Supervisor

I saw my alma mater on the Internet. I wanted to see my supervisor. I sometimes feel I want to see him again. I think he has influenced me a lot and I want to study again someday. The first thing I should do now is to find the work. I want to start working very soon. Maybe I should not choose only what I really want to do. It is difficult to get a job among limited range. I will meet him after I get a job.

Word power

I am glad that I received a post card from a woman of my previous work place. I could know how she looked me. She is very kind to tell me that I am sincere and hard working, and I need some more positive action. She says that she hopes that I can meet a good work place which understands me. What she wrote makes me warm and grateful to her.
I am impressed by power of words.

Smile in the picture

I saw a picture of person who is working for my former work place on the newspaper. He was smiling in the picture. There are 6 pictures in that article and he is only one who had smile on his face. I felt something happy because I knew what kind of person he was. He was very kind and I was very thankful to him about what he said to me. He said that my parents were good. I was very surprised and glad because it was the first time I heard from others that my parents were good. I remembered that I said about the person working in the same place was nice when he asked about him. I think he felt something what I said. I like him very much even now and I think the reason he smiled in the picture is that he thinks about what his expression gives people who receive it. We will receive something warm and happiness from a smiling face. Perhaps he knows that and smiled.

I think I want to smile in every picture taken in the future. Sometimes it may require a courage, but I will try. I will smile in every picture from now on. Because there are surely someone who sees the picture.

job application

I applied a company for teaching job. It looks like interesting because it is a teacher who teaches English to the kids. I think I can enjoy that work because I like singing and dancing. I will have a test for checking my teaching and English skills. I thank them because they will decide whether they hire me or not. If they hired me, they decided that I could work for that job. I will just depend on their choice.

cooking

When I cook boiled dish in a big pan, I have it for about 3 days. It is good because I don’t have to wash the pan every time after finishing a meal. I can do it during the winter because the food keeps good in a low temperature kitchen. If it became warmer, I have to keep the food in a refrigerator. I like to make a stew during the winter. I stew vegetables, beans, fish, and sometimes meat. I think it is easier to make a stew than to make a Chinese dish because most Chinese dish requires high temperature. However, I like Chinese dish because of its rich spices. I like red peppers, herb medicine and nuts. Cooking and eating are the most favorite thing in the winter.

Spring

It is spring on the calendar from yesterday. It has been warmer these days. We have had a lot of snow this winter and it is still on the road. I hope the peak of coldness has gone.

I enjoyed Japanese custom called "Setsubun" which means "between the seasons", I had a vinegar rice roll and soy beans. We hope that the evil will go out and luck will come in. I can see Japanese wooden dolls called "Hina ningyo" which celebrate girls growth and happiness. I think it means happy marriage because dolls are couple. I feel sorry to my parents since I have not married yet but I hope they know I am happy because I live with my dreams and friends. I think I should live for my dreams to be happy myself.
