cleanup

forward all away I would like to thank Lothar and Regina for her moving letter. Now I have Dad, Isa and Flo (and the heath, oh, you my homeland) hanging in my office and can watch them forever.

And all other people who have written me and those I forgot to reply, even a very big thank you. I am really, if you summon a few minutes for me and what I write, send, or just me thinking ^ ^ I think you too, it's more than you think ^ ^ And only because of you, I'll be back * gg * And I'm happy again!

Oh, and this Text has absolutely nothing to do with cleaning up with the Japanese. That was just my today's sports unit ^ ^

Well, now to the news.

Good people,

I do not know why I did not recently come more often to write reports. Maybe I was just very dedicated to laziness, but I actually do not much less than last semester. So, it's really my general laziness? Or do I have to say maybe just nothing? Perhaps I had been used for so much of my life here, settled, that all that so in my Life happens here, not as newsworthy appears. It is meant for you very newsworthy.

If I had Internet at home, would be something quite simple. For dinner I have always been very much time, mostly. Except when I go out with my fellow students in the evening or go to a friend's birthday. I have now found a new hobby. Watch videos. This is very cheap, if you have it done because at last, to get a Ausweiß. One needs here, namely a second person can call you if we can not be obtained yourself (and has not brought back the video). A more complicated procedure if you have mastered the subject not quite Japanese. But thanks to participation of my dear friend, I got the Surugi Ausweiß after all. And now I can when I want to borrow videos. And a video costs only 300yen, which is slightly less than 2 €. And it's not just the fee for a day, no, a whole week you are allowed to keep the videos! If that is not favorable!

Unfortunately, the selection is not just remarkable, but it does have something that we might like. And above all I like at the moment Grey's Anatomy and The 4400, the series I watch that is now, if I find time to do so in the evening when I am alone at home and do nothing else did. And I think I am addicted to Mr. Dreamy. I think I'll still Doctors in America. Physics is always just for nerds. * Gg *

Speaking of physics, of which I have not so much at the moment. Okay, I go to three physics courses and must listen to me almost every week a lecture (and soon also hold one of the I'm still not the subject), but apart from physics to me is just rather be left alone. In any case, here in Japan. I have so so slow to think about my next steps when I'm back in good old Germany. And there is at the Forge as the first advanced course II, fairly immediately when I'm back. I'm curious even know if it all goes the way I had imagined.

And, by the way, I will then also need a place where I can live. My wish would be to pull together with a dear friend, but it has to consider yet what course I can understand totally.

My real desire situations can unfortunately not be fulfilled, because the third person would be involved in it, has been ne apartment where she moved in recently. But maybe you can start with what new returnees. Well folks, I know I can sometimes be very challenging, but I know that you can tell me all suffer, at least (it would otherwise read this journal?), That is, someone among you who wants to move in with me? I can cook! Video and evenings are always very funny to me, and I can cook!

I'm really curious to see where I'm going to live next year. Hopefully more than a year, a year is too short for an apartment. If you have settled down, you have to take off again. The year in Clausewitz avenue was much too short. When will I have the next time a red room? I want in my next week in any case at least have a red wall. And a black door. Or a door that I can use as a wall. I like to use other things that are not intended as a bulletin board, as a notice board. As my wall in my apartment. What you could see if I could do it, the 40 seconds long video of high load. But this is not so, and I think I'll have to do it again. The video. But for that I must again until my apartment clean (Believe it or not, instead of cleaning up, I have written a call. What Freud would say to that? Do I have a phone Trauma? Or I am overwhelmed by thought, or are my headaches blame ? ne I need aspirin.)

And while we're on weather are, let me say, this year's rainy season is pretty early. In any case, according to my teacher. And if this is the rainy season, I find it not so bad. A day and pouring rain the next day is bright again hot. Only the sultry I find not so great. But since you are always most of the day indoors rather endure, is not so bad. Because inside there is almost always air conditioning. Unfortunately not in my office. (Or it does not work correctly. Or Japanese do not know how to use an air conditioner, because actually it may, the window will not be on when the air conditioner is on, right? But since when have Japanese idea of isolation and controlled heating / cooling of buildings and rooms?)

My body has to do quite nicely with the climate at the moment. I mean, I like it so warm. But too warm sometimes really stressful. And then more of this alternation of refrigerated space in the normal heated air outside. No wonder I had this week and a cough wehtuenden neck and still have a little bit. When I next week, despite medicine, which I bought (yes, all alone. But was probably always the only way that healing vegetable. This is the Japanese love namely. I'll just prefer to tough chemistry ^ ^ But as long as it's not homeopathic, I take everything if it only helps.), is not gone (or at least it looks that in the near future does not go away), do I have probably yet to see a doctor. But until then, we now hope all times that it is better to Monday again, and I (do because it hurt because that is) no more fear in front of swallowing need. And

for training as a cough is not too great. Speaking of training (ingenious reconciliation, * not * gg), as has recently happened quite a lot, maybe not. In any case, we are the new winner in a rather large tournament in our ranks. Well, after almost all the boys are kicked out in the first round, Saori (now Ninensei, we would say third term) the title fought hard for women. And, oh man that was exciting. As much as I have with the people not to cheer, as I have done in this tournament.

But first put a brief statement. So, was here two weeks ago near Matsuyama a great kendo tournament. This time no teams, but each individually. Actually, I had my first this Sunday Kyu can do, but because everything was kind of short notice, and anyway, and anyway, I'll do the now until July (the hottest time of the year, well thank you ^ ^). So I am with the tournament. And for that I had to get up pretty early and had only time for a banana milkshake, nothing solid. And because it was Sunday, the baker was also facing not. And time for the next Combini (for 24 hours stores) I also did not have. Therefore hoped that in the vicinity of the sports hall there is a Combini are (of course nil). In the end I was in any event on this day, during the day, only liquid food (and also alcohol-free) diet. Children, makes for not the home. Is not that great. But I just could not get away from the hall because the tournament was so exciting after all. And then Saori was always the next round, and even the next round. And then she was in the semi-final and the semi-final was the most exciting fight in this tournament. Once she was suddenly on his back and did not move for a short time, but then jumped back on their feet as if nothing had, and win in short supply and is in the final. And then she was suddenly the best of all. A fantastic tournament. A great fighter.

Whether there be something in Germany do? Or There is that? What's really great for tournaments in Germany in terms of Kendo? I would like to see one. I know so far only the Badische championships. And just can not compared to what I've seen anstinken. Sorry, but Germany is, in terms of Kendo, simple yet very far. I think, anyway.

And after cleaning up, there was a spontaneous dinner party. Even Omori-sensei was there and has mitgefeiert properly. was (And at last I could eat something ^ ^)

A really nice day, the one of the best I have experienced here so far. Even if I make my test then but could not. But the next opportunity waiting for me, and I must be solved before even before my foot problem, because if I can ever solve. I have a feeling I'm not there more easily. Where I am stuck, however, is in free fighting. I think, anyway. Although I still struggle too little in a training session.

Enough of Kendo, what else is new? I think, to cancel the Kyoto report and I will show you just a selection of photos. With this decision, I will certainly lose a few good memories, but I took so many photos to get just as a reminder.

Oh man, I see again how late it is. And I wanted but still a bit Learn more today. Next week Friday is in fact the first Kanjitest, and actually I'm not prepared. I mean, I'm learning already, but this stupid kanji are so many and they look all the same, and I have to also learn the vocabulary related to it, and it all takes so much time. And I'm still not sure if my method is so good to learn kanji. (Maybe they would be better if I did not hear any music or news here.)

hear But Speaking of music and message, I'll do that is quite a bit lately. Had I said that I have made an Ipod Nano? I think. So, this Ipod Nano is just super. Not only do I now (for now) all can take my music with me, no, I can also still the evening news from the Internet download and then while I'm learning kanji, for example, hear and see above all! Podcast called this function and I love it. You can about every possible topic called podcast (sometimes video, sometimes just sound) to download and then play with the iPod, wherever and whenever you want. So I am now seeing every day the evening news to stay informed. I wanted anyway always see every day at least once the news. But for that I had in the seminary as a regular time in the TV room. And such a strict time set routine has such a student's life simply no place. Today you have to be flexible, and so a podcast is super flexible.

the way, a question for you Red among you, what's going on now with the SPD? Somehow I have a feeling it's a bit directionless. (And this impression probably comes from the other podcast that I subscribed to the political situation presents a very satirical ^ ^ Very funny and very true sometimes.) And if there were elections today, I did not know who I should choose.

And why did I actually always felt that elections always somewhere, and tell the politicians will always more than . Act Somewhere is always campaigning, right? Ruled the government at the moment? The coalition gets really baked what? And I'm not talking about cakes.

the way, I would like to bake again, but for lack of a furnace, am not capable. But the new German teacher Julia at the Matsuyama University has one, now it has to me just to bake cakes invite * *

gg So, I have a headache, hunger, and must go through the vocabulary. I promise to improve myself with the reports, honest.

And Mom, on Mother's Day I was thinking about you all the time! That with the calls we have been resolved * gg *

So, until next time, that hopefully will not be long in coming. Maybe I should hold the Friday evening for the weekly report is free. Hmm, not a bad idea. I hope I can hold on.

So, does it better, and if you would make, then you really must go shiny * gg * I think of you, almost always. ^ ^

How To Treat Broken Hair In Your Fringe

Kyoto Japanese report, Or: If I ever come to this?

Before I finally got to the (hopefully long-awaited) Kyoto report, come a few more news from the land of the sun:

next week on the weekend I might do my 1.Kyuprüfung!

For those who now have a question mark in front of the eyes, that has to do with the sticks, that I suggest other people forever. Well, hidden in a small Janina böhöse page! Muahahahahahaha ha! But so far I have (other than bruises times) still no hurt, only myself Just think of my first broken bone in my life where I had to thank the good Kendo. And then I did not even have a suit of armor! But now I have one, and now I do not own me more hurt, do it now the other. And next week I say a test is to me or something to do other harm.

I'm pretty nervous, anyway. I have all this experience that is only recently, and I'm actually not really prepared for it. And actually I'm still not good enough for that! I still have problems with the foot (ie not now, does it hurt, but that I set it wrong) and no matter what I do, this stupid Macke does not go away. Anyone tips?

because somehow I feel that before I will not go, I 1th Kyu did not deserve. After all, I can then have one year 1st Dan make. And 1 Dan is in Germany more than in Japan. Somehow I have a little feeling, I cheaters, even if Bernd tells me to take the exam.

Well, let's see, maybe I'll fall through so well.

Next news, I have just donated. And I hereby invite you all to do the same, and if there are only five euros! Especially for Burma (or Myanmar, as indeed is now new)!

I am shocked and saddened over again about the conditions in this country, when I put the news (evening news, thanks Ipod Nano ^ ^) see. Perhaps because it is closer to me at the moment, as for you. Perhaps because a friend of mine comes from neighboring Thailand. But (if it has to be because it deserves, so named ...) mainly because this damn government does almost nothing, or too little and too late! Wow, I get very angry when I think about it! I must confess

that I did not have previously, that this country exists at all, but maybe we should just all the more reason to think these days the people there who were in charge of so much left in the lurch. So, spend, and if there are only five euros. € anyone can spare five of us, even poor students!

So now I have to calm down again. Next topic, I shot a little video I'll post on YouTube. Times so that you can see how I live Sun I must still prepare something, but when I uploaded it, then I say, of course, know and the link also. Maybe even at the end of this post. So, either you read to the end, or scroll down and look after ^ ^

But as it stands, this is the end. And I'm not already had time to talk about Kyoto. It was far my most brilliant trip, somehow. In any case, was it is quite an adventure. Small Janice alone in the big wide world. And in summer I will even make a duplicate. So, can not get back to Kyoto (although I will still go there as well), no, I want to Kyushu so again, and the summer, somehow doing so. Hokkaido is too far away, I think. Or I drive it again for a few days after Tokyo. Somehow his Tokyo so, or not?

Okay, the video can be a bit delayed. It is a full 40 seconds too long and therefore I must first cut in two, but none of my programs can do that Well, its something that can have you rejoice, is not it?

way, I've become now 24 years old. But only on paper, inside I'm probably just arrived at 21. Which is fine, I think it might be worse, 12 or so. And, sometimes I behave like 12th so how ..

(because I hear a roar of approval?)

But that's still what you see, here are a few photos. Without comment.

And goodbye!

Sleep Apnea Machine Airplane

I'm happy

I can not describe it. Now, at this moment, I'm just happy.

It's not all the time so, no, of course not. There are days when I wish that they go by simply (and worse, but they are thankfully very rare). And most days are just every day life, which is not just bad. (Perhaps this is even the best days, because you might is not happy, but at least satisfied with his life (I hope so for you).)

But on a day like today, when I see what I am living a wonderful life. It is not all peace, joy sunshine, but most of it. I have a family I love everything about it! I am enjoying my student life that is so far the best time of my life. Perhaps because it is the first time in my life that I live on her own. I'm still single (and sometimes I think yes, that is for ever shall remain * gg * yes, yes, I know I still have time. Do not worry, I will not forget, you always tell me again * gg *), but is actually the not so bad. Then I heard at least the bed all alone (I love my bed) and I must not hold the whole order of time in my room. I do a lot of things I want to make it easy and not because I have to. Kendo for example. Or simply go to a concert times. I am living this year in this wonderful country, a fact that I had a year ago (although I already had the confirmation) is not believed. I have so many friends here and in Germany I organize every year for my birthday a medium sized party needs to fit all ^ ^ And even if there always are things that could be better (my Japanese * for example gg *), I am actually pretty happy with my life. It could have been much worse.

I have just taken a walk, simply because I would feel like it. And I'm so glad I did it. Because I have discovered a kendo shop and drink a delicious cafe au lait, while I thoroughly enjoyed the mad genius podcast function of my new iPod Nanos. (The fact I've done, as it were, Vorgeburtstagsgeschenk ^ ^) I was just hours and a half times more on the way, enjoyed the day, and found a few new pages in Matsuyama and met. I hope I can still do something even if I worked somewhere, sometime. For just what is it the true joy of life, or not? Just enjoy life times.

So, there are still a couple of trip reports, Hiroshima and Kyoto. I'm not sure how I should write that, especially since quite a while has passed since then. Or should I just show you pictures? Oh, I just try to remember as best as I can.

Here comes Hiroshima:

As you may remember, I was the weekend before my Hiroshima trip quite sick, had me smooth sustained a juicy cold was (certainly the worst cold that I have so far had, but do not worry, I've got over ^ ^). And when I think about it, maybe it was going to not be a good idea on Monday still on the Kendo training (but that was made, my Kendo zeal, this sneaky) ^ ^, but I was there, and then I was with the other Kendoka at the Uniabschlussfeier to adopt our sempai. I had not really before, because I am the same day, still had to Hiroshima (the hostel was eventually posted), but in the end it was a very good idea. Thus, a Japanese graduation ceremony may be missed that is not when one is only a year in Japan. That's a pretty big deal here. Since then fly sometimes even in Japanese the air ^ ^ And everywhere run these beautiful kimonos (this particular one wears somehow only the closing ceremony, a combination of Dogi and Hakama, even for women! oh, so beautiful Unfortunately, I have no pictures of it, why should not I? must go to Mark to ask if he has what ^ ^ around), even some men who have to, but this is rather a rare sight (really bad). And I was in the middle of the crowd and had no idea of anything, but I still congratulated ^ ^

And then I had to hurry, I wanted to catch a ferry. And how small Janice comes to the port, the good 8 km (or so) blurts was? With the bike course. Pretty stupid idea if you ask me, after all, she was quite ill. But at least they had managed in 45 minutes, and even then had to spend a little time. On the ferry, they could be God rest you something.

(At the end of the trip is but a train from the port went home, but then had the next day the bike to get from the port. Well, was just been a stupid idea, especially in my state * gg *)

In Hiroshima, I was not alone. A friend and a friend of my friend I met in Hiroshima and together we have spent two and a half days. Or the first day, two people with the process with us to the island of Miyajima howsoever caused.

If you Miyajima says nothing, it does not matter. All these Japanese names, I could not even remember. And so I tell you now that is what is special about this island. Miyajima is in fact a God, or better said, Kami, like the gods are mentioned here. And because one of gods running around not really so should be allowed to enter a couple of years the island has not at all (or maybe just the Schintopriester and monks, or so, no idea). And so is the corresponding shrine built even on the island, but most of the island, in the mud, so to speak (if containing low tide). And SO is the gate of the shrine (which is at each shrine is, we recognize the fact) right in the water (high tide) or halt in the mud (at low tide). Pretty cool sight, and rather famous, supposedly the most photographed attraction in Japan. See for yourself:

not it beautiful? I will still times to Miyajima. I hope it works out. ^ ^

There are of course not only this gate on the island, but also a few temples and the hall of a thousand tatami mats (here a name for it, how big the hall is a thousand tatami mats wait, not that there really are any), the old wooden structure is no longer understand. Say, no one on earth has a clue how to build something. Really none, forgotten knowledge, so to speak. Kinda sad.

And since you can enter the island, has of course a small town with souvenir shops and expensive restaurants and guesthouses formed. And if you do not want to spend a lot of money, then you should not miss the last ferry by five clock ^ ^

The next day was Hiroshima turn. We have of course the Peace Memorial Museum and visited us the atom-Dom viewed (or vice versa, until the cathedral, then the museum), and then we were very tasty Italian food, and then among others in an art museum (because I noticed how interesting it is to look at museums, which I then in Kyoto have made. This has been a good idea ^ ^ museums are really great, you should go once in a ^ ^). By the way I've found in this museum (or more precisely, in the museum shop) a postcard with Freiburg motif (painted). Was kind of funny ^ ^ Have they bought, of course.

And the next day before we had to drive back home, we've also been to an art museum, which just showed a very modern exhibition. And if you go to the, we also know where bin Laden resides precisely: in Japan. Besides, he speaks perfect Japanese. Where did he have learned? And I hope so, that one soon used everywhere in the world that a barrier strip that tells you that everything is in order. You feel the same but better. (I would have made it like a photo of it, or better yet something like this taken ...^^)

And I have eaten far too much in Hiroshima, but that was all so delicious!

Fairly ready, and still pretty cold, I came back in Matsuyama.

Hiroshima must have really seen times (especially halt because of the atom's Cathedral and the Peace Memorial Museum) (Hiroshima and Miyajima anyway !!!), but also has its own unique atmosphere. It occurred to me that has held until now that Hiroshima does not feel Japanese. Sure, there are running around everywhere and you see all these Japanese comic character, behind which it is supposed to be a highly significant sense, but I found that I had in another city can be anywhere in the world. Perhaps because Hiroshima is so new and everything old, everything was destroyed by the traditional nuclear bomb. I mean not at all negative, it was just a feeling.

So that was Hiroshima, very nice place, really. Oh, and the castle (a reconstruction, rather disappointing, as the Osaka Castle, but more in the next report, perhaps) we were.

In Hiroshima, I have not really made a lot of pictures, so here are just two:

The day after I home (where I had to get my bike from the port, in the morning, early, very early, cold and still is) a kind of friendship tournament was here in Matsuyama between some Kendo Club. Because I was still sick so, I have not been through (Or can not participate), but only watched. Actually, I might have to be sad about it, but I was not at all. Actually, I was glad that I did not participate, "had" because I like (yet) a kendo tournament. I still have not found the inner fighting spirit for it. Actually, I'm not very interested in Winning, I lack the will still make the point. I do not know my attitude is certainly not in the sense of Kendo, but if it does not "fun" then I wait rather that this is all over, and if that means that the other wins. And if I know that the other is better than me, and me Men on first strikes, why should I still take time? If I know I have absolutely no chance, then why try? Why not add a bit of practice on until you get a chance? Just to get experience in the competition? No thanks. If I lose and win all the time not even a flower pot, that's pretty devastating for some time, and perhaps even a negative effect on my Kendo.

And now I can dissect all Kendo fanatics and Grand Master in the air, because that does not determine the meaning of Kendo is thought.

set Kendo actually make "fun"? But if there is no fun does, then I would not do it. And mostly it's fun in some way. Sometimes it does so * gg * hurt, but I'm inclined masochistic anyway, I've found * ggg *

So, that was then the last week of March this year. Next, then comes the Kyoto trip, and then after that has already begun the university again. And since that is already happening a lot, buy a paper chase for example, or three times a karaoke in a week, or another interesting museum, and several parties with the Kendoka (and for had I even a white T-shirt. Actually, I would like to buy a white blouse need, but that is my only occurred when I ran out of money, and the white shirt has done it in the end.) Kanjiunterricht together with a dear friend (when I'm with her I would never have classes together), Preparations for my birthday party, dinner with friends, Physics lectures again in Japanese (in understanding what time is again quite an obstacle) and the purchase of an Ipod Nano (3rd generation). Oh, and a bottle of wine has also played a role, and a night in which I slept only three hours and not even good. (And why would not go away then get up when I said he should go * gg * But do not worry, I was like. He did not, he has a girlfriend. ... .. Uh, okay, so far as to * gg * What you must now think of only me and why I mention this to you? Well, I'm predisposed not only masochistic, exhibitionistic, but also (and the word I can not write again oo).) And did I mention the chocolate I've forgotten the time? Now she is at my home and wants to be eaten, but I will eat healthy again! Oh, what must be a hard fate, I only suffer.

is now really call it a day, now it has become quite dark and I'm extremely hungry, and tomorrow morning's workout, where I really want to go, Kendo, of course. Kendo is the way, in the morning quite pleasant, I must say. Whether we get the times in Denzlingen go? May indeed be only an hour quietly, just like that, so to speak, as a start to the day.

Okay, makes it good, you really love, until next time

your Janina, by the way, comes in just under four months again!
