Kami is not god.

There are so many things I want to write. For example about my English score, about relationship between the necessity to study English and automatic translation machine and so on. But I'm kind of tired and I don't have much time left. I have to go to bed as soon as possible not to oversleep. I'm so sleepy and dying. Today I talked with an English teacher like friend. My brain was not working so much. That's why she gave me some interesting topics kindly. I really appreciate it. I talked with her about god. Do you know the difference between god and kami? If you look up the word ''kami'' in the dictionary, you will find the meaning of kami and you will say that kami is god. Of course kami literally means god but this word indicates Japanese eight million gods not christ. What do you think about eight million gods? So many? Numerous? Uncountable?...I have to remember the difference between so many, numerous and uncountable. English is so difficult for me. Anyway, in Japan it has been believed that spilit and life reside with everything in the universe since ancient times. The thought is called animism. As Japanese people have the thought called animism, we cherish all things. But unfortunately if I asked some younger people whether they know animism or not, they could not answer anything. I took this picture a few years ago when I climbed a mountain with my friend which is nearby here. Can you see so many buildings? or numerous buildings? That is Osaka.

It seems to me that all women who are wearing hoop earring are so good person because they can always trust people around them. Were I them, I would not be wearing that in public. I'm afraid of being pulled that for somebody. That's all I have to say today. What do you think about wearing hoop earring in public? If you were able to wear that, you would be accepted as a brave person.

The reason why I want to be able to speak Srpski jezik.

I want to be able to speak Srpski more than English. There are a few reasons why I want to be. The first reason is that I want to talk with Serbian in Srpski. The second reason is that I feel that the Cyrillic alphabet is kind of curious. That's why I want to use it. Я is the most curious alphabet. Я is look like R. But, Я is J of Latin alphabet. It is so cool... and what's more, Я means I. Ridiculous!!!!! Я means not only J but I. Я is asking too much. What a mysterious character... ><;!! The third reason is the most important reason. It may be a little bit funny. I want to say what I want to say anytime and everywhere. But, if I say joking in Japanese or English when somebody have a serious talk, I'll be killed or vanished in the haze. What if I said joking in Srpski when somebody had a serious talk? Probably he doesn't get angry with me. Serbian language is the piece language for Japanese!!! What if I said Imas senzualan glas when we arranged the most serious m...

What for do I work?

When I teach chemistry to my students, they reminded me of my high schools days. Then I thought I wanted to work for people in Koriyama city. If I worked in the city, I could live here. It's really attractive. That's why, I decided to take the job interview. I'm not sure whether or not I will become a public service officer in this city. I like this city. I have lived in Nara prefecture for a long time. That's why I like Nara. The most impressive thing in my high school days is on my way back home. I used to buy foods as shopping center in Koriyama with my friends on my way back home. This is my good memory. Whenever I teach chemistry to my students, they remind me of my highschool days. Then I often think how it would be like if I worked for K-city. One of the reasons I decided to take this interview is the attractivness of this city. For a long time I have been living in Nara prefecture, and I really like it, but in order to change my life it would be good to c...
