My review - 2015 US Nationals Figure skating competitions

It was so exciting and thrilling to watch US Nationals Figure skating competitions this year ! I really liked how NBC covered all the US nationals events. It was also great to see Terry Gannon, Johnny Weir and Tara Lipinski  back together again for the commentary ! Because they are so fun and makes me feel great so I really love watching these three together's appearance. Also, it was enjoyable to watch the scenes with many skaters's impressive Kiss & Cry moments during the events. I thank you to NBC ! About the events, My favorite events were men's and ice dancing this year. Men Men's competition, winner was unpredictable seeing the results of Grand Prix Series. No one was qualified for GPF this season, so I thought Jason Brown, Jeremy Abbott, Max Aaron, Richard Dornbush, Adam Rippon, Joshua Farris,   anyone of them could win. Result 1    Jason Brown      SP: 93.36   FP:181.62  ...

My review - "Gone with the Wind"

Happy New Year ! It's 2015 !!! How was your new year holiday ? I'm feeling like time flies faster and faster every year, and I feel like the more we get older,  the more it gets faster, I don't know why ? Fortunately the year of 2014 was a peaceful year for me and my husband.  I'm very grateful that we both could keep healthy without getting any health problems and have been in healthy relationship. We will keep on caring for our health because that's the most important to have happy feeling from the bottom of our heart. During the holiday season, ( although Ray was working in the new year's day ) we were re-watching the famous classic movie   " Gone with the wind " at night.  That movie is one of my all time favorite movies. We haven't seen it since more than 10 years ago, so suddenly I missed watching it and wanted to see it again. When I first time watched the movie " Gone with the wind " , I became crazy ...

Machida said he is going to Waseda graduate University to study sports science and wants to get a PHD degree to be a researcher for it . He sounded like he was already thinking about his future after retiring from his skating life in last season. My impression of him is very intelligent and often calmly analyzing things and is a very hard worker. He was secretly studying hard for this since last season including  during the...

It's like spring here !

I'm loving the weather here recently. The temperature here is around 70F to 79F during the day since this month, December. Like spring has already come up !  But I suppose it will be cold again in January. Last weekend, we were hanging around a sightseeing spot in Tucson where there were tourists. I needed to take some photos of us to send to my relatives in Japan for new year's greetings,  so took some photos there.   It was a very beautiful day !                                                          On the way home, we stopped at Trader Joe's ( import super market ) and when we went to the exit after finished shopping, we saw am...
