki. but now I don't remember....... shit,it happens so many times! I don't wanna know how suck my recollection does.*lol* anyway, I went to play basketball tonight. and I didn't get play at side I usually play! because each side can be played by only 20 people, and I got there late, so side I usually play at was already full. I had to play other side-_- that was fun to play though. but I wanted to play other side which is more copetitive. oh well, guess I have to get there earlier.so that I can get choice. oh I remember one thing I was gonna write about. yesterday, I got letter from my friend. and I took it home and tried to open it up. but it's already opend, and furthermore, there wasn't even inside of letter, yeah, important part, well,anyway, I only got evelope*lol* seemed like she didn't close it up. so I gotta ask her whether or not she did. that's kinda funny though, cuz I was like"WTF?" well, I gotta sleep, oyasumi- ^^/ what 11/25
I really shoul do with my future is,,,,,what? I don't know -_- I do know what I wanna do though. stay in US. I don't know why I'm sticking to it. but that's the just things I really really accomplish. and I hardly see which job I should drive for. the job I'm doing now is interesting.so this is one of my idea, go to 2 year college,and study about flower more and more,and coming back here and work. I don't know if it's gonna work. I'm 21, gotta think about it.and if I want to get something.I have to be sure that you have to lose something too, gah!! this is irritating.may be I need to get some sleep, shoot-__- basketball 11/21
why do I like basketball? I don't know, I didn't use to even like it while I was in high school. I was like"I won't play this never ever again after graduate" I was so serious, but now, basketball has been helping me a lot in many way, I believe I'd end up dull,lifeless people if I didn't find it. even though sometimes basketball gets me frustrated, still I'm gratefull to be able to play. so today, I went to play basketball, and there weren't so many people at there, so I could get prenty time to play, even we lost a lot of games, there's guy who's on team has won almost all games tonight(we beat them last game, that's only game they lost tonight!),who also I think best among players at the place.we're guarding each other as usual, it's sooo much fun playing against him!! he is like 6'2, and can elevate so high, on the other hand, me, 5'10, can barely touch the rim(^^;), it's good practice for me playing better,toller player . I don't know how I can tell this to you, you should come to see it*lol* my friend is coming here tomorrow, I'm gonna be confidant for him. I mean, he has soooooooo many complains about soooooo many things*lol*he'll be grumbling tomorrow, I hope it's not gonna be long*lol* gotta go to bed, need to get sleep for tomorrow*lol*
talking about 11/18
movie jack ass. as I said, so many scene that has been taped in japan in that movie. why did those guys take them in japan? this is question of the day,,, I got guestimate, I assume that they did it in japan because of that they think it's easy to do, people are timid, people say nothing when they did something stupid. it might be right, may be not, but in that movie, japnaese're so timid, I know how they feel though, Point of this nikke is degrading.they didn't care what they do and whoever see them, but because of them have done stupid things, japanese people might think of foreigner is like that,,,,, you guys know about "onsen" suit? 3 guys has been refused to get in onsen because of their nationality.that's obviously wrong, but I have to say that onsen company may well have done that, cuz russian navy has come to there and done the things what is they're not allowed to. not only once, that's why onsen company prohibited foreigner to get in.
anyway, don't watch it*lol* that ain't so fun, i guess.
I can't be awake anymore, I'm going to bed. zz-_-
11/17
I played ping-pong at chris's house who works at exercise gym where I'm going to. he is good at it, I was kinda confident about winning,I ended up beating him, but we're so close, I won 5 games and lost 4 games, that was fun,his father is good too, we should do this again sometimes,
after that he gave me a ride to home, and other friend jared gave me a call,and I finally watched "jack ass", this is my feeling about that movie,,,,,sick,gross,disgusting. I was even depressed after I watched it. even though I liked most of stuff they did. but some of them are beyond funny.-__- I found that they took many of scene in japan, I was so surprised about it,I don't know why they did it in japan, I wonder if they did it because they think japanese are timid that japanese are not gonna do anything if they do something stupid. I gotta get some sleep -__- gotta be ready for most depressing day*lol* I hate monday, oyasumi--- my shoulder 11/14
is killing me so bad -_- I got elbow while I was playing basketball, the guy who gave me elbow is big guy,like 6'5 or so and solid, It wasn't hurting when I was playing, but now, "itai"-_- damn, I really want improvement in my basketball, I think I can play ok in japan, but it's gonna be totally difference when it comes to playing in US, it is even harder. though, somehow I still can make score, I think I wanna dominate the game or something^^; what a greed*lol* it's good for me pushing myself into that kind of situation, cuz it's not "hey, are you all right? I think I pushed you a little" kind of basketball, nobody laughs while they're playing, talk trash, intense, just about win, and that is what I want too. it's fun, but not fun,I don't know how express this, anyway, I gotta work on myself. and I'll. "I want to 11/13
drink the miso soup that you made" do you know what this is? this word is so popular as proposing word when guys proposes to women, even though I don't think any of guy has ever said that,for real. but most japanese knows this.it's weird cuz no body use this word for proposing but this is soo popular as propposing word anyway. it's not supposed to be popular if people don't use, weird. so what's yours? let me know if you have good one.*lol*^^ "sigh" kekkon ka----......you guys think about it? -___- 11/12
one good thing,two bad things. I got today,
good thing is that I could play basketball well,and getting used to playing against those good guys. bad things, I couldn't change paycheck for cash cuz the lady who works at winco where I usually change it into money said she can't take paycheck which managing director's signature is wrote by handwriting.I didn't get it, what?does it have to be stamp or something?I was upset but still,I tried to persuade her,but it didn't work. she said I should come back again when she doesn't work!! I can't believe she just said that, if she lets coworker let do it, she can do it.right? she was kinda mean to me. she was so annoying*lol*^^; so I said "you don't work tomorrow do you?" she"no" me"good! ok thanks, bye"^^;I know,that's not good. but I couldn't help it, I even wish I could have said bitch. uze------ other bad thing, somebody stole my ball!!!! I played till they close the gym, and I noticed there was no ball in the gym. I realized what happend immediately. I threw my hands up, and asked the guy who works there that if he found it,please keep it for me.
and he goes,"ohhhhh, that's too bad, don't bring a ball next time" with tranquil*lol* that was funny, he cracked me up. well I think I should get some sleep, oyasumi---. zz
-- 8 mile 11/10
I went to see the movie with my friend, that was great!! that movie was based on real life of eminem. he used to be totally loser, he choked himself when he was in battle of rap(I have no idea how to explain this, 2 guys get 45 sec,and beat other with rap^^;man,I can't explain this well.) and he didn't even try to fight again. but finally he made his mind to be there and fight,and no body could beat him. that was sooooooo cool moment.I had no idea what kind movie this would be. but I think this is kinda inspiring movie, at least for me,it is. so I recommend this movie.^^ we went to eat sushi after movie, and I completely forgot about that my friend can't use chopsticks*lol* I was like"shit, I forgot about it, I'm sorry",even some of japanese uses hand to eat sushi in japan,I don't think american people would do that. fortunately, he only got 2 plates of them, so I said"hey, let's get out of here and get something else",we ended up eatting Burger king*lol* I love burger king tho. hey, eventful season is just around the corner, what you guys gonna do?^^ high school 11/10
that I went to has lost to some team at final game of tournament of Gifu prefecture. they're not supposed to lose at least within a prefecture..... and score, 101 and 55. that's ununderstandable. anyway, otsukaresan.^^ I wonder next year if they gonna have to snap the34(35?) years winning strike(we have never missed winning at summer prefecture tournament^^v),well, sounds like I'm bragging or something*lol* I'll stop here, 5/1 11/9
yeah, 5/1, you know what it is? INDIANA PACERS. very gooood start. I knew they're good team. they don't have miller now, so what if he's back? it's gonna be better or worse?
I don't know, I really don't. seems to me,it's better if they keep their starting line up than giving reggie the shooting guard position. he's still great shooter, my top player. but getting old too. so I'd love him coming off the bench. they still need him, not to mention when play off, I want to see more him making shots in crunch. my friend mike broke the promise that we're going out, oh well,-_-
I hope my friend jared won't do that tomorrow*lol what a bore! I think I'm gonna......... eat something*lol* getting 11/7
furious temper? I don't know, I've just noticed that I might be getting emotional especially when I'm playing basketball.like today,I missed lots of shots I took.and shouted kinda bad word(you know,F word),I kinda say these words when I'm playing with them,not to them but to me.I know I'm not supposed to say it.but,,,,,,,,I don't know.I suppose that it's because the way they are, I've seen them playing, talking that way,so I learnd it from them^^ I'm sorry if you don't like those stuff, but don't hate me*lol* I won't bring those words up to you, I promise.*lol* well, It's short, but I'm tired. oyasumi--- nimotsu11/6
my friend azusa sent the package to me. contents are,,,,letter,,,,CDs(lots of them!!),,,,music note of "shimauta",,,,,pics,,,,,, great,it's just great, thank you azusa, but I don't think I wanted pic of "yakiniku no niku"*lol* I was like"damn,I want to eat!" anyway I really like all of them, arigato-ne^^voh one more word for you, I can't possibly think chuunichi is going to win next year:p ok I just wanted to write it, I gotta go, great day11/5
it's great day!! why? cuz I've had nice time with playing basketball. the place I went to is very competitive. many people.first time I got there I was like"that's what I'm talking about"*lol* this time was second time I went to there, actually they don't play full court, they separate the court,so you play only half court which I don't like,
so at one of half court, people who just want to play plays,and other side, people who kinda good plays, but if you want to play, you can play better side anyway, but if you can't play well, they gonna give you hard time^^; so I played better side(last time I played other side,cuz I was with my friend), and I could have sooooo much fun^^v to tell you the truth, many of guys who play basketball look down japanese or asian or whatever, so it's kinda hard to get credit from those guys. and furthermore, even american are sometimes intimidated by them. anyway, I did have great time. and I'm sooooooooooo tired-___- I'm goig to bed, oyasumi---- akan nemusugiru answer 11/4
of the riddle, it's....... my fother is my mother, that will be like"watashi no oto-san wa watashi no oka-san desu" right? then it also could be "watashino chichi wa WAGAMAMA desu" ^_________^*big smile*, how many people could make it? or rather how many people have been reading this?*lol* It's been long time to me not writting nikki.I've been busy, and one thing I've noticed that I can't write this when I don't use the computer(of course)*lol* I wasn't using computer,and that's just why. I don't know why, I really don't, but I always get good things when I've felt the ending of something is around the corner,and I'm eventually gonna miss it a lot. I've really startid to think about end of this program. man,I do not want to go,,,,,,back. I've lived for like17months in US so far. and I don't think many people understand how much I like US.matter of fact I'm not sure about me loving here so much. I'm not familiar with american culture,history and such. it's just pleasant,comfortable being here. I really wish I could've been born in US,^^; , I like what I'm doing and my life though. that's all about today. see you maybe tommorow*lol*^_^/
I'll give you clue for the riddle,
you translate it into japanese. OK? so answer must be japanese sentence. good luck if 10/25
we can trade everything, world would be wonderful, this has come across my mind. I mean like if you are 5'10, and you want more than that, and your friend is 6'5 and he doesn't like being that high, if,if you can trade highs, it meets the all of two's needs, right? from watching jamie's nikki, I feel strange cuz I want to stay in US forever, and jamie wants to go to japan so bad too,I don't have to do anything about going back to japan, just wait the time I go to(next june),and jamie, she doesn't have to do nothing to live in US, that's natural thing,but it's strange, I have something somebody want, I don't have something somebody have, also things people take it seriously might not be important for other people, everything I'm talking about now depends on people though. *sigh* hey guys, I got riddle for you, My father is my mother. that's it, riddle me this,^^ if you could, I'll give something for you, this is so hard I belive. you have to know much japanese. ganbatte---^^ council 10/24
came to see me today,it's good to meet people who I haven't met long time.^^ He told me many things which I'm gonna do,
I'm excited about going to college, but also I've started to think about going back to japan, I only have 7 more months-__- people might say"still have 7 more months", I know,I still can do lots of things,but for me, this is the country I like most, you know,I'll miss you america;_;*lol* chris who works at the fitness gym which I'm going to asked my cell number,and we'er going out to watch the new movie called "jack off"*lol*I saw the commercial of it, it seems great, they do stupid stuff,I don't even think it deserves to be called movie^^;I don't know. anyway, I like to meet new people and become friend^^v ok I'm going to bed now, hey guys, peace*lol*(am I advertizing my stupidity?*lol*) oyasumi----- ZZZ-v- watching the movie10/23
How high. It's sooo funny, it's also kinda crazy though.By watching this kind of movie, you can tell lots of differences in english. I wonder if it's like just dialect thing thatas you can see in japan,maybe it's not, anyway, there's so many weed and curse thing going on that movie^^; it's so interesting, they say"word" instead of saying something like,,exactly,right(I guess^^;) and say"peace" for greeting like good bye, isn't that interesting? and to think of japanese, they don't really have curse words,"kuso" can be, but how about "chikusyou"? is it curse word? I can't possibly think so, We don't even say that word often, or rather almost none. my boss took me out to the japanese restaurant tonight,I had "torinokaraage,butakimuchi,sukiyaki" and they'er so good, I though I could never have sukiyaki untill I go back to japan.and butakimuchi, I like that stuff,I always order that when I go to izakaya(I don't go to there often though), I told my boss that I'm writing my nikki on line,so he and his family is gong to see this page,I should write proper words huh?^^; zzz-____- nemui,
yoshi, kyouha mouneyou, oyasumi
late-_-10/21
It's after 1:30,,,,,,,, nemui zzz-_-,I just got back from friend's house that we've met at the hoop. University of Tsukuba has won the kantou region championship,That's great cuz they'er in division2 when 4th year guys now were freshman,congratulations.^^ I haven't seen their game, they seem good, bunch of smart players,I don't think they'er taller in the league.but somehow, they won it.ah--- I wanna play with them,I wonder if I made all japan again,I can play with them or some other colleges that'd be cool,I don't think we can make that without our foreign teammate(all japan has regulation that foreign people can't play in this tournament,I know,that is ridiculous). damn,It's 2:00!!I took the time,I was watching one of the greatest game of REGGIE MILLER,I'll talk about it later.:p OK I gotta go, imanenaito shinu^^; 10/20
I watched movie called, when terry met sarry(obviously wrong^^;), my impresstion is..... too hard for me*lol*cuz their dialogue was so fast,or rather not understandable^^;I could understand what's going on,but still I don't think I could understand them all,It's great movie,funny. the scene crack me up is when sarry(?) pretending as if she achieves orgasm in the restaurant.that cracked me up^^ I guess I should watch it again. my tongue doesn't work well,I can't say the word "literallyl" I tried to say that 1000 times today,but still I can't say it right. tomorrow is most depressing day, I have to get used to it. I can't stay up any longer. so I'll go to bed, oyasumi--
What I want to eat10/19
right now in japanese food is"yoshinoya no gyuudon"^^; oh my gosh,do I have to wait for it until next june?-_-I'll tell you something, I don't know for people who's living in US,but food you eat in japan is much better than US's,it won't be problem for me,cuz I'm omnivorous*lol*but for many of japanese,sometimes it'll be problem, They have even told us before we came here that we might not like food in US.you can say that again,many of my friend who came to US with me didn't like it,it's kinda greasy, but don't take it wrong.no offence, I like US's food,but(too many buts^^;) please let me talk about one more thing, cake in US seemes kinda just sugar, I suppose you can succeed if you run japanese cake company(like fujiya) in US. well,I have to work tomorrow too, so I gotta go^^ 10月１７日
眠い、眠すぎる だから早く書ける日本語で、といっても もうねるっす 眠すぎる 一日30時間があったらいいのに・・・
Nice 10/17
day, Weather's great, work went well,But it's not everything,2 more thing made me happy, 1st, finally council of program that I'm using to stay here sent information of university which I'm going to in about 3months,OK I'm announcing^^I'm going to *University of California Davis*My friend told me it's kinda big school.^^v I'm excited about it. 2nd, this is great, I went to gym and I noticed I didn't have enought money to get bus($1.25).I only had $10 bill,so I asked every body who's wating bus(like 10 or so),like *does anyone have change for 10?*.I was kinda aware that nobody had change for $10,sure enough, nobody did,so next I go *It's ok if you have only 8or7,I'll give you $10 for it* everybody wanted that deal,but still no one had it,I almost gave up to get the bus then,anyway,I checked my wallet,there's 75cents,50more*lol*I asked them again,*anybody?50cents?**lol* and 2 woman with great sweetness(1000times more than I have)gave me 2 25cents coins^^ great,I was like*thank you thank you thank you I really appreciate this* Anyway I'm sleepy--so bad, oyasumi-----------------! I should have written...;_;10/16
yesterday's nikki,But there's nothing,,,,,, *sigh*-_- Today I went to gym to play basketball,and nobody's there,I was like "what the f..."-_- so my friend who has key for the gym(he must be at the gym every time) and I were there, just *2* so I was gonna play just alone,but he wanted to play 3P game,that you take 15shots from downtown,and you win if you made more than opponent.I beat the hell out of him*lol*of course^^vI don't lose to beginner,But he didn't give up,so I suggested to make a bet,one pop, I won, then he gose,*duble up(if he won,we gonna be even,he lost,I'll get 2 pops)*,,,,I won^^; one more time,,,,,,,, I got 3 of pops.And finally he goes*5 box* I told him he shouldn't do that,but, he didn't listen to me, I guess you already could guess what it went,,,,,I won^^;;; I felt so bad about him, so I told him he doesn't have to give me $5,but pop*lol* My brain ain't working these days-_-no kidding, I mean,I'm struggling with english so bad,I don't know why,,,,, but I can't talk like I used to do,I'm so irritated, damn-_- I saw tragic news from yahoo japan, that 11years girl died of hunger,that's cuz her mother didn't give her a food,that's also because the guy who lives with them(not husband) got sick and had to stay at the hospital,so they didn't have money, but, consider this,Who the hell could be called mother who let her daughter die by giving no food?How could it possibly be?And she didn't even report about that to police till some neighbor found something was going on and told it to police.11years girl hasn't even gone to school,and furthermore,the girl wasn't on the list of inhabitant(citizenship)!!She's completely bitch,I hate this kind of story-_- damn, 10/14??
I did it....-_-, I was so sure I'm gonna do that eventually.But I didn't expect this early, What I did is, to not write nikki, lazinesssssssssss-_- I need more food*lol*I mean,I gotta eat more, I usually skip breakfast,and eat noodles soup every lunch(you can't belive it can you? neither can I^^;I gotta do this for saving my mony, I have to fend with little amount of money),and I eat ordinary dinner(trying to eat more meat these days though),that could be reason I lost the weight.sooooo I gotta eat more. cris(right spell??) who works for fitness gym asked me if I can his report, report's title is differences of cultures kind of title(I guess^^;), so I'll be interviewed.kinda exciting huh? ok I'll stop here. How many...10/12
prefectures have I been? This question just has come up today. well, let me count them.From south,KAGOSHIMA,HIROSHIMA,KOUCHI,KYOUTO,NARA,GIFU,
AICHI,SHIZUOKA,MIE,FUKUI,TOUKYOU,CHIBA,IBARAGI(KI?)......that's it? 13....that's few, and 2 states(OR,WA) nnnnnn -_-It'd be fun if I tour around japan,47 prefectures,I'd love to do that in US,but I'm not so free to do that now.oh well, It's very very nice day today, no cloud, breeze(not gentle though),I'm always happy with windy day.This day reminds me "undoukai"I wanna do that again^^ I finally got new cell phone number,I had to explain why I had different countly number whenever I exchange phone number with friend,and it costs them as a long distance.so now it's gonna be good for them. I'm sorry.....10/11
Today Ryu and I went to gym.and we'er eating dinner at chinese buffet.I was gonna take the bus to get there, and we'er supposed to meet at 7:30.But,but ;_;bus haven't shown up.so I had to wait till 8!! I thought it's baaaad,I can't make him wait, so I decided to take cab and called.But after 15min,It hasn't shown up yet.so I called again,saying"Hey I called 15min before,Isn't it coming yet?" the guy said"Oh I sent one cab, maybe he couldn't find you".I was like "O_o hello? I haven't moved after call at all,How do you think he could miss?" he gose"I don't know".....me"You know what?If you sent a cab,I should've seen it." him"ok,I'll send another one"... and,it didn't show up again-_-Well,they suck.

Jamie told me that people could think of you as if you are not educated if you use that word. oh well, It's ok, cuz I'm not educated anyway^^;
I'm leaving, why? cuz this computer already ruined my nikki.
-_-
Is king of the hill..... 10/9
for kid? or what? I mean, anime is generally considered something kids watch, right? But, I can't possibly think that anime(king of...) is for kids, for my opinion, that's gross! ok I just wanted to say that.^^ It's basketball night,woo^o^// some of good players should come tonight, so it'll be great.I'm so excited.
eminem's new song rules, I'll definitely buy it, gassyuku is called off*lol*10/8
Well, I think I said I'll go to gym as much as I can yesterday. er, I think I lied*lol*I ain't going to gym tonight >_< My boss gave me a ticket for NBA preseason game,Blazers vs frigging Jazz(I hate them). I didn't expect that,rather I didn't know they started to play. I can't compare anything to basketball^^;I'm obsessed. I've just finished covering flowers(for blooming faster),I can get free time from 4:30 congratulations masa*lol* well, I think I should get going, or I'll be late for game. one week gasshuku^^;;10/7
First time I went to gym, I went to there as a guest, this mean,I went to there along with ryuusuke,friend of membership doesn't have to pay for week. so I have one week pass,I think I should go there as much as I can*lol*I'm greedy,
one my coworker brought guitar to my house, and It's still in my house, He wanted me to teach him japanese song,
he likes"shimauta"(sung by The boom),but since I don't know how to play it, I taught him true love (by fujii fumiya)*lol* that's too bad I can't remember how to play other songs, like"sayonara bus, itsuka(yuzu) etc" I just feel like singing now, and sleep*lol*
nemusugiru------ X_X something is worng with me,
*growl*-_-10/6
nemui*lol*I only got 3 hours yesterday*sentence from my teacher*lol**,I stayed up till aroud 4, and woke up 7, work till noon,*sigh* I need some sleep. a-nd my figging crappy
computer freezed when I was writting this, I'm depressed.
Do you think each language has their own characteristic?like attribute.Here is what I'm trying to say, Let's say you can understand japanese and english completely, so you'er bilingual. you watch the 2 movies,those are same one with each other,but they speak in english in one of them, and speak japanese in other, so you'er supposed to get exactly same feeling from watching them, But I don't think you'd get same feeling,cuz I assume english has something more than japanese has, jpanese has something more than engish has too,I can't tell you what I think it is(just can't express^^;even in japanese, I can'tX_X) For me, if I watch 2 funny same movie with different language.I'd probably get more laugh with english one(I'm supposed to be able to understand english this time).I don't know if you guys can understand what I'm saying, but I feel more pleasure,positiveness, funniness with english,Yot may want to say I'm interested in english and japanese is my national language and that's why. we talk about people, like "american are kinda open, japanese are kinda withdrawn"
I feel as if people reflects their language, or characteristic of language affects people. I'll stop bubbling here, I guess my english skill isn't good enough to talk this.^^;I have no idea how many people can understand what I wrote, this is abrupt. I finally can go to bed ^O^/
o-ya-su-mi- Found something^___^ 10/5
I found the books and tapes for studying english like 3 months ago, that's one's who used to live my house before me,his books and tapes.
and today I listened one of them I've never listened. There is husband and wife who are going to japan for his meeting with president of japanese company in story of that book.
and he bought one book about japan. and he picked up what he dose and doesn't. That says.... 1.tone down your gestures and facial expressions. 2don't worry even if the japanese don't give you eye contact when you'er talking. this doesn't mean your presentation is bombing. 3 don't panic when they give you the silent treatment. I just think this is interesting, I mean, I don't know about guidebook of japan for foreigner at all. I do know about one for japanese though, What do you think other country people think of japanese? What's our tendency? to be timid? modesty? humbleness? I don't know^^; at least many people who I know and I don't apply to these,I guess. watching the "manzai" is sooooooooooooooooo fun!!oh my gosh^^but I noticed that they talk so first!! I couldn't even get some words(of course it's japanese), It's getting so popular these days.I'm glad about it.^^ Have you ever tried to play manzai? I have^^v if you wanna see it, just let me know. That's all for today. I had couple of beers besides Smirnoff Ice. not drunk though, oyasumi-----. Is it interesting? 10/4
that people imagine color as you, I mean, if you'er compared to color.or which color represent you?is the way of thinking strange or interesting? today my friend told me that's very interesting. I don't know if other countly people do think that way,even japanese, I don't know,I've thought this idea is familiar to all japanese. till today^^;
some of you might have heard this from me. what's your color?^^ It's friday, people are supposed to do something to have fun, and what I've done was..... er... eat*lol* being laidback, I think that's it, -_- I've just noticed I don't have much things to do at my home. so whenever I stay home, I feel as if I'm wasting my time.maybe I'm. My life would have been so boring if I didn't find basketball. wherever I go, basketball helpes me in some way. I strongly feel that since I came to US. tomorrow, I'll be having drink with my friend kazu who's coming over to my house tomorrow night.It's been kinda long time to me to not have alcohol.I'll only get one smirnoff ice and I think that's all I'll have.^^;but I'm so excited to be able to talk with my friend.It sure will be nice^^ I can't wait^O^// Mr.children を久々に聞いたけど、懐かしーなー*lol* heaven on earth*lol*10/3
what do I mean I said that? well, today Ryusuke(room mate) and I went to exercise gym. and there's something I didn't expect, guess what it is.^^ pool and bubble bath(I don't know if peole call it bubble bath, it's big bath bubble rise from bottom ), I was like "do we have to go back?"*lol*
anyway,it's sooooo nice!! I loved it.
I still don't know if I'm going to go to that gym again,
but I was happy,till I missed bus -_-
we missed bus,and had to wait next one for one hour.that sucked bus wasn't there when but should be there.it's already gone. I have to say I kinda hate about bus that's not accurate. always late or worse sometimes too fifst.
I was having problem with this page, I could solve it with getting jamie's help, it totally worked! now I feel much
nicer^^ thanks a lot jamie what do you think my wweight is? today I weighed my weight, and it's less than150!! can you believe that? I used to be like 160.I though I'm over 160. what eles should I do?I eat meat every day, exercise, I might not be material of getting big body, oh well,I'll see, actually I have tendency of losing weight at summer,
I'm dying. soooooooo sleepy zz--
oyasumi---
I think^^;
I must have done something to this site, now, whole thing is gone, how sad-_- ma-ikka*lol* let's start it over again.
today, I went to clacamas community college to play basketball, since it's getting cold here, I prefer to play inside.I can play at there every Wednesday.
we had 12 people today, that's amazed me,cuz last week,we only had 3 people including me. so I paid 2dollers for just playing crunch*lol*
I also went to michael's house, it's first time I went to there. it's nice house.10 times better than mine^^;
and they entertained me, which was taco of course.
that's delicious. thank you michael.
don't you sometimes feel your brain is not working? me, hell yes.when I was tolking with peter(ex-boss who's retired).I couldn't tell him what I wanted to tell him.
I was like"darn it, I suck"
I have to work on my poor english.seriously.
I gotta go today, it's1:20am.zzz-_-
good night.
