walk up and down

Hi, everyone!

Two days ago, I was sitting on a chair for about three hours without a break, for writing a time line for Victorian studies. I am not skilled in using Excel. After that, I was bothered by lower-back pain for a while. I realized that it was no good to continue a same position, and that I hadn’t excised at all for a long time. Two months ago, when I go to gym regularly, I could feel my whole body get lighter. But since I stopped to go, I’ve instantly gained weight. Oh, no… So, I’ve decided to walk up and down the stairs of my apartment, instead of using an elevator. My house is on the fifth floor, and such movement makes me tired a little.

Just walking seems good for our health, but my apartment is on the top of the hill, and I have to walk along a steep slope wherever I go. Getting there is easy, but the way back is hard. Now there are a lot of, pink, white, red azaleas blooming along the street, but I won’t be able to enjoy those beautiful flowers while being out of breath.

So, see you tomorrow. Good bye.

Dear Cherry and friends,

Today, I walked from Shiogamaguchi to Yagoto. Precisely to say, I walked from Shiogamaguchi to Meijo Univ., returned a book, browsed some books, and walked to Yagoto to take the subway.
Before I walked from Meijo to Yagoto, I didn't know how much longer it takes to walk to Yagoto than to Shiogamaguchi. It's 5 minutes longer.
Last year, I visited one of my friends who lived near Yagoto. When I was approaching to the subway station, I was remembering her. Now she is teaching French in Vancouver.

By the way, thanks to Magnolia, I got a teaching job near my town. Thank you, Magnolia. I'll teach basic English conversation. Hopefully, it's basic. It starts next month. I know I can't do it as well as Magnolia does. It takes me some time to become an experienced teacher. It's a big challenge for me.

It's time to go to bed.
Talk to you tomorrow.

Hello, friends.

I'm glad to hear that alice got a new job. I know you'll be a good teacher because you are kind and deligent,alice. So hang in there!

By the way do you know a vietnam restaurant near Yagoto called 'Tuan'?
Some people recommended me to go there because they surve good and reasonable food there.
I checked it on the Internet and I'll try it with my friends in my high school days, who live in Nagoya area, on Monday (April 28).

I'll talk about it later.

Hello,again. Silly me! I misspelled 'diligent' like 'deligent'. Sorry, alice.
Actually you are delighted and diligent.

Dear Cherry and friends,

It was such a wonderful day. I met Plum and other members.I was so happy I can meet them. Plum gave us inspiring tutorial as usual. Today I'd like to write about the secrets of Masa Nakayama. She graduated from Kassui in Nagasaki, which is a famous missionary school for the higher standard English learnig. The book I first read shows the reason why she decided to study there is that she was an adopted child whose mother was dead just after her birth. Masa wanted to live an economically independent life because she thought it was her fate to have adoption or live independently. I was impressed with her deep insight and consideration for her living with her not-real mother. In my newly read book, her mother was not dead and the mother I thought who is not real mother is her real mother and his father was an Englishman, though I read her father was a Japanese. Her mother decided to let her enter Kassui to study English. I felt a little betrayed and shocked and understood it was hard for me to write an essay with less knowledge. Anyway I feel comfortable because of lots of suggestions by Plum and friends. I can confirm the necessity to keep on writing and. Thank you. I'll write about the other secret of Masa tomorrow. See you tomorrow, my dearest friends.

Hi, everyone!

Long time no see.
I have long since been mentally out of a woman, apparently, my body wants to quit being a woman.
I am very sorry for my laziness cuased by this agent. I can now learn to manage my body by any means.
Today, many beautiful women except for me flocked to Plum's house. As usual, Plum with big generosity and warm heart welcomed us. We had a great and useful time thanks to her. To tell the turth, I was overwherlmed by her posture of her passionate pursuading to study.
I wish I could or would follow her a tenth or 20th her attitude.
By the way, if you are annoied with meno pause, I recommend you not to eat something of food, such as coffee, cheese, alcohol and lever or gut of fish, cattlefish, pig, chiken, and cow.
See you. I will enjoy the golden week to go to the utmost point of the earth. (this expression was made by a foreigner but one of my teachers, she was from Yamaguchi Pref. When she read this part, she was gratified with it.) Then, Where am I going to go? Guess, everyone. See you three days later.
