Welcome a new year 2007

feel happy to welcome a new year.
I thank everybody to help and support me in 2006.

I could do my best in 2007 also because family,friend,colleague kindly contact me frequently.

year 2007, it might be challenging such as buying a car, finishing a project of work, extending a work contract or change a job, lots of things which are not fixed is waiting for me.

oh, I should say to thank a country of India, because living&working in India inspires me and teaches me a lot in various fields.
Now I can say my decision to come India is great and correct choice.

Tomorrow I will see a sun which comes up from bay of Bengal.
I really wish weather will be fine then can see a sun.

well, again I'd like to say Thank you all and keep in touch with me in 2007 also.

PEACE

Drinking?!

You know here in Tamil Nadu,
most of the restaurant are not allowd to sell an alcohol drink. if a few can sell, most of them can sell upto 10 or 11PM.

only very few restaurant can sell whenever they want.

so if people hold a party,
most of the cases, they do at their house...


my house owner is a paster who said to me, never bring alcohol inside of my house...

oh where can I drink after finish the work later night.

suppose in japan, on the way to home we drink until the last train,,, here in Chennai, never do it.

well,
be nice.
no more complainment.

jya!

beach running

i would like to show a beach photo to you all.

this is where i always run on every weekends.


"put photo on here"


well, imagin local people are sitting just beside the waves. what they are doing is they do "No.2"..

in those sh*ts, i was running.

and it smells not good in there.
bad smell is come from center of chennai.
exaust gas, burning air,waist smell...

but just next moment, local child speaks to me with pure smile, "Hi!".
it always makes my feeling better, and makes my running speed faster.

so my life in India is mixed of good and bad moment.

but i feel, most of bad feeling is coming from bad environment.
most of good feeling is from people's attitude or smile or kindness.

so i can say,
in India,
people are really nice but environment is worse.

BTW,
today's dinner i used my hand to pick up food like indian style. it's nothing special. because i have done since I came to Chennai.


haha.

first experience is the rainy season(wet season).

oh, it's terrible.

most of this week, a raining continues.
it looks like "tsuyu" in japanese word.

but i feel here is more heavy than japan.
the reason is savage system is not completed in here, so that lots of water remain on the road, it becomes the river , then becomes the flood. yesterday morning around office there was less water on the road, 4 hours later at lunch time, the river appeared everywhere!

I took off shoes then went to restaurant, it tooks double time than usual. wiped out pants then walked with naked foot.

yesterday was the first day the river appeared.
people looked like funny they were in the river on the road.
but i guess if it will continues for a couple of weeks, people would be tired of it.

actually for me, i feel stressful because i can't exercise on weekend...

as a business trip, i may go to Tokyo for a short time.
what i wanna do first is to cut my hair.

and go to "Izakaya", haha.
I am definitely "syomin" people, haha, not "high so" people.

Watami, Matsuya, Yakiniku...

finally i will shift to new place....

hu-..

today, on Saturday I went to see a house whether i like to live or not. it looks.... not bad..actually indian standard house.
for me, lower than japanese standard, but, here in India,
shouldn't compare everything between them.


just accept the real.


then need effort for making it better if i want.
since i have started to look for a new place, it took over 2 months..

We have to pay a commision fee if we look for through a brooker.
normaliy it costs as same as one month rent fee.
and have to pay advanced fee. it's almost 8 months amount of rent fee...

money isn't matter, privasy and time is more important.
and free...

from next week, again i feel excitment like biggining when i came here..


viva new indian life!

indian is great

wow one of my wish is to feel good inspiration.
actually lately, i feel a lots.

because company japanese trainee learn japanese then they will be able to speak fluently in a half year.
i thought it's easy. and everyone can do that.

but i was wrong.
learning new language is quite tough.

"sorry japanese trainee, you are all great!"

why i feel like this is now i start learning local language.

"tamil"

quite tough, acutually....


I respect for japanese trainee now.
