deep fall

fall is gradually coming to japan.

the leaves are turning into red or yellow.

on the grand a lots of leaves, look as if they are a carpet.

the right picture is a temple in Kyoto.

i found it at net surfing. your countries have turning color trees?

japan has four seasons , winter, spring,summer, fall.

i love fall the best. because........... all foods are very delicious. hahahaha.

and a temperature is very comfortable for people.

japanese love nature. these weathers bring us lots of admiring sense for nature maybe.

so long time ago, people had lots of Gods ( never only God). for example mountains , water fall, big trees, big stones etc were admired as Gods.

oh my god! hehe.

bankrupt

do you know what this mascot character is?

recently the biggest school teaching English in japan was bankrupted.

the school is "NOVA".

i hear this manager learned at Europe about management .

his theory is increasing the branches here and there in japan.

for them, a lot of teachers from foreign countries was employed .

the newspaper said " it was just only 3 days that they was got the lectures for teaching "

wow....... and the qualities of teachers were down. but the branches increasing was kept.

so the students are decreasing , so more branches ...............lol. and bankrupt.....

i am afraid of the teachers and students . a manager must make oneself responsible.

there is a proverb in japan.

you should not do too much , everything is good of moderation.

i think so.

japanese pronunciation

most of all Japanese can't distinguish the difference of pronunciation "R" and "L".
there is four methods to describe letters .
"kanji" "hiragana" "katakana"　and "romaji"
海　　　　　うみ　　　　　　ウミ　　 umi

"romaji" is used for words coming from foreign countries .

this method is the description that japanese pronunciation translates to english's .
japanese has 51 basic pronunciations.

there is "R" in them. but in real not "R" but "L".
maybe there are'nt "R" pronunciation in japanese. i guess.
but we were educated using "R".
so all of japanese pronounce using "L" in stead of "R"at speaking enlish . i think.

謝謝

whats this? what do you guess?
i guess , its a cat! ..... sorry Fred its joking.

this is the card that my Singapore friend Fred sent me.
it is a beautiful card and handmade in detail , from Vietnam.

this card carried me happy and health.

especially warm filling from Singapore friendship. He is very nice guy , kindness , gentle,
clever........ are you satisfied, Fred? hehehe.

Singapore and japan are so far. but your friendship is just next to me.
my friendship is just next to you.

thanks for your card. it is sure I will become happy!!

but i guess its a cat ........ oh my god.

fall in toilet

oh my shit! i wonder there is an expression. hahaha.

of course not me, but my cell phone.

then my brain is clear, nothing in the memories in the phone.
numbers , address, e-mail- address all pass away. cry.............
no back up.

my cell phone is a prepaid style phone which have to buy a card, and input the ID.
my cell phone remained of 13000 yen right for call.
well i went to a shop that were sold it , negotiated to put the right on the new cell pone.
but couldn't . wowowowow. I would throw 13000yen away?

i never give up...... again i tried to do...... but the answer was very bad, and rude,
i was getting anger, "your attitude is very rude for a consumer and i have the right i would get " said to the clerk.

then she went back to the boss. and came to me.

" sorry we will lend this phone , and add on the 13000 yen paid "

"it's ok." I said. i was satisfied

but there were a strange thing in my heart.

if I gave up , came back to my home....... 13000 yen nothing.

i guess, japanese is stupid, certainly japanese is very polite and don't insist themselves
mainly. especially at paying.

i am not stupid, just poor ...........oh my god.

more than for 30 years

I have been to my home town the other day.
my mother , who is 87 years old this year, lives there alone.
she is very good and powerful.
when i entered into the living room , i noticed an old fan.
it was the fan that i looked at when i was a junior high school student.
wow before 40 yeas ago.
by the way recently in japan we had a problem.
the fan made by sanyo corporation , made more than 30 years ago,
the left pic.
the fan made a lot of troubles, for example the old couple passed away for fire , that was
cause from it. wow my god.
well.......... i wonder my mothers house. i worry .......
but in the other point , i am proud of japanese machine. and japanese technology .

it is working for more than 30 years..................mmmmmmmmm

daimonji

show the bottom six pics . do you know what these are? have you ever seen ?
these are fire on the five mountains in Kyoto.
Kyoto , which was established in 794 by Kanmu emperor, is one of the oldest cities in japan. it has a lot of temples and beautiful gardens.

well these fire ......... for what?

it is the ceremony that we see our ancestor spirits off.
they come back to each home from the heaven in august 13 and go back 16.
it seems this ceremony has been continued from almost 794 .
in those days there were no electricity . all of around us was deep dark, only moon light.
the fire are coming out in dark.
i wonder what ancient Japanese think of then.

where will japanese go ?

my Singapore friend and me chatted the other day. about walking speed. haha
and an escalator too.

he said to me " why do people in Tokyo walk so fast ? and why do Japanese make vacant space when you get on the escalator ?”
surely people in Tokyo walk very quickly.
i guess the walking speed in Tokyo is the fastest in the world.
i wonder how people in the world do.maybe not speedy.

recently we Japanese used to make space on one side to climb the stairs 　when getting on
the escalator. because of busy people. haha.
i don't know when we would do such a behavior though.
when i was child, we didn't do so. we would usually get on and wait for reaching the upstairs.

where do Japanese go so fast ? despite of narrow nation........

this is an old catch copy in public.

i wonder where we go.

maybe go to the death oh my god.

sumida river fireworks festival

on july 28th the famous fireworks festival was taken place at the sumida river.

this picture was taken on the yakatabune in japanese ( yakatabune = the boat with the roof which an old japanese house has.

fireworks look like vain human life.
the prosperity is not eternal, surely goes to ruin.

cherry blossoms and fire works are loved by japanese.
japanese may discover the beauty in the vain.

breath care

i wonder the people that have kissing custom take care of own breath so much.
especial , oral care , for example breath care and teeth care and so on.
i used to see children had the bridge over their teeth on tv in US .
maybe in the countries of having kiss behavior , the oral care is one of the most important things i think. because if their breath are bad smell , when you kiss them your feeling is going to hell. hehehe.

in japan ordinary we have no kiss. so we don't pay　attention extremely.
but when i speak to them, there are some with bad smell breath.
recently young generations do take care of breath. their breath is fresh.
bad is older. specially same age as me. hahahahaha
so i want to take care of oral care without saying you are bad breath.

VERY LONG TIME NO SEE!!

I have been busy for 3 weeks. Why? because I had an another job.

now i have two jobs and am doing them in parallel.

new job is establishing a school for LD or ADHD children.

do you know "LD or ADHD"?

LD is lerning disorder. ADHD is Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder.

have you ever met shuch children?

i didnt know them 5 years ago.

she came to my private school.

when i taught her math, i found that she couldn'd draw a triangle.

she had a normal level intelligence. japanese was good.

but especially math was bad. maybe she was LD.

i didnt know "LD" then, and i thought she was joking and made fun of me.

but she was very serious. i think.

well the times had gone by . and i had a chance to get new job.

it is this job.

english & japanese

do you know what draws down on the paper?

SEA →　　海　（漢字）

can you figure out it?

this is drawn by Japanese woman who writes letters with sumi.
(sumi is made of charcoal)

her name is KUNISHIGE TOMOMI.
nowadays appearing her name in japan.

don't you think eastern and western culture are mixed by her?

origami

what do you think of this?

this is the dragon which was folded with a sheet of paper.

it's amazing. and without a scissors and a cutter.

神谷　哲史 made this good and with 2m square japanese paper.

this model has been showed in the HELMES show window ,brand shop . :-)

he made it for a month. he seems the planning came into his head. he is a genius. i guess.

why don't you fold a paper? i always fold my shirts and under wears. hehehe.

gan kake

gan kake is the habit that japanese stop the most favirite behavior when they wish to gods.

i have a wish. that result will find out clearly next week.

still the time, i will stop doing anythig.

what is anything? you ask me?

yes, it is my secret. i won't tell you.

as soon as i tell anybody that, the god must have just closed his ears.

god hands

you can see the GOD HANDS. this is miracle?

test my video

can you understand my japanese?

if you can do that, you maybe can become japanese really. hehe.

but my camera cant bring you clear screan. pardon me.

dirty japanese women?

can you see what is something these women have ?
not its babies , but it's penises!!!. lol
how dirty Japanese are!! do you think ?
this is a traditional ceremony, and dignity one.
they play the miko ( messengers from god).
ancient Japanese wanted prosperity from soil.
the symbol for the prosperity is penises.

old Japanese were very openly about sex. i guess. there are some penis and vagina symbols in the district area. maybe before the western culture didn't spread around japan, old people Japanese would enjoy to play sex maybe.

that's not epicurean　but as naturist though.

image change

today i changed my feature . i dont say " get operation for beauty". hehe.

yes, today i shaved my goatee. why? to make me new.

but goatee →　just only moustache. lol.

now me, look one younger than before and fat.

oh my god!!.

japanese society is safe?

recently there were lot of bad news in japan.
once upon a time, it used to be said that we japanese are gently and polite for good pints.
and we have no guns. if they have a gun without having licence, they are punished in low.
so few people have guns.
there were not much accident and crime with guns.
butbutbut.........

yesterday the legend was broken by the news.

the news said , " former yakuza (mafia) man shot his family (daughter and son) in nagoya.
he shuts himself with former wife (hostage) up in his house.
and in time he shot the two police officers"

today the news said " the officer died today. he was 23 yeas old. he has a wife and a baby of 2months"

he isnt still captured, the polices is only watching his actions.
if this crime happended in America, he would be shot by official sniper. and end.

but japan has idea the life of men is the most important , so soon not shoot.
yes, that is good idea. but depends on cases.
this idea becomes the aim of other terrorists. especially kidnap.

others news says " a boy aged 17 killed his mother. and he cut her head , into his bag.
then he went to the police station " with his bag. ( with her mothers head)
oh my god!

people in japan will turn into evil. i wonder .

learning english

most of japanese studetns are learning english at school.
but the level is very low as same as me. hehe.
they are learnig it for 4 or 5 hours classes a week when junior high school and high school.
i wonder why we cant speak english well.

fist of all, i think japan is island and are surronded by sea. the location is at east in asia extremely.
nowadays asian can speak english well though, we dont have the circumstances spoken english.
so we dont think english is necessary language. but english is coming common language about economy. same as dollar is strong.

china is growing as economic county, if they are close to capitalism,
we japanese maybe are learning chinese. because of its population mass １ billion 300 million.
hehe.

i was learning english in front of my pc yesterday. on msn.
my teacher is a singapoｒe man.　his english is very fluent. i envy.
i hope to speak english well.
but my aim is not learning english but speaking to people around the world.
and i want to know the various cultures.

languege is only method to communicate others. i think.

Children's day

on May 5th ....... children's day.
watch this picture. do you understand it?
yes, carp . but fake. :-)
why do we japanese do that? do you understand?

because we japanese............ are cats. hehehe

speaking of real, this custom is for praying the good health of children.

well why is carp?

it comes from the china episode. you know the carp is very strong fish, right?
the carp is climbing the water fall and then he turns into the dragon, do you know?
the picture appears the carp is climbing the fall water just now.

yes, thats the reason. so chidren will grow up very strong and breathe a fire!!!!.

jpanese popular items

tofu shoyu umeboshi miso and natto are the most popular.

tofu , shoyu, miso,natto are made of soy beans.
except tofu, are fermented by good bacterias.
so they are good taste.

you should try to eat japanese food.

but umeboshi and natto are not good taste for you. rather bad.
and when you get used to eat them you recognise them very delicious goods. maybe.

my narrow heart

recently my ownbusiness is not going well. i know , because of my idle.
I had workded at the life insurance for 12years and i have been working now business for 19years.
my business is "teaching students" . That is not a public teacher but private.
so i do it at home.
but recently the rate of incresing babbies is slow down. yes, less children.
the reason makes my business depress i guess.
but i am tough , now is when i must do my best.
fail is the mother of success.

otherwise my friend has got a new job, it's wonderful for me. it's his wishing.
but nowadays i cant directly admire.
there are a little bit jealousy in me.

oh, HOW narrow is my heart!!!!!

I am into studying english

i am studying english by myself. we japanese generally had learned english for 6years at shcool .
but that method is not good. when i was a student ( long time ago hehe), we mainly had to read the long stories by obligating. and grammar too. and English was always was exchanged to japanese.
so it took a lot of time. the order of japanese words is very different from english.
japanese oder is "S OV ". but english is "S V O". japanese usually remove S. .... "OV"
so sentense such a "who said? " is very vague.
the most difficult thing is pronounce . i cant listen to them well.

japanese virtue is Modest. but recently the word maybe die.
lately japanese is going to ignorance and unmoving and selfish . i guess.

how do you think about?

frog and worm

watch this pic carefully.
what do you see?
yes, a green small frog & a green worm is like the MOSURA
,which is the great monster in the old movie, with a grass.

and more carefully.
can you a thing on the head of frog?
what do you think about?

hehhehehe

it's a feces. :-) yes, it's the monster's.

I took the pircture at the moment when it defecated .

dead end

my friedn's father died yesterday. he was 93 years old. pretty old.
he wasn't suffered and would go to Heaven .
my father died some years ago. aged 78.
i will pray gods bless him.
buddha ism has principles that spirit off body recreates other thing in another world,
until it can understand what God hope man.

in japan the nature life span is getting so long. maybe it is the longest in the world.
for reasons there are a lot of people over 60's around here.
but they bring huge increasing for their medical cost.
japanese government is annoyed as financial issue
because of decreasing children born rate.
recently one child per a woman.
i wonder how will go japanse social insurance.

april first

i don't hear the ward "april fool" in these days.
when i was a child, i would say a lie that is not serious
to my friends or family.
this custom is nothing ? in japan only?

i am reading the book, which say about brain in our heads, now.
it is very interesting for me.
my principle was upsetted, as if the earth goes round the sun or
the sun goes round the earth.
that's a bit exaggerated though :)

you should understand the work of brain. and you maybe know new world.

seishi-bosatsu

this is the seishi-bosatsu.
bosatsu is studying god before becoming a perfect god.
this is my guard god.
I pray saying "hannya-shingyou" in front of my computer,
because of my wall-paper .

I guess this statue looks very beautiful and thinking deeply .

dont you see so?
