Ray and I went shopping today.  In our place, there are not much choice for shopping as there is in Tokyo, Japan , and so we always use the biggest shopping mall around our place. It’s always fun to shop, buying some clothes. And after that we ate out and also drank frozen cappuccinos.  I bought a pair of black sandals and some clothes , and Ray bought a cool T-shirts. Last time , he bought a pair of black shoes that look like peter pan shoes, very unique. So this time, main shopping was for my clothes. While I was in the dressing room at a store, I did notice my extra luggage around my waist.  I gained… I used to have slim body, although my weight was always up and down. Seriously, I decided to lose some weight and get shape after facing the fact. My work is a desk work , and I don’t walk much since I came to the U.S.A. and started working at home. When I was in Japan, I was using so much energy and was always moving, and the transportation in Tokyo was train...

Skating Competition's off season is the time for me to improve whatever other knowledge I would like to learn.  Actually since I got into watching Figure skating ( Johnny Weir ), I didn’t spend much time for something knowledgeable for myself. Well, Johnny’s attraction power is like a magic, like a very powerful magnet. But at least I learned the judging rules of skating, researching skaters etc… I feel happy whenever I get new knowledge which is in a subject I love. Through my work, I have a lot of things I need to learn until everything will go smoothly. I have my personal goal in my life. And I’m still on the way to get there. I will need to 100% focus on it to quickly get there. However, Olympics will be coming this summer…. I love to watch Gymnastic especially women’s and also short and long distance running. In last Olympics, I enjoyed watching some Romanian gymnasts ( for women ) , also Carly Patterson in the U.S.A. But seems like they are not competing anymore.I’ve Ju...

It’s always very excited to see World Championships after US Nationals. Especially for men’s event is always my favorite event. It was really unexpected result ! My prediction for it was 1. Daisuke 2. Lambiel or Verner or Johnny 3. Lambiel or Verner or Johnny And the result was 1. Jeffrey Buttle 2. Brian Joubert 3. Johnny Weir 4. Daisuke Takahashi 5. Stephane Lambiel 6. Kevin VAN DER PERREN 7. Sergei VORONOV 8. Takahiko KOZUKA 9. Patrick Chan 10. Stephen CARRIERE 11. Jeremy Abbot No one was predicting Jeffrey to be the winner, also Joubert had been suffering from his illness and his result for this season was not really going well, so I didn’t predict him to be on a podium. I was soooo happy when I knew Johnny will be on the podium ! I was really hoping for it. It's always wonderful to see Johnny's pure happy smiling face ! I’ve heard that the ice condition there was very bad and Lambiel was complaining about it. I suppose he is a very feeling person and sens...
