人生は海みたい

最近いろいろがあって人生は海みたいなものだっていうことにに気づいた。
一瞬上がったり下がったりしていて、一つづつの波に乗るしかないあるいは溺れ死ぬ。
人生と同じだと思います。人生の中にいろいろな状況に置かれています。一瞬いい状況もあるし、悪い状況もあるし。どんなに悪い状況でも自分の見方を変えれば、自分の人生の成り行きも変えられると思います。どんなに大きい波がきても乗れるようになります。
海もきれいだし、人生も美しいし、そこで人生の波に乗り、人生を満喫してください。

Kanpai!!

This weekend I had a chance to go to the Suntory beer and whisky factory in Kyoto with a few of my teachers and one of my roommates.
They show the process that they go through to make the beverages, and at the the end of the tour you get to drink!! It was a very "educational" experience. You get to learn the science behind beer and whiskey, and then you get to try the finished product.
It was a nice long day of fun and drinking and fun and drinking. :-)


This is where the storage room where they store the whiskey after it has gone through the whole process. The smell in this room was like heaven! lol

Fall is Beautiful

As fall is winding down, (I think) everyone is rushing to see the last of the colorful leaves. In Japan, fall leaf viewing is one of the big events in the fall. There are even special places where people can go to have a "special" viewing of the fall leaves near temples and places with a lot of nature. From where I live I have a beautiful view of the mountains behind my house and that fine with me. :)

I actually did go to Kiyomizu dera, a Buddhist temple in Kyoto, to have a special light up of view at night. It was crowded! Especially since it was a holiday.
I've been doing a lot of traveling especially to Kyoto so I have been able to enjoy from the train or just walking around places.
This is another good place in Kyoto :)

I'm Back!!

I know that it's been a while since I've posted anything but I'm back! Sometimes there are bumps along the journey and you just have to figure out how to handle things appropriately. During my break, I took a lot of time to reflect on a lot of things and realign myself back on my path. I feel refreshed and ready to take on the world again! I'm still hungry, and I'm still trying to devour that Japanese!! Look forward to more posts again.
