Today my daughter took day off from school due to tummy ache. The reason was obvious. It was too much sweets she ate last night. Yesterday was Valentine’s Day.

I made my homemade miso. It was my very first time. I always wanted to try it making, but I thought it would be difficult. Today I finally took a leap and tried it.

Yesterday and today for two nightｓ in a row, I dreamed about my dad. In yesterday’s dream, my dad has already passed away. I was informed by my family several days after his funeral.

These months, February and March, are the entrance exam season for certain graders in Japan. I experienced this season twice when entering to high school and university. Both two years were stressful years. I don’t want to experience these again any more. I grew up in a family who values the higher education. I feltContinue reading “Discovering 2/8/2018”
