YMCA

I became a member of YMCA , a sports club.

So I could have excercise any time I want to.

Though , I like running and muscle training I have no time to continue them in Japan.

Tiking this opptunity, I will have them as much as possible.

Lethargy

I have fatigue today.

And I was very sleepy during daytime.

What's wrong with me? I'm not sure.

I should be slightly tired of this life in America.

Though I have very happy days, all the same, stress of a new environment give me fatigue.



I hope the things will be getting better soon.

Obama sweeped the election

Obama won the presidential election.

And the U.S. have gotten a black president for the first time since the birth of the nation.

This is hisitoric and joyous election.

I hope he will achieve his job being expected.

The presidential election

A presidential election had taken place today herein America.

I get the impression that Japanese media cheer for Obama.

But Leslie says the Japanese goverment is giving MkCain a boost.

Because he is on the conservative side and he will push for remilitarization of Japan.

I wish I could have a election franchise in America.

Back to Ann Arbor

I've come back to Ann Arbor.

It took about 13hours by air. I was very tired.

Fortunately, I could have sleep in the airplane so I have no jet lag syndrome.

Hachi the faithful dog

Today I had a surgical board examination in Shinjuku.

After that, I met my friend and went to Shibuya.

My friend had never seen the statue of "Hachi the faithful dog" .

So we went to Shibuya to see it. I have seen it before but every time I think it is very small.


After visit this, we went to Shinjuku and had "Tonkatsu", the breaded pork cutlet. Though the pork was good but we tried to make it be with green tea.

That tasted terrible.

Shimokitazawa

I went to Shimokitazawa to visit my friend's house.

This is my first visitting to "Soba noodle restaurant KURIHARA"

Ryu's father is a Soba worker and he has a very smart restaurant.

It has a ceramic factory in the basement.

I met Ryu, Jin, Ryu's girl friend, Araki and Araki's boyfriend.

I had many delicious cuisine made of soba.

I had very good time.
