Released from the team - Sep. 29, 2023

I've been donating blood once a month, and it's finally reached 59 times! It'll be the 60th time next month, but unfortunately, I won't be able to make it. I was fired haha. Actually, I received a letter informing me that my blood tested p

Driving makes me... - Sep. 27, 2023

I really enjoy driving. There's a sense of exhilaration when I roll down the windows and hit the road. It's those simple chats with family and friends in that cozy space. I just love the little moments of happiness that driving brings me.

The Castle in the Sky - Sep. 26, 2023

What an extremely huge castle! I had never expected that there was such a big, dynamic, and majestic castle 400-500 years ago. I was impressed by the castle ruins and felt like it must be a castle in the sky. I visited the Oka Castle ruins

Another way of enjoying museums - Sep. 25, 2023

I made use of my day off and visited the Oita Prefectural Art Museum, also known as OPAM, designed by architect Shigeru Ban. Apparently, OPAM has two concepts: the "Museum of the Five Senses" and the "Museum of Encounters." You can't only s

precious time with my family - Sep. 24, 2023

We went to grandpa's house with my family. My cousin, who's in fourth grade, was there too, so we played at the nearby fishing harbor. He used to be so small and cute, but now he has turned into a little troublemaker. It was great to see gr

We're allowed to drink together - Sep. 23, 2023

I had a beer with my mom and dad tonight. We had Budvar from the Czech Republic and Echigo Pilsner from Niigata, Japan. Budvar goes down smoothly. Echigo beer has a taste that falls between rich and light. It's interesting to compare these

my diary looks boring so... - Sep. 22, 2023

I write an English diary every day and post it on "note". I was thinking of using the same header photo for a month, but the homepage looks boring, so I'm going to change the header photo for each post. Today, I went out to eat sushi with

make my own thesaurus to improve my expressions - Sep. 21,2023

When I'm having online English conversation classes, I often find myself using the same words repeatedly. So, starting from yesterday, I decided to create my own thesaurus. I'll use ChatGPT and a thesaurus to record alternative words and ex

Autumn is the Season for Eating. - Sep. 20, 2023

Today, I helped my dad with his deliveries and drove to the bakery to supply them with coffee. This is a customary activity when I'm back home for a visit. I absolutely adore the cream puffs from that bakery, and back in high school, whenev

with my grandpa. - Sep. 19, 2023

I've been back at my parents's home since yesterday. I always go to my grandpa's home and burn incense to my grandma's Buddhist alter. It's my routine whenever I vist there. This time, he asked me "Do you want to drink beer?." "Sure, why no

my anxious - Sep. 16, 2023

In another 6 months, I'll graduate from grad school and start my job. Since I'll be in a sales position, there likely be a lot of social events and I might even end up playing golf for business. I've been wondering if I'll be able to grasp

How can I say "きれいめコーデ" in English - Sep. 14, 2023

When I asked ChatGPT how to say 'きれいめコーデ' in English, it told me phrases like "neat attire" or "smart outfit." Is that for real? 😂 I'm thinking about getting some new clothes for the upcoming autumn season.

my Kindle came back - Sep. 13, 2023

I started reading American short stories with my Kindle. Actually, I got the Kindle three years ago, but I couldn't make full use of it until today. My professor advised me to use it to have quick and easy contact with English. So I recharg

I am determined to score 970 on the TOEIC exam on December 10th. I aim for 475 points in both the Reading and Listening sections. With only three months left until the actual test, and I have to make progress on my master's thesis, things
