My Lovely Baby

....actually not "my" :D .
I went to my friend's house to see her baby.
She was sooooo cute and nice and sweet!!!!!
But she was a BABY. She sometimes got fussy and cried.
Baby: Waaaaaaaaah!!
Peach:Oh, what happened??? It's OK! It's OK! Don't worry! Don't cry!...Boo, boo!...Please smile again for me!
Baby: Waaaaaaaaah!!
Peach: *sigh*

I couldn't cope well with the problem.
...just kidding:D.
She sometimes looked uncomfortable, but she became in a good mood again very soon!

I remembered Krissy's electronic baby. I think she did well. She was perfect. She never shook the baby...is it right, Krissy? :D !

Have a lovely day:)

I'm feeling a little sad, because I really had a great time there....

Gorie-Chan

Mr. Yum Yum's favorite Japanese comedian "Gorie" went to California on business. I watched it on TV today.
She was so hilarious as always. She's VERY good at dancing, popular in Japan and looks like a gorilla :D! (but somehow she's cute).
You can see her photo at Los Angeles Airport.
She is the "Official California Tourism Ambassador" from Japan.
I'm not kidding...

I think you can also find her photo on Google. Just type in "gorie california".
Are you interested in her/him, no?

Have a good day.*pecori*

("Pecori" is Gorie's bowing sound :D *pecori*)

MSN messenger

I started studying Spanish over the internet. Some of my language-exchange partners asked me whether I could use "messenger".
"Messenger?????? It doesn't sound familiar.... WHat's that????"

So I asked my friend about it.
"I got it :D !!!! Thanks!!!!"
I rushed home and installed it immediately. I started using it even though I didn't really know how to use it. I came across my new L-E partner who is living in Spain.

"Hola!!!! Soy Peach!!! Como estas?"

We had a nice conversation for around 1 hour....in English ( Spanish is still difficult for me xD!!).

Bueno, ahora tengo mucho sueno*yawn*.
Sweet dreams!!!

"yum yum" assignment

This morning, I received a new assignment from the States via email.

My new mission is "finding nice home-made ice cream and bagels in Ginza, Tokyo".
Yep, it's from my "super yum yum yum" friend. I'm not talking about my "yum, yum"cat :D. He is definitely a human being!
He's my good adviser who always inspires me and suggests some nice ideas about my new adventures.

"OK! Copy that!!"

....you know? I like "24" and "Charlie's Angels"!!

"Hello angels!" :D
"Hello, Yum Yum!!" :):):)

Friday

It's TGIF!!!
I don't have to work tomorrow!!!!! I'm freeeeeee!!!!....I'd rather say I'm feeling free right now. I actually have an examination this Sunday, so I have to study tomorrow.

Oh, welcome to my site, Emma!! Nice to meet you!!
"Am I tired of writing Japanese??" NO, not at all!!! It's a piece of cake...no, no, I'd rather say it's my pleasure:)

It's for you! It's "Katakana + Hiragana" design.
Don't you think I'm getting better :D ????

You and Amber are good friends?? Oh, sounds nice!

Special Order

There was another order today.
Ok, it's my pleasure to make your Japanese name plate.

Here you are, Krissy!!
I hope you'll like it:)

means *Krissy* written in Japanese "Katakana".

Oh, it's dinner time, I gotta go.
Have a wonderful day! and hasta manana, amigos! :)

Your Name in Japanese

It was the first time that I was asked to write something in Japanese.
Oh,o, oh! wow... I was a little surprised but I'm happy to know somebody is interested in Japan.

Here is your name, Amber. I wrote it in KATAKANA. We have 2 kinds of phonetic characters: HIRAGANA and KATAKANA. I chose KATAKANA for you. It looks much cuter than one written in HIRAGANA.
I hope you'll like it. If you like it, please take it to your home(right click and save it in your PC)...or if you don't like it, I'll erase it as soon as possible.

Stay cute:)





P.S. I made another one of the same design as your best friend, Emma. ('Cause I REALLY like hearing about "best friends' stories". Thanks! ) Oct 21, 10:02am

"Katakana + Hiragana" version.


P.S.2 It's for Lucy.

Pumpkin

I still have a slight sore throat, but I've got over jet lag. I'm feeling much much better now. Today, I dropped by my favorite Starbucks after work. That is located in an amusement park. I can see a brilliant shining merry-go-round while I'm sipping coffee. It's so beautiful...
I wanted to order a "Pumpkin Spice Latte" which is Starbucks' seasonal drink right now. I enjoyed it in Canada and Chicago Airport. Hey, Pumpkin Drink!!! Please remind me of my happy time in Canada!!!

But I noticed the seasonal drink in Japan is "Caramel Mocha". There is no Pumpkin at all!! Why caramel???? It should be Pumpkin!! Halloween is coming soon also in Japan!!!

Does your favorite cafe have seasonal pumpkin drink right now?? Sure?? Of course?? Oh, I'm jealous!!!!

"yum, yum" cat

I'm still suffering from slight jet lag. I was so sleepy, so I fell asleep this evening and then I woke up just before midnight...I can't sleep right now, ok I'll write today's blog.

One of my friends told me that maple syrup might be perfect for a scoop of cold vanilla ice cream.
Oh, sounds good!!
I poured it on Haagen-dazs "Macadamia Brittle" ( macadamia ice cream is my favorite one!!). Oh, it's terrific!!!....yum, yum, yum.

"yum, yum, yum?????" n?? sounds familiar to me. I think I've heard that before....
Oh, I remember!!! That reminded me of my cat in my hometown.
She said "yum,yum,yum" whenever she ate, especially when she was starving.
My mom and I thought she was saying, "uma, uma, uma!!!!(means yummy in Japanese)".
Oh!! She was speaking English!!??? She was bilingual??? She was talented???
I didn't know that!!

Ok, I have to go to bed even thought I can't fall asleep.
Good night:)

Love Letter from Canada~~~

I bought something for myself and sent it from Canada.
To tell you the truth, it's much nicer and much more expensive than syrup...
Can you guess???



It' my first "King Salmon".
I heard king salmons in Canada are much nicer than ones in *****(oh, I can't say that...).
When it arrived at my apartment, it was completely frozen. I thawed it a little and cut it in 3. And then, I froze it again. I can keep them and enjoy them three times....with my sister or friends or Mr. "super yum, yum, yum" or anybody.
Before I froze them, I tasetd a tiny piece of it..wow, it was so rich and oily!!! Is this really a fish?????

Canada 6day

I left our hotel at 5:30 am. *yawn*

I had a really great trip this time.
Thanks and bye-bye to Canada!! XXX

Canada 5day

We arrived at Montreal in the Province of Quebec.
People speak French. This town seems like little Paris.


This cathedral is a symbol of this town. Celine Dion's wedding ceremony took place here.
It is a very popular wedding place, so if you want to have a wedding ceremony here, you should wait in a long line (for a few years!!). And you also have to invite more than 700 guests. But it costs just about ten thousand dollars (= a million yen). It's not that expensive, is it?

Canada 4day

I went to Laurentians today.
The autumn foliage was terrific!
This is the most breathtaking landscape I've ever seen...

Canada 3day

We went to the Thousand Islands.
There were a lot of small islands in St.Lawrence River and we saw billionaire's cottages built on them.



This is the most famous building in the Thousand Islands.
It was built by a rich hotel owner. He planned to dedicate it to his beloved wife. But just before it was completed, she passed away. It's kind of sad.

Canada 2day

It was scorcher today. We looked around Niagara Falls.

Horseshoe Falls


American Falls

Wednesday, October 05, 2005

Canada 1day



We have arrived at our hotel in Niagara Falls just before midnight. We were a little tired, but we went to see Niagara Falls lit up in red, bule and green. Around there, it was like drizzling because of the smoke of the waterfalls.
It is kind of chilly...A, A, .....Achoo!!

Departure

I'm leaving for Canada today. Passport ok! Camera ok! OREO ok!
As you know, currently airport security checks are very strict when you enter America. Even though we're only entering American airport to transit, we have to leave our suitcases unlocked. I can't believe that!!
Anyway, I'm going to take lots of photos and post some of them on my blog. So please look forward to seeing them and my new adventure stories.
Well, it's time to set off.
See you then, bye!

"rivet-rivet"

I got a terrible cold last week. I had a sore throat and finally I lost my voice..
I went to see a doctor. As he looked at my throat, he shouted, "How awful!!!....You should take this medicine as soon as possible". He gave me antibiotics. I should have gone to the hospital earlier....
I was absent from work for two days (Thursday and Friday). I took some medicine and have slept for four days...
My voice has started coming back but sounds bad; it sounds like a frog's voice....
