Birthday

I had a worst birthday 3 years ago. ( I hope that would never happen again, never ever.)

Since then, I fall in emotional unstable, feel uncomfortable, am depressed and have nightmare around my birthday.

This year, I have 2 birthday party held by friends.

One was a surprise with most of the people I met at the party for the first time.
Even though I am shy, they were friendly and entertained me so well, I had really fun time

Another party was with close friends. I didn't know who was coming the party and kind of surprise. Well organized and heart warming.

I am graceful that I have met those wonderful people and have amazing friends in my life. Then why should I keep holding bad memories for a long time??

Bad memories should be blown away and keep happy memories.

Thank you so much

this winter.

After I heard the news, I wondered why I haven't heard any of similar news
from other countries where get lots of snow and even colder than Japan.

I asked this question to my English teacher who came from Edmonton, Canada
which is one of the big city and also located in north part of Canada.

He told me his opinion.

1, Edmonton is far from Ocean, so the snow is not heavy.
In Japan, it's really clo se from Ocean, snow get moisture.

2, Canada is new country compare with Japan. There aren't many old buildings
and/or houses to be crushed by snow.

3, In Canada, probably much prepared for snow more than Japan
because it's too cold and get lots of snow.

I'm not sure about this is right or not. Although it's interesting.

I hope this weather condition get better and Japanese people don't need
to worried about heavy snow as soon as possible.
