Sad News

It was a normal day for me except a call from Tae.
I got call from Tae when I was working.
He suddenly called me and said he had to leave Japan tomorrow.
He was crying so bad over the phone so I knew something bad happened to him.
His grandma passed away today.
I had met her when I stayed his house back in Korea before for my summer vacation.
She was such a sweet grandma who was really nice to me.
She was in Japan when we did not treat well to Korean people long time ago.
So when she talked to me in Japanese and held my hand, I was so happy and I felt guilty about the time we had a war.
I thought she had such a big heart.
I hate myself that I could not find the right thing to say to him when he was crying.
Today was the last day for me to work at my department.
I will move to R&D department from tomorrow.
I felt a little sad when I was doing daily work at my office.
I am just gonna move to the next building, but it seems like a big deal to move there.
Tonight I had an appointment with my nail artist.
I got my nails really short for a lot of work waiting for me from tomorrow.
She has a tiny dog who sits on me all the time I was there.
She was such a cutie, and I got in love with her quickly.
I wish my dog were as friendly as she was so that more people would love her.
Look how she looked at me.
Can you believe that this was only the second time to see her?
Well, I am going to bed now with thinking of Tae’s grandma tonight.
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…
Gourmet with My Loving People

Today I was pretty busy.
I had big guests from yesterday from early in this morning.
I had so many meetings today.
Although I am busy, I have to enjoy my grummet life.
I went out for lunch break with my sis.
My second father took us out.
He has been my dad’s best friend since they were middle school students.
He does not have any daughter but only a son, so he treats us like his real daughter.
Whenever I am lost, he is a good adviser.
He is one of my favorite person whom I really trust.
The young kid in this picture is his real son.
I have taken care of him since he was a baby.
He is 6 years younger than I, but a couple years ago, he had a different feeling to me, and it was such a complicated situation.
I was shocked because he is like my brother at that time, but finally now he is really like my brother.
He is a good adviser about my Mac computer.
We ate really really good Sushi.
It is the world best Sushi, which I have ever eaten.
I had lots of sweets tasting today.
Because of the best Sushi and this sweets tasting, I was pretty much full.
After a couple of afternoon meeting, I left office with my dad.
Today was “family dinner day” with my loving uncle Koji!
I had not seen him since last September when I went to SF.
I was sooo happy to see him.
I was pretty tired from work today and I was very sleepy tonight, but soon after I saw uncle Koji, I got totally fine!
We went to really good Kushikatsu place.
I am very very very full now.
I have to go to Gym tomorrow for sure!
Business Dinner with Doctors

I just came home from a business dinner.
I had dinner with doctors who are in charge of our special products.
One is a veterinarian and the other is a pet dietician.
Have you heard a pet dietician?
I don’t think there are many of them, but a pet dietician direct pet owners what their pet eat.
It is such an interesting job.
We took them a nice steak restaurant, but it was too much.
I was the one who supposed to take care of everything, but I was kinda slow, so my boss took care of everything, like serving stuff.
I am bad….
Since they were our serious business partners, I could not take any pictures at the restaurant.
I hate to update this blog without any picture so I upload this picture, my sweets.
This is petite chocolate which we just started to sell for Valentine’s Day.
This is one of our popular sweets.
Ahh, Valentine’s Day is coming up!!
Oh, so after we left a steak house, I took them out to a wine bar.
Well, it supposed to a wine bar, but it wasn’t.
We researched by a magazine and totally misunderstood it was a wine bar.
I ordered red wine, but they kept the bottle in a refrigerator!!
No way!
Also the owner said, “I don’t know much about the kind of wine”.
Such a disappointment, but we had a good time.
Doctors are different kind of people from us.
I don’t know how, but different.
Very interesting, but there are so many technical words I could not understand.
Maybe I should study Japanese language more…
One of the doctors is from NY.
There are many similarities between us.
It was fun for me to hear a lot of unknown place in the US, which I might be able to visit the next time.
We will have them to our company to tour them our factories.
It will be a big day tomorrow again!
Bought A New Dress

I watched a video today, “The devil Wears Prada”.
I liked it. It was cute!
I thought I could understand the girl.
I am such a simple person so I get influence from what I see.
In this afternoon, I got a call from my dad.
He asked me, “Are you coming tonight?”
I was like, “Shit!!”.
I totally forgot about an appointment with my dad.
Since my favorite relative, Uncle Koji, is in town, my grandma, my mom and my uncle went no a family trip.
Therefore my dad is alone at home, so he wanted to have my sis and I be around him.
My dad is always with my mom when he is at home, so he is no longer able to be by himself at home.
I was looking for a casual dress, so I was at store.
My dad called me again, “Aren’t you coming yet??”
Hahaha.
I hurried to buy one, so I am not sure if this is the right one I want.
My sister said it was like a maternity dress. Is it??
I don’t know…
Lately I like sweet clothes, like not cool clothes.
Does this mean that I am trying to be looked young?
After dinner, my sis asked me about friendship.
Her friends let her down the other day, and she said she was very disappointed with them.
My advice to her was that, “Don’t expect too much to your friends”.
On the way back to my apt, I was thinking, “ Did I say the right thing?”
Since when have I become such a dry person?
I have lots of good friends, but maybe I try to protect myself by not expecting friends too much.
It does not mean that I don’t respect them or not like them.
Is this a normal thing that all people do?
Hummm.
Time to go to bed now.
Food and Movie

It was hard for me to get up this morning.
I had to because I had to do my laundry today and I was going to see Shinsuke.
I had Spa appointment at 1 PM so the only time I could see him was this morning.
So I had to leave my apt 10:30, but of course I was late.
I am really bad at being somewhere on time so I am always late, but the worse is that Shinsuke who never shows up on time, even today when I got there 30 mins late…
Anyway, we had lunch together and I went to Spa.
My got stiff shoulders.
After the Spa, I did some window-shopping and went back to my apt to hold my laundries.
This picture is what I ate today at my favorite Italian restaurant.
Gratin! Lots of cheese.
Ahhh, too much fat.
After I did some tuff at my apt, I went to pick up my friend form college.
She just got married last May, and now she lives pretty close to me.
We sometimes get together and watch movies or just being lazy together.
Her husband is such a hard worker and he works on weekends too.
She was going to stay over at my apt, but since her husband has been sick, so she decided not to.
They had been together for 10 years, and their relationship was quite weird.
But now she cares about him like taking care of him when he is sick, so I am glad.
Anyway, I was surprised that he went to work on Saturday when he got fever and sick till midnight.
Compared to him, my work maybe nothing…
We had dinner together and she came over to my apt, and she just left.
We watched “Black Dalia”.
I did not get the movie.
It is too complicated, and it was not that interesting.
At the end, we discussed about the story, but both of us did not understand.
I rented two more movies, so I think I will watch one more or go to bed.
Good bye Ms. Yasuda

We had a farewell party for a girl who worked at our company for 7 years.
There are so many housewives working as a part time.
Since they have family, so it is hard for them to leave their family at home as a mother and a wife.
However, since everyone like Ms. Yasuda, so all of us at our apt stayed the party till midnight.
At the end of a party, we gave a present, and many of us cried so bad.
It is sad to see someone leave...
Nobody knows but I am leaving this department next month.
When I think abou it, I was little sad again.
I could catch the last train.
Headache again.
Had a good time at the party.
I am happy that I have lots of nice people around me!
