The last day of the two part-time workers

We gave them a message card and a small gift.
We sent a flower bouquet to their house.

We are going to be busy.

Look what you've done.
You should've helped them more.
You should've listened to them more.

You should've put yourself in their shoes.

Work as if you owned the company, you were the CEO

Communication Breakdown

I don't know what to say.
If I don't say anything, nobody understands me.
It's hard for me to talk friendly.
How can I be more optimistic.
But I don't think I'm pessimistic.

There's always ambivalence.
My mind is complicated.
Is everybody like this?

I'm only sleeping

There are lot to do but I don't feel like doing anything.
When can I be a good singer?

Am I selfish!

I was not listening to you.
I always think about what to talk about me.

You may have wanted me to ask you about your job.
But I went through it.

My sentences often begin with "I"...

tunnel vision

Why do I make mistakes?
I want to be a broad-minded person.
I want to look at things with a wide point of view.

Humpty Dumpty had a great fall

All the perfect drugs and superheroes wouldn't be enough to bring me up to zero.

I made a medication error again.
I handed a wrong medicine to a patient.
He found it out himself and brought it to me.
I was lucky he was a good person.

Why am I make so many mistakes?
I think I'm going insane.
I need some help.
It may be the sign of depression.
I want to relieve the stress.

Some big power is telling me something

I found a mistake today.
We had handed out different medicines to our patient five times in a row.
The difference was insulin "cartridge" and "kit."
The patient had injector at home, so we had no doubt when we handed him the cartridge.
But when we look at the prescription carefully, it said "kit".
We didn't realize it until now.

The component is the same so he had no health trouble.
That was good.

We have to be more careful.
When I feel something is wrong, maybe something is happening.
I'll bear it in mind.

Addicted to midomi

It's all right to take part in the project of making music data base.
But I'm kind of too addicted to midomi.
There are a lot of things to do.
Doing housework, reading "Harry Potter", preparing for work, etc.
I'm lucky I don't have any kids to take care of.

I have to make a good schedule to deal with things to do.
First of all, I need a "Paper Chase Day".
There are too many documents on my desk!

Murphy's law again

If anything can go wrong, it will.

I make lots of mistakes recently.
That makes me annoyed.

"If there is any way to do it wrong, he'll find it."
I tend to find bad way to do anything.
Why?

Why does my subconscious mind go wrong way?
Something is strange.

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows came to me

And I started reading it yesterday.
I wish I could read much faster.
The book is too heavy to carry around.
I will read at least one chapter a day.

Japan beat Australia in Asian Cup 2007

I remember the tragedy in World Cup 2006.
Australia reversed the game against Japan at the very end of it.

Japan is changing after Osim became the coach.
The game was 1-1 after the extension.

The penalty shootout depends on luck.
Osim disappeared before it started.
There was no more for him to do.

They won the penalty shootout.
Japan was lucky.

Osim said Japan was doing much better than Australia.
I'm glad to hear positive comment from him.

It's raining again

When will the rainy season end?
I want to get rid of this gloomy feeling.

I tend to have hostility.
I want to blame it on the weather.

Music therapist

I can't live without music.
Like Tower Records says " NO MUSIC , NO LIFE".
You can say that again.

I hope I can be a music therapist.
Through music I can heal people.
It must be very challenging.

But you have to play at least two musical instruments.
I used to play the piano, guitar, mandolin, bass guitar...
But not completely.

I want to play the piano and guitar.
I'll try again.
I also want to have voice training to be a good singer.

Wednesday, July 18, 2007

Do I sense some hostilities?

If I have hostility to someone, the person feels the same.
I find something ugly in others because I have the same faults.

I'm very irritated today.
Why can't I be more friendly?
Why can't forgive others?

After the holidays and the typhoons

There were too many patients.
I couldn't finish today's work.
I will do the rest of the work in the morning tomorrow.

Day 2 of the workshop

I couldn't sleep well last night because the workshop was very stimulating and I had to either a leader or a presentor of the group today.
In the morning we had two-hour discussion to make up plans to evaluate students of pharmaceutical department.
Everyone except me and a few other members was so excited and producing plans.

I couldn't join the discussion.
I was so isolated.

In the afternoon we discussed the problems of pharmacy education.
I had some opinions on the topic so I could join the discussion and I did the presentation.
I couldn't answer the questions because I was nervous but other members helped me.

The two days were too hard.
I want to be strong.

The workshop for pharmacists

The typhoon had gone.
It cleared up.

I joined the workshop.
We had several small group discussions.
At first I thought nobody would express opinions because we all first met.
Pharmacists tend to be shy.
That was my stereotype.

Some members were very active.
The discussion was very fruitful.

I thought I didn't fit in there...

In the afternoon I did my best to express my opinions but not good enough.

Saturday, July 14, 2007

The typhoon is coming but I have to go

I'm not willing to attend the workshop.
I have to take part in a discussion.
If the train stops because of the typhoon, the workshop will be postponed.

Wish me luck..

Man lives to look for the place to die

I once heard a song which says such a thing.
We all have to die.
We are approaching to death day by day.

I want to think about how to die.
Before that, I want to think about how to quit the job.
I want to leave the company with a great achievement.

I want to end my life with a great achievement,too.

Spending someone's hard-earned pay

But you have never noticed it.
I'll make you realize.
Be more serious and find a decent job.
When you have enough money, it's time to restart your business.

Lookig for the right words to say

Rain, wash away my sorrow.

When I don't know what to write, I use some lyrics.
I try to write by getting inspiration from them.

It sometimes doesn't make sense.
It's funny like I'm living in an imaginary world.

Only love can break your heart

The resigning part-time workers declined to attend a farewell party.
It's a pity but I 'm a little bit relieved.

There is no more friendship between us.
Not only love but friendship can break my heart.

A death of a homeless

A homeless called "man on the street" died.
He was the member of the SNS "mixi" in Japan.

He posted some notes from an internet cafe or by using his cell phone.
His ex-wife paid for his cell phone bill.

He used to work at a big company but he went to jail because his boss committed a crime.
He was involved in it.

After he went out of jail he became homeless.
A college student asked him to join the SNS and he did.

I found him very intelligent .
I could see it from the text he wrote.

I think it's easy to fall down in life.

The man on the street wrote he was going on a trip.
It was his last message.
And he passed away.

Sunday, July 08, 2007

Bear in mind

Your resignation is the final statement you make that reflects your personal character.

I understand.
I'm not sure when I'm going to quit.
When I quit this job, it's time for me to independent.

I will leave the company with a positive reason in the future.

Saturday, July 07, 2007

Won't you please help me!

OK.
But no more monetary aid.

By the way ,when are you going to help me?

Accidents can happen

But, please not on my way to work or home..
I worked until 8 pm, and the train was not coming because of the accident.
Somebody may have injured or died.
There are lot of people who dive into a railroad track.

I can see clearly now

Music is my life's foundation.
I really like to sing.
Maybe I can make friends through music.

I found an interesting article.

********
The full top 10 for OnePoll's Most Irritating Song of All
Time is as follows:

1. "You're Beautiful" - James Blunt
2. "Axel F" - Crazy Frog
3. "MMMBop" - Hanson
4. "Mr. Blobby" - Mr. Blobby
5. "Birdie Song" - The Tweets
6. "Shout" - Lulu
7. "Agadoo" - Black Lace
8. "Grace Kelly" - Mika
9. "My Heart Will Go On" - Celine Dion
10. "Macarena" - Los Del Rio
*********

That's interesting.
I once sang "My Heart Will Go On" at midomi.
The song is easy to sing but I think it's kind of boring...

my ever changing moods

Yesterday I was kind of desperate, today I feel so good.
It's all right the long-time part-time workers are going to quit.
We can manage.

One of the part-time worker may stay until September.
I don't think it's necessary but my boss tried to persuade.

I've made up my mind we will do without the two.
There is still one part-time worker.
Her children are all in elementary school.
she still needs lots of time to take care of them.
But she's a good worker.
I hope she can work longer as time goes on.

I feel good but I'm still a little bit confused.
I'll think about my concerns tomorrow.

Tuesday, July 03, 2007

Some managers, as a matter of principle, refuse to try to dissuade outgoing employees.

Really?
I wish I could be like that.

What should I do?
Two part-time workers say they are going to quit in this month.
They say they have to take care of their old parents.

I sense truth is somewhere else.
They feel they are kind of isolated.
The members at the workplace changed a lot.
There are many young workers.

I find conflicts sometimes.
It may be a generation gap.
I should have paid more attention to the problem.

Is it too late?
I don't know what to say.

Will somebody help me?

Monday, July 02, 2007

Don't worry too much about it.

In the long run, it will stabilize, I'm sure.
Will somebody please make me convinced?

Forget about the work now.

I got a message from a Mexican girl.
The sentence is simple but I can't understand.
I want to write her back.
Does she understand English?
I will ask my friend first.

Fujiko Hemming

I saw Fujiko on TV.
She lived a hard life but now she's famous and happy.
She says she's happy.
But she's concerned about the tragedy in the world.

She had been always living for others.
God had been watching her behavior and he gave her a reward.
That's why she is happy now.

Generosity is important, she says.
That's why she likes latin countries like France and Italy.

I think I want to be more generous.
