HI, everyone！
I'm very glad to hear your warm words. Thank you very much!
Today I heard the news that one of my colleagues is going to enter the hospital next month and have an operation for a myoma of the uterus. Her myoma is rather big, and she wants to undergo a laparoscopic surgery, not an abdominal operation. There seems to be a hospital in Tajimi, which can perform that op, but her myoma was too big to do it at the hospital in Tajimi. So, she has to go a hospital in Okayama. I wonder why Okayama? Why nowhere in Nagoya? It’s strange for me…
So, see you tomorrow. Good night!

Good evening everybody
I felt very sorry for the surgery of your colleague but I also wonder why in Okayama like Cherry thought. Anyway I hope she will be better as soon as possible.
By the way, as Magnolia mentioned, having good friends is a happiness of life. So all of NWSG members have a big fortune, don’t they? Moreover, Alice, you seem to expand your fortune beyond the border. I believe good personal relations between friends lead to good international relations, and such relations will eventually unify the world and bring us peace. Is that too optimistic? Let’s have agood dream. Good night, my derest friends.
Dear Cherry and friends,
It's a bit cold tonight. How are you, everybody?
I wish everybody is fine. Let's hope Cherry's colleague's operation will be successful.
As Cosmos and Magnolia mentioned, I always appreciate your sharing your ideas and thoughts and being friends and comrades. For me, the existence of friends is part of my power.
Do you have a list of places where you want to visit someday?
I have long one. The list is in my mind. So many places are listed on it. But it's hard to rank them.
Uganda and other African countries are new entries. Yesterday while Dr Mateo was talking to the coordinator of World Plaza, I talked to a woman from Uganda. There are two teachers from Uganda. Both were educated in UK. One of them is a pregnant woman. I chatted with her. She used to teach at a Nova school and quit before the corruption problem. I was asked about the incident. I told her that Nova's system had been notorious compared to other English schools. But maybe I was biased. How do you think?
I asked her about Uganda. The UK colonized the country, so the official language is English and the school system is almost the same as the British system. Although I didn't know anything about the country, I found some other facts about it from that lady. Except for poverty, the country is an attractive place. The most fascinating description was about the sky. According to her, the sky is blue in Uganda, but we don't see such a blue sky in Japan. I guess Cosmos saw the sky when you went to Kenya. Someday I would love to see the true blue.
Good night.

Hello, Cherry and my dear friends.
Cherry, your comment really made me awake;‘the Imperial Family exactly symbolizes the system which has forced women being birth-giving machines.’ Without modernizing the Imperial Family, women would be perperually thought to be birth-giving machines.
The hide-bound old traditional idea of the Imperial Family has encouraged men to be an only successor to the throne and discouraged women to inherit the throne. Unless Japan is willing to shake up its system surrounding the Imperial family and become more open and favorable to admit the rights of women, such as getting the rights to be a successor, we may end up failing to win the gender equality, as you told.
