news update

Don’t have much time lately to fill in my diary here. Well let’s sum it up

saturday, 17 January

went over 1 night stay in kayabuki mansion. there is a custom here to write something down (of course in japanese) in caligraphy style in the start of the year. what you write of course is your new year resolution.

here is a group picture after we’ve done

after that we do some charity work. we translate a japanese written picture book to english. those book will be send to srilanka to be given for poor children over there.

point of interest :

- I get myself tried a martin and gibson guitar there. Those are quite really expensive guitar so I feel really happy there. And also I could show off some of my guitar skill to several people there .

-The place is in the mountain area. and when we went there by car, suddenly a black nissan (old model though) pass through us with a very high speed. and then after the corner, the car is gone. wow that was fast. I never though could see those action with my own eyes. If you’ve seen or read Initial-D then you’ll know what I mean.

sunday, 18 January

not getting much sleep. just only like 3-4 hours on kayabuki mansion. after that we went home. just when I thought I want to take a nap. one of my brazilian friend called me to eat lunch together. so we went to eat sushi. after the sushi we went to game center.

the game center which we went to is quite cool. so when we went inside we must wear some magnetic bracelet. if we want to play something, we just move the bracelet closer to the sensor provided on each game machine. the cummulative of how much money you spent will be accumulate on the sensor inside bracelet. so when we get out. we insert the bracelet into some kind of cashier machine and pay there before get out.

saturday, 24 january

went to a gym and pool. bought me some swimming pants and cap. the gym is quite nice. too bad the location is quite far from my place. I need to take 1 train and 1 bus to go there. but it’s worth it.

the gym is also quite cheap, considering you get free health consultation, and it also have gym and pool altogether. and the good news is you dont have to pay monthly fee. its just pay per visit. for only 400 yen pervisit this place is very good.

sunday, 25 january

went to japanese conversation class in city library. this is my first class I attended this year. I dont think  I would go again. actually I stopped going the japanese class since november.

after that went to indian restaurant together.

体育館

先週岡崎市体育館に行ってきた。体育館に行くのがはじめてだった。今年の抱負のひとつはもっと体を動かしたいのさ。運動不足だから、体も体力もシェープしたいのだ。

市がやっているから料金は安いんだ。２００円でトレーニング室を使いたい放題。でも安いだから、施設もあまり広くないし、機械も限られている。シャワーも着替え室もないのよ。

ちなみに、このエントリーの特別の言葉は

今年の抱負

いままでずっとその言葉を知りたかった。この前会社の同僚と一緒に鍋パーティーをやったとき習った言葉だ。

4th january, last day in new year holiday

today 4th january is the last day in new year holiday. starting from tomorrow everything back to routine again.

so today I spent my day to visit naruse’s house for lunch. the interesting thing is when I want to go home, the son want to go with me, so me and naruse finally deceived him and I got out through the back door and run to the station before the son had the chance noticing me to do so.

well after that I went with 2 friends (1 malaysian, 1 japanese) to the some kind of ethnic restaurant (indonesian, india, bangladesh food) and finally get taste indonesian food after so long time.

the first floor is the restaurant. the second floor is some kind of mini supermarket where you could buy indonesian, bangladesh and indian food recipes. I ended up bought kecap manis and bumbu indofood.

and that’s it. need to get back to work tomorrow.
