Velcro
The lady sitting across from me on the train is wearing something I haven't seen in a long time; velcro shoes. I remember the first time I saw velcro shoes. I was in elementary school. It was probably September, as I was shopping for school clothes with my family. When I saw them in the shoe store, I begged my mom to buy them for me. My teacher often scolded me because I made noise during class fastening and unfastening them over and over again. I thought they were the coolest thing since sliced bread. Now, I wouldn't be caught dead wearing them. lol!Thank-you for reading my blog! If you like it, please copy the link below and share it with your friends!

PIG GRASS
It seems it is that time of year again. This past week or so I have been having a runny nose and have been sneezing a lot. I have allergies. I am ok during the Spring when most other people have allergies. It seems that I am allergic to ragweed. I think in Japanese, it is called ぶたくさ。Is it pig grass? ha ha ha. Have a fabulous day!

Money
One of my students yesterday showed me the most amazing thing. It was a 100 yen bill! That's right..not a coin, but a bill!
I remember when I first came to Japan, it was so hard to hear the store clerk tell me the amount in Japanese. However, I think Japanese money is easier to recognize than American money. The coins have big numbers on them showing the amount. Foreigners always get a kick out of the 5 and 50 yen coins because they have a hole in them.
Ok. Guess what time it is? Quiz time!

A Day Remembered
Today is the day of the terrible tragedy in NYC. I still remember it like it was yesterday. At that time I was living in Yokosuka and working in the Navy. I was driving to Yokosuka Base in the morning, when suddenly I started to get many messages on my phone. The messages were from my friends and just said things like, "Can you believe what happened? OMG!". At that time I didn't know what had happened, so I thought it was very strange. When I arrived at the base, the gate was closed, and there was a crowd of people gathered in front. There were many people with cameras like they were from the media. I still had no idea what had happened. Since the gate was closed, I couldn't drive my car onto the base. So, I had to just park and leave it on the side of the road. I was worried what might happen to my car, but I had no choice; I had to get to work. When I finally made it onto my ship I saw what had happened on TV. I couldn't believe my eyes. It was unbelievable.Thank-you for reading my blog!

How to...
One good way to practice your English is to try to explain how to do something simple in English. For example, how to brush your teeth:
First, squeeze toothpaste onto your toothbrush. Put the toothbrush in your mouth and move it back and forth across your teeth and gums for 2 minutes. Put water into a cup, then put the water into your mouth, but do not drink it. Swish the water back and forth between your teeth and then spit it into the sink. Rinse your tooth brush by running water over it. Repeat daily.

MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE
**WARNING: SPOILERS AHEAD**
Click here to see the original Mission Impossible.
Last night, I finally got around to seeing Mission Impossible. It was a very exciting movie. It was non-stop action that left me feeling tired at the end of the movie. The only part I thought was a little strange was the ending. There were only 15 minutes left before the bomb exploded, but Tom managed to climb up to the helicopter, fall down, climb back up again, beat up two guys, chase another helicopter, crash, fight, fall, and climb back up a cliff again....all in 15 minutes! It takes me longer than that to take a shower and brush my teeth in the morning! ha ha.
