Hello from Japan

Okay folks,

I finally got ready to write my blog in English. Hope you all could come check this out once a while and leave some note for me to keep in touch.

I still don't know what kind of blog I may wanna write, though. As you know, I have Japanese blog already that introduces some cooking recipe and funny English phrases etc. But here, well, no clue yet. Let me just start telling you what I've been doing so far in Japan and let me figure out later of the niche. give me some tips of what you wanna see from Japan. I can take a small photo or two with my cellphone.

Well, so far, I've been doing almost NOTHING. I started learning bread baking class and simlutaneous interpreting. Those are good for me keep my balance. One relaxes me and one challenges me.

Hey, by the way, it's snowing here in Tokyo. Finally.

Okidoki, guys, stay in touch!

Five more days

Wow, time does pass.

Since the MLB coverage is done, I've been either 1) knitting&baking, 2) catching up with friends, or 3) working once a while. Those are my annual regular things during the off-season. But this year, I have to add one more thing to do: 4) packing my junk. I have two more days to complete this mission until the moving company will come pick up my boxes. So far, I've packed two out of 10 boxes. Oh well, I can finish things by then... supposedly.

While packing each night little by little, tho, I still cannot believe that packages I'm taping are for my moving.

A couple of my friends already asked me the same questions of how come I kept thinking strange of my "returning to my own country." I am not so sure why. But compare to six years ago - the time when I came to Chicago - I am so sure that I feel more strange this time than back then.

I'll see what the reason is.

Count down- six more days.

Hey all,

I've been doing "da blog thing" for a long time, well, in Japanese, tho.
And now, voila. I decided to start one more blog in English. Yay yay.

I'm still in Chicago. But my time being here is nearly up. I'll move back to Japan on Sunday and won't come back to my kind of town to live any more. Well, I'll make one more trip to the US, because I need to clean up my junk. But, you know, cleaing up my junk will be bit different from me having a life here. Hmmm, I still feel weird.

On this blog, I am thinking to write about funny things I may find in Japan. And I may also let you all know how I am doing in Japan. But so far in the next five days or so, I may write about what I miss about Chicago.
