Michael Jackson

Michael Jackson was an American recording artist, entertainer and businessman.
He was the King of Pop.
He was a hero.
He was my favorite singer.
He was a grand person.
For me, as a child.

I was really sad about his death.
Innumerable fan grieved about the death of the great singer.
May his soul rest in peace...

Welcome Young Japanese People

Recently, young people don't drink a Japanese green tea in Japan.
I can not believe it. You, too?
Of course, they drink some tea or water.
But they are the bottled drink.
Many Japanese people do not want to use a tea pot.
So most of people use some packed of green tea or powdered green tea, or buy the bottled tea.
Why?
I know.
They think that it's too much of a bother.
Yes, I know.
But you can drink the most delicious green tea when you use a tea pot.
How about a nice cup of tea?

Firefly

I went to Arima in Kobe-city with my family to see some fireflys.
Every year we've gone to somewhere to see them.
Our store is not so far from Arima.
So we went to there on this Tue.
Of course we could see them, but I was dissatisfied with them.
Because we had to see beyond a wire fence.
Arima is the famous hot-spring area in West Japan.
So the area is set out neatly.

Last year we went to Himeji.
That was really countryside.
So we were able to see a lot of fireflys right in front of us.
Next year we will go to there again though there is a little far from our home.

Susan Margaret Boyle is Scottish singer who came to international public attention in 2009 after she appeared as a contestant on "Britain's Got Talent". Boyle became known when she sang "I dreamed a dream" from Les Miserables in the competition's first round, first broadcast in the United Kingdom on 11 Apr., 2009. In final of the third series of the show, she finished in second place, behind dance group "Diversity".
I really love her voice. But after she got the second place, she looks be overcome with loss. And then she went to hospital.
She are frequently reported by the media. So I can imagine about her mind.
But I want to hear her voice again.
I hope she get well soon.

Massage

I was massaged by the massage practitioner on this Tue.
It was first experience for me.
I always do computer work, so I am very tense around the shoulders and neck.
My daughter was worried about it. And she presented me the tickets of a massage shop.
I felt good, but it hurt a little...

Good bye swine flu

It was back-to-school day Monday for the majority of students at 4,400 schools in Hyogo and Osaka prefectures after being kept home for a week by the outbreak of swine flu.
My daughters and son also went to school today.
They feel really happy, especially my little daughter.
Because my first daughter have to take a exam. from tomorrow.
So she does not feel happy so much.

On Monday, the ministry said newly confirmed cases of the virus peaked May 20 and have been decreasing since.

It is also good news for our store.
