Next favorite is custard pudding then Cafe Mocha, and then almond, and milk. 

Yucky one is crunchy one.

 

I wanna stop eating chocolate.... otherwise I will be FAT!

My Lovely Washing Machine was out of order last Sun!

It was really really didn't work at all!

 

I put my dirty clothes in the washing machine and

after 10 mins unbelievably it's suddenly stopped!!!

It has not finished rinsing yet! The clothes were full of bubbles! GRRRRRRRRRR!

 

Well, I opened the washing machine cover and checked inside then shut it gently so many times.

but it didn't work....I gave karate chops to its body and said 'Hello? Is there anybody or anything in there?'

but nobody and nothing answered.... Its very quiet. SAD! so.....

I gave knee kicks the washing machine bit hardly. I wanted to wake the unconscious washing machine up!

I strongly wanted to hear the working 'Weeeeeen' sound but it's still bloody unconsciousness.

 

I held the machine funeral in my mind and I took all of my forthy clothes then I washed and rinsed them with my hand!!!

It was bloody freezing!!!! Water was really really icy. My hands got red colour and painful.....

I was miserable....Poor thing. hehehe :P

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

2 days after which was 23th Jan, I just pressed a swich of washing machine without any hope.

Unbelievable the washing machine works!!!!! She revived again!

 

Happy☆・゜:*(人´ω｀*) now

 

Ahhhhh i don't know why I am soooooooo exhausted today.

 

 

I am exhausted today coz I'm not sleeping more than 39 hours. I am not sleeping even for one second.

My brain is very dizzy and doesn't work properly.

 

So....in this morning, I had a long bath for 2 hours. I added a bath milk powder into hot water then I soaked in there.

The white hot water was really soft and it was fragrant sweet condensed milk and I relaxed.

I felt so comfortable. I really felt free and seemed to be in heaven.

 

When I really need to relax, I often use bath powder and perfumes.

I like sweet fragrance such as condensed milk and coconuts milk that these aromas make me relax.

 

After bathing I wore a perfume that smells like milk too. It's a very soft sweet fragrance.

This perfume is called 'Baby Touch' and it was produced by Burberry.

 

Here is Baby Touch.

 

 

I have some perfumes here they are.

 

Lazy Susan (Antonia's flowers and Floret)

A fragrance of a bouquet. My best perfumes.

 

 

Elizabeth Arden (Sunflower) and Kanebo (Nioi Sakura) 

I wore them a lot when I was a young adult but now I wear them only sometimes.

 

 

Chanel (Platinum-Egoiste)

I used to wear it when I was pretended a cool woman but now ummmmm... Never :P

 

 

 

Anyway, I like 'Baby Touch' from 3 or 4 years ago and I really love it.

BUT! My friend suggested to me 'You can't wear it coz when people smell this milky smell with you,

everyone says you have a 0 month old baby!' :P  <coz my age!

Who cares :P

We had a huge snow last weekend and there are still on roads.....

 

 

Well, I was riding on a bicycle this morning when I slipped and fell on my lovely buttocks on hard icey snow very badly!!!! 

 

                                            

↓That is an imaginary photo :P

 

It was bloody sore and I thought my coccyx was broken and I almost cried!  :P

I knew it there were icy roads everywhere but .... I wanted to sleep longer which means I had to go by bicycle not to be late.

You know, here in Matsumoto is bloody winter season and it's freezing in the mornings so I wanna stay my warm bed as long as possible :P

 

Well, I couldn't sit on a chair while I worked at an office. I sat down only with buttocks of the right side :P
It's so hard sitting like this .... but it's much better than sitting with both side. hahaha

 

When I was having a bath I massaged my lovely buttock^^ 

Ummmmmmm? but Still SORE!

I strongly hope I don't get a blue bruise just like a cutie baby bum!

 

By the way....

There was a party at work place. (Kagami biraki)

We ate 'oshiruko' that made from rice cakes with azuki bean soup.
Its sweet and tasty^^. I ate 4 rice cakes as a dinner :P  Im soooooooooo full now^^

And you know, Free meals are lovely coz I didn't need to cook for meals!!!! YAY!!!

 

Here is an 'oshiruko'.
 

 

Offering for toshigami (year's god) settled on 'tokonoma' (Japanese alcove) in a new year celebration.

It consists to pile up 2 or 3 round rice cakes (lower is bigger) and put a "daidai" (bitter orange) at the top. We call it 'kagamimochi'

It comes from a shintoist rite (the mirror is a god's symbol for them) but has been generalized since Muromachi period with an appearance of 'tokonoma'.

On January 11th, it will be cut off into small pieces to be cooked such as 'oshiruko'.

The ceremony is called 'kagami biraki', i.e. 'mirror opening'.

 

Here is a 'kagamimochi'

 

You are killing meeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

You wanna make me suffer from fooooooood. Blo☆dy snowing, mam!!!!

 

It's snowing a lot today too!!! and huuuuuge snow here! 40cm deeps!!!!!!! Unbelievable!!

I wanted to go to a shop to get some fooooooooood coz my refrigerator is starving now!

He is crying!!!!! He says 'Give me fooooooooood otherwise you will die, Jinkoooooooo!'

 

I don't have a car. Yeah I have a bicycle but it's totally very not good to ride it in the heavy snow.

I don't wanna hit my head! I don't wanna get a crazy brain more than now!

And I don't wanna go to the shop on foot! It's bloody hard to walk in snow!!!!

It's deep so I have to up my legs a lot! Up and down up and down is soooooooooooo HAAAAAAAARD!

I don't need muscler legs anymore!

 

But... I don't wanna die so I've strongly decided to go shopping for YUMMY food tomorrow!!!

Hope it'll be a blo☆dy sunny day and the Sun melts snow in a minutes tomorrow so that I can ride my bicycle! IMPOSSIBLE!

 

SNOW! Bloody snowing all day!!!! ENOUGH!

About 30cm deep!!!!!

 

But the scenery is just beautiful.

Flower of whipped creams bloomed to trees (^0^)/ Looks YUMMY!

 

Well, I went to English School today..... It's so hard to get there cos of snow...

Paths were very slippery. Difficult to walk...

It will be snowing tomorrow again so I canceled tomorrow's lesson.

Oh well, I have to buy a pair of long boots...

 

 

I added some photos in 'Snow' album^^

After the new year's party we (dad, mum and me) went to a shinto shrine that protects our town.

My dad and mum wanted to return a paper object that is believed to bring good luck or avert evil for us during last year.

My house has a small shirine at home for praying before god and we put the paper object there.

Actually I am not a good believer :P but my parents believe like these Japanese stuff.

Ummm not believe deeply but they treat them a lot as a kind of Japanese culture. 

Well, I ate food and put my weight a lot recently so I decided to follow my parents to have some exercise :P 

We had a nice long walking for 30 mins and we got there.

 

Here is an entrance

 

After arriving there my parents realised that they have forgotten to bring the paper objcect!

Yeah! That is my parents! They are sometimes silly billies :P

But my parents shifted minds quickly and we had pray......They are soooooooo cute :D

 

Here is a shrine

 

I prayed something um???? not pray I asked to god to make my wish come true :P hehehe

After praying we went home.

When my dad open the door at a room. We saw strange thing and everyone was stopped :P

Do you know why? because the paper object was fallen down on a floor from the small shirine.

We know the paper was there and we can't believe that it's possible to fall down.

So we were bit scared when we saw it :P

 

Because I'm very optimistic I thought like this way.

We totally forgot to take it to the shrine so the paper object wanted to make us notice it 'Take me to the shrine, Please!' 

and fallen down from the small shrine by itself. It must used big power to move!!! and It got success! and It thought 'YAY! now they (dad, mum and me) can miss me!'

But unfortunatelly we are selfish so we didn't norticed its sigh and gone :P

Sooooooo the paper object might thought 'Oh well... I did my very effort to fall from my house.....Now what I can do? I am lonly!'

I imagined like this and laughed :P The paper object is soooooooooooooo CUTE now!!!!

 

Well, I shouldn't laugh. Sorry mate :P

We will never forget to take you next time!!!! Belive us!!!!! Can't????       hehehe

 

 

 

I drew a fortune slip at the shrine.

Ofcourse it says 'Very good luck' coz of Happy New Year :P

A Happy New Year, Friends!!!!! Its 2007!!!!

 

Did you had a lovely New Years Eve and a exciting New Year?

Yeah I had :D I really enjoyed spending time with my parents!

 

On 1st of Jan, we had a solemn new years meeting @ home. Hehe.

 

It's not a new thing for our family. We have it evey new years.
In this time, there were 3 people attended. Me and mum and dad. Always same members :P 

Before starting a new years party, my dad had a small speech that was his hopes....

um his achievements for 2007.
Me and mum sit on our seats then my dad started speaking.....

'Happy New Year everyone!! and thank you very much for attending this party! and I am happy to start new year with you again.'
My dad always starts his speech like this and I love it because it's bloody FUNNY for me.

He says 'EVEYONE', yeah there are everyone who are me and my mum, futhermore, he says thank you for 'ATTENDING'.

Hahaha, yeah we are family and my mum lives with him in a same house!

He continued 'last year 2006 was excellent year because we were all healthy and we (dad and mum) traveled around Europe for a couple of months.

Jinko got a great job in Matsumoto. Every hopes came true!!!

They were all made perfectly by our beautiful efforts! Thank you thank you thank you everyone!'

I almost bursted into laughter :P He says like this thing without serious face but not makes his speech funny on purpose. I always can see his real sweet shyness personality in his speechs :D

Anyway he started to concluse 'In 2007, I hope everyone has healty life with a full of happiness!'

and he tried to say 'KANPAI'(cheers). Yeah actually my dad and me almost saying 'Kanpai' with lovely tastey sake.

But suddenly my mum said with pure smile 'Only Jinko hasn't made one of her wish!! and I hope she can make it true in this year! KANPAAAAAI'.

Then we all had kanpai together and the party was starting.

And they got drunk. Looked soooo happy.

 

Oh well. Poor dad. I know my dad wants to say 'Kanpai' but he always can't do it.

Unfortunately, my mum always has a final conclusion and steals 'kanpai' word from my dad!!!!

but I also know my mum does it without purpoerly :D

I love my parents who are very CUTE! and I am so happy I have both of personalities 'shiness' from my dad and 'optimistic' from my mum. Hehehe.

All of food has meanings I'll add the meaning later.
