Fair ride


Today, our store was OFF.
So I went to go to the amusement park with my family.
The name is Tojyokoland.
That is not a big park, and there are not so many fair ride.
But my daughter likes there.
But she didn't like a white-knuckle ride last year. It is great height and speed.
When whe rode it with me, she lamented aloud.
So I think she will not also ride it today.
But first of all, she rode it with her sister.
I was really surprised.
I don't relish doing...

Running school


Today, my daughter took a running lesson.
The teacher was Mr. Asahara.
As you know, Mr. Asahara is a Olympic athlete.
He is a famous sprinter in Japan.
The lesson time was a just short time. So I'm not sure whether she can understand a good form. But it's sure she enjoyed a tag with the great athlete.
I also want to play a tag with them.

Engagement


My brother met his fiancee's parents yesterday.
Until recently, I have thought he's a quirkyalone.
Because he looks like to enjoy his bachelor life.
He lives alone in a skyscraper condo in Tokyo, Japan.
He enjoys an elegant lifestyle.
But finally, he met loved one.
I also met her, and I am favorably impressed.
Congratulations on deciding to tie the knot!

Graduation!!


When I drive to go to my store this morning, I saw some people wear the ceremonial garment. They look like to go to a graduation.
There are some kindergartens, elementary schools, and a junior high school near my home.
I bring back memories when my daughter and son graduated from their school.
Especially, when my son graduated from his elementary school...
He has a girl friend. She has a serious disease. So when she was 4th grade, she almost could not come to school. 5th grade, also...
But she has been battled illness. And finally she can come to school many days when she was 6th grade.
And when it was graduation, her mother made a speech. She said "I am profoundly grateful that she is living now!"
All of mothers were very moved by her speech.
I also want to say "Thank you for my children."

Kendo


My nephew passed the college entrance exam.
He has been practicing his swordsmanship from a young age.
He is Japanese art of fencing (Kendo) player.
I heard that his practice was too hard in his high school.
So he said he want to drop out Kendo when he will be college student.
But actually, he choose the college that is well-known about Kendo.
I think he will also play Kendo in his college.

Bad breath


I went to the dentist, because my small silver tooth came off.
I had terrible childfood dental experiences, so I don't like the dentist.
But now, Dentists have changed.
They don't drill unless they really have to and they play nice music in the background.

By the way, sometimes do you feel your bad breath?
Of course when you don't know the cause, you have to go to the hospital.
But if it is the bad breath caused by bacteria in the mouth, I recommend you to drink tea.
Especially, when you feel too bad in your mouth, please try to eat green tea leaves.
It is immediately potent. I recommend you Fukamushi-cha.
Please try it...

Jeans


I went to the shopping mall with my family yesterday.
The mall is the biggest shopping mall in western Japan.
We can enjoy shopping, but we could not quickly find our favorite store, because there are many stores in the mall.
Finally, my son wanted to buy his pants. He has not liked the jeans until yesterday, because he hates tight-fitting. But yesterday he looks like opening his eye about jeans. He bought it and he will put on the jeans every day...every day??
