Day 10-16 One Week Report:)

I really need to write before I head off to Yakushima Island)))

Saturday, September 11th.
It was such a busy day! First we went to Asahi-chan's high school to see the school festival! Oh, high school kids! Full of power and energy...which I ALSO have))) I could just become one and go crazy with them))) It was surprising to see non-dyed hair school kids)

We wanted to take Asahi-chan to another festival, so we got permission from the school to take her out of school. Before going to the Setomono Festival, we stopped by at a second-hand shop, where I found this!!! (picture above) They were only 800yen altogether! I have quite a selection of this brand! JOHNSON BROTHERS entertain my dining table everyday:)

So, this is the Setomono Festival, the ceramics festival. Gosh, they were SO CHEAP!!!
It was so hard to choose from. But I got these!!! See the right photo above! Yes! Everything my color!)

And from 7pm I was at my friend's nice and huge house for a house concert. It was such a fabulous night to end the day. Asahi-chan enjoyed her first fireworks in Japan. It was a great day for her too!

Sunday, September 12th.
After a few hours sleep from yesterday, Asahi-chan and I headed off to the Pacific Ocean to see the sunrise! It was so peaceful, calm, relaxing, and beautiful...
Then our whole day was AGAIN, jumping from the rocks at Itatorigawa, Horado, Gifu Prefecture)

We've been here 3 weeks in a row, but I feel the water is becoming colder and colder...and deeper? Today it was so green and clear, I could just see the bottom of the river and see the fishes swimming! I tried jumping off from different rocks from last time. And...I was quite brave enough to do them!  When I jumped off from the rock, which the photo shows down below, my legs shook, when I saw how high it was...and besides, I had all the people watching me jump! Nowhere else to escape but to jump))) It felt really great after I did it.

Monday, September 13th

My daughter was so jealous that Asahi-chan had no school but she did) Asahi-chan slept until noon! She WAS tired alright))) I am too GENKI (energetic) to wake up early every day! I really wonder WHERE I get this energy from.

I feel I am getting more and more younger and active although I'm getting older and older...So, today was a bit of a resting day. Although my daughter had piano lesson!

Tuesday, September 14th

Today it was MY relaxation time. Sometimes I need that. I usually don't stay home though. Always keeping myself busy. There is a funny story that when I stay home all day and do nothing, I tend to catch cold)))

Wednesday, September 15th

At last we have rain! Quite a heavy one, it was...

There's nothing to write but I want to write the changes of my daughter since Asahi-chan came. I am trying my best to always keep an eye on her because she's the kind of child who wants attention from me. I think she has changed a bit because she would take me to another room where Asahi-chan is not looking, to tell me things she doesn't want to be heard) She's our only child so it is good of her to have a sister like Asahi-chan, to experience what it is like to have a sister. I like seeing my daughter and Asahi-chan communicating with their limited vocabulary))) My daughter would try and teach Japanese to Asahi-chan in English, and Asahi-chan will try to communicate with Julie in Japanese. And I'm like a supervisor to correct their English and Japanese! Such an international family we are!

Thursday, September 16th.

I felt like working out today so I went to the fitness club to try 2 classes. One was Body Combat and the other was Zumba. First time trying the 2. And I am never EVER doing Body Combat!!! I nearly fainted while I was doing it! It was a never-ending movement. The trainer wouldn't really give us a break. Absolutely not for me! But I loved ZUMBA!! It had some salsa movements so I think I'm going to enjoy this one. It was a fast and quick movement.

I am taking classes because for my own good. Maybe because I am watching too much of Sex and the City and Desperate Housewives but going into 40s (still have 1 more year to go!) is not bad at all! Even if I am married and I have a child, it doesn't mean that I am going to end up being just a wife and mother. I want to be ME! I want to enjoy my life, and be both a good wife and mother. I don't know if I am a good wife or a mother but it is always nice to dress up nice and look nice from the inside and the outside! I want to see how much I can evolve)

Friday, September 17th.

I went to my hip-hop dance class today. Yes, this is absolutely my way of dance)

People wonder why and ask me questions, "Why do you go so far for a dance class?" I take the bus and the train to get to my class. One hour trip one way. But it's worth the trip! I just LOVE this class. Everything I want is there. I don't think I am a great hip-hop dancer but the music my dance teacher plays and how he teaches us is just so cool! I don't feel any pressure when I'm taking the lesson. And I think this is very important. Besides, I love this 2-hour trip on the way and back. The only time when I can take a nap))) And I am so good at waking up at my stop! I don't know how I do it but I sense my stop)))

Asahi-chan forgot her mobile phone at school and poor her, she walked to school from our apartment because the bus wouldn't come for half an hour. Good that she got to school safely, without getting lost. Unfortunately the school was closed so she couldn't go find the phone. I'm sure she will find it when she goes back to school)

Yes, and from tomorrow we are off to YAKUSHIMA!

Day 7-9 Another Busy Week:)

I promised myself I would write my blog everyday but I could only keep that promise for 2 days)))
Oh, well...

Wednesday, September 8th
Typhoon No.9 hits Japan. The eye of the typhoon didn't pass Nagoya. Whew... But we had rain at last!!! Our summer here in Nagoya was so humid. We needed this rain. It was a blessing. It rained so hard in the morning but in the afternoon, the rain stopped. After the typhoon, it leaves peace...but it also leaves the hot weather...But I really like the sky after the typhoon. The quality is not really good but this is the sky of the sunset after the typhoon!

（台風9号が日本上陸。幸い、名古屋には直撃しなかったけど、やっと降ってくれた雨。雨の日はあまり好きじゃないけど、この夏ほとんど雨を見ることがなかったので、何となく嬉しい。恵みの雨とでも言っておきましょうか。台風が残してくれたものは、静けさと暑さ・・・。私は台風の後の空が大好き。雲もいつもと違う顔を見せてくれる。夕焼けが本当にきれくて、あさひちゃんと写真をバシバシ撮っていたけど、みなさんにはあまりよくこの感動は伝わらないかも。ごめんなさい。高感度のカメラではないんで・・・)








Thursday, September 9th.        
My Thursday begins with listening to my Russian DJ friend's radio show. It starts from 23:59pm, Moscow Standard Time, so in Japan, it's 4:49am! Maybe I'm crazy, waking up so early. And also it's not a live radio show so I can always download afterwards and listen. But listening to it when all the listeners are listening in Russia, I feel I am with them and what is more, I always get energy from his radio show. So it is a MUST thing I should do. And this is what I made:) I am trying to spread him in Japan:) Haha, I am not just a friend, but also a crazy fan:)


（木曜日はいつも超早起きしてDJ Kefirのラジオ番組を聴いています。彼はロシアでも人気のDJで、私の大親友でもあります。録音放送なので、いつでも聴けるのですが、ロシアで放送されてる正にその時間に聴くことに意義があって、5時の放送に合わせて毎週スタンばっています。そして、左のPRは私が作りました。日本に広めようと日々頑張っています。友達だけど、クレイジーなファンかもしれません）

Today I had sado (Japanese tea ceremony) and kado (ikebana - flower arrangement) class. I had a runny nose today so it was so hard to concentrate during the sado class. But this class is always my relaxation time!

（今日は茶道・華道教室がありました。最近夜が涼しい時があって、タンクトップで寝ていたせいで、朝、鼻水がズルズルと・・・。なので、レッスン中は大変でした。だけど、このレッスンは、私のリラックスできる時間でもあります。）






Friday, September 10th
Finally, I could go to my hip-hop dance class!!! I have been waiting for this for a month!  Today I took my American friend to the class! It would be great to have more friends! It takes an hour to get to the class, but it's really worth a trip. I like the music that my dance teacher is playing and what is more, he is a great teacher;)

（待ちに待ったダンスレッスンに行ってきました。1ヶ月くらいご無沙汰だったので、すごく嬉しかった。今日はアメリカ人の友達も一緒に参加。ちょっとインターナショナルになってきたダンスクラス。通うのに1時間かかるんだけど、通うだけ得るものがたくさんある。元気の源！レッスン中に流れる音楽は最高だし、先生も優しくて最高！）

That's it for the week! And Asahi-chan...she's absolutely great! She helps me a lot, always smiling, energetic, positive, and always trying so hard to learn Japanese. I thought she might not improve too much of her Japanese because I speak English but she told me that it would help her mentally because she can always ask me in English if she doesn't understand the Japanese. Well, I was relieved to hear that. But I will first talk to her in Japanese, then translate into English if she doesn't understand. My husband is learning French from her too! She would give a question when he rings the doorbell. If he could answer back in French, he is allowed to come inside!))) This was my idea! Our family is enjoying the life with Asahi-chan!

（今週はこんな感じ。＝もう先週になってしまったけど。あさひちゃんは最高！よくお手伝いしてくるし、いつも笑顔だし、いつもエネルギーに溢れているし、前向きだし、そして日本語をよく勉強してる。私が英語を話すので、彼女の日本語が上達しないのではちょっと気になるのですが、彼女は精神的にありがたいと言ってくれたので、良しとしよう。日本語で分からないところをとことん英語で教えれば、理解が深まるかもしれない。前向きにとらえよう。夫がフランス語を学ぼうとしているので、私のアイディアで、夫が帰宅して家に入る前に、彼女が出すフランス語の質問に答えなければいけないことにした！これが結構見ていて楽しい。）

Day 3-6 Busy Weekend!!!

Too busy over the weekend and lack of sleep, I just couldn't write everyday! Sorry)))
（週末あまりにも忙しく、眠気もあり、ブログを更新できませんでした！）

Saturday, September 4th.
We went to Itatori River, Horado, in Gifu prefecture.
We loved the river so much, we just had to come back!
I've never seen such a green, clear river in Japan in my life! So full of nature!
And what is more, you can jump off the rocks or if you're brave enough, jump of the bridge!
（岐阜県洞戸、板取川に行ってきました。2週連続です。こんなにも美しく、緑で、透明な川を日本で見たことない！ミソは、岩から川へ飛び込めるとういうこと、それと、勇気があるなら橋からも飛び下りることができるんですよ！）

Look how green it is!（こんなに緑！）

Lots of international friends got together. We swam, jumped, and had a nice BBQ! So nice to relax with friends and have a chat!
（この日は外国人の友達が大勢集まりました。
泳いだり、飛び込んだり、バーベキューしたり。
友達と楽しい時間が過ごせました！）

Look! And I really DID jump from a high rock!!!

It was just me jumping from my family.

My husband wouldn't dare do it!

Asahi-chan took this photo for me!

Once you do the jump, you get addicted to it!

I jumped 3 times!

（見てください！外国人の友達に交じって一緒に

飛び込みました！家族の中では私だけがジャンプ。

夫は「無理！」だって・・・。

一度飛び込むと、結構はまります。3回飛び込みました！）

We went for Chinese food for dinner!

Asahi-chan loved it!

（夕食は近くの中華を食べに行きました。

あさひちゃんの口にあって良かった）

Sunday, September 5th

My daughter and I had Sado (tea ceremony) and Kado (ikebana - flower arrangement) lessons in the morning. When we got back, Asahi-chan was studying Japanese!

（娘と私は午前中、茶道・華道のレッスンがあったので、夫とあさひちゃんをおいて出かけました。帰ってきたら、あさひちゃんは日本語を勉強してました！えらいねー）

We had somen noodles for lunch! Good for the hot, hot, summer.

Good that Asahi-chan liked it!

（暑いので昼食はソーメン。暑い時はこれに限る。あさひちゃんは、お箸でソーメンを取るのに苦労していましたが、楽しく食べてくれました。）

After preparing for school and tidying up things, my daughter and I took Asahi-chan to Daiei, the supermarket. She bought a pair of slippers for school (I still can't get used to the idea of wearing slippers in school. In our times, we had indoor shoes.) took "Purikula" (print-club - sticker photo. One of the Japanese culture that I love) altogether, and went to buy some food for our sushi party!

（家族それぞれ自分たちのことを済ませたあと、娘とあさひちゃんとでダイエーに行きました。

ユニクロで彼女は学校用のスリッパを購入。（今は上履きじゃなくて、スリッパを履くんだね。すごく違和感がある。）初のプリクラを撮り、そしてお好みずしの材料を買った。）

Monday, September 6th

We woke up at 6:30am and made ham/cheese and tuna sandwich for lunch.

I took Asahi-chan to the bus stop. I felt like her mother. Seeing a daughter off on her first day at school...

Good that there were some students taking the same bus.

After she left, it was my time again. Did my housework. I was supposed to go to the fitness club for a belly dance class. But my daughter was coming home early((( Couldn't go today. Well, maybe some free Monday...

Asahi-chan seemed to have a great time at school! I was relieved!

She had English homework. Had to translate some words and sentences into Japanese)))

（6時半に起き、ハムチーズサンド、ツナサンドを作った。初登校なので、バス停まで見送った。

娘を送る母の気分になってしまった。同じ学校の生徒がいたので少し安心。

彼女が学校へ行くと、普段の生活と変わりがない。ベリーダンスクラスに行こうと思ったけど、娘が早帰りということをコロッと忘れていた。また、いつかの月曜日に行こう。

あさひちゃんは、学校で相当楽しかったようだ。ホッとしたよー。

宿題は英語。テキストの単語や文を和訳する宿題。英和辞書を引きながら頑張っていたけど、

漢字が読めないので、少し手伝ってあげた。）

Asahi-chan is so curious in everything we do! She is always willing to help. She helped me cooking.

So we had a live cooking class in Japanese:) It's nice to have an assistant!

（あさひちゃんは、私たちのすること全てに興味あり。進んで手伝いをするし、料理も手伝ってくれる。料理に使う表現を教えながら一緒に作る。何か楽しい！）

Oh...French is so difficult to pronounce! Well, I have 10 months, don't I? Maybe I'll be good at French;)

（あー、フランス語はホントに発音するのが難しい。だけど、10カ月あるからもしかしたら、フランス語上手になってたりして？）

Tuesday, September 7th

I went to a friend's house this morning to meet a flute player and a violinist.

I played the electric piano, which I was not used to at all, and played together with them.

I might be playing with them at some cafe someday. It was like a get together & lunch.

It was my first experience. I was the only amateur player so I just had to do my best.

But it was nice playing to the flute and to the violin.

（友人宅でフルート奏者とバイオリニストに会い、私のピアノと一緒に合わせて演奏してみた。もしかすると近い将来、彼女たちと演奏するかもしれない。私だけ、アマチュアプレイヤーなので、私でいいのか不安が残るけど・・・。だけど、いいものだね。生のフルートとバイオリンを聴きながら演奏するのは。電子ピアノがちょっと慣れなかったけどね。）

Asahi-chan came back home by herself!!! Good girl!

She did her homework, went shopping with my daughter, helped me cook dinner, do the dishes, and had a origami lesson from my daughter!

（あさひちゃんは一人で家に帰ってきた！すごいじゃん。帰宅後も積極的にお手伝いをしてくれ、大助かり。娘から折り紙レッスンを受けたりと、すでに私たちの家族の一員！）

Day 2. High School!)

God, it was such a hot day today)
（ああ暑かった！）

We went to the ward office today, to apply for Asahi-chan's alien registration card.
Before going there, we went to a photo box where you can take self-photos.
700 yen for 1 sheet. She needed 2 photos for alien registration (passport size pic) and 4 photos for high school. (3.5cm ×4.5cm) And this machine had explanation in different languages, which was helpful for Asahi-chan.
The registration went quite smoothly. Actually she was the only visitor for the registration)


（区役所に行き、あさひちゃんの外国人登録を申請した。その前に、証明写真を学校用と、外国人登録用と2種類撮ったわけなんだけど、今の証明写真を撮るボックスっていろんな言語が入ってるんだね。それだけ日本に住む外国人が増えてるってことなのかな。まあ、私が知らなかっただけかもしれないんだけど。外国人登録は、私たちしかいなかったので、スムーズに終わりました。）

While walking back to the station, we went to see what they sold in "フランス菓子" (french sweets)
It was a cafe & cake shop. Asahi-chan said they only sold one thing that was French)))
Also said that "Cafe De Terrasse" is not correct. For people like me who don't understand French, it's okay, but she was smiling each time she saw some signs that said in French! Not many were correct)))
I wonder why they use the language wrong? No proofreaders?)))
Even I feel somebody must do something with the English you will see on signs and t-shirts here in Japan...

（駅に向かう途中、「フランス菓子」と書いてあるケーキ屋さんがあったので、窓から中をのぞいてみた。あさひちゃんは、「エクレアだけおんなじだ」とクスクス笑っていた。しかも、看板のフランス語が間違ってたみたい。そのあと、色々目につくフランス語で書いてある看板を見つけては、「うー、違う」を連発。面白いね。なんで、間違ったものを堂々と看板にできるのだろうか。英語で書いてあるt-shirtでさえそうだよ。国際社会になるなら、こういうことから直してほしいなー。）

Before going to her high school, I bought her a brand new pair of chopsticks!!!
And I couldn't stop buying some other things for myself, too)))
The shop "Afternoon Tea" has so many cute things)))

（あさひちゃんに、10ヶ月間使用してもらうお箸を一緒に買いに行って、プレゼントした！
その店にあまりにもかわいい雑貨が置いてあったので、自分の買い物までしてしまった・・・）

After a quick lunch, we took the bus to the high school!
This school has a special English course. That's why they accept exchange students. The students and teachers seemed to be really nice and friendly people.
I was enjoying myself, too) I really didn't have a great time at high school, so everything here seemed so fun!!! Asahi-chan needed complete translation and she was a bit nervous because she couldn't really speak out. But other exchange students came to visit her and the other Belgium boy, so she was enjoying the chatting with her new friends! One French exchange student was so desperate to talk in French, I understood nothing but could see that she needed to talk in her mother tongue))) We rented school uniforms and shoes. Good they had Asahi-chan's size. The Belgium boy is 197cm and his shoe size is 32cm!!! The school didn't have any size for him(((

（軽く昼食をとり、バスで高校へ行った。ここのM高校は、英語科があり、留学生の受け入れもしょっちゅうしているようだ。国際色豊か、しかも自由な校風は生徒を元気にさせ、楽しんで高校生活が送れるようになっている。チャラチャラした子がいなかった、珍しく。私の高校生活は勉強三昧で、いまいち弾けられなかったので、とっても楽しそうな雰囲気が、また私もやり直してみたくなった）））
すでに留学しているオーストラリア人とフランス人の女の子が、あさひちゃんと、ベルギーからきた男の子を大歓迎してくれた。特にフランス人の子は、あさひちゃんがフランス人と知って、大興奮。洪水のように、フランス語が出てくる、出てくる！母国語を話したくて仕方なかったんだろうね。制服合わせもしてみた。あさひちゃんのは全て学校から貸してもらえたけど、ベルギー人の子は、身長197cmの上に、靴が32cm!!!学校側も驚きの連発。）


We made gyoza today! It's fun making it together!

（夕食は餃子！娘とあさひちゃんもぎょうざを包むのに挑戦！）

Asahi-chan never stops studying Japanese) She wrote lots of katakana today.
She even made a special notebook for Japanese. And do u know what? Julie was teaching Japanese in English! I've never seen Julie talking so much in English!
It's nice to see them helping each other!!!

（あさひちゃんは、時間を見つけては日本語を勉強してる。今日はたくさんカタカナの練習をしてた。
日本語の勉強ノートまで作っていた。そして驚くことに娘が英語で一生懸命日本語を教えてた！こんなに話してるの見たことないくらいに。すごいねー。お互い教えあってるのを見ていてほのぼの。）

Asahi-chan is so adorable!

（あさひちゃんはかわいい！）

Day 1. Welcome to Nagoya!

2:51pm JR Nagoya Station. The Shinkansen door opened. And there she was, so full of excitement!
(In this blog, I'm going to call her "Asahi-chan". Her name means "dawn" in French. And it was very difficult to pronounce. So, might as well give her a Japanese name))) )

（名古屋駅の新幹線のホームで初顔合わせ。新幹線の扉が開いた瞬間、彼女が飛び出てきた。フランスを去る時も一番にセキュリティチェックに行ったくらいなので、相当楽しみにしてたんだろうね。彼女の名前を発音するのが非常に難しい。フランス人の友達に聞くと、英語ではdawnという意味らしいので、明け方、つまり「朝日ちゃん」という日本名を与えることにしました！本人も結構気に入っているので、このブログでは「あさひちゃん」と書きますね。）

My first question to her was..."Are you GENKI (energetic) enough?"
It was her very first day but we had a tight schedule! We had to go straight home and get ready for Julie's (my daughter) hip-hop dance class.

（まず、彼女に聞いたことは、「体力ある？」
というのもこの日はハードスケジュール。娘のダンスクラスがあるため、間に合うように家経由、ダンススクールに行かなければならなかったのです。）

By looking at Asahi-chan's facial expressions, by looking at how she would talk, I could see that she had been waiting for this day to come! She had so many questions about the Japanese language she wasn't sure about. And for me it was good also. How to teach Japanese properly and neatly) (Actually sometimes I am not sure of myself!))) ) It was good to see Julie trying so hard to explain things and show Asahi-chan in English!

（あさひちゃんの顔の表情や話し方を見るだけで、本当にこの日を待ってたんだなって思えるくらい、気持ちが伝わってきます。これまでに耳にした日本語が英語で言うと何て言うのか、次から次へ質問が飛びます。私にとっても正しい日本語をどのように外国人に伝えるか勉強できて、非常にありがたい。だけど、意外にそれが難しかったりします。娘も一生懸命、英語を使いながら教えようとする努力が伝わってきます。）

I was pretty much surprised that Asahi-chan seemed not tired at all!
She came shopping with me, she even had fun watching Julie's dance class)
Is this what you call YOUTH?)))
Anyways, it proved that she would get along well with my lifestyle!
I too, am such a busy lady!)

（あさひちゃんは初日から飛ばしまくり。全く疲れを見せない。普通に私と一緒に行動してる。
若いから？）））　だけど、これって私の生活スタイルに合せても平気ということだよね。私も娘以上に忙しい人なので）
She enjoyed settling down in her new room and would study Japanese while Julie was doing her homework! She would even help me go take the garbage outside, dry the dishes, etc....
It's her first day. I told her to relax and rest but she was just too excited)))

（家では、あさひちゃんはものすごく手伝ってくれるし、ひらがなを必死に書いてた。友達や親にメールすればというと、「先に勉強してからやります」だって。感心！）

As a welcoming party, we celebrated by making Takoyaki together!!!
Yeah, we are Kansaijin! Takoyaki is a MUST!!!
Good she loved it!

（歓迎の意を表して？もちろん関西人ですから、たこ焼きをみんなで作ったよ。
非常に喜んでくれました！）

I think I'm going to have a great time with Asahi-chan.

New Member of Our Family - Coming Real Soon!

Tomorrow, (oops it's already today) we are going to welcome a new member to our family!
A 17 year-old French girl is coming to stay with us for 10 months!
We are going to be her host family! It's our first experience! We are so excited!!!

(明日から我が家に家族が一人増えます！赤ちゃんではないですよ。17歳のフランス人の女の子。ホストファミリーになったのです。初めての経験で、期間は10カ月！長っ！と皆に言われましたが、
全然気にならない。むしろすごく楽しみ。）

Oh, first I must introduce myself. I have a great husband, and a cute 7 year old daughter.
My husband knows me since I was 18...so that means he knows quite a lot about me) By the way, I'm 39.
And me...I grew up in Melbourne, Australia. It was only for 4 years (from 6 to 10) but I think this 4 years
was everything. The life in Melbourne has created the ME now. I love mixing with people from all over the world. I am too energetic, never home, always searching for fun and exciting things to do. I feel I'm getting powerful and younger each year))) There are so many things I want to write about myself but you will get to know me more when you start reading my blog.

（自己紹介が遅れました。私は39歳の主婦です。フリーで通訳・翻訳をしてます。大学時代からの付き合いの夫と、7歳のかわいい娘がいます。私は6歳から10歳、オーストラリアのメルボルンで育ちました。この4年間が今の私を作り上げたと言っても過言ではありません。とにかく私は元気いっぱいで、楽しいことは何でもしたい、してしまう性格の人で、家にほとんどいません。インターナショナルにいろんな人と付き合っています。このブログを読んでいくうちに少しずつ私のことが分かって頂ければと思います。）

I've never missed writing a journal since my wedding day. But the life in St.Petersburg in 2008 was so fun and exciting I had no time to write anything. Only could send a monthly report to friends via e-mail. So since 2008, my journal is a complete blank. What a waste...And now, I think I will write again every day because from tomorrow we are welcoming this French girl. I want to write about the life with her.

（結婚式の日から欠かさずつけていた日記を、2008年のロシア・サンクトペテルブルグ生活が始まってから、ぷっつりやめてしまいました。忙しすぎて・・・。結婚して10年以上もつけていた日記をやめてしまうのはもったいない。なので、このフランス人の子をきっかけにさせてもらい、日記を、今度は手書きでなく、ブログにて書いていこうかと思います。）

So...I hope you keep reading my blog:) I need to sleep, to get ready for tomorrow!
My daughter and I will meet this French girl at Nagoya Station!!!

（とにかくこの夏休み、超多忙で、寝不足なので、お肌の為に寝ます。
明日、彼女を迎えに名古屋駅まで行ってきます。）
