Hikari

The place I come from.
The place I go back to.
The place I live.
The place I die.

Bye-bye.

My vacation is over.
The three weeks of my staying in San Francisco was crazy, but fantastic. I love this city more than ever.

Silence

That's what I fear and also enjoy.

My Aspiration for 2007

Every year, each member of my family decide own aspiration at the beginning of the year.
I think it is what everyone does in Japan and any other countries, but the weird part my family is to write the aspirations on the back of Daruma doll* that I have thought it is Japanese tradition for 20 years and came out to be only my family tradition.

This year, my aspiration is 「有言実行(yu-gen jikkou)」, which means "Do what you have said to do".
It sounds easy, but I know it is not. I am such a slacker and usually do not complete what I planned to do. Since I knew it is going to be such a tough year, I tasked this for myself. Let's see how much I can do.

*Daruma doll - Japanese wish doll.
