Halloween

I wanna catch up things from last week.

Beth came to visit Portland last weekend.
Few weeks ago, I went to Newport to see her.
We are like in the long distance relationship. haha

Sunday afternoon, suddenly I, Beth and Jer decided to do carving a pumpkin.
Yes, Halloween is coming up.

We bought a big bottle of wine, cheese, crackers, and three pumpkins.
Chatting and carving with wine were so fun.



This pumpkin is not edible. Too bad!
It's different from Japanese Kabocha sqash.



We made it!
Mine is the one in the middle.
Look at this picture carefully.
Can you see Jer above me and Beth?
It's scary, isn't it?

After carving, we still kept drinking.
I had the three glass of wine which was too much for me.

I went crazy, and started to think about my shoes.



It looked like to have been spotlighted.
I was wondering why this shoes were here.
What is the meaning of the exsistence of this shoes?
Why we are together now?
Who am I?

My brain was like a universe.
Everything didn't make any sense.
But at the same time, I felt everything was so meaningful.

That night was intense.
It's because of Halloween?

Hearing from my friend

パワフルパワーことかずくんが電話をくれた。
今ツアー中でNYとのこと。
今晩何食べたとか、たわいもない話をしただけだけど、楽しかった！
あのゆるさ、なんとも言えない雰囲気がいいんだよね。

彼の歌かわいいからチェックしてみて。
天気がいい朝とか、寝付けないときとか曲によって自分でいろいろ聞き分けてる。

１１月はまだ未定、１２月は確実にポートランドに来るって。
ショウ楽しみだなぁ！


I got a call from Kaz a.k.a PWRFL Power in NY. (different Kaz from the last post.)
He is a musician and on tour right now.

We didn't talk anything spacial, just about what he ate today, things like that.
It was so cozy.
He is funny, talented, open, easygoing, and mysterious little bit.

I love his songs.
So cute.
PWRFL Power

He told me he will come to play in Portland next month hopefully and in December for sure.
Can't wait!

Miso

Today I had presentation in the class.

Americans are generally very good at presenting themself.

My classmates did a good job.

Meanwhile I didn't.

Sigh.

After the class, i went to the cafe on campus.

I ordered the today's special, miso soup.

I tasted it and I thought "I can make this better."

To each one's own.

That's just how it is.

Refresh!

３週間前にベスに会いにNewportに行ってきました。
久しぶりって言っても数週間ぶりなんだけど、ベスに会って海沿いのカフェで延々としゃべりたおした。
海、すごいきれいだった。

そのときあんまりいいことなかったんだけど、あんな広い海みたら嫌なこともどうでもよくなるね。
きれいに全部洗い流してきた。

あんなに果てしなく続く海見てたら、この世界全て作り物のような気がして
プラトンのイデアってこういうことかなって思った。


Three weeks ago, I came down to the coast, Newport.
It was so beautiful.
I and Beth was chatting forever at the cafe by coast.

It was good I refreshed myself.
No more stress!

The ocean view made me feel empty in a good way.
I thought about Plato's idea for the moment.

Schoooool

やばいよーーー



Theories of Communicationってクラス取ってるんだけど
それが超難しくて。
もうペーパーとリーディングとテストの嵐で。
こんなはずじゃなかった、っていうか、今学期は２つしかクラスとってないから
のんびりと最後の学期を楽しむはずだったのに！

すっごい内容はおもいろいんだけど、こんだけ課題があるようじゃ
楽しむ余地はないって。
もう一個のクラスもまぁまぁ忙しいんだよね。

あたし、大丈夫かな・・・・？

もしこれ落としたら卒業できないから、もう三ヶ月ポートランドだね。
まぁ、それも悪くないかな？



Here comes trouble!

I was supposed to be more laid-back....


Theories of Communication

This class is much harder than I expected.
The subject is so interesting, but.....
Paper paper paper... Reading reading reading.... Exam quiz exam quiz...
Too many things to do.
The other class is not so easy also.
I'm not sure if i can handle it, but i have to.
Otherwise, I can't graduate.

Wait a minute.
If I fail this class, I will extend my Portland life three more months.
That's kinda nice.
