I went to a Korean restaurant with my mother, sister, brother-in-law, and niece. But I came back home soon because of my stomach ache. I'm terribly sorry that I couldn't enjoy dinner!
Our dog Koro, which is 16 years old, seems demented lately. He is always walking in the garden, and often gets stuck everywhere and barks. It was rainning yesterday, but he walked soaking wet.
At night, we diaper Koro and have him staying in our room. I wonder if Koro can live until the end of the year.
I have a stomach ache now. I guess it is because I went out for dinner two days.
Last month, I didn't write my blog so often. So I decided to write it everyday, at least in December. It is really tough for me, but I'd like to try, even though I can write only one sentence in a day.
J'adoooooooooooooooooooooooooooore les macarons!!
For me, not yet.
I got some packages of Windows 7 for my PCs. But they are still not be upgraded. I didn't use Windows Vista. I'm using Windows XP. This means you have to format disk and install Windows 7 on your PC. If you are using Windows Vista, you can overwrite Windows 7 on your Vista. It means you can keep your own settings and compatible applications. However, mine is XP. Therefore, I have to format and delete my properties.
This is a bit hard work. So, I hesitate to install it. And I have one more problem.
My PC is iMac and MacBookPro released in 2006. They have Intel based CPU and chipset on it. But Apple computer will not support 2006 model of them. It means that they do not release any drivers for them.
That's big problem for me.
I'm considering of that resolution.
It is that time of year again, roasting veggies over a camp fire in the crisp autumn air! I am sure there is a treat in store for these little bunnies!!
I love this latest picture of mine
Recently, I started to read the scripts of VOA Special English Web site.
VOA has some features, is written with limited words and easy grammars so that non-native Speakers of English can understand, and the audio of VOA is read out more slowly than normal speed as well.
Despite of that, it’s difficult for me. I import the scripts of VOA into the LingQ site, and then I read them on LingQ, while looking up words and phases that I don’t know in the dictionary. After that, I memorize vocabularies with flash cards test system.
I intended to read them carefully and understand them well. However I couldn’t remember the contents. Though I can remember what I read in Japanese, I can’t remember what I read in English. The contents that I read in English tend not to remain in my head. I need to read them over and over until I can explain the summary.
I'm so exiceted to wait to see the Cirque du Soleil performance tonight, here in Japan.
Fortunately, my place is very close place to Tokyo Disney Resort. Therefore, I can get to its theather in 30 mins.
I went to see the performance. It was awsome!
It is a wonderful show I've never seen before. You can see ZED in Tokyo. It is a bit expensive. However, you should go there if you have opportunity.
I thought I want to write down my deep impression detail here. But it will be better not to do it for the people who are not go there yet.
It's been long long time to visit and type out on the vox. It has been very busy days after baby comes around for 2 yeas. :) The baby growth as a toddler now. She speaks lots of words and even sentences nowadays...!
By the way, I excited to announce you that I've got a amazonKindle generation 2 international version from amazon.com. I've orderd there online and what a surprise it arrived for only few days at our place (Japan) !
amazonKindle is a populer e-book device in the U.S which has a 3G mobile connection tool for download all materials you purchased. Now, it is spreaded to 200 of countries in the world. Japan is one of them. Therefore, I tried to get this one. It will be good to keep me to continue to study English, anyway.
You can buy e-book via 3G mobile network from amazon.com. You can subscribe not only books but daily newspapers, magazines cheeper than paper book. If you subscribe a newspaper, such as NewYorkTimes, monthly, it will be automatically delivered to your Kindle device everyday. Oh, 3G connection is free for download. That's awsome !
In addition to it, you can read such kind of world-wide-famous newspapers, magazines out side of the U.S. I've tried to buy some of newspapers as "current issue". It's wonderfule to read on real time.(Maybe faster than paper one, actually)
amazonKindle also has a awsome text-to-speach function. You can listen the sound of text with mail or femail voices. It is really enhanced computer voice. But my wife told me "That's computer voice, anyway. You should not practice your pronounciation." :) However, I really impressed by these voices none the worse for accenting wrong sometimes.
It will be good function for English learners just like me.
amazonKindle uses special ink for display characters and pictures. This is also watchable technology.
Thank you for reading my poor typing.
Keep in touch with all of you on the vox.
best regards
