Good evening everyone!
Today I have been considering about getting a better guitar than my 17,000¥ used Syairi which bought at Book Off. I want to buy a Gibson. They make some of the best guitars, and almost every professional guitarist in America can plays them. Average prices for new ones ranger from 250,000¥ to 500,000¥. However, I want to try to buy a used one on an auction. I should be able to get one for about 125,000¥ or so, hopefully.
Do you have any suggestions on buying something like an expensive guitar online? I know that it is best to look at the guitars, hold them, and play them before you buy them. I guess I am relying on the quality of Gibson when making my purchase. And hopefully if the item is not as it is described in auction, I can return it and get my money back. We can do that in America with E-bay.
Can you do that in Japan?
If you have any advice or know anyone who has an old used Gibson guitar they would like to sell, let me know!
Thanks!!
Goodnight!
Good evening everyone!
I am finally starting to get better (although my birthday really was the worst birthday I have ever had in my life!).
My body feels much better now, but it is still difficult for me to talk and I can't sing (I love to sing. It makes me very sad...) However, I think this situation is helping me become a better singer. I have to use my voice differently to make the correct sounds which I could usually make without trouble. I have to use my lungs and muscles differently. If I can keep this system when my voice gets better, I think I might be able to singer higher than I could before. I hope so!!
After I get all the way better, I plan on going out for karaoke with some friends during Golden Week! I am very excited about that!
How about you? What are you plans for Golden Week?

Today is my birthday! But I am sick. Yesterday I was coughing all day. Today I am not coughing, but I have a fever (high temperature) and my body is very tired. Also, when I woke up in the morning my voice was gone (I could not talk. only a tiny bit). My voice is starting to get better, but it still hurts to talk and I can not sing well.
I think this is the worst birthday I have ever had (in my life). This is the first time I have been sick on my birthday. It is not fun.
Have you ever been sick on your birthday?

I am sorry I haven't written for a couple days. Recently, I have been a little tired, and have been falling to sleep (going to sleep) accidently.
Yesterday, I went to the Sanfrecce game with one of my students, a young girl. I was very interested in watching how a professional soccer team plays, but she was more interested in talking to me. In the end, I think both of us had fun.
The gamed ended with a score of 1-1. Nagoya got one goal around 70 minutes into the game. Sanfrecce had several VERY close goals (about 4 or 5) but were unlucky until they scored in overtime (extra time at the end of the game). They finished the game at 1-1. The Sanfrecce player who scored the goal in overtime was awarded Player of the Match (the best player in the game) and was given 1,000,000¥ as a reward.
I wish I was a professional soccer player... :)

Here is a picture of my Green Maple Trees. They are small now (I only started this bonsai last year)but they are growing quickly. By the end of this year, I expect them to be about 80cm tall. I am making these trees into a forest (a place with many trees - in Japan, forests are usually on the mountains). Right now the leaves are just starting to come out. In 2 or 3 weeks it will be much more beautiful with many leaves.
