Already JULY!

Actually, today is July 1st in Japan.... I am little bit nervous about going to apply for VISA next week on Thursday.... wish I am not worried about this so much....

Well, today... I will go to have fun playing Pachinko! That will be fun and good way to spend a day once a week or so... lol Only Japan I can play it... lol

Well hope I will not lose a lot of money.... ahahaha

here is what I will go for...

Supre Sea Story Okinawa 2

I like this cute characters... lol

Well hope I will have a fun time!

What's going on....

I am so happy for today in the morning, which I can enjoy have free time for myself. However, I didn't have much things to do.... so I decided to watch some TV, and cleaning. Then I went to Minamata City for taking care of my mother's car. After that, it was really bad raining around here.... I got really wet and hate it. (ToT)

I wish I didn't need to do anything... lol

Well hopefully, I have a lot of fun anyway.

Oh by the way, in Japan having a lot of earthquakes everywhere... Also, several concern is coming out too... Well, I guess it should be ok...

I can not wait to go back to Greenville, NC

It looks like...

Outside is really great weather around here, and I am so happy to see that anyway. However, it's way too hot.... (ToT)...
(外はすごくいい天気で、自分的にはすごく嬉しく思います。しかし。。。ものすごく暑い！かなり暑い。)

Well I am ok for that and it's really good weather anyway, just only hot and humid too much. lol I just need to think what I can do and when I can clean house anyway.
(まぁ、こんな天気が続くのもいいと思っています。天気がいいのはいい事だ！ただ単に暑いという事と湿気が...ものすごい。。。まぁ、今からはどう過ごすかとどうやって掃除をしていくかを考えなければなりませんが。。。)

here is today's one picture!(今日の一枚)

outside from my house

I think you can tell it's nice weather and good way to go outside if you like to just hot and humid.... Well I am living in countryside so it's like this anyway.

I hope we will have some rain or cloudy days so I can clean my house for not too hot! lol

earthquake....

Actually, tonight in Kumamoto had Magnitude 4.1 earthquake. I didn't feel it anything because I was little bit far from center of the earthquake, but I was surprised that new when it came on TV. Also, I check it on website it showed that Kumamoto's earthquake. wow

here is the picture of it.

earthquake map from tenki.jp

I think this shows around here still active earthquake and need to prepare for earthquake anyway.

Hopefully, no one had anything damaged.

got new stuff...

I got one new stuff. that mean it is without me there in Greenville... lol Also, I even didn't know that when I order, and it comes to there... so I was surprised about it.... My roommate told me that it came to there at my apartment after I left, and I was not sure what it is... but I think I remember that I order it. :)
(私は新たに一つコップとソーサーをゲットしました。この事は自分がグリーンビルにいないのにそこに来てしまったという事です。アハハ。それに自分では頼んだ事をすっかり忘れていました。そして、突然アパートに来たのです。自分でも驚きました。ルームメイトが知らせてくれて初めて新しいアイテムが来たという事を知りそしてそれが何わかりませんでした。)

I am happy to see it, and here is what it is

Fire King Cup and Saucer..

well tell me what it is... since I don't see it yet... ;(

Bad, good, between?

Weather was not good this morning, and I was walking my dog in the raining..., but one or two hours later, weather was getting good and had sun shine comes out. It was better than I thought of it. Then evening, it was not much better ... just between good and bad. So today was strange weather around here... lol

Well I am ok anyway lol

Hopefully, this week I will have better weather, so I can start working on cleaning inside my house!

This is what I see a lot of time from today, and I have no idea how long this weather last. ahaha

Went to Antique Store

I went to Antique Store in Kumamoto, it was first time I went to there, but I felt like not first time I visit there. Also, the store owner was so nice and great person. I first time someone in my home prefecture to meet a person to have some nice meeting!
(私は熊本にあるアンティークショップに行きました！初めて行った所でしたが、初めてでないような感覚になりました。店主の方はすごくいい方ですごく嬉しかったです。初めて自分の地元であった方でいい出会いをしたような気がします。)

I took some pictures, which not much to took, but I want to post here.

ファイヤーキングのターコイズブルーです。

お店に入る所です。

However, it's way too hot! I can not believe that much hot.... Well, I am sure this weather won't be long time for these days, because Typhoon is coming near here... lol

I hope I will have a good time!

Oh, I think I will go to Antique store in Kumamoto this Saturday, and maybe  take some pictures there. I will up here if I go there! I promise that! ahaha

Hopefully, I will have a good time!

今週の土曜日、熊本市内にあるアンティークショップに行こうと思っています。アメリカにいる時に見つけてブログで話をしたりしている店長さんがやっているお店です。結構楽しみで日本に帰ってきたくらいですから。。。(^o^)v

また、今日６月２３日はいろいろとやっていたような感じです。でも部屋の片付けや髪を切りに行ったりなどして過ごしました。なんか日本に帰ってきて充実してる１日だと思いました。

In Japan

Today, it was first day of staying in Japan, and I was having a great time! I think that was really good and I like that though. I came back to Japan at 5am this morning, but I actually come back to home around 12pm. Because I needed to take another flight from Tokyo and it was 2 hours flight then I took bus and my mother pick me up. Well, but still better than most of my previous trip back to Japan.

YEAH, I will have a great time in Japan!

I will go to visit "nico" ahaha

日本！

さて日本の朝５時です。ようやくつきました！どうにかこうにか大丈夫でした！

I am arrived at Tokyo Airport in Haneda!

I am ok now! hopefully, I will have a safe another flight! Today is June 22nd, 5am in Japan

FLIGHT ....

Taking flight will be long time to go back to Japan... 

I left Raleigh and went to Cleveland, OH then were going to Los Angles, CA

After that I left CA around 1:10am then arrive at 5am in Tokyo and take another to Kumamoto at 8am.

finally arrived at Kumamoto is 10am.

So wish me luck!

Have a great flight to Tokyo!

Well enough...

This is last one day before I won't see  my collection for two months...!

I am little bit sad to not able to use or see them, but I am sure I will be ok.

コーヒー(coffee)

Today, I made several coffee with several different cups.

I was wondering which one would be looks good with coffee and make me happy... but I couldn't decide it after all. That was stupid, and I am sure that was wasted to do.... Well, I found one thing, I like to see all of them.
(今日はいろいろなコーヒカップでコーヒーを作ってみました。どのコップがコーヒーを注いだ時においしそうに見えるかを考えてみようと思いやってみました。でも、どれもおいしそうで決める事ができませんでした。とてもバカな事をしたなぁと自分で自問自答をしてしまいました。本当にバカな事をやっています。しかし、一つだけわかった事は！どのコップだとしてもおいしく楽しく味わえた事です。)

Rebound (Japanese Drama)

I really like this "Rebound (リバウンド)" Japanese drama. I usually like to watch a lot of drama, but it's only 11 or 12 episodes. Japanese dramas are usually 11 to 13 episodes for most of them. Well, I like that way so I can see a lot of dramas in the year.

Oh come back to my topic. The "Rebound" is a good drama to watch for me, and it is so fun to watch when I have free time. Also, that drama make me laugh a lot.

ここから日本語で
リバウンドというドラマが今日本でやっています。このドラマを見るのがすごく楽しみです。しかし、１１話か１２話くらいしかないんですが。。。日本のドラマのほとんどは大体１１話から１３話くらいしかないんです。まぁそれはそれで良いと思っています。なぜかって？いっぱいドラマ見れるじゃないですか！

おっと、話を戻します。リバウンドはとても面白いドラマだと自分は思っています。そして自由時間があるときは楽しくなるので見る事にしてます。それにずーっと笑っているのがこのドラマのいい所です。

今日は少し疲れてるみたいなので、この辺で！

Rebound

This is what it is drama I am watching it :D

got some fever?>_<~!

OMG! I can not believe that I got some fever today... But I am sure it will be ok. I sleep all day long, so should be ok after all... lol

I hope everything is ok after all... I bought some souvenir for my mother, but it's cost me around $250... :( too much lol

Well hopefully it is ok.

Now, fun nights and days!
