Parts of my life

Throw away your television!!
Sun. Aug, 26 2007

Sun. Aug, 26 2007 The IAAF World Championships have started in 大阪 and, as every international event (Athletics, football, and rugby soon...) shown on local TV, all you can see is the 12^th position of the local "champion" in Pole Vault, the Japanese so-said Prince of something, the Japanese so-said angel of something else, but no ranking, sometimes no name of the competitors and don't even think of seeing a first round of a competition in which no Japanese run......

お疲れ様
Fri. Aug, 24 2007

Fri. Aug, 24 2007 I finally ended this long and exhausting week that made me see not much but work and bed... The guys from the company acquired earlier this year decided to organise a 飲み会 at LF Cafe in 虎ノ門. The problem was that they made it Japanese time: starting at 7:15pm. Of course, most of the French were late (I went back from client meeting at 7:40pm) but the night was nice and gave a real opportunity to discuss wit... [Read]

震える週
Sun. Aug, 19 2007

Sun. Aug, 19 2007 This week was a special one. For, so many things happened. Some unusual and kind of scary, some unexpected, some usual, some new, some common...
The scariest one was the number of earthquakes. We got quite a lot of 5+ this week like the one that woke me up on Thursday morning (with a big replica at work) or the one yesterday. We didn't have for a while but this week, we caught up. Let's hope we got the share for the next months as well. No damage nor problem (especially when we compare with the... [Read]

Late note
Tue. Aug, 14 2007

Just a few words in front of NHK (they are making a sum up -2h long, though- of all the documentaries they made about France) as the time goes by and I still have a couple of things to do for work before going to bed. Yes, today was a tough day and, worse, I have learnt that this week-end might be hard, too...

For, I'll have to work on Sunday and maybe on Saturday too. Good bye my plan of 鎌倉 on Sunday (maybe Saturday) and the search for good beaches... [Read]

Rugby rugby and more rugby!
Mon. Aug, 13 2007

Because September 7^th is coming soon, it is good to take a glance at what is awaiting us (early in the morning for this part of the World, though)... Just wish that France will be the next name engraved on the Ellis Cup on 22^nd... Quite sure the day after might be difficult at work but I definitely have to move over the last final I watch on a Monday morning, in July 2006 that ended in a sad sad way... At least, this time, the final is on Saturday night, ie a Sunday morning... [Read]

東京はもっと暑いいたら
Sun. Aug, 12 2007

Sun. Aug, 12 2007
今週末、仕事そしなければならなかった…これから、普通でない事の時だった：休む…
土曜日、不在配達通知書を貰ったから郵便局に行きなればならなかった。でも今度、自動車でを決定した。多分、八ヶ月で自動車を使わなかった…久しぶり！郵便局まで、十分にかかる。でも、内に帰る時に、左に回った。一時半後に内に着いた…自動車で、大森のエリアを見つけた。海まで行きました。でも、この天気で、自動車は気持ち：風はいつも振っている！楽しかった散歩だった。内に着いたら、地獄を感じていた：暑いいいい！その時に日曜日のプログラムを決定をしました：海で泳ぎ行く…
これから、今日、十二時半、大森駅、電車を待っています。行き先：鎌倉！一時頃後に、鎌倉の名店のエリア中、イスを食べて、散歩している：古い店、レストラン、寺、鎌倉のビール、日本人、少しの外人、太陽、写真機、門、木、丘…と海！キレイ…曇りは全然無い。三時です。僕の日本夏休みが始める。気持ちいい！読んだり、寝たり、泳いたり。三時間で、全部を忘れる：仕事、客さん、安堵…良かったです…
でも、今、週末は終わり。さらに、五時後に置きます…大変です！来週末を待っている！！

This week-end is now over (and I already feel that the wake up tomorrow morning -in 5 hours-) will be kind of difficult... But that was a very nice week-end. EVerything started on Saturday (although the idea poped up in my mind during the week). I had to go to the ゆうびんきょ... [Read]

夢じゃない
Sun. Aug, 5 2007

Sun. Aug, 5 2007 No this is not a dream nor an illusion but some surprise, probably.
Back from holidays two weeks ago, I have some time to post a few words here. This time, I won't make any promise telling that I won't be busy in the coming weeks so I'll be able to tell you everything about me and 東京: I know that I'll keep on being busy (until an unknown year).

So, what's new? Hmm, still 2 parts in my life (getting more and more specified).
Professionally, everythi... [Read]

一口餃子クーニャン
Wed. Aug, 1^st 2007

For no particular reason (but maybe 2 missed attempts to go there for lunch), we -all the Frenchies of the team- decided to hit this place, in 新橋. Nothing really special about it but the 6 of us (we asked a French guy working for one of our client) had good time and enjoyed the -cheap- food.

And it is always nice to find ourselves in the middle of サラリーマン (we were the only がいじん:foreig... [Read]
