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.

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.

How to practice English 3

 Translate your thoughts and expressions into English and tweet them. This might not be the most effective way to become fluent in English, but it's worth a shot. I have a problem that I have not been able to solve so far. It's my motivation for learning English. Many experts on English learning say that motivation is important to become fluent in English. Becoming fluent takes time, and each person has different goals. It's not easy to stay motivated to reach your goal. This is why motivation is important. I understand this reasoning. However, I don't have a specific motivation. The only reason I can think of is money. I want to be able to apply for jobs that require English proficiency so I can earn more money than I do now. But this reason lacks specificity. I think I need to consider what kind of job I want to have, but I haven't done that. Can you really not become fluent without motivation? I don't think so. I believe that many Japanese people who want to become fluent in English have the goal of becoming fluent as the purpose in and of itself. For example, many people play tennis or dance as a hobby. These people have different motivations, but I feel like the most common ones are because it's fun, interesting, or good for their health. For me, what's more important than motivation is willpower. Willpower is a method of converting "I will do it" thoughts into daily practices. If I have the willpower to become fluent, even without a clear motivation, I should be able to become fluent. If I can become fluent, I can prove it.

How to practice English 2

 Last time, I wrote about the thought process for writing an English diary. This time, I will write on the same theme. The purpose of writing in English is to improve English skills. Therefore, writing a diary is not necessary. It's okay to write your own opinion about an article on the internet. However, it's difficult to think and write in English. I want to be able to freely express my thoughts and opinions in English. To do this, it is necessary to have my own thoughts and opinions. And then, it's necessary to have a way to express them in English. If you use web AI services, you can easily translate Japanese into English, and it's free. What a wonderful world it is. After translating my thoughts into English, I just need to be able to say them. I think that by repeating this, I will be able to think and express in English. There is a method for quick English speaking practice called "Instant English Composition." In other words, by doing "Instant English Composition" with sentences that translate your thoughts into English, I think that you can become proficient in English. By continuing to practice speaking the English created by AI on flashcards, I think you can become fluent in English. It is a high practicality because I'm practicing speaking my thoughts in English. Probably, English speakers, no matter the method, are doing similar practice. When I get to know a Japanese person who can speak English, I'll ask what kind of practice they did.

How to Practice English

It is said that keeping a diary in English as a way of learning English is very effective. Writing in English should make speaking in English easier, so it seems like a logical conclusion. However, I have seen opinions on the internet that it is difficult to continue. Some people give up after only a week or so. The reason is that they don't have enough events to write about. That may be true. So, what should be written in a diary? In a word, it is better to write about what you feel or realize rather than events. People think about countless things throughout the day. If you capture what you feel particularly strongly in your thoughts, you shouldn't run out of things to write about. Translating your feelings and thoughts into English, however, is difficult. I have a solution. First, write in Japanese. Writing about your feelings and thoughts in Japanese is very easy. Then translate it into English. Translating into English is easy with AI services on the web. However, relying only on AI is not enough training in English. Turn the English created by AI into flashcards and practice until it comes out naturally from your mouth. I think it is a good way to improve your English skills without spending money, what do you think?

My favorite computer game.

 I like computer games. Although I play less than before. Right now, I am playing the free online game "DOAXVV," which is run by Koei Tecmo. It's an adult game where girls in swimsuits play beach volleyball. It's a paid game, but I have never paid for it and don't plan to. The biggest attraction of this game is the sexy characters in swimsuits. My favorite is Tamaki-san, who is mature and sexy. I also like Amy and Shanti. However, playing for a long time is unproductive, so I think it's important to play with moderation.

February 5th

 February 5.

Every Saturday night my health deteriorates severely. My back and butt hurts so much that I can't do anything. I slept even less than usual today because I can't sleep well at night. I woke up later than usual.

I have a habit of watching a live stream on YouTube called Weather News when I wake up in the morning. According to Weather News, today is a full moon and it's called the Snow Moon in English in February.

The temperature in Tokyo today is 10 degrees Celsius and still cold. But the weather is clear. It seems like a good day for laundry.

A recent topic of conversation is a new AI called ChatGPT. I tried using it myself and found it very easy to translate English and create program codes for Google Sheets. With this tool, it is expected to greatly increase productivity, including English learning. This text was also created by ChatGPT.

With the ability to create simple English sentences, I may cancel the English course I am currently taking.

Today, I plan to focus on Tadoku, an English learning method, during the morning. I believe it's important to touch natural English and develop a sense for the language.

Today I will drink coffee, eat sweets and relax. I have to play a computer game called DOAxvv too. Have a good day today.
