Home party

 2008-06-03
My acquaintance- Moccol, he is an Indian guy who lived at the first floor in the same apartment, invited me to his home party. He and his son was planning to show us a Japanese animation DVD named "Castle in The Sky ".

That was my first experience to receive an invitation to the home party from non-Japanese.

The invited guests were,
・Italian guy
・Venezuelan lady
・2 children (Moccol's son's friends).
・Japanese (Me)

同じアパートの1階に住むインド人(モッコルさん)が "天空の城ラピュタ" の上映会をやるからと、ホームパーティに私を招待してくれた。海外の方からのホームパーティへのお誘いは初めての経験でした。招待客はイタリア人(男)、ベネズエラ人(女)モッコルさんの息子の友達2人、で、日本人(私)。

モニュメント



The Dinner was cocked all by himself. As might had been expected, His curry was especially excellent! The party was progressed in a sociable atmosphere............ but......
As time went by, they started discussing about world affairs, politics, Middle East affairs.. and so on... then they ( commonly Moccol and Venezuelan lady) became quite excited. They finally started quarreling.... Damn it!!! F**k!!!

Bad wards were flying one after another... I was frozen up.... (;'Д`)........

Oh,,,,, how uncomfortable atmosphere..... I couldn't help praying that

Do not ask me such a difficult topic please please please!!!!!!!  (;'Д`)人

As you know, my English level is not as so enough as to discuss politics. But suddenly Moccol asked me whether the attack on Iraq was right or not. All I could do reply that War is not correct....

I had butterflies in my stomach... many butterflies must have been flying in my stomach... Suddenly the Italian guy rolled down from his chair with sound of something broken when I got nervous.

Ohhh...... you surprised me! what happened next!!
He was so big guy that his chair was broken by his weight. I was bewildered by the unexpected. I didn't know what to do, so I could only drink some red wine.

East Jefferson st3


Red wine made me get drunk and my head spin. My head was spinning with ending theme of Castle in the Sky. I didn't remember about afterwards, but I seemed to be able to back to my room correctly this time.

さすがインド人のモッコルさん、彼のカレーは特に素晴らしい。パーティは和やかに進んだ。しかし、モッコルさんとベネズエラの人が世界情勢やら政治など難しい議論をしはじめ、ついには口論にまで発展しちゃった。なんか、よろしくない単語が次々と飛び交う。インド対ベネズエラ、両者一歩も譲らない。

うわ〜 気まずい...。 固まる日本代表...。

頼むから私に難しい話を振らないでくれ!どうか!!!

と祈らずにはいられなかった。しかし願いも空しく、イラク攻撃の是非について突然問われた。 せ、せ、せんそうは よ、良くないよ。と答えるのが精一杯だった。日本代表に緊張が走る。

ドギマギしていたら、いきなりイタリア代表が破壊音と共に椅子から転げ落ちた。

ヒイィ!今度は何ですかねっ!?

イタリア代表はものすごく大きな人だったので、彼の重みに耐えかねて、椅子が突然ぶっ壊れたのだ。アズーリの奇襲に隙をつかれた日本代表。(;'Д`).......。

予想外の出来事に私は自分を完全に見失い、ワインを飲む事ぐらいしかできなかった。
次第に日本代表は酔っぱらっていった....。目が回る....。ラピュタのエンディングテーマと共に回っている。(地球〜は回る。の歌詞と共に。)後の事はよく覚えていないが、前回のように部屋を間違う事無く、今回は無事帰還できたようだ。

Nomikai until midnight in USA

 2008-03-08
"My blood consists of red wine."
A certain Japanese actress said such a thing before.

My blood also consists of alcohol probably.
It may be not only wine but also beer, shochu and Japanese sake.
Because I love drinking alcohol! hehehe.....

When I worked at the hospital I used to have many nomikai parties with my friends until midnight. Of course, I enjoyed it in the US, too.
Sometimes it continued until early morning. It was really really fun!


I was invited at a home party by my friend. At that time I was home alone, so the member was my friend, her husband and me.

They also love alcohol very much anyway.

As you expect, it kept going until midnight.

I got drunk very much. I felt so happy by a great amount of alcohol.
I tried to go back to my room but......

I mistook my room! hahaha!

I seemed to try to open the door of someone unknown resident's room.
No wonder my room's key didn't fit.

Thanks Ma-chan! I enjoyed those nomikai parties very much. I wish I could have it with you all again. Of course, until early morning, right?

Cooking.. oh, cooking.. It is a great trouble for me how should I plan for every dishes.
I had never cooked for myself squarely, although I used to live by myself about 2 or 3 years. Because my job was hard work and the shift time was very irregular. (attributing my laziness)

Besides, American foods were a little bit strange. Extra large size milk, Low fat.. Low carb, despite the fact it was abundant. Colorful snacks and cakes... Cinnamon flavored TOFU??? What is this? How taste is it? What is artichoke? Where is sashimi!?
Unfamiliar foods made me more confuse. What's more, I didn't have enough cooking tools yet, like measuring spoon and measuring cup.

I tried cooking macaroni cheese kit (It is very easy to cook according to instruction.) It was the first dish in the U.S.. To cook without any measuring tools was very dangerous. Besides, reading instruction in English was a trouble job. I cooked it by the eye and faked up. The manual doesn't matter the most important thing is feeling!!

Finally, extremely strange dish was completed. The taste was.......
Just as my expected, It was horrible.... I don't have a talent as a woman, but I may have a talent for mad scientist. I suppose my skill of cooking is better than past.

Good-by coworkers.

I'm home... I was very busy.. I had felt down for a few days, but I had a good thing today.  Now I'm feeling better. Thank you so much! Well, may I continue?

May 2002

I quit my job. I had worked at that hospital for 6 years as a nurse.
Nursing is very hard job and our time schedule was horrible! We seldom had an enough time to rest during working. How crazy job it is! I thought it many times.
But, I always felt accomplishment. I owe it to my coworkers that I felt so challenging.
I appreciate that I worked at there with good friends and bosses.
We were chatting until mid night over sake on my farewell party. I wish I could have Nomikai (Drinking alcohol party )with them again!
I'll be back here as a nurse again! See you again at the same place!

It was suddenly

February 2002

Suddenly, it was decided to live in America.

Because he decided to go study abroad to there. This "He" is my husband now.
I never dreamed of living in the U.S. in my life!!
Since everything was decided suddenly, we could't have enough time to talk each other about in the future. Even we couldn't have a time to hold our wedding ceremony in Japan. Anyway, it was so-----busy at that time!

The very next day we signed to the registration of our marriage, he left Japan a bit earlier, leaving me alone.

Now.... How should I do from now?
(;゚Д゚)I can't speak English at allーーー!!!

インチキ英語ブログへようこそ。

2002年〜05にアメリカのメリーランド州、ロックビル市という所に滞在しておりました。ダメダメ英語力を改善すべく、アメリカ生活回顧録を拙い英語で書いています。いろいろネタはあるのですが、英語力がついていかない...。けど、がんばって書いてみます。
