Addiction to cell phone

A few years ago, there was much news about addiction to cell phone. TV said that people are addicted to cell phone and showed the evidence that some people could not stay the place which cell phone couldn’t be used. And TV said its not good.

But I think its normal that people are “addicted to cell phone”. We need to think about what sell phone is. Now cell phone is a must because it is the only tool for communication. We cannot communicate with others without cell phone. So we are not addicted to cell phone, but we just cannot ignore our friends.

What do I want my obituary to say?

I want my obituary to say that he accomplished something big and he was a great person. But to tell the truth, I wont do something like that. So I just want it to say that he did not accomplish a big thing, but he was a tolerant person, and he was kind to everyone. Also, he listened to others in old age.

I think humankind get more obstinate because we make our opinions clear as grow up. So I want to be a person who listens to others. I don’t want to be a grandfather who always speak to others and is disliked to be with.

Studying Abroad

              Ive been to Australia for almost 1 year to study English when I was 16. The exchange student life has changed my view on things.

              I went to a public high school there and I lived with host family. Meeting with those people who were from a lot different background from my Japanese friends or my family has changed my view. My view was from only Japan. But now, I feel that my view on things is from my original background and my exchange life.

What is my view about religion?

              To me, religion is a worth that everyone has. Even though there are some people who do not believe religion, I think they still stand on a place. I mean they have their own worth and they live following their own “religion”. So “religion” is a thing everyone has. we build up our own “religion” unconsciously as we grow up. Therefore we need it for deciding something.

What kind of people do I dislike?

I don’t like the people who do not accept other opinions and who think his/her opinion is the best. I cant help it. People make an idea standing on a point of view. For example, there is a person who is a teacher and has a family. In that case, his ideas come from two viewpoints: teacher and father. Its hard to consider from students’ viewpoint or children’s viewpoint. I don’t like the people who do not even realize this fact.

What does “love” mean to you?

To me, “love” is to be patient and to listen to my partner. Every one of us is somewhat different. there is no one who is the same as me. For example, there is no one who has the completely same opinion about everything. So sometimes we will not agree with our partner. Its natural. But at least we have to listen to our partner even if he/she has a different idea. We need to be tolerant to our partner and admit the idea. I think we need to listen to partner in order to be with him/her.

Bill? Buil? ビル!

I have a dog.

We call him "ビル".
But I dont know the spell.
Thats because my dad named him.
My dad owns a construction company.
So dad named "ビル" after "building".
Bill is the common spell, but if my dog's name is from "building", is his name gonna be "buil"?


Anyway, we love him so much!
He is so cute!
He behaves as if he is a "person".
When we are watching TV and if one of us leaves there for toilet or something, "ビル" sits on the sofa where he or she was sitting.
Then, "ビル" doesnt  move away even if we say "leave, ビル!".

He is a lazy "person"! ：D
