No!! Dragons was checked!! They became not to be able to lose any more absolutely. I have been a fan of Dragons as I have been in Nagoya or suburbs of Nagoya since I was born. But those who are living outside of both Nagoya and Chiba might make no mention of the Japanese Series. It appears in fact that terrestrial broadcasts were abandoned three times. However It is enough for me if I can watch games by satellite broadcasting.

There are many athletic festival held in October. Even though Health and Sports Day was on the second Monday in October, an athletic festival for my daughter was held yesterday. She participated in footrace as short as 20 meters but enough for 3-year-old children. every mother was prepared for her child's goal at the finish line. After a while 3-year-old children performed playing imitating shrimps and crabs in a circle. But my child didn't perform well. I asked her why she went out of a circle, but she didn't answer and only tried to change a topic.

I appreciated that this athletic festival was held without any worry as we quit doing any activities in the last year because of H1N1 flu.

Health and Sports Day

There are three holidays in Japan from October 9 to 11.
Today is a national holiday called Health and Sports Day annually on the second Monday in October.

Even though Health and Sports Day is a day to promote sports and physical and mental health, I couldn't participate in any activities oppositely because of wearing a cast on my knee.


However tomorrow will be the last day wearing a cast.
I've been wearing a cast for two weeks, and it cost approximately 15,000 yen until I take off a cast.

  • Fist day's diagnostic - 7,000 yen
  • Magnetic resonance imaging - 8,000 yen

I have to abandon purchasing all what I want, e.g. new iPod touch or iPhone...

Japan vs. Argentina

It's first time that Japanese national football team historically won against Argentina by 1-0.

Before kickoff, I didn't believe that Japan won so that I predicted Argentina would win.
I sometimes bet on football matchs with colleagues.
What we bet on every match is 110 yen canned juice each colleague has to pay for a winner.
The result was... everyone missed!

We have to apologize to Japanese national team for thinking about their loss as we did at FIFA world cup 2010.
