Nothing happened lately, at least nothing that I could write about and people would read without getting bored. I tried to remember what the journals that I correct usually say - games, traumas, dream trips, and so on - and I realized that all I was missing was creativity. Unfortunately, I didn't solve that problem yet, the fact that I am sitting in front of my laptop for 23 minutes and just wrote 4 lines proves that, so I will just copy other people's ideas and tell you about my routine. It isn't very interesting, but it's what we have for today.
I don't have an alarm clock, but I wake up early anyway. The first thing I do is to have breakfast and brush my teeth. Then I make a to-do list and decide where to start, it can vary depending on the day, but there are a few things that I do every day: read, work out, and study french. Since I'm on vacation I don't have to go to school and can focus on studying french, which is my main concern at the moment. I also write and publish these journals three times a week and practice English with other people twice a week. I can't study English every day (because I don't have time), but I try to keep in touch with the language so I won't forget it.

A veces me cuesta encontrar un tema de que pueda escribir. Intento evitar escribiendo de cosas polémicas, como la política y las relaciones internacionales, así como también tragedias como los tornados en el estado de Kentucky que han resultado en la muerte de decenas de personas. Eso suele hacerme escribir de temas como el aprendizaje de idiomas, la lingüística y la ciencia por lo general. No obstante, estos no son temas muy útiles. Dudo que vaya a ir a España, encontrarme con mis amigos y decir "oye, chico, ¿has oído de los idiomas indoeuropeos?"
El problema es que es difícil escribir de lo cotidiano, lo que creo que es muy irónico. Lo cotidiano, aunque hay algunos patrones, consta de cosas aleatorias. A menudo nos hallamos diciendo cosas como "iría a la escuela pero el perro acaba de vomitar por toda la alfombra y mis padres no están", lo que sería muy difícil encajar en un ensayo. Lo cotidiano es aleatoria, lo que lo hace difícil de escribir.

Ce qui arrive très souvent en France, c'est que les horaires qui figurent sur le site web diffèrent de celles disent les personnes à l'accueil au téléphone. Google Map n'est pas vraiment digne de confiance non plus : il m'est arrivée mainte de fois que sur Google Map ce magasin devait être ouvert mais non en réalité. En plus, j'ai l'impression que les gerants français changent plus fréquemment que ceux au Japon.
J'aime bien planifier des choses. Cela ne veut pas dire que je suis du genre organisé, je doit avouer être le contraire. Je voulais dire que je suis habituée à vivre la vie comme prévu. À l'opposite, les Français me semblent plus habitués aux imprévus.
C'est comme les climats de chaque pays. Au Japon, le temps est assez stable (même si la situation commence à changer à cause du réchauffement climatique), alors qu'en France on ne peut pas vraiment prévoir le temps qui s'imposera dans 5 minutes. Désormais j'apporte toujours mon parapluie en raison du temps capricieux.

"Täglich sich bewegen, um sich fit zu halten" : Damit bin ich wohl auf dem Laufenden! Aber es ist mir nicht so leicht. Ich arbeite nämlich vor meinem Computer. In der Schule war Sport alles andere als mein Lieblingsfach und heute habe ich noch darauf keine Lust, an einem Leistungssport teilzunehmen.
Im Alltag gehe ich spazieren, denn ich laufe gerne. Manche sagen, dass es kein Spartart ist. Aber ich bin auf der Meinung, dass es nicht für den Körper, sondern auch für die Seele gesund ist. Dann gehört es zum Thema.
Zu Hause kann ich auch Fitness machen, wenn ich darauf Lust habe. Dabei erlege ich trotzdem oft Pausen.
Außerdem tanze ich allein zu Hause gerne. Zwar denken meine Nachbarn, dass ich lächerlich bin. Na, und! Beim Tanzen macht man richtig Spaß. Und da man alle Körperteile bewegt, kann man definitiv diese Aktivität "Sport" nennen.

Frankenstein: success or failure? Viewed from the 21st-century biologist.
Victor Frankenstein, «a man of science», who was he? Infantile dreamer or great scientist? Is there any difference?
In this essay, I don’t want to write about the «God role» or the ethics of the experiments with a human being. The ethic is so changeable and depends on time. Being a bastard was awfully not so long ago. Today, people are frightened by genetically modified organisms. Tomorrow, maybe it will be as normal as having illegitimate children.
Frankenstein, who dreamt about giving life, gets success in it. It was an incredible event, but Victor fined his creature terrifying. So it was both a success and a failure.
What was the success? He creates life in his laboratory.
The failure: he had dreamt about creating a man, but he created a «monster», who could not adapt to the human world, because he was too strong, too ugly and too frightening.
What were the reasons for the failure?
One Finnish scientist told me about the «Russian» style of carrying the experiments. «You (Russian scientists), always start to do smth without careful thought, but always think why it won’t work».
First, he didn’t have a proper experimental design.
He didn’t carry out enough previous experiments. He should first experiment with mousses, then dogs, then chimpanzees.
He worked alone. It would be better for him to discuss his methods and technics with other specialists.
He should do the main procedure by himself, and not delegate them to the apprentice. If Igor hadn’t stolen the abnormal brain of a criminal from the laboratory of a professor, who knows what it would turn out to be?
And if we return to the ethical side, I really think that forbiddance on experiments with embryos older than 2 weeks will not stop scientists who want to work in this area. There is already He Jiankui, who has edited twins genomes. However, if these experiments will be open and there will be a normal law base controlling such experiments, we will be able to avoid the consequences of the creation of Frankenstein.

Lately, I don't go to the cinema with so much frecuency like some years ago. Of course, one reason is the current pandemia. But there is another reason also, which is a bit crazy. In general, the level of sound in the movie theater is high, but reasonable yet. Usually when the characters are talking, there is no hassle with the sound volume. The problem come with the music, and particularly with the specials effects. Here the sound can reach a deafening level. With some action movies, people can go out from cinema with whistle in the ears.

After lunch, the dormitory keeper told me that one of my female students had a fever, so she asked for a rest. I remembered that she didn't look well in the morning, but she didn't ask a break when I was in the office. The keeper said that she thought so, but the girl told her that she didn't take her temperature until class was over. Eventually, I told the girl that she didn't need a number to declare she was ill. She could just ask a rest when she felt uncomfortable.

« Câlins gratuites » est une activité populaire dans les rues avant l'épidemie, qui a but de rendre le monde un peu plus convival. Même si je le passais plusieurs fois, je n'ai jamais l'essayé. C'est étrange d'embrasser un inconnu, non ? Au moins pour les asians, car on est un peu timide. J'embrasse rarement mes amis ou même membres de la famille (sauf que mon petit frère parce qu'il est encore petit).
Donc je me souviens clairement chaque câlins que j'ai faits. Le plus heureux se passait quand j'ai vu un 5** pour la géographie dans mes notes pour l'examen publique du terminal. Combien de temps que j'ai consacré sur cette matière-là ? Et comment j'ai envie d'avoir le meilleur note pour ça ? Je ne pouvais pas m’empêcher d’embrasser ma prof de géographie pour partager tous mes excitations !
En fait, le contact physique direct me fait très bien. Peu à peu, ça devient plus naturel de donner une petite tape sur l'épaule de mes amis quand on ne se voit pas pour longtemps.

I am a simple person.
Or, I am an easily fooling person.
Few days ago I read a book which introduce an author and some of his books.
Next book I almost go to book store and buy his book!
Fortunately, at last minute I suddenly remember I can use library.
Borrow books for free!
So, I go to the nearest library and check out the books from this author.
In the computer shows that book is in the library.
But when I go to the bookshelf that not isn’t there.
I ask the staff help me but the book is just not in that library.
I need go to other library!

I watched the Gemini meteor shower last night. However, I watched them on YouTube live broadcast. First, I watched them at the Tokyo University Observatory in Nagano. I was able to see one shooting star in a few minutes. Next, I watched them at Mauna Kea Observatory in Hawaii. I was able to a lot of shooting stars.

I often read English books these days. Usually, I don't have too much difficulty in reading English books, but a book I'm reading recently is very difficult to understand. The content itself is not difficult to understand, but many sentences in this book were written in a complex way. I saw on the internet that even some English native-speaks said it was not easy to read. Unfortunately, there is no Chinese edition of it, so I started to read it with the help of "Google translation."

I'm having a bad moment right now. For weeks, I have been indifferent around the life. I mean, I don't want to do my best efforts to do my different daily tasks, I can't find motivation in these actions.
Some years ago when I felt this sensation, I used to search for some tools to improve it, for example advices, motivational videos or stuff like that. But every time that I fell in this state of apathy it's harder to get out of here.
At least now I understand that it is something temporary and in some weeks I'll be better and wanting to eat the world. But anyway, I'd like to avoid these passages of the life. This because when I take a look at people who surrounded me, they seem to be always in a good moment, and I feel like I am left behind.
That's all folks, I just wanted to relief my mind.

To improve my health, I used to swim at a pool in my company.
Before dinner, I went to the pool and swam about 600m on the intermediate player’s line.
My speed was not good enough, but my endurance was enough to swim.
If my condition was good, I tried to swim around 1500m for an hour.
It reduced my stress a lot, and it was an oasis of my daily life.
Because of the pandemic outbreak, the pool is now closed.
As a result, I should find alternative ways for my health and reducing my stress.

Wir Peruaner sind sehr unterschiedlich, aber es gibt etwas, dass uns alle zusammen bringt: unsere Liebe für ein sehr spezielles Getränk, die Inka Cola heißt.
Diese Cola ist gelb und hat eine blaue Etikette. Der Geschmack erinnert man an Kaugummi. Jedes Mal, dass ich für eine lange Zeit wegmuss, vermisse ich die sehr. Diese Cola ist uns sehr wichtig, sie war einmal Coca-Colas unzweifelhafte Konkurrenz in Peru. Sie war so gefährlich, dass Coca-Cola musste sie kaufen. Das finde ich witzig, weil Coca-Blättern, einmal so wesentlich für Coca-Cola, stammen auch aus Peru. Vielleicht haben wir etwas Besonderes für Colas.
