A visit to Kyoto
Last weekend, I went to Kyoto to visit Kiyomi and Rakdy.
I have promised them when they came to see me in the hospital that I would someday come to see them.
So I just kept my word and went to Kyoto before they finish their one-year exchage student life in Japan and come back to California this Friday.
It was my first time to go to Kyoto. Unlike my hometown, Okayama, there are always loads of people there. Especially Kyoto's most famous tourist atractions, the temples attracted visitors from all over the world. The senery in Kiyomizu Temple was beautiful and really attarctive. We could also see Maiko ( the dancers dressed in traditonal Japanese Kimono) walk around the street.
I'm paddling.

Maiko walking the path.
Actually after hearing from Kiyomi, those women wearing in Kimono were not necessarily the Maigo or Geisya. They walked around the street just for the visitors' sake who want to take some pictures. No matter what, I was lucky enough to be able to see them. (-:
Next day, we went to Arashiyama and paddled a boat walking to the mountain road. It remanded lots of physical strength. We were all tired but all had a fun. I haven't done such a tough sports for a long time so now I have an ache in my muscles in my legs and arms. Hehe, I think I should haven take a rest at home for a while~ :-)

It is sweltering hot today. And now I'm listening to CD at my room with air condition turned on.
Last night, I went to Tsutaya ( a vedio rental shop) and rented some CDs back home. The whole CDs I have rented was TV series <攻殻機動隊, Mobile Armoured Riot Police: STAND ALONE COMPLEX> from Manga written by Masamune Shirow. I saw the anime films < Innocence>
I've found some quotations used in < Innocence>

PS: the picture above is a main character called " Batow". I really go for him.(-: beneath his cool appearace, he is a real hot-blooded person who always cares for his best partner, Kusanagi Motoko, the major of 9 section, heroine who disappears to the network world in < Ghost in the Shell>

It was still raining today. But unlike the other day, it was just light rain.
Because of these rainy days, it saved us lots of times watering the flowers in the garden. it hadn't rained for a long time, so at a moment , people used to be worried what if the hot weather still keep on and drought. Fortunately, we had rain fall at last!
This afternoon, mom and I went to play golf on foot. At first, I had no plan on today and thougt I would just spend most of time seeing some videos at home. Later, mom suggested me to give a call to one of our common friends to take me to some place. I obeyed though I didn't feel like doing this in my heart. We had seen each other just a few days ago, and I was reluctant to call him out so arbitrarily. He was working and working almost all of the week, and only have a holiday on Monday. I didn't want to waste his precious time especially since he was married. In the past, I would feel easy to ask him out without any restraints. But now I can't. It is exactly a difficult problem. I just need a friend to go out with me, but only to find all of them are so busy with their every job or things were just changed uncounsciously. We had compltely different time, there seem no time to share between us.
So what I had said on phone was just hello and how're you doing, and some words like " have a nice holiday and see you later" after all. Mom looked at me suspiciously and asked why I didn't
just ask them ( them means my friend and his wife). All I could answer was that I just feel like more at home and no more than that. How did we think of playing golf, it was simply because mom and I were both bored in fact. Chances are she had nothing to do today either, we decided to walk to a golf club. The club was truely close from our home, only took 15 minutes on foot. I was kind of surprised to see there were so many people there on weekday. I hadn't played golf since i moved to Tokyo. So everything was so Fresh to me. Mom and I both had a good time. One thing is true is that when you feel bored or lonely, you can try to do something new or that you haven't done for a long time. Learning to change our mood is really important.
Tomorrow we are playing golf again, according to my mom. I was happy to hear that.(-:

the Star Festival
July 7th, it is the star festival in Japan. People put their wish in a piece of paper on a special tree so that their dream would come true one day.
Even so, what I did today was just reading, watching vedios, and sleeping all at home today. It was pouring with rain and thunder passing through the sky this afternoon. I was not in a mood going outside at all today.
By the way, the animation film < Innocence>

Today, I drove to the hospital just to see Dr. H. We need him to fill up some applications about my illness. As I heard I'd got this job as a " driver", I couldn't help feeling my face lit up. A great excuse to see my doctor! There is no reason I am not making the most of it. :-) First, it could help me improve my driving, second is..hehe, you shall get it, right? :-)
The ward is on the 7th floor, and I have not been there for about a month. As hearing the bell ring, we caught a familiar sight. The nurses and doctors I know well were all in there! What made me happier was that Miss Kana was at the ward too at the moment! She is one of my favorate nurses and what is more, she plays KYUDO ( Japanese Archery) as well!! While I had been hospitalized, I used to ask her some advices about Kyudo. She's really good at it. I like her the best not only for her gentleness but also her sweet face. She is small and cute just like ordinary Japanese girls. Sweet but strong. That's what she impressed and me the most.
At last, Dr. H was showing up. According to the head nurse ( she is also a cute old lady), Dr. H had just had a meeting with his patient. So it took a little time. But that's okay because we were able to see him after all. He looked good and happy to see me and my mom. We stared at each other trying to find as many topics as we could though we have so many things to talk about. But other people's watching us, there is time. This time, I didn't wear a hat so that he and other staffs could all see my hair. These days, my hair has fell out because of the medicine I had drunk before. My old hair has almost fell out. And the newest hair is growing up day by day. They are tiny but exactly growing well just like a new-born baby's. I should say I was a lucky one because my old hair isn't all fell out, some are still alive. So I was able to avoid the worst situation that I would probably lose all of my hair.:-) Although now I am just like a little boy because of my latst "hairstyle". Some people who has no idea about my illness, would just think I have just have a most fasionable " hairstyle" as dread hot summer's coming. But people who has known me for a long time is also easily able to find out. Anyway, my hairstyle looks natural, that's a big relief to me. Thanks god. ♪
PS: Honest speaking, I had hesitated to show Dr. H my hair for a while. I just cared about what he would think of my hair. If he was simply a doctor, and I was a patient, I would not have worried about it at all. But given that he is a person I'm crushing on, that is a big deal. I just wanted to show me to him as a beautiful girl. After being told by my mom later, the head nurse had whisperd to my mom that I and Dr. H looked like we were lovers when she looked at us! Hehe, see, she knows everything~anyway, I am happy to hear that~:-) Not bad at all.
