How to make the strong 'Brand'

Brand is "its name plus its quality plus its meaning", which means that it is something beyond its name and the quality. Let's sow seeds not in the jungle, but in the desert.

For the baby-sitter of tomorrow,

my dad and mom came our home tonight.
Because I have to work on a day off tomorrow...

Got started planning

Most of Japanese have curry and rice for lunch after they had it last night, I believe.

After lunch, I got started planning of this summer from today.

To brush up my English skill,

my wife recommended me to use my favorite movie.

It was first time to open this DVD box which I bought in Boise US.

Listening with subtitles and reading aloud for 10 min.

Can you continue it every day, Lance?

I had my glasses made

from the beginning of this year, because the old one's surface coating was peeled. I hope they gives me a good luck. I noticed that I've strongly required 'luck' from the beginning of this year. Don't ask me the reason, please...

Foxfire's grab bag

has arrived today, which my wife ordered through the web site the last year-end. Above pic is for the Men's one(M size).
It costed 10,000 JPY, Foxfire says it worth approximately 40,000 JPY.

1. Breathable blue long sleeves (6,930 JPY)
2. Black mesh cap(3,990 JPY) 
3. Fleece Jacket( no price tag, my guess is 15,000~20,000 JPY)
4. Warm checked shirt ( no price tag, my guess is around 10,000 JPY) 

Personally speaking, I liked them very much and felt that this grab bag was very good value. But only the cap was too small for my big head... So it was given to my elder daughter, and she loved it! I mean I'm happy, anyway.

End of the winter vacation

18 consecutive holidays? Too soon. Are you ready for tomorrow, Lance? I don't think so...
