I keep this blog for friends, family and students in Japan& the U.S.

Since Spring '07, Zen and Taka moved to California full time for Zen's basketball career. I'm in California most of the time right now too. Almost every day I go to help my Grandmom. She was born in 1919. Taka and I also get to work for Uncle Lynn's landscaping company. Santa Cruz, California. As beautiful as ever. However I still feel homesick for Japan~~

Wk #1 back in Japan 6/7~

My first day back to Japan. Ischin and Naomi- two more gorgeous kids~~ met me at the airport. Our very first stop- to see Sheon-chan. She now works at the liquor store I frequent most!! What a coincidence?!
This photo totally doesn't do justice to the beauty- our sleeping beauty (cause that's what Sheon really does so much of!)
My american camera fudged up so I'm going to have to bother -embarrass- Sheon and take another photo of her soon "to better see her with"


A couple of days after getting back, I went right into the heart of Japan- well Nagoya- not quite the center! But hey- "really Japan" all those dressed up mannequins in YUKATAS!!! You KNOW I'm here!!!



Yesterday, I went back into the city just to watch the NBA playoff at a sports bar (no one else was there to see the game- obviously Japanese don't have any idols of their own in basketball YET- ZEN!!!! ....now baseball- forget it!!!). Naomi went with me, but she went visiting a friend afterwards, so she dropped me off at a bus station so I could get back home. I was figuring out which bus- looking above the driver to see the sign over him on the outside of his bus- looked at him and OH!!! Well, now what a NICE surprise, Ischin old classmate, HIDDE!! Hidemitsu! I used to drive HIM and Ischin to their night high school some years ago all of the time. Hidde- he's the quiet type like Taka- I always found the dear young man quite attractive! Hey, and check out the gloves they have to wear~ The sweetheart let me ride for free too. Nothing like CONNECTIONS!

I'm sorry that I couldn't go to a sports bar. Maybe next time!! Please tell me~
Yes, I think Hidemitsu-kun is good man but I have met him only...one time..? maybe.

See you soon~
