It's been a year since I left Vancouver. I still can't believe it. I was in Montreal a year ago. It's amazing. I need to enjoy my current life like the one at the time.
Hm.. that guy is totally professional of discouraging people. Wow great. The timing when he comments is always perfectly annoying. It's like an art in a sarcastic way. OK, I'll stop.

[ John Petrucci ]
Hm ... our keyboardist at the time Kevin Moore. He didn't want to come on the awake tour, because he didn't like John Myung. This was really weird for us, coz we had no idea who John Myung was. It's quite weird.
[ Mike Portnoy ]
The bad part was all the lies and excuses he tried to make to us, like ... I can't play the keyboard anymore, I forgot ... and stuff like I've got really bad diarrhea so I can't come on the Awake tour. Just a load of random shit.
[ James LaBrie ]
I think it all went pear-shaped for Kevin, when we were recording our first album, Images and Words, he wanted to call it, "Images and Turds" which is pathetic and ridiculously stupid, I think he's a dumb bitch.
[ John Myung ]
I never said a single word to Kevin in my entire life and while I didn't say a single word ever to the other guys either, but He's a just... I'm confused he's just a fucked up bitch.
Calm down Mr.Myung ... there's children present. It's not your fault Kevin left...
Okay, so I'm pretty much ... amazing.
But anyway, like I said, you can't really play that fast, because I'm just so fast, you know.
Now, there's any point if you feel like it's too difficult, then just stop, you know.
Coz you just ... you don't have ... you just not good.
I'm going up to 4 million, I felt like I was putting it up to 5 million.
But it's good idea to stop and put the guitar down and sell it on the eBay or something,
because you are shit.
Let's ... I was about 5 billion, let's back it up to about 4 billion and let me just shred it up there, you know, ... your shit.
[ Guitar play 2]
Then go back to about 5 million, then see how good I am.
[ Guitar play 3]
Okay, so similarly, if you can't do that, you're shit. You could start about 10, but you probably couldn't do any more. So for 15, you just stop and put your guitar on eBay, and quit, just...
Here's some advice.
CHANDLER: So I have a flaw! Big deal! Like Joey's constant knuckle-cracking isn't annoying? And Ross, with his over-pronouncing every single word? And Monica, with that snort when she laughs? I mean, what the hell is that thing? ...I accept all those flaws, why can't you accept me for this? チャンドラー:「ジョーイの指鳴らしや、ロスの異常に細かい丁寧な発音や、モニカの笑う時に鼻を鳴らす事や、、それらはうっとうしくないのかよ?」
JOEY: ...Does the knuckle-cracking bother everybody? ジョーイ:「まてよ、指鳴らすのはそんなにうざいかい?」
RACHEL: Well, I-I could live without it. レイチェル:「うーん、ジョーイのは確かに余計な癖だよね」 (直訳:なくても生きていけるわね。)
JOEY: Well, is it, like, a little annoying, or is it like when Phoebe chews her hair? ジョーイ:「なんだって?フィービーの髪をなめる癖みたいにうっとうしいって事?」
ROSS: Oh, now, don't listen to him, Pheebs, I think it's endearing. ロス:「フィービー、耳をかすな。俺はかわいいと思うよ。」
JOEY: Oh, "you do, do you"? ジョーイ:「あなたはそうおもいますか?」 (ロスの正しい英語口調をまねて丁寧に言って嫌味を強調)
ROSS: You know, there's nothing wrong with speaking correctly. ロス:「正確に話すことが何がわるいんだ?」
RACHEL: "Indeed there isn't"... I should really get back to work. レイチェル:「そうねぇ、いかにも。正確に話すことには一切問題ございませんわ。」 (丁寧な話をいやみで強調) レイチェル:「さ、仕事に戻らなきゃ」
PHOEBE: Yeah, 'cause otherwise someone might get what they actually ordered. フィービー:「そうね、じゃないと、もしかしたら誰か注文通りのコーヒーを受け取っちゃうかもしれないからね」 (ちゃんと仕事をすると注文通りのコーヒーを出せないから仕事さぼっている今注文通りのコーヒーが出てきちゃうかもっていう事をにおわせた嫌味)
RACHEL: Ohh-ho-hooohhh. The hair comes out, and the gloves come off. レイチェル:「ふーん、髪の毛が口から出てきたと思ったら、喧嘩の準備ができているようね」
I have a little bit of plan. But it needs some time to get it done. I think I'm suffering something tough. Yet I hate hating somthing. Face the situation. I'm sort of excited on the other hand. I feel like in a rush.

RACHEL: And you've got lenses! But you hate sticking your finger in your eye!
BARRY: Not for her. Listen, I really wanted to thank you.
ここの Not for her はついつい逆の意味にとらえてしまいそうなので気をつけよう! 意味は、 レイチェル:コンタクトレンズにしたの?目に指を突っ込むの嫌がってたじゃない! バリー:彼女のためならなんでもないさ!聞いてよ、俺は君に感謝してるんだ。
って事。Not for her を「彼女のためじゃないよ」と訳さないように!! ここでは、細かい話をすると、Not は hate に対しての否定で、 「彼女のためなら Not 」つまり、「彼女のためなら don't hate」 つまり、「彼女のためならなんてことないさ」みたいな感じになるのだよ!

みんなはモニカの部屋で雑談中。 モニカはクッションのほこりを徹底的にはらって神経質っぷりをアピール。 チャンドラーが丸めた紙クズにもモニカは腹を立てる。 レイチェルが現れ婚約指輪を無くしたことを告げる。 レイチェルはラザニアを見て思い出す。たぶん、ラザニアの中に指輪が入ってしまった事を。 モニカ怒る。 MONICA: I gave you one job! みんなでラザニアをほじくり指輪を探し始める。 ロスが暗い顔で現れ、キャロルが妊娠している事を告げる。

Well.. it's pretty much hard to live a life as I myself am. Actually so many chances and stupid crappy things are surrounding us everywhere. What makes me annoyed? What was the problem in my previous decision? People, include me, mistakenly think the problem is in thier circumstances, nonetheless, it's I believe always in my mind. Whenever chances come, it also brings risks as well. In other word, you need to take a risk when you want to seize your chance. Boy..do not be scared of anything. Nothing hurts you seriously actually. What you think it's really critical is usually not so big deal afterward. All you/I can do is just be strong, experience anything, think and try your hardest. Hang in there, man!!
Hey, what's up, shawty! This time, where I'm ganna introduce is also my neighbor called Shibamata, the location of the movie "Otokowa tsuraiyo". You know, it's the neighbor of Torasan, the real man among men, as everybody know. Well, honestly, I've never seen even a story of the series though. lol Shibamata is located in Katsushika ward where I settle down now, as all of you guys have already known. My friends I met in Vancouver and I planed going sightseeing there, since it's once of a few real sightseeing place in Tokyo, like Asakusa. Despite the meeting place, Shibamata station, I went there by my motorcycle, since I thought it's more convenient. Yet it was the hell mistake. Shibamata is totally not a place I can park my motorcycle, because there were no streets bike can cross. Damn it. I ended up parking at a Pachinko store, arrived at the station and met my dear friends who asked me to treat Ice candy as soon as I met them. Crap! There was a Torasan's statue in front of the station. I thought it looked much better than real Kiyoshi Atsumi. We hang out the neighbor and went to Taisyakuten shrine. We found a drawing of Taisyakuten, a god of ... well, I don't really know. Sorry. Honestly I didn't expected a lot at first, however I really enjoyed there. You can also pick something to eat on the street. I really recomend spending some time here, when you want to feel relaxed. You can come visite me anytime 'Nd I'll take you guys sightseeing places in Katsushika.
Holy crap! This was far different from "Hiking" sounds like!! We walked
up to the camping ground in the mountain where is pretty close to
Whistler. We were heading for Black tusk eventually. I brought only a
pack of cookie for my meal in this 2 days camping. Besides I only had a
litter bottle of water. Those were totally not enough. The mountain was
so much steep slope. Who told me this was esier than Grouse mountain!!
7 hours walking for one way was totally killing me. But finally we
reached the camping ground by the lake so-called Gribaldi lake. It was
sooooooooooo beautiful!! Yet we were still on the way to the top... We
stayed a night there in tents. Fuckin' heavy rain sounds whole night,
and it made me be worried. Next day, Luckyly the weather was fine!
On the way to the top of the mountain Black tusk, we just left our most
gear and kept walking. The scenery changed a lot. First we were walking
in the forest, then open field apeared, finally we could only see rocks
and snow! It was so much amazing. It was pretty cold, hazy and foggy.
You could see wide view only once in a while when the mist disappered
for few seconds. It looked like we were in the heaven. The mountain was
so much majestic! We all were so much moved. Eventually we arrived the
place which people were prohibited to go. However they just kept
walking. Jonas, Sean, Aurelia, Tao, Elesa, Yoichi and I arrived almost
the top. Catrina was already worn out and just gave up to climb at the
end of the walking trail. Tao, Yoichi and I also gave up the final rock
climbing part. The view was just incredible and deserved climbing. We
returned to the check point where we past before. On the way there, we
saw 2 small cute animals which most likely a kind of Muskrat on the
ground. They were approximately 50cm long. They were so cute. I love to
see wild animals. Then we caught up Catrina finally. We all were
totally worn out too. First we were waiting rest of us. But at last, we
just left there and started walking down hill. When I arrived at home,
I felt I survived anyways... Oh by the way, when we reached the
parking lot, Catrina just ran over my left foot by her car!!! I was
soooooooooooooo shocked, you know? When I was still loading my bag on
her car, she suddenly started driving. I thought what kind of joke it
was!!! Yes, it was just an accident. She just misunderstood I'd already
been in her car though. Anyway, the trip was pretty much tiring but
much funner!
Hellow everybody, first of all I need to inform you my graduating from
the school. I canNot believe it past a year since I started. Everything
is like happened yesterday, you know. As some people know I am the one
who attends this school the longest. Because of that, I had spent so
many time with several generations of friends and classmates. When I
had a hard time, so many people helped me. Please let me say thank you
guys. I somehow finished everything. I don't know if you know, yet I
several times attempted quitting school. This is my opinion though, my
school is unfortunately Not good enough. You know what? A month ago a
woman who saw my homepage sent me a e-mail to ask me how is the school
like. Yeah, she is completely stranger to me. Anyways, at the time I
had to say "My school is definitely bad". This is pretty sad, isn't it?
Yet this is the fact. In spite of that, I still miss my school.
Finishing this school is .. well how can I say, kind of sad. Though
I complaint, I was kinda lucky as well when it comes to practicum and
internship. My practicum task was flash project which is for insurance
company. And internship was web designing company. The office was
pretty neat, people are great! location is in Gastown. This is a bit
far though, still in downtown, eh? Oh my gosh. everything has done. Oh
my goodness. Now I really want to know what's going on with you
guys. Are you guys doing well? Do you ever get in touch with Raymond,
or the other instructors? Hope you guys are doing pretty well. And I
may catch up with you guys soon or later. All of you guys whom I met
and spent lot's of time in Bodwell school, I appreciate you so much.
Oh,
by the way, my going back to Japan is still a little bit later. I'm
staying Vancouver little bit more and go traveling then. Anyhow, I'll
let you know when I decided my plan.
Did you know what Arnold Schwarzenegger, the Gov. of California, is in
Canada now? I watched the TV news and I saw his speech on TV yesterday.
You can feel a bond with him, aren't you? Today I had an
appointment to have lunch with Chris, my client of the practicum task.
I was supposed to meet him at 12:00. While I was sleeping in the
morning, I got the ring from someone. I woke up and answerd it and it
was Chris. I checked the time and I realized when it was 12:05.
Ooooops!! I over slept a lot! What'll I do? how can I answer him?
Somehow told him I'm late and I'll come up at 12:30. When I arrived his
office, he said "What kind of restaurant do you want to go?, I had an
idea before but I kind of have to change since we don't have enough
time." Uh-Oh... I was so sorry Chris, but I couldn't tell what I was
sleeping. haha...Then we went to the restaurant on Thurlow St. As we
ordered, Chris suddenly mumbled something. I just "perdon me?". "Arnold
Schwarzenegger...". What!? Boy, it canNot be happened, men. As I said
in my mind, I turned around my neck and what I saw was Arnold
Schwarzenegger sitting at the table behind us!!! OH MY GOD!!! Arnold
Schwarzenegger!!!!!! Once more, OH MY GOD! I canNot believe my eyes. He
just appeared naturally and just sat on the chair and eating as if he
is a normal guy. Of cource there were several security guard though. I
still remember the impact of Terminater 2. Surprising thing was what
people didn't bother him, although everybody knew there was him.
According to Chris, the restaurant is sort of high class place and
people really care to harass them. But Chris looked excited too.
Waitresses pretended not to be excited. Yet some of them whispered his
name. As the atomosphere, I couldn't take any picture. That's my only
remorse.
Folks, I went to White Rock again with a friend! The weather was nice,
everything was good. And it was kind of a great time. When we arrived
in White rock we went to the pier typically. And of course check the
big white rock and took some pics. then played near water to look for
small fish. The scenery was so awesome and everybody around us were not
asian. If you want to spend some calm and slow moment, you should visit
this place. We ate fish and chips there. Then we went to the park
called "Peace arch park". The park is located on the border of U.S. We
were supposed to get there on foot from the coast. While we were
walking, a old guy who felt sorry to us found us from his car and
talked to us, "I think the park you're heading for is so far to walk,
that I'll take you guy there by my car." Though I hesitated for a
second, soon after we nodded our head and got there. They were so kind
to us. We were lucky. The park was really cozy and pretty nice
surroundings. In the park surprisingly you can see the border of U.S.
There is a big white gate in the center of the wide space and you
actually can cross by on your foot easily. We didn't though. On the way
back we found crowds of clover. So my friend said, "Whenever I see
clover, I always feel like seek a four leaves one." In fact I'd never
seen the actual four leaves clover in my life. So I just said, "Oh,
does it really exist? That is a kinda sperstition, isn't it?". Then we
started looking for one. Then I found one!! Bullshit! Oh, my gosh! Does
it really exist?? First I couldn't stop laughing. Hey, anyhow my wish
will come true soon or later. Cool, men!
I took part in Vancouver Sun Run! This is one of the biggest annual
event in Vancouver. You know? the number of the participants are such
as 55 thousand. They were separated by the color, Blue, Yellow,
Green, White, Purple, Red. Blue starts first and Red does the last. My
bib's color was Red and started with the final group. Starting gate was
located on Georgia st. and Thurlow st. and you know what? Red's waiting
area was Seymore st. which is located on five block away from the
starting area!! Then you can guess how crowded it was! On the street we
could only see the crowd of people. it was so crazy! First we headed
for Stanley park, then ran along with English bay, cross the Barrurd
Bridge, went to Canbie bridge and cross this and finish at B.C. place.
It was 10km. I hadn't done any kinds of sports lately. I was so anxious
of this 10km. but it was just so much fan. nothing was problem. Hey,
see I proved I'm still such young! Oh, I'm looking forward to the Vancouver sun news paper tomorrow. Coz participants' names will be on the paper! Yeah.
Hello everybody! I finally went to see Ice hockey game. Though the game
was WHL which is sort of junior league(under 20), that was
sooooooooooooo amasing!! I'm afraid to say, but I say that was totally
different from Canadian football. I didn't have any knowledge of
football when I saw lions game, and I totally couldn't understand what
was going on at the time. But hockey is different. just exciting!! The
place we went is PNE stadium where I saw dog show in summer. And you
know what? I found a spirit-bear named Hastings which is sold in last
November. As some of my friends know, I'm the one who was correcting the spirit-bears pics, so I was so excited!! Oh,
and let me surprise you, we didn't pay anything and we used the
official's door to enter the stadium and surprisingly our sheets were
right behind the fence!! Imagine that, it must have been wild, huh? In
fact our friend Maintja was the every reason why we could be treated
like that. She does volunteer at food bank. then her boss is one of
authority of WHL. Cool, man! The game was between Vancouver Giants
vs bla-bla Cougars. Giants won 2 - 0. Oh, there's a thing I found. The
officials were wearing the clothing that sais, "OFF ICE OFFICIAL". That
pretty funny, do you know what I'm saying? Then we went to have some
food and We spent perfect time there. Actually one of my school friend
is going back to Japan the day after tomorrow. This time might be the
last time to see her in vancouver. hope we can meet in Japan. After
I went back home, I realized that the TV show Giants vs Cougars game is
going on!! Wow, that must be the game we saw today!! And guess what we
all were on TV. Since our sheets were the 1st row. Do you know what I
mean? I finally debuted in Canada!! wahaha.
I went to bed at 4 o'clock last night, because I had a party with Ken. So I got up at 11am..... Right after I woke up I went to have a hair cut. Though I also have an appointment with Ali and his friends, it starts at 8:00 PM, so I had so much time. I just called my friend to kill some time at Starbucks. On
the way there, what I just found was trees which have pink blossom
beside the street! I just was wondering if it was Cherry blossom??? You
know what? It is still March 3rd, eh? I just come close to those trees,
so that I wanted to fegure out whether it was or not. Then those were
definitely cherry blossom! I can't believe that. and they were sort of
full bloom. It's too early. Moreover nobody broadcast the condition of
cherry blossom. Those were just standing alone calmly as if nothing
happened. Those ones just reminded me of my arriving in vancouver. I
still clearly remember what I saw when I reached van. I almost spent
a year here. Oh, shit! What did I achieve here? what can I come through
from now on? Ah-, I don't want to think about that. Oh btw, Ali just
came back from Japan temporally. He was pretty fine. and the restaurant
was amazing! We called it a day at 11pm, then I felt just I still have
some time, so I joined Phil, Nathan's party. Their party was crazy. I'd
never seen that big and crazy party. 90% of them were Caucasian people
and evrybody got dranken tooooo much and spilled tons of alcohol on the
floor. It was wild, but bit scarely as well. Oh, what a mess!!!!! But I
could pretty much enjoyed. Go crazy!
Hey buddy! I've just come home from my birthday party now! And my class
mates had my birthday party yesterday too! So I had 2 birthday parties
on Friday and Saturday in a row. I really want to say thank you for
everybody! I'm very happy. Oh, I remember that I was drawn graffiti on my face 2 days in a row as well. ...(-. -;) The
party on Friday was originally called "Takoyaki party" and my class
mates prepare cake with fireworks instead of candles. That was kind of
surprising. I was dranken, everybody got dranken and I spent so much
fun time. Then today I had another one basecally organized by PGIC
friends. I got lots of gifts from them. I'm so glad them. I got
perfume, Dream theater's DVD, clothing for my daughter(???), cookie,
chocolate, amulet and antiplaque mouthwash which is actually
leftover(???). I'm very glad you guys. I'm so happy. you can see some
of the presents are something strange though. haha.
In fact some
of my friends who couldn't come to the party gave me a phone call or
sent me a e-mail to celebrate me as well. I just thank everybody.
Then I'm going to be a 29th on Feb. 20th. This is my last year of my 20's. I have to be more mature.
Oh, as I said, everybody drew graffiti on my face, then let me introdece what the hell they wrote down on my face. They wrote such as, "crap", "I'm gay", "SEX", "meat" on my forehead, and so forth. Don't you think it's a punishment?
Holy shit! I don't feel good now. I don't know why. There's no reason.
Am I bored or scared of something? I don't know. I have no idea.
Somehow I feel down. I guess I shouldn't think seriously. It could be
just a temporary poroblem. However, because of that, I think I'm pretty
short temper now. I hate that. Hey, hang in there. All I need to do is
being confident and more humble. Come to think of that, I can say I'm
very immature. Crap
oxing day is the day after christmas and you can buy whatever you want extremely cheaper than usual.
There is not such a culture in my country. So I was really interested
in it. Since I'd been standing the life without a guitar, I was aiming
to buy one in this opportunity. However I just thought that I don't
want to bring one to Japan. SoI was supporsed to buy the cheapest guitar, less than $100 in the store though...
On the boxing day; 26th of Dec. I reached Tom Lee, a musical instrument store in Vancouver downtown, and started looking for the cheapest one like $100 or so. Then what I found was... Ooh!! This must be Fender U.S.A.!!!!!!!
Well.. what's the condition?? Cherry sun burst, alder body, maple neck,
maple fingerboard, in addition that has a 22nd fret as well.
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh!! This must be! This must be!! What I wanted to buy is
that!!! Let's see...What's the price??? Noooooooooooooooooooohh! It's ONLY $1190!
Geeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! that's very cheaaaaaaaaaaaaap! Oh, no!
What'll I do?? If I buy this one, how can I bring it to the metropolis
Okazaki city? Before of all, can I live my rest of vancouver life? Oh,
but this Fender is waiting meeeee! Oh, gosh! Hey, let's try playing to
check the sound. Wow, the sound is pretty good. and you know, how good
the feeling is? It just for me...
Well, well, well... something is strange. Haven't I looked for the cheapest
in the store??? What the hell am I thinking of! Satoshi! don't be
defeated by my impulse! Forget about it, Satoshi! I can buy fender in
Japan, can you? Not now Satoshi! Not a chance!!!!! I don't afford to
buy stuff costs more than a thousand!! It's impossible. Don't do that
Saaaaatoooshiiiiii!!!
At last I could stop my impulse. Finally what I bought was a guitar costs $89 include tax. The brand I bought was "MRW"!!!
I don't know!!! I've never heard that and it's just cheap. but I
didn't have to pay like $1000. Oh, I almost die. Anyhow, I finally got
the guitar here in Vanoucver!!!! yeah!!! I hadn't played for more than
8 months. Please forgive my laziness Mr.Kamadoneko master and Mr.Suzuki. Somehow I've got now and I'll practice a lot. Well...don't ask me the question, "What about your study?" Somehow I'm happy!
