Motivations to learn English ’
I have contact with the English language since I was a kid. My first experience probably happened when I was about 6 or 7 years old when I did attempt to play some old console games of my dad. I think the English language is the most important one to learn nowadays, academically and professionally, and it is knowed as a "general" language around the world that anyone from differents nationalities can speak and understand each other, so it is a very basic ability to know.

Soixante-douze jours avant mes examens.
Ce matin, quand je conduisais vers de bureau, j'ai écouté un podcast de RFI qui s'appelle Le monde des enfants. J'ai trouvé l'émission très drôle parce que les enfants parlaient d'avoir la flemme. J'étais surpris d'entendre cette expression dans la bouche d'enfants. En plus, j'ai appris une nouvelle expression française.

Relax after a long day
I usually watch some videos of my hobby like niconico.
It's a very interesting video website because the comment everyone typed will show on the screen, and you often can find really funny ones.
Even if it's not only one that has this feature, it also remains the unique flavor in it.
Besides, eating Ramen is also the good way to help me relax, that delicious soup and chewier or softer noodles with some vegetables and thick roast Pork.
The combination is so guilty and yummy!

Idioms in Mandarin
I would like to talk about idioms in Mandarin.
They're Chinese 4-character expressions.
"马马虎虎" originated from a folk legend.
There was a painter who painted freely without any strictness or precision.
When asked whether the painting depicted a horse or a tiger, the painter simply replied, "It's neither, just a mediocre one."
From then on, "meh" came to be used to describe someone who doesn't take things seriously.
Every idiom has a historical story behind it, because China is a country with a long history.
China really first came to the attention of the West during the times of ancient Rome.
China has a history of 5000 years. China is one of the very few existing countries with an early civilization.
You know it falls into the same category as the Babylonians, Romans, Greeks, and Egyptians.
But except for Chinese civilization, all other civilizations have gradually disappeared.
Why has Chinese civilization been passed down?
The secret lies in the written language.
The earliest Chinese kanji were oracle bone script.
From ancient times to the present, China has attached great importance to the recording of history because Chinese kanji plays an important role.
If you are a lover of Chinese language, I highly recommend reading some Chinese history books.

Elrepült a hét
Hihetetlen, milyen gyorsan elrepült ez a hét is. Ma reggel alig bírtam felkelni, de egy bögre meleg zöld tea szerencsére megmentette a napomat. Ma nyolc órát tanítottam, szóval a nap végére teljesen elfáradt a hangom. Tanítás után még beugrottam a szupermarketbe, és az önkiszolgáló kasszát választottam. Útközben ráadásul találkoztam a kedvenc koszovói diákommal, Valbonával és a férjével, ami teljesen feldobta a kedvemet. Most értem haza pihenni egy kicsit, de este még elmegyek egy nagyot sétálni, mert az időjárás egyszerűen tökéletes. Ti mivel töltitek a mai délutánt? Remélem, mindenkinek jól telt a napja!

Tea and coffee
I prefer coffee because it smells better and taste richer, complex to me.
My favorite sort of coffee is Macchiato, it taste so sweat and refresh, which can make me relax with good moon to start a new morning.
But on the flip side, it's a bit too sweet. I actually don't drink it every single day.

Abyssinia and Ethiopia
Here are some things you may not know about Ethiopia.
Ethiopians do not identify as black, but as white people with a tan.
Ethiopia supplies 85% of the Nile's water.
Ethiopia is one of the oldest independent countries in Africa.
It has never been colonized by another nation, well, disregarding five years of occupation by Mussolini's Italy.
It's also the second most populated country in Africa.
While this ancient country may now be known as Ethiopia, this wasn't always the case,as historically the country went by a different name, Abyssinia.
Throughout history, it seems that the names have been used interchangeably.
Ethiopia, home to more than 100 million people, is the original home of the coffee bean.
Coffee originated in Ethiopia and spread to the Arab world and Europe.
Ethiopia is an incredibly ancient country.
Ethiopia has been heavily settled going far back into prehistory.
According to Ehiopian tradition, this is the home of the legendary Queen of Sheba.
She converted to the faith of Solomon of Israel and bore his child, who returned to Ethiopia to rule as king,beginning a long line of Ethiopian kings who claimed direct descent from King Solomon.
The Ethiopian church today maintains the Ark of the Covenant, which was brought to this ancient kingdom during this period and has been kept safely there under guard for more than two and a half thousand years.

ワークライフバランス
文脈：二人の登場人物は近いではなくて、部で互いに知っているだけです。どの部か分かりません。編集前記：実は美術部にします。文脈が加えれば加えるほどよくなりますね。（笑）
３年女子高生「チェックインしたかっただけど、なんで美術部に来てないの？」
２年女子高生「ごめんなさい、家の用事がありますから。両親が夜遅くまで働きますから、私は全部をしなければいけません。いつも部活動に参加すると時間がありません。」
３年生「ごめん、家族の事情を知らなかった。もし家の用事と部活動の時間があったら、来てくださいね。プレッシャーを気にしないで。結局、美術部はストレスじゃなくて、楽しいだろう？」
質問：上級生は普通下級生と「です・ます」で使いませんか？また、その逆も、下級生は普通上級生と「です・ます」で使いますか？

Join Stamp Rally
The day after our visit to Tokyo DisneySea, my husband and I joined a Detective Conan stamp rally in Yokohama.
Since the latest movie is set across Kanagawa Prefecture, including Yokohama, various related events are being held throughout the region.
My husband has been still staying in Tokyo for a business trip, and I had to take the bullet train in the evening, so we had limited time.
Therefore, we skipped events outside Yokohama and only enjoyed those in the city.
Since we had walked around the theme park the day before, our legs were already exhausted from the start of the day.
Moreover, walking around the city in the intense summer heat made it very tough.
We completed the rally in one day, but even at a fast pace, it took about five hours.
Instead of stopping at each spot, we rushed through just to collect the stamps.
I suppose the organizers expected participants to stay in Yokohama for a few days and complete the rally while stopping at various locations along the way.

Französische und deutsche Musik
10.06.2026
Gestern habe ich meinen Geburtstag mit meiner Familie gefeiert. Zum Beispiel habe ich die Kerzen ausgeblasen und mir etwas gewünscht. Das ist allerdings ein Geheimnis. Es tut mir leid. 😅
Danach habe ich viele Lieder auf Spanisch von Lisa Ono sowie auf Französisch und Deutsch von Ambre Vallet gehört.
Ehrlich gesagt finde ich es mega krass, wenn ich einige Lieder von Ambre höre, weil sie fantastische Lieder gleichzeitig auf Französisch und Deutsch hat.
Mein Lieblingslied von Ambre Vallet ist „Ambre“, weil sie darin auf Französisch und Deutsch singt. Außerdem geht der Rhythmus sofort ins Ohr.
Tschüss!

学校図書館の歓迎のアイデア？
私の職場である学校には（アメリカで）、日本との交流プログラムが下旬始まります。学校図書館のある同僚が留学生を迎えるために、図書館を飾ったり、イベントを催したりしたがるのに、私を尋ねました。日本語を勉強すると知っているのです。彼はお盆や折り紙を作ろうと思っていました。
今のところ、他のことは何も考えられません。言うまでもないことですが、私も留学生をちゃんと迎えたいです。学校自身は田舎でありますけれども、日本的な材料を買うことができます。たとえば、去年学生といっしょにカレーライスを料理しました。
他のアイデアがあれば、声をかけてください。どうもありがとう！

北アイルランドの暴力
昨夜、ニュースで北アイルランドに暴力をみました。数日前、外国人が人を殺しました。その後、極右の組が講義をはじめました。講義として始めましたが、この組みの講義はよく暴力になります。昨日も、人々が外国人（黒人や東ヨーロッパの人こそ）の家を攻撃して、家や車燃やしました。ニュースで見るのはすごく怖かって、悲しかったです。ここには
も、そんなことは可能性ようです。
さすが、Conor McGregorやElon Muskが暴力を激しましていました。このような暴力があれば、全部のような時に、Twitterで同じ人が嫌いことを励ましています。おかげで、Muskの行動がTwitterの人気さを傷つけましゅたが、衝撃したひとがまだMuskなどに聞きます。
（ちなみに、日本語でこんなトピックについて書くのは少し怖いです。たとえば、間違えた言葉を選べら、衝撃の応援に見えることができます。念のため、衝撃は悪かった、Muskの衝撃の応援も嫌いです)

How do I face loneliness
Good evening, everyone.
So... how do I cope with this sensation?
Just two minutes ago, I was thinking that all my friends were busy and I felt so lonely, lying on my bed. Consequently, I thought about what could be my next move, so here I am.
Firstly, I put down my smartphone to avoid watching Minecraft videos on YouTube. Even if they are so useful to switch off, I thought that I could be less lazy. I told myself that I have a goal to succeed. Even though writing on this site is one of the most stressful things that I'm forcing myself to do, I have to admit that I'm maybe starting to enjoy it... I guess.
Unfortunately, I haven't got so many ideas for this topic, about loneliness.
There is just one thing that I'm avoiding every time I feel so bored and lonely: I don't look for my girlfriend.
Sometimes, I feel that some people spend most of leasure their time with their sweet half just because they are bored. I'm so scared to trying confort in that situation with my fiancè. WAIT. I definitely consider my G as my best friend, and as a friend, I would like to meet her when I really feel her absence.
However, I'm going for a walk around my neighbourhood.
Have a nice evening.

El revólver por Emilia Pardo Bazán
En este cuento corto, la autora empieza "in extrema res," con una mujer llamada Flora en grave condición física contando al narrador de su experiencia horrible con su marido Reinaldo. Aunque empezaron su matrimonio felices, el hombre se convirtió en controlador y maleducado muy celoso. Un día, le dijo a Flora que dejaría de controlarla para que ella pudiera vivir libremente de nuevo. Pero tenía una sola condición. Mostró a Flora un revólver y le dijo que si algún día le hiciera enojar, la mataría con la pistola. Flora pasaba sus días viva, pero en un estado de terror constante. Al final del cuento, el narrador le preguntó a Flora qué pasó con Reinaldo y su respuesta es muy inesperada.

Books
I really like reading books–especially mystery or one that appear the police officers and happen a crime book. I think I've read those types of books the most.
Reading is the biggest my coping mechanism and it make me feel like I am in that storyline and I am reading story from the top area like the sky. I can forget a lot of works that I should do or what I'm worry while I'm reading. When I was reading very interesting book, I read that book for three hours without taking break. I felt like time spent so quickly.
I read books on the train every day or at my school, so I read one book par week. It depends how much works I have, but as overall, I read one book. I tried to read English book which is translated into English from Japanese, "KOKORO" by NATSUME SOSEKI. This auther is very famouse in Japan and he appears in Japanese text books. Howeber, the original book is difficult to read even in Japanese by native Japanese speaker because it was written in 1914 and some of handwriting changed into different words and meaning.

ヴォルジスカヤ水力発電所
ヴォルゴグラードにいた時に、ヴォルジスキー(Волжский)という近くにある街を訪れることにしました。なぜなら、そこにヴォルジスカヤ水力発電所(すいりょくはつでんじょ Волжская ГЭС)があるからです。この旅行まで水力発電所を見たことがありません。しかも、4月の終わりから5月までそこで放水(ほうそう сброс воды)が行われているそうです。だからこの機会を生かさなければならないと決めました。
ヴォルゴグラードの中心からヴォルジスカヤ水力発電所までタクシーで40分ほどかかりました。そこの展望台(てんぼうだい смотровая площадка)に私たち以外、4人しかいませんでした。本当にヴォルガ川(река Волга)は素晴らしいです。 ヴォルガ川はヨーロッパで一番広い川だと知っていましたが、自分の目で見るととても感動しました。そして、川の力強さに圧倒(あっとう)されました(Я была поражена мощью реки)。
