This phrase represents breaking the opponent's power and weakening them to seize victory. Nico has an intellectual and calm fighting style, and aims for victory by analyzing her opponent's techniques and utilizing her own skills. A hold technique is a move to intercept the opponent's attack and gain an advantage by disrupting their posture. By shout

Death and rebirth 2

(continue)

The idea that it's important to make yourself happy comes from Mr. Hitoli Saito, a famous Japanese merchant.

I really like this idea.

If we can do that, we will always be happy.

Sometimes, things around us can make us feel unhappy.

In a spiritual way of thinking, there is a belief that your thoughts can affect what happens to you. It's the law of attraction.

Thinking positively can bring positive things, but thinking negatively can bring negative things.

It's better to think positively, like dreaming big or wanting to be successful.

If you don't feel very happy, try to do something that makes you feel good right away.

You can think of something you like or eat something that makes you happy.

It might be a good idea to think about your favorite idol.

For me, eating chocolate or drinking coffee would make me feel happy, but be careful not to eat too much or you might gain weight.


自分で自分の機嫌を取るという考え方は銀座まるかんで有名な斎藤一人さんによるものだ。

私はこの考え方がとても好きだ。

もしこの教えを実践出来れば、常に幸せな気分でいることが出来るだろう。

周囲の不快な状況に、気分が左右されるのは仕方がないことだ。

スピリチュアルな世界観に、幸せの法則というものある。これは自分の思考は宇宙に放射され、その思考に共鳴する現実を引き寄せてしまうというものだ。

ポジティブな思考はポジティブな現実を引き寄せるし、ネガティブな思考はネガティブな思考を引き寄せる。

どうせ引き寄せるなら、夢がかなうとかお金持ちになるとかポジティブな現実を引き寄せたい。

もし機嫌が悪いことに気づいたら、すぐに自分で自分の機嫌を取るように努力しよう。

そのために、好きなことや楽しいことを考えたり好きなものを食べて自分の機嫌を取ろう。

私の場合、大好きなチョコレートを食べたりコーヒーを飲むことで自分の機嫌を取ることが出来るだろう。ただし食べ過ぎて体重が増えると逆効果なので要注意だ。



Writing is fun.

I recently started updating my blog again, which I haven't done for a while. I want to improve my English writing skills by writing on my blog.

With the AI services that are currently popular around the world, it's easy to write in English.
It's a very comfortable world.
The AI services that I often use are ChatGPT and DeepL.
Both are excellent AI services, but I feel that the translation results are quite different.
Text can vary from person to person, and AI is probably the same.
I convert the finished text to an MP3 using an online service.
I download the converted MP3 to my smartphone and listen to it while I'm on the go.
Since I can learn English through the sentences I write, it's easy to understand and writing has become more enjoyable.
Eventually, I hope to be able to write directly in English without relying on Japanese.
It's possible to use an AI service to correct the English text I've written.
I adjust the Japanese to make it as easy as possible.
I may write more about my thoughts and feelings than about daily events.
It's very important to put your thoughts into words.
What should I write about today?

書くことは楽しい。
最近、以前から利用しているブログの更新を再開した。
ブログを書くことで英語のライティングスキルを改善したい。
今、世界中で話題になっているAIサービスを利用すれば、簡単に英文を書くことが出来る。
とっても便利な世の中だ。
普段よく利用するAIサービスはChatGPTとDeepLだ。
どちらも優れたAIサービスだ。しかし翻訳結果はかなり違うように思う。
文章は人によって変わるものだ。AIも同じなのだろう。
出来上がった英文は、テキストトゥースピーチサービスでMP3にする。
MP3をスマートフォンにダウンロードして、外出中にリスニングしている。
自分が書いた文章で英語の学習が出来るので、理解しやすいし、書くことが楽しくなった。
いずれは日本語を介さずに、直接、英文を書けるようになると思う。
書いた英文はAIサービスを使って添削することが可能だ。
なるべくシンプルな表現になるように日本語を調整している。
毎日の出来事よりも感じたことや考えていることを話題にすることが多いかも。
自分の思考を文章化することはとても大事なことだ。
今日は何を書こうかな?

Death and Rebirth.

I believe in reincarnation because many people talk about life after death and rebirth. 

Also, it seems that there is a mission in this life. 

If there is a mission, I would like to know what it is. 

In my case, wouldn't it be to 'live happily'? 

Because I'm always in a bad mood. 

It's not good to be in a bad mood. 

It causes trouble for others and hurts myself. 

How much better would life be if I could live in a good mood all the time? 

But it is very difficult to be in a good mood all the time. 

That's why it's a mission. 

So how do we live happily? 

Maybe it's by taking care of our own moods. 

(continued)

私は輪廻転生を信じている。

非常に多くの人々が死後の世界や生まれ変わりについて語っているからだ。

しかも、今世には使命があるそうだ。

もし本当に使命があるのなら、私はそれを知りたい。

私の場合、「機嫌良く生きる」ことではないだろうか?

何故なら、わたしはいつも機嫌が悪いからだ。

機嫌が悪くてよいはずはない。人に迷惑をかけるし、自分が損をする。

いつも機嫌よく生きることが出来れば、どれだけ人生が良くなるだろうか。

しかし、常に機嫌を良く生きることは、とても難しい。

難しいからこそ、使命なのだ。

では、どうすれば機嫌よく生きることができるのだろうか?

おそらくそれは自分で自分の機嫌を取ることだ。

February 15th

I usually wake up at 5.20am.

The reason is simple. I think I have enough time //if I get up an hour before I go to work.

The first thing I do //when I wake up is to fold the futon. My room is a one-bedroom apartment, so it's too small for a bed. Then I brush my teeth and take a shower.

I usually don't have breakfast. Some times I have it, but I think I'd better not have breakfast //to control my weight.

I have a little time before I leave home, so I check the weather forecast and study a little English by watching Weather News.

It takes about seven minutes to get from my house to the nearest subway station. I listen to English podcasts while I walk. I can sit on the train, so I read an English book.

As I am always sleep deprived, I often fall asleep.

When I arrive at the station, I go to the terrace of a café in a large shopping center. There I practice my English for about 30 minutes. As it is after hours, there is no charge.

When my time is up, I walk to the office. I listen to English on the way.

The working hours are from 8:45 to 17:45. During working hours, I practice instant English composition with flashcards.

My favorite time at the office is my break at 16:20 pm. Lately I have been drinking drip coffee from a convenience store. Coffee helps me relax.

After work, I run to the nearest subway station. This is both to catch an early train and to get some exercise.

This is my day.


2月15日水曜日。

私はいつも5:20に起きている。

理由は簡単。通勤時間の1時間前に起きれば余裕があると思うからだ。

起きたら、まず布団をたたむ。私の部屋はワンルームだ。ベッドを置くには狭すぎる。その後、歯磨きをしてシャワーを浴びる。

普段、朝食は食べない。食べることもあるのだが、体重管理のために食べないようがいいと思う。

自宅を出るまで少しだけ余裕があるのでWeather Newsを見ながら天気のチェックと少しだけ英語の勉強をする。

最寄りの地下鉄駅までは、徒歩で7分だ。歩きながら英語のポッドキャストでリスニングの勉強だ。電車は座れるので英語の本を読んでいる。

いつも寝不足気味なので、寝てしまうことも多い。

駅に着いたら、大型の商業施設にあるカフェのテラス席へ向かう。そこで英語のスピーキングの練習を約30分行う。営業時間外なので費用はかからない。

時間になったら徒歩で会社へ向かう。移動中は英語のリスニングだ。

勤務時間は8:45から17:45まで。勤務中もフラッシュカードで瞬間英作文の練習をしている。

会社での一番の楽しみは16:20の休憩時間だ。最近、コンビニのドリップコーヒーを飲んでいる。コーヒーを飲むとリラックスできる。

会社を出たら最寄り駅まで走る。早い電車に乗るためと運動を兼ねている。

これが私の一日である。

Feb 14th

Today is Tuesday, February 14th. According to the Weather News, the weather in Tokyo today will be sunny with clouds, with a high temperature of 10 degrees.

Today is Valentine's Day and also a day for chocolate!

"Chocolate is a beloved food around the world. 

There are many movies and books about chocolate."

Of course, for me, chocolate is one of my favorite sweets.

Until yesterday, I had already received many chocolates as gifts (in the context of a game).

I usually learn English by writing my diary in English on my blog and listening to English podcasts.

Especially writing in English is important for becoming able to speak English.

I want to listen to the diary I wrote to learn English on the go, so I plan to subscribe to a paid text-to-speech service.

It will cost about 8,000 yen per year, but I will take the plunge to become able to speak English.

I would like to subscribe to the Natural Reader service.

From now on, I'll study by listening to my diary on the road. Today I will come home early and drink coffee and eat chocolate.

If I have enough time, I would also like to play the game "Sims 4".

Well, I'm leaving now.


2月14日火曜日。

天気予報専門番組Weather Newsによると本日の東京の天気は晴れのち曇り、最高気温は10度。

本日2月14日はヴァレンタインデー、そうチョコレートの日だ!

チョコレートは世界中で愛されている食べ物だ。チョコレートを題材にした映画や本が沢山ある。

もちろん、私にとってもチョコレートは最も大好きなお菓子の一つである。

すでに昨日までに沢山のチョコレートをプレゼントされた(ゲームの中での話だ)

私は普段、ブログに日記を英語で書いたり、ボッドキャストで英語を聴くことで英語を勉強している。

特に英語を書くことは、英語を話せるようになるために重要だ。

折角書いた文章を音声にして、外出先でリスニングをしたい。

このため、有料の音声化サービスを今から契約するつもりだ。

年間で約8000円かかるが、英語が話せるようになるために思い切って契約しよう。

契約するサービスは「NaturalReader」にしようと思う。

本日これより外出中に自分で書いた日記でリスニングをしよう。
今日も早めに帰宅して、コーヒーを飲みながらチョコレートを食べよう。

余裕があればSIM4もプレイしたい。

それでは行ってきます。

My favorite games

I have many games that I have been wanting to play for a long time but have been neglected. Among those games, one that I really want to play is The Sims 4. I purchased the game about a year ago, but I have not played it much. The reason for this is because I don't understand how to play the game and what to do. Since the game has many players globally, I can find many beginner tutorials on YouTube by searching. The game starts by creating a sim and building a house, but it's quite challenging. However, today I discovered that The Sims 4 has a scenario mode and a free play mode. If I start with the scenario mode, the sim and the house are already prepared, so it would have been better for a beginner like me to start with that mode. But still, the game has many elements and it will probably take some time to understand the game system. Actually, I used to play the first series of The Sims People a long time ago, about 20 years ago. Back then, I didn't find it particularly difficult, and I tried different things and played it. Of course, the current system has advanced, but I don't think the basic system has changed much. I feel that it's become harder to understand the game system compared to when I was young, and I also seem to have lost my patience.


The most played game in the past year is "NieR Automata." I became interested in open-world games. I bought the game when it was on sale at a discount price. At first, it took some time to understand the game system, but I was able to play it to the end. I think it's a high-quality game in terms of difficulty that can be adjusted from beginner to advanced, game balance, sound, graphics, and scenario.


The game I play every day is "DOA Xtreme Venus." It's a basic free-to-play game with microtransactions. It's hard to explain what's interesting about it. Perhaps it's more that I'm attracted to the cute girls appearing in the game and the high quality of the graphics, rather than the game itself being interesting. The ease of playing just a little bit every day and the convenience of logging in quickly are also attractive.

February 13th

 It's Monday, February 13th.

Today is Monday, the start of the week.

According to Weather News, today's weather is rain and the highest temperature is 10 degrees.

Even on a Monday, the beginning of a 5-day workweek, it's already a gloomy day, and it's even worse with the rain.

On days like this, I just want to get home early and have a hot cup of coffee to relax.

Tomorrow, February 14th, is Valentine's Day.

I live alone and don't have any friends, so I won't receive any chocolates.

However, I bought some high-end chocolate online, so there's no problem.

Chocolate is my favorite treat.

I usually write a diary in English, speak English with flashcards, and practice pronunciation with an app.

Recently, I've been feeling a little tired.

Still, I plan to continue studying English.

I hope to speak English fluently soon.

And I hope to have a better job with an annual income of 10 million yen.


2月13日月曜日。

本日は月曜日、1週間の始まりの日だ。

Weather Newsによると本日の天気は雨で、最高気温は10度。

ただでさえ、5連勤の始まるの月曜日で憂鬱なのに、雨が降るとは最悪の日だ。

こんな日は早く帰宅して、家で熱いコーヒーを飲んでくつろぎたいな。

明日2月14日はバレンタインデーだ。

私は一人暮らしで、友達もいない。なのでチョコレートはもらえない。

しかし高級チョコレートを通販で購入したので、何も問題ない。

チョコレートは私の大好物なのだ。

私は普段、英語で日記を書いたり、フラッシュカードで英語を話したり、アプリで発音の練習をしている。

最近ちょっと中だるみ気味だ。

それでも英語勉強は継続するつもりだ。

早く英語を話せるようになりますように。

もっと良い仕事に転職して年収が1000万円になりますように。

February 12th

Today is Sunday, the start of the week.

Today's high is 17 degrees. I wonder what happened to the snow two days ago.

It's 7 degrees at 7am. It will get warmer in the afternoon.

Every Saturday night I don't feel well.

The reason is unknown, but it makes me sad to think it will last forever.

I watched a video and felt better. I want to watch it again to keep the good feeling.

I want to renovate my family home.

I'm from Hokkaido in Japan.

My family home is 70 years old. My parents renovated it 20 years ago, but it's still uncomfortable.

I want a comfortable home. I need to renovate the kitchen, bathroom, and plumbing.

I have a Japanese-style room, but it's dirty. I want to clean it up and make it a bedroom.

I like calm colors. I want to use mahogany.

I want a budget of 10 million yen.

I hope to save 10 million yen in the next few years. 



今日は日曜日、一週間の始まりだ。

今日の最高気温はなんと17度! 一昨日の雪は何だったのだろうか。

ちなみに午前7時現在の遺恨は7度。気温があがるのは午後からのようだ。

土曜日の夜は、あいかわらず調子が悪くなる。

原因が不明なのだが、一生これが続くと思うと憂鬱になる。

ゴールデンセレブ動画を視聴したので、一時的に気分はよくなった。

この効果を持続できるよう、何度も繰り返し動画を見ようと思う。


さて今回は実家のリフォームについてだ。

わたしは日本の北部である北海道の出身である。

実家は私が相続する予定だ。この実家、正確なことはわからないが、築70年超である。

約20数年前に、両親がリフォームをしている。しかし正直、住みづらい。

実家に住む以上は快適な生活がしたい。

少なくとも水回り、台所とトイレ、のリフォームは必須だ。

和室があるのだが、非常に汚いので、きれいにリフォームして寝室にしたい。

カラーは落ち着いた色が好きなので、マホガニーで統一したい。

リフォーム費用のために、最低でも1000万は予算を用意したい。

今から数年以内に、1000万円が貯まりますように!

February 11th

 Today is Saturday, February 11th.

The highest temperature in Tokyo today is 13 degrees and it's sunny. It's much warmer than yesterday and the weather is nice.

Today is the first day of the weekend, like always. February 11th is also a holiday. I feel a little disappointed because it's a holiday and it's on a Saturday.

Recently, my weight has been increasing. I weigh myself every day and keep track of it. This week, my weight has been 00.x kg every day and there's been no change. To control my weight, I've been avoiding eating rice for dinner, so I need to try harder.

Today, I'm planning to buy groceries at Aeon. According to information on the internet, the original coffee at Aeon is a good deal. I'm definitely going to buy the original coffee today.

The chocolate I ordered online recently arrived yesterday. It's high-end chocolate, so I'm looking forward to eating it.

Today, I will try my best to study English.

I usually study English using the Anki app, the ELSA app, and web services. I want to be able to speak English quickly.


今日は2月11日(土)です。 今日の東京の最高気温は13℃、晴れています。昨日よりずっと暖かく、いい天気です。 今日は例年通り週末の初日ですが、2月11日は祝日でもあります。祝日なのに土曜日なのでちょっと残念な気もしますが。 最近、体重が増加傾向にあります。毎日、体重を測って記録しています。今週は、毎日58.8kgで体重は横ばいです。体重をコントロールするために、夕食にご飯を食べないようにしているので、もっと頑張らないといけませんね。 今日は、イオンで食料品を購入する予定です。ネットで調べると、イオンではコーヒーがお得に買えるそうです。今日は絶対にコーヒーを買おうと思っています。 先日、ネットで注文したチョコレートが昨日届きました。高級なチョコレートなので、食べるのが楽しみです。 今日は、英語の勉強をがんばります。 普段はAnkiアプリやELSAアプリ、Webサービスなどを使って英語を勉強しています。早く英語が話せるようになりたいです。

10th February.

According to Weather News, it's going to snow in Tokyo on February 10th, Friday. The highest temperature is 4 degrees and it's the coldest of this winter. Traffic could be affected too. It's exciting to hear that it's snowing but it might actually rain. It's not fun to be cold and have rain.


Well, finally it's Friday of this long week. I feel lighter as it's the final working day. After work, I want to go home early, have a warm coffee and relax.


I'm watching a Golden Celebes Session video after a long time. Recently, my neck, back and waist have been hurting a lot. Before, I've watched the Golden Celebes Session video and felt better. I don't think just watching the video would make me feel better, but it did. I hope to feel better this time too.


It seems like the worst work environment is causing me stress and affecting my health. I wish I could speak English soon so I can get a better job. It would be great if I could speak English soon.

February 8th, night diary.

February 8th, night diary.

Recently, I've become hooked on ASMR. What is ASMR?

Simply put, it's a video that records a tingling sound.

Does it tingle when whispered in your ear? It's really pleasant. Tomorrow is Thursday. Mentally, it feels almost like the weekend.

But there are still 2 days until the weekend.

I can't wait for the weekend now. I hope it comes soon.

What should I do this weekend?

The weekend seems to have a lot of time, but it always flies by quickly.

It would be nice if I could use my time wisely.

I have to buy eggs and broccoli tomorrow.

Goodnight.
