THERE'S GOOD NEWS AND THEN THERE'S REALLY GOOD NEWS!

September 17, 2023
OMG! I just received word from an international film festival the I am BEST ACTRESS. Thank you WINNOWING! When we were shooting WINNOWING, I couldn't imagine this. In fact, I was afraid to watch the movie, because I was worried so much about my English, and had no confidence. OMG! OMG! I am so pleased to hear BEST ACTRESS. Suddenly I am looking forward to appearing in my THIRD film, OTOSOTU - On The Other Side of The Universe. I may have no confidence, but look at it! I did my best, and people agreed! OMG!

良いニュース、本当に良いニュースがあったのです!

ああ、神様!国際映画祭から最優秀女優賞を受賞したという連絡を受け取りました。 WINNOWING」様、ありがとうございます! WINNOWING』を撮影していた時には、こんなことは想像できませんでした。実は、私は自分の英語にとても不安があって自信がなかったのです。だから、この映画を見るのが怖かった。ああ、神様!ああ、神様!最優秀女優賞をいただけてとても嬉しいです。

突然ですが、3作目の映画『OTOSOTU - On The Other Side of The Universe』に出演することを楽しみにしています。自信ないかもしれないけど見てください!私は最善を尽くします。そして人々は、私の演技に同意して下さいました!ああ、神様!

 

LONG TIME NO POST, BUT TODAY, SOMETHING REALLY WORTH POSTING!

August 25, 2023
In August 2023, JET Progress productions finished filming the movie WINNOWING in which I debuted as the STAR! I played two roles, Draqual Casting Director Aika Abiko and auditioning actress Sakura Kai. As Sakura Kai, I read six roles from master author and screenwriter William Maltese! OMG!

Happy Birthday and INDEPENDENCE DAY

July 5, 2022
July 3 was my husband's birthday. And then July 4 is American's birthday. And everyone celebrates them with lots of fireworks. Except here in Honolulu, where there will be no fireworks in Waikiki and Honolulu. 

Yesterday, we celebrate Dan's birthday with his favorite dinner: Buddhist Sukiyaki (mushrooms instead of meat, can you believe?). Dan made his birthday cake by himself. Poor Dan! But I made the sukiyaki, ha! 

What do most people do for 4th of July? We practiced our lines for an upcoming ...

In July!

July 2, 2022
It's already July. Time is too early. In fact, time is moving at the same pace, even I was a child.
People know, but time goes by quickly! That is. Also, while saying that I don't have time, I can't use my time systematically.

Anyway, I spent time for my life today too.
My husband and I went to shopping. Wow! So many people in the store, because Independence Day is July 4th.
Local watermelon is good price. But we bought local mangos instead. Recently food cost is so high and also gas, too. I fini...

PhD

April 29, 2022

A doctor of philosophy degree wherein one knows more and more about less and less. The key is the word philosophy, meaning “love of wisdom,” whereas doctorate simply implies the highest degree (of). But seriously, what is wisdom? Or knowledge (shouldn’t all degreed individuals possess knowledge)? And where do information and data fit in?


In my experience, the lowest form of education involves the memorization of data. Having a storehouse of data at one’s fingertips used to be a major...

STATIC

April 28, 2022

TRUE, there’s more and more static appearing in every facet of life, be it relationships, culture, politics, finances and consumer information – you name it. But there’s also some good news about some of that static: namely the K. Simmons Production STATIC movie that premiered in 2021. A family friendly, science fiction/drama, Susan’s struggle to find balance in her life as she deals with her practical husband Donald and her father Will who’s showing symptoms of early onset Alzheime...

WHAT'S OUR LIFE?

March 29, 2022
What does "life" mean? The Cambridge English dictionary says, simple, that it is the period between birth and death, or the experience or state of being alive. For me, life is for myself; but sometimes, it is for others. Still, being alive is basically about myself. First I have to live myself in order to help others. 

Most of the time, in fact, I think about others. But that isn't life. Thinking is not doing. It is what one does with one's life that is life. I hav a husband. If I do well with...

CHICKEN VARIOUS!!

March 7, 2022
Long time know see you!
We are OK. Just suffering from Covid and war boredom..

I go for a walk every morning, often through the Alawai Park. There are 12 baby chickens and their mother.


They are so cute, I came home and told my husband about baby chicken family.

He told me a group of chickens is called a flock. A group of baby chicks is called a peep, clutch or brood. 

I never heard these before. I would like to flock to a brood and peep at them or clutch them. He, he!

WHERE HAVE ALL THE CUCUMBERS GONE? 胡瓜よ!どこへ行っちゃったの?

October 18, 2021
Our Japanese cucumbers are [surprise, surprise] still making wonderfully tasty cucumbers despite the plant looking sad, with drying leaves and browning of leaves. Only one small part of the vine has healthy green leaves. The first harvest was 5 excellent cucumbers [yum] which we used for salads and chikuwa. The second harvest was 5 more though it took almost a month to revive and produce. This is the third harvest, and I've found 3 flowers with baby cucumbers though it's taken a month. 

When I...
