The soup include the water that was used for boiling vegitables.
You can say vice versa; the boiled vegitables are boiled with the soup.
Because of this way of cooking, the mineral included to the vegitables
came into the soup, and the boiled vegitables tastes a little salty
with the soup. So delicious!
Today, I bought a Macbook. This is because the PC that I have been using for about 4 years came to be slower.
Also, these days, I have many chances to use some applications which require high specification on PC.
I have been using Windows with PC for about 15 years, so I have used to the opperation. Thas makes me irritating with using Mac, because the intereface is so different from Windows
Of course, the key layout is mostly the same, but some functional keys, such as ALT, CTRL, ESC and so on, is layouted differently and there are some keys I have never used, like option.
Also, the applications I own are for WIndows. So I have to purchase another one for Mac. Fortunatelly, There are virtual environment for Mac that you can use Windows on it, called Bootcamp. So first of all, I set up the Bootcamp and installed Windows to this computer.
Even the install procedure seems to be difficult when I looked up on the web, it was very simple actually; First, make a partition for Windows on the HD. Second, install Windows OS. Third, install drivers in ordeer to activate the Mac devices on Windows. That's all.
Anyway, there are a few applications for Mac with me, so I'd like to use Windows on the Macbook for the present.
I was so impressed with this story, because there are many storied
told until now at the elephant park.
Anyway, it was too cold today, so I had to endure the cold winds
during the elephants' show. Of course, the contents of the show was
absolutely nice! Even I felt cold strong winds.
After that we went back to Tokyo, and this trip was over.
Visiting at the parks and playing with animals are very interesting,
if the weather were better situation, it should be more and more
enjoyable one!
During this travel, I'm planning to many places to enjoy animals and
the nature.
First of all, we went across the Tokyo bay, and went to the parking
area named "umi hotaru", this is the only parking area in Japan that
is floating on the sea. There we enjoyed the sea breeze, and the sea
around us for 360 degree.
Then, we went to "the mother farm". There are many animals like sheep,
goat, pig, duck and geese. Also there are many spring flowers
blooming, so beautiful!
Then, I went to "the Nokogiri mountain". There the mountain is famous
for the temple on the mountain, also very large statue of Buddha.
The scenary was so nice, we can see Yokohama beyond the Tokyo bay from
the top of the mountain. There is one interesting thing with it. This
is that the wall of the mountain is just right to the ground, 90
degree, also the wall was flat, very artificial. The reason why the
mountain is that , from Edo era, the mountain is famous for cutting a
stone for some buildings. Because people cut the stone frome the
mountain, the walk is artificially flat. The stone is used for the
Yokohama base, Yasukuni shrine, and Waseda university.
Then we drove a road full of flowers, named the flower line. But
actually, this year, there are very low temperature days, so the
flowers were not so many as we have expected.
And this travel continues to tomorrow...
First, I've think that the background doesn't work at all for working at other companies, but there are so many tasks in which you can utilize the knowledge of system, because in almost all the tasks we do, we use PC there, and many systems. And there you install new system for automating or achieve efficiency with that. And there you need the knowledge of system implemnting it.
Therefore, I think my job history was not bad, mostly favorable one these days.
I want to participate more and more times to this event.
Wooden table mutches the white wall so much. I want to coordinate this
room as my ideal room gradually by placing these kind of things.
Spring roll is one of my farorite foods. This dinner is so nice for me!
This is the first time for me to have the afternoon tea. It tastes
absolutely nice, especially the scone just baked was fantastic!
As this is the season with cherry blossoms blooming, so almost all the
dish included sakura; the scone included sakura flower, the ice cream
was on the sakura leaf, etc.
Also, the atmosphere was perfect, through the window, you can see
beautiful garden, and the three floored Japanese style tower was
there, unfortunately, it was too early to sea the cherry blossoms
blooming, the garden was beautiful enough to satisfy my heart.
There are many events related to cherry blossoms in Four Seasons
Hotel, such as "Sakura Viking".
I want to enjoy this season now and this time.
Houtou with a cup of miso soup made with le creuset.
Houtou is a traditional noodle, like udon, in Yamanashi. The structure
is very similar to udon, but a little harder than it.
And the miso soup includes various kind of vegetables.
It tasted so nice!
Actually, I like running as well as practicing the instrumental. I think there are common thing between these two.
Both of them require myself to continue doing it, and try many many times. Each case seems a little trial, but during continuing it, your skill becomes gradually better.
Now I'm wondering which to do tonight, run or practice. Which do you think I should do now?
Especially, findind a bug written by other is absolutely nervous. It start from understanding the specification, estimating the architecute, and then find bugs.
But reading codes written by other is helpful for developing your skill, through reading and understaning the code, you will find which is better way to write, and understandable one.
Even there are many things that you can get from debugging, still I dons like debugging.
These days, I've bought a half dozen of plain bagle. So I ate it with mozzarella cheeze and saut d mushroom. Absolutely nice!
These should be various recipe for bagle. I want to try more and find my favorite one as nice as the blueberry bagle with cream cheeze.
First of all, I bought a jogging ware, also I've entry a charity run, one of the event of my company.
Next weekend or later, I'd like to buy a jogging shoes, one that I already have is not for jogging, and it feels like the base so thin, so I want new one for actual jogging.
But I worry about one thing that if it turns cold again, I can continue or not. It depends on the strength of my mind.
A Japanese quote says "three cold days, then four warm days". It means that spring comes not straight, but becomming gradually warmer sometimes being cold.
Last week, it was so cold, but these days it is very warm. Spring is comming.
Actually I have been there sone times before, but today I bought some things for having a party.
We bought some large dishes that I never buy with my self, then returned to my home, then had a party with them. It was so fun! But today, we didn't buy somethings which are too impacted, the tiramisu 1.3kg, raw beef 5kg etc.
All of us were agreed to go to BBQ through buying many things at costoco.
I'm so looking forward to this event comming true.
It was absolutely delicious that the portion of each dishes were not large, but I was so satisfied with them.
Especially, the soup and apertif tastes excellent.
The apertif was consists of some raw fishes like trout, and there latatouille was also placed on the same plate.
And the soup was made with cauliflower and aspalagas, it seems so creamy, although it tastes so smooth, not fat taste.
Of cause, other dishes are as delicious as these two, but they were my favorite two.
I hope I can have dinner at here again some days.
There are three large regulatory for that, EU solvency II, BIS Basel II, and the regulatory by FSA, Japan.
It is very difficult to adapt and utilize operational risk quantization for a board. Because there are many barrieres. One is the resistants for collecting operational risks, because it takes additional administration to collect operational risks. The other is that it is quite difficult to persuade the board, because it is not clear that collecting operational risks and quantizing it works for the board's decision.
There were some hints for these difficulties in today's seminar. I hope I can feedback it to my work.
These days, I've ordered to do so boring task. It is just printing out a materials of past committees. But during the task, there are many typos and also there are personal informations which must be masked.
So I have to check every materials, then print them out. It seems to be so boring and simple, but i have to pay much attention to do this.
Actually, I have to do this task as much as three times of today's amount. I hope I won't be crazy with this task.
Now it is already March, and the ground hog day has passed, but I feel like mid of winter... Still far from spring.
In spring, there are hay fever with me, so I wonder which is better for me to be still cold or annoyed with hay fever.
I have donated my blood last July, and there were a campaign there that if it is the second time or later, I can get some novelty goods.
As I wrote, I've did it last year, and it is the second time in this office, so Ive got a tumbler.
I was just searching for one, so I was pleased with it, but it looks not good, actually. There was a character of Japan Red Cross. I wonder who is going to use this with this drawing...
The band was the one that is consists of alumni of Gakugei-daigaku fuzoku high school, one of the member invited me to the band.
There we played string symphony written by Britten, English composer.
The play today was the best one, I think, except for one mistook with me...
But in general, the play was so interesting, and we enjoyed it.
We are going to have another concert at October. I was already invited to play there. I'm going to practice hard for that.
Actually, it is a little hard to play at someone's wedding party because I can never mistake at the party. But once we could play good tunes, all of us becomes extremely happy.
I heard that the bride's mother is sick in bed just today, and she had so hard days to make the wedding party by herself.
Almost all the participants in the party was moved with the episode, also, her father wrote a letter to her, it also moved us.
I hope the two will be happy forever.
But I had a task that must be done until Monday morning. That is because I worked instead of going to the rehearsal.
Am I workaholic? How do you think of it?
It is very interesting to make movie, editing photoes, but just one thing I have to care is that it takes longer than I'm expected, it makes me sleep very late.
Today, I was planning for a travel in the end of this month. The destination is Chiba, so near from where I live, but there are so many things to do that I want.
It is hard to manage the things in only two days, but it is quite interesting!
I have been writing programs with various languages; c, c#, c++, perl, java, matlab, etc. Actually, the language vba is mostly like c#, because both of them are developed by Microsoft.
I started programming with vba after started to work. So I didn't know how the language is, the vocabulary and the grammer.
Now I studied almost all the basic functions of vba, simple calculation, standard in/out, and system call.
But there are many functions using excel worksheet functions with vba, such as making a table on the spreadsheet, and using complexed analysis, like solver or regression analysis.
I want to study more about vba with utilizing it for market risk.
It was covered with very soft snow, that I could hardly go straight with a snow board!
