Work as much as we can, then....

guess.
だそうです。

今日のentrepreneurshipでprofessorが言ってた。
ですよねー、やっぱりそーだよねー、と1人でえらい納得。
きっとこの言葉の重みっていうかポップなんだけど
結構そこにある諦め笑いみたなのに気がつく人はいないのではないだろうか。

このprofessorはそういう所の感覚が自分と似ているので結構、個人的に受けます。

globalismを単なる隣町との寄り合いがでかくなっただけだろ、と言ってしまう所とか、さすがですね。
ほんと、その通りだと思うし。橋かかったからしかたねーから行ってみるか、って感じでしょう結局。
世界がそれをやってるだけ。だからみんなお国根性丸出し。で、できあがった渾然としたものをglobalと呼ぶ。
田舎から出てきた人が東京を作ってるみたいなもんだ、きっと。

で、出ていかなかった田舎ものは都会から来たやつをいじめるみたいなね。
なんか、小学校の時そんな感じだった、そういえば。行く先々で。
別に、いじめられはしないけど、いやーな空気だあれ、最初の2週間くらい。
北朝鮮か、全く。

Guess.
Professor told us in entrepreneurship class today.
I was convinced a lot like Yeeees, I agree with uuuu so much,
and I know that many people does not realize how heavy and serious with an air of resignation even though it looks like pop and light word.

I feel funny to this professor because I also have similar feeling and I rarely find such a person.

For example, he said globalism is aggregation of 2 villages.
Just they got bridge; then they feel they have to go across it because it is there. After all, people’s feeling is simple and clear. Now the entire world is doing that. that’s it.

So everyone show off their nationalism; then we call such a funny aggregation as globalism. It is like people from country sides make Tokyo.

Some villages do not go out; then they mean to outsider from city side. Now I remember when I was in elementary school, it was there wherever I went. I was not pushed around, but I did not like such a wired air around class in first 2 weeks. Hmmm, oh it is same as North Korea.

Count

最後のMid-termが終了。
さてさて、カウントダウン開始な感じ。

クラスでnegotiation game をやった。
nativeが話し出すと全く付いていけない。で、相変らずガーンとなる。
わかっていても悲しいものは悲しいし、嫌なものは嫌だ。

ということで、ダンスやってるときが唯一ホッとするときだ。
少なくとも、それだけを楽しめる。

いい天気だなー。

----------------------------------------------
I finished last Mid-term.
Then, countdown started for graduation.

I play negotiation game in class
I couldn't catch up conversation well when Americans started talking.
It makes me stupid.... hmmm

so, I feel relief when i practice dance.
I can concentrate it and enjoy itself. simple, loud and clear.

Well, it is great outside today.

Candy and Chocolate

もう、いろいろやってみるも、特にうまく行かないので、今quarterは暇人でいよう、と思い中。
待つときはおとなしく待つことにしよう。

亡くす物と手に入れるものは年々その割合を変えていって、気が付いたらぼろぼろ物が落ちていることに気づく。
と同時に、結構いろいろ貯めてたんだと感心もする。でも、率直に言って気持ちのいいものではない。
飴を1個拾ったらチョコが3個逃げて行く感じ。

で、そんな感じを表すと、こうなる。日本語版が手元にないので英語にて。

"Yeah. He said he had the feeling things were disappearing on him. I don't know what kind of things he meant. But whatever they are, sometime they're going to go. We shift around, so things can't help but go when that happens. They don't disappear until it's time for them to disappear. Like that dress you got on. In couple of years, it won't fit you, and you might even want to go on drives with me anymore. Can't helped. As they say, just go with the flow. Don't fight it."

"I'll always like you. That has nothing to do with time."

"Makes me happy to hear that, because I want to think so too," I said.

(366, Dance Dance Dance, Haruki Murakami)

この後もなかなかよいくだりが続く。

とにもかくにも、そういうことだなあ、と思う。
必死にやった結果、そしてこれからは、それもわかって必死にやるんだろうなあというのが
個人的にかっこいいと思う。それかただのあほなのか。

--------------------------------------------

I tried sometimes, but, I could not make it. So I’m free this quarter too and will keep it. What I need to do is to wait, I think.

When I think about what I lost and get, the more I getting old, the more I lose. The ratio between those two are changing year by year. Once I realized it, I know I lost a lot. In the mean time, I am impressed by what I got a lot before. But, frankly, it makes me feel bad. For example, when I get 1 candy; I lose 3 chocolates. What a sad story. If I express this transient feeling, it is the following.

"Yeah. He said he had the feeling things were disappearing on him. I don't know what kind of things he meant. But whatever they are, sometime they're going to go. We shift around, so things can't help but go when that happens. They don't disappear until it's time for them to disappear. Like that dress you got on. In couple of years, it won't fit you, and you might even want to go on drives with me anymore. Can't helped. As they say, just go with the flow. Don't fight it."

"I'll always like you. That has nothing to do with time."

"Makes me happy to hear that, because I want to think so too," I said.

The sentence continues. If interested in this, check the book.

Anyways, I am really convinced by the sentences. As a result of working hard, we understand sense of mortality; then we still keep working hard, knowing this feeling. Hmmmm, it is cool or just idiot. What do you say?
