Receta de macarons
Je n’aime pas la recette des macarons. Le chef n’a pas inclus tout qui le nécessaire dans la recette, ce qui a rendu le recette difficile pour moi et les macarons. Je pense que le chef n’a pas expliqué les choses correctement. De plus, je pense que les macarons sont quand meme plutot bons, mais ils seraient offensants pour un cuisinier de macarons professionnel.

500ペソのサンダル
最近、新しいサンダルが欲しくてネットでいろいろ調べました。私のサンダルはもうボロボロで、そろそろ替えようと思っていました。コスパのいいブランドはTevaとKeenです。おしゃれで足に気持ちがよくていいチョイスですが、ほかのブランドを試してみたかった。調べていた時、一番気に入ったデザインはこのモンベルのソックオンサンダルです：https://webshop.montbell.jp/goods/disp_fo.php?product_id=1129476
先の週末、もうネットで買いたかったが、アウトレットモールに行く予定があって、「そこに何かを見つかるかも」と思ってまだ買いませんでした。買わなくてよかった。アウトレットモールに「Travel Club」というアウトドアや旅行用グッズを売ってる店がありました。そこに見つかったのはたった一足（いっそく）残っていたモンベルのソックオンサンダルでした。そして私のサイズでした。そして割引きで売られていて、値段がただ500ペソでした。（千円ぐらいで）すごい偶然で買うしかなかったよね。なんか勝ったって感じです。（笑）

Пауки
Мы уже открыли 46 000 видов пауков на планете и многие люди их боятся. Мне тоже не очень нравятся... Когда я вижу огромных австралических пауков, думаю каждый раз, что никто кроме черта их создал в самых глубоких пропоастях ада. Многие их ассоцируют со злом. Кстати, я недавно узнал, что у слова «паук» есть переносный смысл. Оно означает жадного человека, который эксплуатирует других. Интересно! Многие таже ассоцируют этих животных с грязью. На самом деле живут пауки только в очень чистых домах. Так, если у вас соседы по комнате с восьмью лапками, это доказывает, что вы живёте в здоровном месте.
Пауки играют очень важный экологический роль, потому что они ограничивают распространение насекомых. Известно, что некоторые насекомые (как комары) передают серьёзные заболевания человека. Поэтому, пауки могут нам помогать предупредить распространение проблематических заболеваний как малярия.
Паутины давно очаровывают людей. Некоторые виды пауков совсем не ткают паутины; другие, наоборот, могут покрывать целые сети туннелей шёлком.У шёлковых нитей пауков есть удивительные свойства. Они одновременно лёгки и очень плотны. В равных количествах, они 30 раз плотнее стала! Поэтому, они очень интересуют науков, которые хотели бы развить технологии синтетических волокон базированных на нитях пауков.

Lunedì 2 dicembre
Stamattina mi sono sentita stanchissima dopo essermi svegliata, sebbene avessi dormito a sufficienza. Dopo aver bevuto il caffè, le cose sono migliorate, però ne berrò un altro fra poco.
Non ho più le energie per lavorare, ma devo andare avanti comunque. Ce la farò nonostante la poca voglia, soprattutto perché spero che i nuovi cambiamenti mi portino più soldi in futuro.
Sarebbe bello se ci facessero una sorpresa a dicembre. In fondo, è il mese dei regali, della speranza, della ricompensa per tutto il nostro sforzo.
Somiglio a Don Chisciotte, che lottava contro i mulini a vento, però posso ancora avere speranza. Può darsi che io sia troppo coinvolta nei miei obiettivi, ma questo rimane da vedere.

Do People Like Virtual Sushi?
Based on this article.
https://news.yahoo.co.jp/articles/f51504a1b518e25bd7c4bcc6863cd910863798ef?page=1
Unique, traditional, and, above all, delicious, sushi is the epitome of Japanese cuisine. Being Japanese as well as an avid sushi enjoyer myself, I find conveyor belt sushi restaurants one of the better options for eating out and having a good time with friends and family. As with many other specialized Japanese fast food restaurants, their dishes are not strictly limited to what they advertise: They offer ramen, fruit parfait, karaage(Japanese chicken nuggets) for instance, not to mention many new types of sushi, such as avocado, beef, and tempura. Their ingenuity and mindset of experimentation seem to have roots in their beginnings, when a company decided to combine the old and new, streamlining the process of serving the traditional Japanese fast food using newly-invented conveyor belts. In modern times, some unexpected turns of events seem to have pushed conveyor sushi restaurants into the next phase of evolution.
It began with Covid
For the last few decades, Japan was slow to adopt newer technologies due possibly to its aging population. The situation changed dramatically, however, with the arrival of the pandemic. Under the State of Emergency, restaurants and Izakayas (Japanese pubs) were forced to follow very strict rules aimed at curbing infection cases, such as keeping distance from each other, wearing masks, installment of hand sanitizers and plastic boards, and so on. To reduce human contact as much as possible, many big chain restaurants turned to new technology and introduced tablets for customers to order their food on, which we now see installed in most restaurants big and small.
"Licking Boy" scandal
Food chains at large suffered severely due to the pandemic and strict measures by the government, but a certain sushi restaurant had a different misfortune. One of the biggest sushi restaurant chain Sushiro was devastated when a video went viral where a teenage boy licked the tip of a soy sauce bottle on the table, which was to be shared among customers. Even though it wasn't their fault and could have happened to any other sushi restaurants, the trust Sushiro had in their food hygiene policy was severely damaged and they experienced a precipitous drop in their stock prices.
Virtual solutions for human risk
In an apparent attempt to prevent the recurrence of such incidents, Sushiro reduced the amount of sushi on the conveyor belt. The less sushi on the conveyor belt, the lower the "human" risk, their idea seemed to be. As a result, it is now quicker to just order your sushi on the tablet than browse and pick up sushi on the conveyor belt. Also, there was already a case against the conveyor belt system even before the pandemic. Since the taste of sushi deteriorates and the likelihood of food poisoning increases when it's not picked up soon, a piece of sushi is usually discarded after making a few rotations. This creates food losses, which are bad for the environment and business alike.
Instead, they made this conveyor-belt experience virtual. According to the article, Sushiro is increasing the number of restaurants with a big touch screen, a system dubbed "Dejiro"(portmanteau of "digital" and "Sushiro"). On the screen, you can see moving pictures of sushi on a conveyor belt, virtually recreating the browsing experience. Not only is this new way of business advantageous for the company, customers seem to like it too. The author of this article speculates that this is because it feels like a game—you look at the screen, waiting for delicious-looking pieces of sushi that you'd like to order, and you find some unexpected kinds of sushi that you'd never thought you wanted.
Is this what the future of sushi restaurants looks like?
Since it creates a win-win situation for both companies and their customers, the digitization of conveyor belt sushi restaurants seems unavoidable. However, is it really the only way? I remember a friend of mine saying "disappointed" when she saw almost nothing on the conveyor belt at Sushiro. You have to practically order everything on your touch panel to get your sushi. There is nothing unique about the experience anymore: No excitement for unexpected discoveries, no rushing to get your sushi before it gets out of your reach, no defining characteristics that makes a conveyor belt sushi restaurant special. Now, it's almost the same as any other fast food restaurants.
There is no denying that technology has made our lives convenient. However, a little bit of enjoyable inconvenience can make our lives a little more fun, more authentic, and more unique. I believe Japan is where technology meets tradition, and I hope we can strike a good balance between new inventions and old culture, just like how conveyor belt sushi restaurants started.

あなたの国にはどんなファストフードがありますか？
イタリアには様々なタイプのファストフードがります。マクドナルドのような大手国際チェインから、ケバブ屋などの小さな店まで、これらは異国の料理を提供する例であり、多文化主義の象徴です。
また、ピザ、サンドイッチ、ピアデイナなど地域どこに異なるイタリアの典型的な食材を使ったファストフードもあります。
ファストフードは手軽で安価食事を求めている人々や、通常の食事時間を外れた時間帯に利用されます。
また家庭で料理する時間がないの時の代替手段として、レストランよりも安価であるため、ファストフードの利用がますます一般的になっています。しかしレストランはイタリアが料理の体験を楽しみ、特別なレシピを味わう場所として、今なお最も好まれています。典型的なイタリアの家庭では、食事と伝統的な料理が非常に重要であり、それは自分たちの文化と国民性定義する要素と考えられています。
最後に、ファストフードの書類に戻ると、特に「オトグリル」というサービスエリアのチェイン店に言及することが重要です。これは長距離の旅行中に休憩する旅行者(車、バイク、トラックなど)が利用するファストフードチェインです。

よく使う言葉の比喩的な由来 （II）
一昨日の話を続けたいと思います。前回は「○○しておく」例とした、今回は「○○している」について語りたい。「○○している」の文法は最初勉強する時、言葉の論理とか由来を思わないで、そのまま覚えていくばかりだ。だけどある動画は言葉の基づく論理を教えてくれました。ちなみに、動画は "Cure Dolly"というチャンネル作って、彼女は強い意見を持ってけど、日本語の文法の説明は異常に分かりやすいと思います。動画では「○○している」の「いる」は「あるといる」の「いる」と同じと説明した。もちろん「いる」とは世の中にあって、生きていて、存在している。そういうわけで、「て」である動作に繋ぐと、その動作が生きているのように、続いてるというニュアンスを添える。動画は言葉の由来がよく分かると、直感的な理解が出てくるということを教えてくれた。日本語を学ぶには、これはまるで革命のような視点の変化。
最後まで読んでくれてありがとうございます。

A Chinese Proverb (2)
As some of you may know, about two weeks ago, I visited a scenic area known for its long history of ginkgo trees with a friend. We meant to see the golden leaves of the ginkgo trees, but it was not a good time because the leaves were just beginning to turn yellow.
Last Saturday, I saw some golden ginkgo trees aside the trail when I was aiming to hike to a famous ancient academy in a small village. I made a video of them, you can watch it here: https://youtube.com/shorts/39Jj-BmBHsk
There's a perfect proverb for this kind of situation: 有心栽花花不开，无心插柳柳成阴
Literally, it says that one plants a flower but the flowers don't bloom, while she pokes a stick in the mud and it grows into a tree.
It means that things do not always turn out as one would expect, well-laid plans may fail, and success may come where you least expect it.

La fête d’Halloween
Tous les ans, la fête d’Halloween se déroule le 31 octobre. J’ai de la famille qui habite aux États-Unis et là, cette célébration est énorme chez les enfants et même chez les adultes. L’année dernière, en octobre, je leur ai rendu visite et j’ai eu l’occasion de participer aux festivités. Je veux dire que ce soit merveilleux !
À la base, Halloween a des racines chrétiennes. Selon Wikipedia, le festival est dédié à la mémoire des personnes décédées et des saints. Il remonte au IVème siècle et à l’époque, il existait une grande influence religieuse. Il y avait des services religieux, des veillées et des prières. Au fil des années, l’événement est évolué et désormais, on fait la fête. Avant d’aller plus loin, j’admets qu’il existe aussi des autres explications.
De nos jours, le thème est l’horreur. Les maisons sont décorées avec des squelettes, des araignées et des toiles d’araignées. Les gens se déguisent en sorcières, en vampires et en fantômes. Je serais vraiment étonnée s’ils iront à l’église. C’est dommage que les racines chrétiennes aient été oubliées.

Une pénurie d’eau
Quand j’étais petite, à l’école, j’ai appris que 71 pourcentage de la surface de la Terre est couverte par l’eau. En plus, on trouve l’eau dans l’atmosphère, dans les glaciers et même dans le sol. Cela étant dit, de plus en plus, on entend parler des inondations et de la sécheresse. Les études ont révélé que c’est à cause du réchauffement.
Actuellement, la commission mondiale sur l’économie de l’eau sonne l’alarme et met en lumière une crise de l’eau. Une future catastrophe humanitaire est à nos portes. Sans assez d’eau la production alimentaire est menacée. Si rien est fait pour préserver les ressources de l’eau, une situation pire pourrait arriver au cours des vingt-cinq prochaines années. Cela m’agace que personne ne fasse rien.
Tout le monde doit prendre cet avertissement au sérieux et agir immédiatement. Alors, quelles mesures peuvent être prises pour conserver l’eau. Plusieurs idées viennent à ma tête telles que prendre des douches courtes, ne pas arroser le jardin et j’en passe.

Le sprint final
Si on n’a pas entendu parler des élections américaines, peut-être ces personnes vivent dans une grotte, très loin et très isolée. Non, je ne plaisante pas car en ce moment, le monde entier s’inquiète. Les élections américaines aura lieu mardi, 5 novembre et c’est le sprint final pour les candidats.
Le système de vote américain est incompréhensible. Le système est absolument différent de ceux en France et en Australie. C’est un système très compliqué avec des grands électeurs et je ne peux pas concrètement expliquer comment fonctionne ces élections. Cela étant dit, je sais que les sept « Swing States » détiennent le pouvoir.
J’ai du mal à comprendre que chaque vote n’a pas la même valeur. La deuxième chose que j’ai mal à comprendre, c’est qu’un candidat peut remporter une majorité des suffrages à l’échelle du pays, autrement dit, le vote populaire, mais ne deviendra pas le président. Cela me semble absolument absurde. Quel cirque ! Je retournerai dans ma grotte.

La taille d’une langue
J’ai déjà mentionné que les linguistes considèrent qu’il y a environ 7 000 langues parlées autour du monde. Bien que ces langues partagent certaines caractéristiques similaires comme une grammaire et un vocabulaire, je veux dire que chacune de ces langues soit différente, varié et riche.
Qui d’entre vous connaît le nombre de mots qu’il y a en anglais et dans la langue française ? Apparemment, quelqu’un les a compté dans une étude menée par l’Université de Harvard et Google. D’après eux, la langue anglaise est l’une des plus riches en termes de vocabulaire : il y plus d’un million de mots anglais. Par contre, la langue française possède 60 000 mots dans les dictionnaires. Pourtant, on reconnaît que tous les mots ne sont pas inclus dans les dictionnaires.
Selon Wikipedia, le mot le plus long en anglais est « pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis ». Ayant 45 lettres, c’est un nom d’une maladie. Quel vire-langue ! D’autre côté, le mot le plus long en français est « intergouvernementalisation ». Ça je peux prononcer.

Resumen de El hobbit: Capítulo 12
Capítulo 12: Información secreta.
En el capítulo 12, Bilbo y los enanos están ante el pasillo. Deciden que el «saqueador» debe ir primero. Bilbo se pone el anillo y se dirige por el túnel. Ve al dragón gigante, Smaug, tendido sobre un montón de tesoro. Bilbo roba una gran copa de oro mientras duerme y se escabulle con cuidado hacia los enanos.
Smaug se despierta y se da cuenta de que falta la copa. Se enfurece y busca al grupo, soplando fuego por toda la montaña, pero su escondite en la entrada secreta los salva. Al no poder encontrarlos, vuela al pie de la montaña, ve sus poneys y se los come. Más tarde, regresa a su guarida y se queda dormido. Finalmente, Bilbo vuelve a bajar por el túnel y encuentra a Smaug, que esta vez está despierto y esperándolo. Bilbo es invisible pero Smaug puede olerlo. Bilbo habla a Smaug en acertijos (que es la forma correcta de hablar con los dragones). Halaga a Smaug con cumplidos y lo engaña para que le muestre su vientre y Bilbo se fija en un punto débil en su pecho.
Justo antes del momento en que ataca, Bilbo huye por el túnel y Smaug, demasiado grande para caber, sopla fuego tras él. Bilbo apenas logra escapar y se quema el pelo. Bilbo les cuenta a los enanos lo que había pasado y el zorzal en la roca lo escucha. De repente, todos oyen el feroz rugido de Smaug y cierran la puerta justo antes de que caiga una avalancha de piedras. Bilbo y los demás están ahora atrapados en el túnel y la única salida es a través de la guarida de Smaug.

Do you prefer end a relationship before february 14?
Who everyone know, valentine´s day is a romance day. Everyone associate Valentine´s day with red roses, pink hearts and candlelit dinners, the last you´re going to expect is a break up. But a poll stated that 45% of people prefer that.
What happen with the 65% remaining?. It could be they want to end on February 14?.
Well for that people, Pizza Hut take advantage of this situation and offer a pizza called "Hot Honey Goodbye pies" for people who want to break up with their partner. Actually, the way to buy this Pizza Pie it´s through the website GoodbyePies.com. This idea help to the "future ex" to receive a complimentary pizza to help them get over being dumped. Pizza Hut say " With the launch of Goodbye Pies, we are bringing that perfect blend of sweet and heat…to real life. We are delivering spicy news in the sweetest way for Valentine's Day".
Basically, the person enter to the website, buy the pizza, write the name of her ex partner on the pizza box and the delivery driver will deliver the bad news in the best way with a potentially plausible break-up excuse for you.
For me, this idea is absolutely amazing, its different and Pizza Hut knew how to avail the situation when no one did.
Although really, I wouldn´t do it because I prefer to talk with the other person and say the reasons why I want to end the relationship. But in the other hand I understand the people who cant express their feelings.
What do you think about this idea?
I need to improve my English, so every comment that you want to say me is perfect for me.

Writing Practice: Lost Bag Inquiry Email
Dear manager,
I hope this email finds you well. I'm a customer who dined at your restaurant with my friends yesterday. We four were sitting near the window by the entrance and left around 7:00 PM. Unfortunately, when I got home, I couldn't find my bag anywhere. It contains important stuff like my driver's license, house keys and a wallet with credit card and cash inside. I assumed I possibly left it in your restaurant. It is a black leather handbag with a teddy bear keychain attached. If you have found it, could you please call me at 123456 or reply this email.
I would really appreciate your help.
Best regards,
Tina Chen
(Could you please help me refine it to make it natural and appropriate, expand the vocabulary range)

The Man Who Stole the Sun
I have a tendency to get into rabbit holes that keep getting more and more obscure. My latest adventure involve underground Japanese movies. I think it all started with Ringu and Ju-On, these movies have a type of beauty that I can only compare to maybe The Exorcist or Rosemary's Baby. They totally blew me away and when I discovered it was common for Japanese movies to not have soundtracks, I was fully in. I found movies that changed my life, opening a whole new world of self-discovery and film appreciation.
Yesterday, I watched a film called The Man Who Stole the Sun. The movie is about a charismatic yet atypical chemistry teacher. You get the impression that he chooses to be a solitary man. Rather than spending time with people, he prefers to do things he is passionate about. He looks like a badass rock star and doesn't let anything get in his way, even ignoring social tacit agreements, at times.
Early in the film, he and his students are on a school trip, having a wonderful time, when the bus is hijacked by a delusional man who demands to see the emperor of Japan or he will kill everyone. They reach out for the police and after much negotiation, they say they will comply to his wishes but it was a trap. They off the guy, saving everyone who was in the bus. The charismatic teacher and the cop who were behind this "operation" are then decorated with medals and talked about on all the news outlets. However, the teacher has something else going on in his private life — he's making an atomic bomb, of course! And that's all I am going to say. c:

朝活
僕は週末をダラダラ過ごすのが好きなんですけど、いつまでも怠けるわけにはいかないし、やることが沢山詰まってきたし、久しぶりに朝活をしてみました。
一日にこんなに物事を成し遂げられるなあと思ったくらい、僕の努力にびっくりしました（自慢話じゃないですよ。逆に普段ゴロゴロしている僕が恥ずかしいです。）。
日本語で何かを書いて投稿する時間さえ作りました。すごく嬉しいです。
毎日そういう風に小さなことをやれば、心が晴れて、もっと大事なことに集中する力や時間が出てきますね。
これだやっと安心して休めます。そして次の目標を見つけたら、新たな挑戦に覚悟を持って臨みます。

読んでくれてありがとうございます。
どう思いますか？

LoL
Today, I reinstalled a very popular game on my laptop called League of Legends, just to lose some time and to remember the old days. I used to play it with my friends from high school, and I remember it was a game played by lots of toxic people. Since this game is highly competitive, has long matches and is also a 5x5 team game, the players are constantly stressed. That's why I stopped playing, it was not a psychologically healthy experience. Even my friends were getting mad at me sometimes. I'm glad I managed to step back from that addictive game, because most of people can't just leave it. They end up losing hours that could be used to more productive activities, like learning a new language haha. Nowadays I only play it occasionally and between long intervals throughout the year (the last time I played was probably about two years ago). If you mute all the players in every match as I do, you will surely enjoy the experience way more.

Einen passenden Beruf finden
Hallo Leute,
ich bin in einem haben Jahr mit der Schule fertig und weiß noch überhaupt nicht, wie es weitergehen soll. Woher weiß ich , welcher Beruf für mich geeignet ist? Was soll ich machen: mich beraten lassen, einen Berufsfindungstest oder ein Praktikum machen? Könnt Ihr mir Tipps geben? Danke
(Vgl. Menschen, Deutsch als Fremdsprecher, Arbeitsbuch, Hueber, 2015, Lektion 9, Seite 84)
---
Gratulation. Bald keine Schule mehr.
Ich würde dir raten, dich beraten zu lassen. Es kostet nichts und könnte dir helfen, eine Entscheidung zu machen. Und wenn nicht, dann ist es egal. Du wäre noch, wo du vorher warst.
Berufsfindungstests sind nutzlos. Die Antworten passen nie, also sind die Resultate falsch.
Und, wenn du auf einen Beruf Lust hast, solltest du absolut ein Praktikum machen. Da du die Arbeit probieren kannst und zu Ende wirst du wissen, ob du dabei gern arbeitest.
Viel Glück für die Zukunft.
