More than 30 years ago, some Japanese were abuducted by North Korean agent. It is confirmed that at least 17 people were abuducted and it is said more than a hundread missing people may be also one of victims.

A junior high school girl was kidnapped in my prefecture when I was a child. At that time, not only police officials but also many ordinaly people were looking for her hand in hand and I remember that a poster were put on everywhere.

5 abductees were allowed to return to Japan when former prime miniter visited North Korea before.

Japanese govenment's effort to release more abductees continued and it seemed that other abductees could be released but the dialogue ground to the halt when North Korea launched ballistic missiles and began nuclear tests. 

We bought a round-trip ticket, so we went to Sydney first and then flew to Perth which is a city in western Australia. 

I felt that great nature and urban life coexist in Perth. 

As soon as we got there, we were directly headed for the youth hostel where I reserved a room online before. The room was rather small and there was only a bunk bed, no air conditioner. 

I took a nap on the top of a bunk bed but it was so uncomfortablely hot that I thought I was about to get a heat stroke, also we were surprised when we found that our room was connected by a door to a neighboring room and there was no key in the door, so we were able to enter the next room where other guests stayed and vise versa.

At second youth hostel, we stayed only one night because there was also unconfortable. We stayed a big room which share with other guests  because it was only room available. There were 3 bunk beds and my friend and I slept in separate beds.

I started to itche all over my body so left the room silently at midnight in order not to wake the other guests. Or maybe it was the early morning. Then we entered a bath room and screamed when I saw my body in a mirror. I had many mosquetoes bites all over me. My friend and I waited until the morning, sitting on the chairs in the corridor.

Also when I went to a shared bathroom, we were stunned that the shower curtains were torn into shreds by crazy guests. While one was taking a shower, the other was watching the entrance to prevent others from entering the batchroom.

We took a stroll and spent relaxing time there.

We went on an overnight trip to an beautiful island named Rottnest island near Perth.

Ocean around that island was the most beatiful and crystal clear I've ever seen.

We rented the bicycle and rode it around the island enjoying the breathtaking scenary. But the sunshine was extremely strong that my friend got her arms burned.  We stopped at the side of the street and watered her arms to be cooled and covered with a towel.

At the midnight, we left a youthhostel and went on a walk at night. When we got a square, we were so stunned because there was full of Quokka which is living only in Western Australia. Quokka is well known as the happiest animal in the world becuase their face look like always smiling. 

There is a boy who did not like school and all subjects were understandable. He had a talent of the art, painting, but it was disregarded, even unnoticed.

Teachers and his parents were underestimated him and they told him that he has not made efforts. He was rebellious  and messing around and acting goofy.

His parent were told by the prinple that he would not be able to advance to the next grade.

His father sent him to a strict boarding school.

Teachers were more abusive than previous school's. He started feeling that he was faluire.

He closed the heart, does not smile, does not even speak to anyone, even to his family members.

One day, new art teacher joined the school, his teaching style was completely different from other teachers. It was creative, student-oriented, let students draw anything they want.

That teacher noticed soon that Sharrn's closed heart and when he see Sharrn's notebook, he noticed that he might be having dyslexic.

Sharrn was about to be sent to another school for children with developmental disabilities.

But that art teacher explained how he has a severe difficulities in understanding letters. asked the principle to allow him to be his tutor. By his creative way of teaching, Sharrn started having an interest in reading and writing and developed soon.

He started drawing again and was chosen as the best artwork at art festival and his work was on the cover of the textbook. On the last day of the school, Isharrn's parents was stunned and left speechless by the transformation. They thanked the teacher.

dyslexic---reading discorder.

After completed, leave them to dry for 2 days.

After they dried completely, pierse the ballon with a toothstick and take it out.

Cut the bottom of the ballon so it can stand firmly. Put it on the small LED flashlight.

It can be foled up and easily carried when we do not use.

It is like traditional Japanese version eco-friendly reusable bag or scarf.

A long time ago, when Japanese stil used to wear Kimono on daily basis. People used to use it as a bag. Depending on size, we can use it on behal

a type of traditional Japanese wrapping cloth. It can be used in multiple ways, for bundling or gift-wrapping all sorts of things – from lunch boxes or books, to watermelons and bottles of wine.

One day, she was invited to a wedding in NY by her younger sister. It was decided that she will go to NY for five weeks before the wedding party to help and organize her wedding.

As she can not communicate in English at all, she had a bad experience in NY. So she decided to enroll in 4 weeks English class secretly. Gradually she got to enjoy learning English at the class and classmates and her teacher became her friends.

A little ahead of schedule, her family came to NY as surprise, she tried to manage to attend English lesson but due to schedule conflict, and she decided to give up.

She was not able to take final English speech test even though classmates and teacher encouraged her to attend.

At the wedding party, they were invited by her relative knowing that she was attending English classes. Her husband was so surprised that she had friends in NY.

During the wedding party, she was told to give a short speech but her husband stood up instead, then said that she can not speak English. Then she asked him to let her speak and gave a touching and wonderful speech, she said that family is comfort space and should accept weakness in stead of making fun of and couple should be equal.

Her families were suprised that she was able to speak English also regret that they treated her with disrespect. 

In France, angry doctor and nurse confronted Macron.(faced off with Macron(直接対決した)). Mcron visited the union to discuss the bonus to healthcare workers, when he got out of the building, 2 angry doctor and nurse were waiting for him at the exit. They said "We are desparate". Macron stopped and started arguring with them. They insisted that what they demanded is a rise, not a bonus, also they told that they have been using long-expired surgical masks. For a majoy European country, this is not normal and shame.

I wondered how our PM would deal if he faced this situation, I think that he will not say anything. What would Trump do, he will just get mad and hurl in loud voices and go away.

Japan has been facing with super aging society with a low birth rate.

As couple years ago, New ministry, ciber secuirty was made, one old man was appointed the minister of the ministry of Ciber Security. As soon as he was appointed, he became famous in the world.

It was used to be worn on a daily basis long time ago, but nowadays Kimono is not everyday clothe anymore and we wear only for special occasions, formal occasions such as wedding or graduation ceremony and so on. I have worn Kimono twice in my life, one was at my graduation ceremony of university and another was at my wedding party. 

Kimono is quite expensive so renting Kimono is nowadays common. It is hard to put on Kimono by oneself. Many people especially young people can not put on Kimono by themselves. There is even school teaching how to put Kimonos.

When we wear Kimono, we get very tired, because many layers are worn. The belt for Kimono called Obi is tied very tightly. Unlike western chothe, Kimonos are made flat patterned

We wear undershirt and tie it with tie strings under Kimono. When we wear Kimono, we need to behave nicely or it comes loose quickly.

There is a casual Kimono for summer season which are called Yukata. Yukata is lighter than Kimono.

A bunch of people wear Yukata on summer festivals. We can not wear Yukata for formal occasions.

Yukata was used to be worn as sleepwear before.

If you stay in a Japanese style hotel called Ryokan, you can experience wearing a casual Kimono! It is prepared as sleepwear.

Kim Kardashian announced that she named her underwear line as Kimono and got backlash over it. Japanese got angry with her as it is disrespect for Japanese traditional clothe and our culture.

It’s chiefly made from silk or wool.

Casual kimonos are basically made from cotton.

Kimonos can be a form of art.

the combination of the pattern and the colour of the textile and obi sash

Depending on how you tie your obi and what color obi you pick, you can totally change how you look.
