Hi, all!
Having Turkey with your folks???
Asian countries don't have this Thanks Giving Day, but Singapore is having holiday today, so called "Hari Raya".
It's Islamic holiday, and the celebration for their haji.
Family getting together and eat big dishes.
Gathering, talking, having good time with family is always nice.
I hope you are spending some good time with your folks.
Especially, Ivan!
This day is more special when we know that it's also your Birthday!
Happy Birthday to you!!!!
Please email me!!!! I don't think I have your latest email address!
For me, I am going home for this New Year's.
Looking forward to see all my family!!!

Opinion
I think it's hard to find right person and right timing to say opinions.
言い方にもよるのかもしれないけれど。。。
今日はね、会社で一番可愛い子とお話してたの。
私、可愛い女の子って好きだから。（笑）
彼女は花は好きじゃないって言うの。
花は死んじゃうからって。
造花のほうが好きって。
彼女のお家の夕ご飯は毎日出前（Catering)なんだって。
日本の出前のイメージではなく、月決めされた給食の夕ご飯版みたい。
ご両親が共働きらしいけれど、それでもね。。。
なんだかショックだった。。。
可愛くて、新人なのに仕事もできるのに、、、
こんな感性になってしまうような環境だったんだな。。。って。
日本人で花が好きじゃないなんて言う人、聞いたことない。
短い命でも大切にしたい、できることをしてあげられる責任感がある。
食べ物は人間を創り上げる一番大事なものなのに。。。
そんなことお構いなしみたい。
それよりも、味がイマイチなのよね。。。って言うの。
私が母であれば、家族が口にするもの、選びたい。
そして、できるだけ手料理にしたい。
もちろん、毎日凝ったものなんてできないと思うけれど、
決してケータリングなんてしない！
私は台所での家族の想い出がいっぱい。
ご飯は食べるだけじゃなくって、一緒に作ったりすることもとっても大事だと思う。
やっぱり、シンガポールで豊かな感性は育たないんだな。。。と再度実感。
ここにきて良かったのは、自分の望むもの、望まないものが明確になったこと。
そんないろんな想いを口にするのは、
相手とタイミングを選びます。。。
今、私の部屋にはシクラメンが咲いています。
冬、クリスマスの時期にたくさん店頭に並びますね。
シンガポールは年じゅう夏なので、これを見かけたとき、珍しくて買ってしまいました。
中学生の頃、環境整備委員で教室に飾って大切に育てていたシクラメンの花だけ全部切られてしまっていたことがあります。
あの時のショックは、自分でも信じられないくらいの衝撃でした。
生きているものをあっさり切り裂くことのできる人がこの世にいるんだ、、、と。
今年は、妊娠ブームです。
事あるごとに、命の大切さを認識させられます。
私は、妊婦ではないけれど、よく妊婦に間違われます！！
子供はいないけれど、命を授かれるのであれば、感性豊かな子に育つようにしたいなぁ。。。と心の底から今日は思いました。

Something about Thailand and Niigata, Japan
I am happy that I have some good regular readers from Thailand and Niigata, Japan for my blog:)
This Saturday, I was invited for the soccer game, Albirex Niigata VS TTM Samut Sakhon (Thailand).
It was to decide the 3rd place in Singapore league.
I am sure not many people knew that Albirex have a team in Singapore!
It is supposed to be farm team for Albirex in Japan, but not many players have been to transferred to the team in Japan unfortunately...
Anyway, for the game on Saturday, since I am from Niigata, I sure brought orange fan to cheer them up!!
I was sitting in yellow Thailand cheering party side(because it was close to the goal which Albirex could attack), where their drum was booming very loud.
In the 1st half, TTM Samut Sakhon got the first goal.
I admit that it was beautiful job that how they got it!
The ball was completely under their control.
It was obvious that Albirex had so much less chance to kick the ball...
My friends and I decided to leave after the 1st half.
It was that hard to stay there to see the fact Albirex was having difficulties.
Well, just checked the game result and now I know the game was over with 1:1!!!
And got into PK, TTM got 1 goal and the game ended with their victory.
It was very obvious that they had more passion for winning and I am glad they could achieve it!!

I believe most of my friends are still enjoying Autumn.
Halloween was one of major event when I was college student.
This year, I enjoyed some of Halloween riddles.
I will share few here with you!

2. What would skeletons say, when they eat?
The main street in downtown Singapore is already ready for Christmas!
Every year hey spend sooo much money on decorating with different illumination.
It's too early!!! It's not even cold yet! (....well ever gets cold here???)
Oh, well it made me wanting to decorate little something of winter :)
