Our Product @ A Famous Restaurant
Yey!!
Our product is on a menu at a famous Japanese family restaurant from today!
The pie I put yesterday.
My assistant and I went to the restaurant and had the menu.
This is the part I like about my job.
Finding our product at actual store or restaurant make me happy.
We are getting bonus on 15th of this month.
So I have to explain all my assistants how I evaluate them.
I talked each of them one by one.
I am not sure all of them agreed but glad that I got it done.
It was hard because none of them got a good evaluation...
I went to gym tonight after work.
We ran really hard!
However, we went to eat from 11 at night.
What's the point to got to gym? I know...
But I felt pretty good by doing some exercise.
I gotta keep going to gym, "Gold Gym"!!
Yes, We Can!!
*This is a pack of tea I drink at work everyday.
I was so moved by Obama’s winning speech.
Congrats on Obama!
I have wanted him to be President not as Japanese, but as a girl who used to live in the US.
Since America is getting messed up, I wanted someone to change, since I love America.
I am not American, but I was so moved by his speech and really expect him to change America.
At the last minute, suddenly, I wasn’t sure if he would win but McCain would.
Now I am excited but a little scared how America would change.
Anyway, his speech was sooo great.
We bet on this election.
Of course I bet on Obama, and after we got this news at work in this afternoon, we were all excited and repeated, “Yes, we can. Yes, we can.” Just for fun.
But seriously, our department needs changes, and yes, we can!
I am looking forward to seeing how America would change from now on.
This is my outfit today.
Nowadays I love wearing one-piece dress.
Ahhhh, my room is so messy…
I went to gym and did pilates.
It was soooooo hard…
I had not been to gym for a while, but I will try going there often from today.
Promise…
With New Items
I went to work with a pair of new suits today.
It seems like I look skinny in that suits, so I got lots of good comment today, and made me feel good whole day.
It is important to be happy especially because it is Monday, the first day of the week.
I wore a new orange necklace, but it seems like it looked really cheap.
It costed $80 US! But people said it looks like $10!
Ah, maybe I should not bought…
I did not were these shoes today, but these are the shoes I bought the other day, which I love!
I can’t wait to wear them!
The only reason I did not wear today was because it rained today.
I worked quite hard today, but there were so many people who talked to me at work, so it was hard to do everything I wanted to do in order.
I was going to go to gym tonight, but a girl who works for me came to me and she said she needed to talk.
She looked serious, so we decided to go for dinner instead of going to gym.
Then she said, “My boyfriend broke up with me”
I expected that she was going to talk about work, so I was surprised, but at the same time, I felt happy that she trusts me like this.
She talked to me how she felt, and I tried really hard to cheer her up.
I really think after you got a broken heart, you can be much stronger.
I told her being broken up is better than breaking up.
She is a pretty and nice girl, so she should be find and will find a nicer person, I hope.
Boys and girls relationship is hard!
Being boss is interesting.
We discuss lots of stuff including their love relationship.
Gym For Hawaii
Last night, it was hard for me to sleep because I was thinking a lot.
I talked with my first boyfriend on the phone before I go to bed and found out he is getting married this coming Saturday.
I was truly happy for him, but at the same time I got a little sad.
I knew he is going to get married this February but did not know it would be this soon.
We were going to go out to drink for the last time before he gets married, but it did not happen since he lives in Tokyo and I did not have business trip lately.
Of course I am not in love with him now, but 11 years ago, we were such a happy loving couple.
The fact that he is going to get married did not make me sad, but I was sad because we can’t see each other in person anymore forever.
Weird feeling.
I went to gym today as I wrote last night.
We had a long meeting, so we only could take Pilates class but no other stuff.
I weight myself at the gym, and I figured that I gained weight.
Therefore, I was like, “What a heck! I am going to eat before I go home”
After the Pilates class, we stopped by at a local Indian restaurant and had curry.
Bad…
The long meeting was a meeting for coming Hawaii trip after work.
People from a tour company came to give us an orientation how to travel in the US.
Yes, all of us at our company are going to go to Hawaii next month.
I was not excited about it, but now I am quite excited because I can’t wait to be somewhere hot!
I am looking forward to hanging out on a beach in Hawaii under sun.
At the meeting, everyone looked soo happy.
This is why we are trying to lose weight, Hawaii trip.
I have to be skinny enough to wear bikinis before everyone.
Well, maybe it would be much easier to give up on it than to try to lose weight…
Exercising Day
I came home by listening “Keiko Lee” and this flower on the picture waited for me at my apt.
Love flower, dalia!
What a peaceful day!
Today I could get lots of things done efficiently at work.
At the end of the day, I had so many meetings and they bothered me, but I could finish working pretty early.
I went to gym after two months today.
I pay $100 US, but I did not go there because I always had plans after work or was too tired to do exercise.
But finally I went to gym today, and did a lot of work.
Lately I do push-ups and sit-ups every night.
And when I weight myself today at gym, I lost 3 pounds.
3 pounds are big for me at this time, because since last December to January, I ate and drank a lot.
It is kinda natural to gain weight in this season, but I lose 3 pounds!!!
I think I like going to gym, but I just hope I can go more often.
I will go to Tokyo and Hawaii because of my work next month, but my goal is to go to gym 4 times next month at least.
Fun to loose weight!
Fell good to do exercise!
Can’t wait to sleep well tonight!
Got Bonus
Today was my bonus day.
I get extra money twice a year, which is about the same amount as my salary for two months.
But it is only when I get A for evaluation.
When I get B, I get the same amount for 1.5 month salary, and C is even less.
My boss gives my evaluation, and I expected C for this time, because I have not gotten a good result of my any projects yet.
I was nervous to hear about my evaluation, because I did not want to shock.
I knew I have been working really hard, but the fact was that I had not have result yet…
However, I got A!!!
It is miracle! I was so happy that they evaluate me as a hard worker especially because I got B last time, and I was really disappointed
I think many of the employees went out to drink when they get bonus in Japan.
However, I chose to go to Gym, since I did not have to work late.
I took “beginner’s jog” class.
It was such a hard 45 min class, but all the steps were fun and it was good exercise.
Today I got a machine? Box?, which I can watch any movie and dramas for free through internet.
This is a trial campaign or something and I decided to take it.
I had a hard time to figure out how to set it up and use, but I made it!
Now I am watching desperate housewives.
Ahhhh, I should get enough sleep, but can’t stop watching dramas…
Eating Days
Autumn is the best season in a year in Japan for me.
There is so much good food in this season.
So I eat a lot lately.
Not only special food in autumn, but also other normal food makes me hungry.
I recovered from my sickness and since then, I eat, eat and eat.
Today I went to gym after work after two months, so I am kinda sore now.
Although we went to gym to work out to loose our weights, we ruined our all exercise.
My asistant and I could not help going to indian restaurant after gym.
We happened to find it when we were taking a new short-cut to the gym.
We were going to eat instead of going to gym, but we decided to go to gym first and then go to the restaurant.
It has been a while since the last time I ate Indian food.
It was really good.
I like Indian food, but can't eat too much becuase of a bad memory I had before in SF, anyway.
Too bad that I did not have a camera to take a picture of the Indian food we had...
So I put a picture of pasta I had last Sunday, instead.
We had Eggplant Keema Curry, Spinach & Cheese Curry, which is my favorite, and Mango Lassi.
We had cheese nan too, and we totally regret eating these much food.
What was the point to go to the gym...?
Ahhhhh, if we did not eat, we could have lost 1 pound, maybe.
How come I can be so happy by eating tasty food, though?
To be able to eat as much good food as I want, I should go to gym more often.
