Family Friday

Crazy Uncle

I have lunch every Tuesday and Friday with my sister.
Today, we went to Italian restaurant and had garlic spaghetti, and we both got really stinky…

I had a rough day today at work.
We had a presentation but my partner screwed, and my boss got really mad, so I could not go home early.
I had to go home early since my uncle was at my parent’s home with my sis.
My sis cooked for my uncle and me.
I had dinner while they were watching me eating since they had already finished eating.
After my dinner, we all decided to go to Karaoke.

Guess how long we sang.
We sang for two and a half hour.
We went home at midnight.
What a bad family!
I am so sleepy but it worth!
We had such a good family time.

I Complain

Working With My Boss Is Not Easy

I had a quick meeting in this morning about pie shell.
Recently, we have several R&D meeting about each project.
I feel we had too many meetings, but we have to…
After the meeting, I attended a manager meeting from each department.
I was an amanuensis for the meeting.
And I went to restaurant to meet a chef to ask for a comment about our product.
I always get nervous to meet chefs, since I have to have certain knowledge about cooking about technical things and words.
He was nice and I learned a lot from him.
Meeting with lots of famous people is fun part about this job.

Since my day went quickly like this by doing many things, I was late for dinner tonight.
I went out to drink with 8 people from sale department from Tokyo branch and Nagoya branch.
People from sale department are funny.
They know how to entertain people because of their job.
They are tough and drink a lot.
We were all drunk and complained about my boss.
I should not have complained about my boss to them, but could not help since he was so hard on me lately.
I felt a little relief that everybody had the same impression about my boss and wondering how to treat him.

We went to Karaoke after dinner till 2 in this morning.
It is nice to hang out with them once in a while like this.
Ah, I wish I were a member of a sale department.

Party!

Party To Celebrate A Success Of Conventions!

I am drunk.
All members in Osaka who joined two conventions we exhibit last February and March got together tonight.
We went to shitty Italian restaurant close to our office.
11 of us had such a good time.
I had a headache since I laugh too hard.

We went to Karaoke afterwards.
It has been a while since the last time I went to Karaoke.
We had such a good time.
The members who went to Karaoke after dinner were all young.
So I felt like I went back to my high school days.
I took cab with all other people who live close to my apt.
Ahhh, I can’t stay up any later tonight.

Japanese Pub

First Pub Experience

I work in Osaka today and left for Tokyo for business this afternoon.
I was going to meet a business-related person who gave me a book before.
It has been a while since I got the book, but I had not read it yet.
Since I did not want to be rude to him, while I was on a fight to Tokyo and on a train in Tokyo, I read a whole one book very quickly.
It was about a girl who took over her father’s business and got success.
The title of the book is “ If president of the company changes, the company would change too”.
Obviously, I am not going to take over my father’s business, but somehow he thinks that I am going to.
Also he thought that the girl in a book is really similar to me, so he bought a book for me.
It was actually an interesting book, and her characteristic was quite similar to mine…

When I got in Tokyo, I worked at hotel room and finished several work till the time I get together with people from other companies.
It was another “Forgetting Year Party” again.
Today’s menu was chicken, which was not my favorite.
After we had dinner, we went to a Japanese pub, which had a band who sings Oldies.
There were some girls who dresses sexy and served alcohol to men.
They make hella lot of money.
It was my first experience to see those girls in real.
It was interesting to see them, and I thought it seems like what they do is something I am good at.
I love talking with people, so smiling and serving alcohol to men is a piece of cake.
I sometime do the same thing for work situation, so I could work at pub and make a lot of money like they do.
Easy!

Before the band comes, it was Karaoke Pub, sort of.
Some Americans were there and sang lots of English song, but quite horrible, unfortunately.
They looked happy and they danced with other old Japanese people too.
I was invited to sing with an old guy a song “Hey Paula”.
I was a vocalist in a band when I was teenager, but I was so embarrassed to sing in front of lots of people at pub.
Look how horrible I look in this picture…
I could not refuse.
Anyway it was such a weird interesting night which I did the first experience in my life.
Being Japanese businesswoman is tough, huh??

Pretty Good Day

Easy Day

I took longer to get ready today than usual, and was going to be late for work in this morning.
Took a cab to work two days in row...
Anyway, today was a pretty good day.
Not too busy, could get along with everybody.
I had lunch with three younger workers and we discussed about many things.
I get excited talking with those girls, because they got so much possibilities since they are really young and pure, and I wish I could help them a bit.
Maybe I am going to be changed my position soon, and will be able to work with them at the same department.

My apple pies were baked today as a sample by using apples I got in Nagano the other day.
The artisan brought me the first one to let me taste.
I was so moved!! It was soooooooo delicious!!
Lately, I am getting good at tasting, good at telling difference.
They gave me two similar sweets and I could tell what the difference was right away.
They got surprised and I was proud of myself.
I felt glad that I ate so many kinds of cakes since I had complex about tasting before.
The effort is rewarding!!


I had a dinner appointment tonight, but it was postponed suddenly.
So I saw my friend, Shinsuke, tonight.
He was very energetic, so I always impress about his energy to work really hard and also to play around with girls.
When we set up the time and place to see each other, I was a bit frustrated with his selfishness.
So I was almost going to cancel the dinner, but I didn't.
Soon after I saw him, I understood why he sounded selfish, and I felt a bit guilty that I felt frustrating to him.
He looked so tired and he complained about his work as the first time. (He never had before)
Moreover, he got a broken heart with a girl whom he was interested in.
Lately, I listen to many of my friends’ “broken heart” stories.
How come boy’s sad story sounds more miserable than girl’s…?
Although they get hurt from love, but still being in love is good for them, no matter what.
I was going to have a quick dinner and go home, but he asked me to go to Karaoke with him.
So we did.
He thanked me that he could refresh by singing lots of sad song to cheer himself up.
Boys are romanticist like this.

By the way, he teased me about my girly shirt and hairstyle today.
I usually don’t wear girly clothes so I was kinda embarrassed but tried.
Not to be looked too girly, I made my hair regent style today.
My colleagues liked my style today though...

Ahhhh, what should I wear tomorrow, what kind of hairstyle should I do…???
Gotta go to bed now, can’t take a cab three days in row…
