Day Twelve: Jordan Trip Part Three
The next day we went to the beach. I don't know if it is fair for all nations, but Russians, when they travel abroad, they do their best to not meet other Russians. In Jordan, it was the opposite.
We walked through the sand searching for the available beach umbrellas. All of them were occupied by locals. Fun fact, women (fully dressed) and kids were sitting under one umbrella, men (fully dressed) under another, and only Russians (in swimsuits) mixed under one umbrella. We joined the Russian group most of the members were under 60. I believe that locals were discussing our group because of their smiles and faces with slight contempt.
I'm not a swimming person and I don't want to get a tan that's why I covered myself with a ton of layers of sunscreen under the umbrella and observed differences between groups.
There was one young woman who fearlessly lying down in a bikini with no emotions on her face under the sun. Of course, all eyes were on her. If men were satisfied with the view women were the opposite. Yes, I described local only, Russians paid no attention, they were busy talking about food, hotels, markets, or discussing what part of Russia were they from.
In one moment a local woman began to beat the drum and sing something, and one Russian babushka started dancing. I thought it would melt the ice between groups but seems it only made the local laugh. It is only my opinion, but I think they couldn't get why senior people are okay with their bodies and they are not shy to show imperfections.

La troisième guerre mondiale
La guerre ne fait pas de gagnants, ça c’est mon avis. L’autre jour, puisque j’avais du temps libre, j’ai fait de la recherche sur les guerres de nos jours. Il y en a beaucoup. Peut-être que vous pensez que j’ai recherché un sujet un peu bizarre. C’est vrai, d’habitude je fais de la recherche sur les sujets plus positifs comme les voyages, la culture, l’histoire, les énergies renouvelables ou même la nourriture.
Je vais vous expliquer pourquoi j’ai choisi ce sujet. Mon explication est simple. Dans l’actualité, on ne parle que des guerres : l’année dernière, c’était la guerre en Ukraine et désormais, c’est la guerre entre Israël et le mouvement Hamas. J’ai vu les photos et c’est tragique : tellement de personnes sont mortes et les bâtiments , les hôpitaux et les écoles sont détruits. La dévastation est complète.
Selon ma recherche, c’est inquiétant car il y a autant de guerre en ce moment, trop nombreuses pour être énumérées ici. Et il me semble que chaque année, il y en ait de plus en plus. Je me demande si la prophétie de Nostradamus se réalisera. Il a prévenu que la troisième guerre mondiale commencerait au Moyen Orient.

Rassismus-Welle in Deutschland seit dem 7. Oktober
Um meinen aktiven Wortschatz in der deutschen Sprache zu erweitern, habe ich entschieden regelmäßig zu schreiben. Ich bin der Überzeugung dass solche Beiträge, zudem ich Korrekturen erhalte, eine effiziente Methode zur Verbesserung meiner Sprachkompetenz ist. Dies ist mein erster Beitrag; allerdings kannte ich schon den Namen „LangCorrect“.
Ich bin entsetzt, wie rasant den deutschen Diskurs in eine ausländerfeindliche Richtung im vergangenen Monat entwickelt worden ist. Klar, es gibt immer zumindest manche extremistische Akteure wie die AfD — und es wird so weiterbleiben. Doch besorgniserregend ist die rapide Übernahme solcher rassistischen Polemiken in die Mainstream-Gesellschaft. Es ist ein trauriges Resultat mehrjähriger Nachsicht gegenüber der rechtsextremistischen Szene. Und nun spürt man endlich die Freisetzung dieser brüllenden Kraft, die nicht konsequent entgegengesetzt wurde.
Die Bilder zu den Hamas-Angriffen auf dem 7. Oktober sorgten für Frustration: Raketen, Geiseln, an friedliche Zivilisten gerichtet. Solche Gefühle werden jedoch für eine gnadenlose Ausländerfeindlichkeit — besonders gegenüber Muslimen, Arabern und Türken — instrumentalisiert. Dass offene Darstellungen der Sympathie gegenüber Palästinensern hinsichtlich der 10.000+ Toden oft pauschal als „Judenhass“ durch Assoziation mit Hamas- und IS-Anhänger deskreditiert wird; Äußerungen wie Forderungen zum Entzug deutscher Staatsangehörigkeit (Söder, CSU; Buschmann, FDP Justizminister) oder Israel-Bekenntnisse bei Einbürgerungen (CDU MdB Frei, erster parlamentarischer Geschäftsführer der Union-Bundestagsfraktion), oder auch zur Unterscheidung zwischen „Deutschenrechten“ und „Jedermannsrechten“ (FDP Politiker:innen) bezüglich politischer Rechte; dass der Vize-Chef der FDP und der Generalsekretär der CDU dazu fordern, eine „Migranten“-Quote von 25% in Stadtvierteln bzw. 35% an Schulen einzuführen, dass Sprachen anders als Deutsch auf dem Schulhof ein Problem seien; dass Minoritäten — besonders die vorher ernannte Gruppen — von der Politik behandelt werden wie unter Generalverdacht (jüngste Rhetorik des Vizekanzlers und des Bundespräsidenten, dass solche Minoritäten mehr von Hamas „distanzieren“ sollen). Als ein Chinese der Arabisch learnt — das tut mir weh. Ich bin entsetzt, wie ehrgeizig die Menschen in Deutschland deren freiheitliche egalitäre Ordnung abschaffen wollen — wie maßgebliche Anteile der wahlberechtigten Bevölkerung bestimmte andere, gegenüber denen wir die gleiche Verantwortung haben, eben nicht als gleichartige und gleichberechtige Menschen ansehen.

Japanese grammar
Let's practice the most basic subject-predicate grammar.
I'll explain「わたしはアンです。」.
”わたし” refers to I and is the subject.
"は" is a particle. It is pronounced "wa”.
It adds the meaning "to speak of it" in reference to the subject.
When "アン" is used as a predicate, "です" is added.
"です" is a polite expression.

Giovedì
Ieri sera siamo andati dalla nostra vicina ( vive di fronte a noi ) e siamo stati sul balcone per passare del tempo un po' e raccontare delle storie quotidiene.
Ero così stanca dopo il lavoro, quindi non ci siamo stati molto tempo. A volte per gli altri è difficile da capire che sono il tipo di persona che preferisce avere una serata tranquilla a casa, ma cerco di non lamentarmi troppo.
Vado di nuovo in ufficio lunedì e martedì prossimi. Non so cosa succederà a dicembre. Non posso credere che fra poco inizia un nuovo anno. Com'è passato il tempo!
A domani, come al solito!

Recognise the schemes and write
When I created my account on Lang Correct, I naturally put English and German as target languages because these are the two I need to be fluent in. I needed to learn German from scratch because I live in Germany and, by the way, I enjoy it. It is for example always a pleasure to take a time to write and post my texts and discovering new words make me feel like a child who finds candies on a treasure hunt. The same doesn't go for English unfortunately. I consider myself as a good intermediate learner, even if I didn't pass any exams to confirm it. But I am deeply sorry, deer correctors, to confess that in conntrary as for German I do not have any comparable feelings for the English language, hence not the least motivation to write texts, to learn or even read a book. As a result: I keep being able to communicate fluently, however I feel that my sentences don't all sound natural and ask me a lot of efforts to build.
So what makes me write in English today? Exactly that: I had to write an e-mail and it was bad. I am starting to think that even if I almost don't need it currently, I might miss opportunities in the future if I sound basic because I cannot express complex ideas with colleagues and potential recruiters. On the other hand, I know I will soon tend to go back on my beloved German. So my scheme is: I work my English only when I am pissed at myseff after having to recognise my inabilities. Good to know.
I write German when I have both time to and an inspiration for the topic and the style I want to create. It takes me a lot of efforts but I'm always very proud at myself when I finally post it. My scheme goes like that: I follow my guts, enjoy my natural inclination for German, block the time needed. When I have to study it seriously with a book, I tend to procrastinate (is this verb as common as in French?) in the form of starting to learn some Polish. Polish is a language that I don't need to learn outside of being able to politely greet people in shops or restaurants. Guess what language would benefit me the more in Poland: English! So my scheme is: If by lazyness I don't want to study seriously German, I switch to something not easier but not so useful.
I recognized my schemes, now the question is what to do of this knowledge. I could always have English material under hand so I can blame myself and return to English instead of Polish every time I am too lazy for German. Or I could keep following my instinct and stay chaotic ,and certainly inefficient, about it.

콩쥐에 대한 감정
한국 속담에 선인장이라고 하면 잔혹한 동화 '콩쥐와 팥쥐'의 주인공 콩쥐가 떠오른다. 이 동화는 예쁘고 착한 콩쥐가 계모에게 학대를 당한 것에 나눈다. 콩쥐는 고되고 힘든 일을 당하며 부당한 대우를 받아도 계모에게 순종하며 부지런하고 마음이 따뜻한 소녀가 되었다. 그래서 사람의 출신은 자기가 미래에 어떤 사람이 되는 데 영향을 크게 미치지 않고 좋은 사람이나 나쁜 사람이 되기는 사람마다 선택이다.
콩쥐는 계모에게 구멍이 있는 장독에 물을 채워 놓기, 나무호미로 밭을 타기, 베를 두 필을 짜기 등 고되고 힘든 일을 당하며 부당한 대우를 받는 경우가 작지 않다. 하지만 이러한 이겨낼 수 없는 역경에 콩쥐가 두꺼비, 황소, 참새 등 도움을 받았다. 이는 콩쥐뿐만 아니라 구사회 약자들이 당시 곤경에서 벗어난 데 도울 수 있는 어떤 행운이 있기를 희망한다는 것을 보여준다. 이런 희망의 마음은 두꺼비, 소, 참새 등 한국인의 농경 생활에 익숙한 동물들에 나타났다. 게다가 행복과 도움을 받겠다는 희망은 콩쥐가 재탄생된 것을 통해 더 강하게 강조된다. 콩쥐가 진심으로 행복하게 살기 위해 여러 번 재생하는 모습은 당시 한국인의 가정 행복을 추구하는 사고방식이다. 한 인생의 성공은 바로 결혼하고 부자가 된다고 하기 때문이다. 그러나 콩쥐가 소극적과 수동적인 성격을 가진 인물이라고 생각한다. 콩쥐는 계모와 밭쥐에게 학대를 당한 곤경에 처했을 때 반항도 안 하고 참으면서 살았기 때문이다. 그리고 계모의 시련에 맞서면 콩쥐는 단지 앉아서 울기만 했다, 심지어 밭쥐에게 해를 입었을 때 밭쥐의 나쁜 행동에 대해 강하게 목소리를 높이지 않으며 다시 살아나도 계모와 밭쥐에게 직접적으로 복수하지 않았다.이는 베트남 동화의 인물인 땀이라는 캐릭터가 떠오른다. 줄거리는 비슷하지만 마무리는 콩쥐에 비해 땀이 다시 살아나자마자 손해를 입은 사람의 원수를 갚다고 하는 점에 달라졌다. 땀의 복수는 악에 저항하는 능력이 일어난 것을 보여준 신호이라고 생각한다. 그래서 부당한 대우를 받지 않기 위해 콩쥐는 저항을 할 줄 알아야 한다. 당시 한국사회의 약한 민족도 마찬가지이다. 시민들은 지배 세력에 대한 저항과 투쟁으로 역경에 벗어나도록 노력해야 한다.
이처럼 우리는 권선징악을 믿기 때문에 콩쥐과 같은 항상 착하게 살려고 노력하는데 일상생활에서 부당과 어려움을 겪은 경우에는 견디지 말고 악에 강력히 저항해야 한다.

さいきん、よくこの歌を聞いてる
こんばんは！みなさん、どこにいますか？何時ですか？私の町に、夜十一時なんです。
「カボチャさん、ねむくない？」と聞いているでしょうね。じつは、私は毎晩午前二時ごろ寝る人なんです。もっと早く寝るのが健康（けんこう）ですけど。。。
今回、この歌が紹介したいと思います。
さくらしめじの「わがままでいたい」という歌でーす！
この歌はとても明るいと感じています。悲しい時に聞いてみて、ぜひ嬉しくなるでしょうね！
私は日本語が下手ですから、あまり歌詞（かし）がわかりません。でも、意味はよさそうですね！「信じてみよう どんな明日も」と歌っていて、好きです！希望（きぼう）している感じがあって、ちょっと感動（かんどう）しています。
「わがまま」というのは、英語で「selfish」という意味です。私はたまに自信がないので、「もうちょっとわがままでいよう」のほうがいいかもしれませんね！🤭
ところで、二週間ぐらい前お台場でさくらしめじのはっぴょうかいを見ました。ギターをひいて歌うのが上手ですよ。本当に楽しかったです！あの日から、さくらしめじのファンになったんです☺️
みなさんどんな音楽が好きですか？一番好きな歌は？めずらしい音楽にも興味があるし、みなさんは私に色々な歌がおしえられます。
では、「わがままでいたい」を楽しく聞いてみましょう！またねー！

Many people believe that children should be taught to become a well person in society by there parents at home, while they are others who think that the place is sustaining for learning this is school and i agree with this point of view.
Firstly, some people feel that parents is the person who have a responsibility to teach their child according to this vision, the basis of their children starting from home, parents have to teach them to ensure that they understand about values and their position in the society.
Others people, however, feel that children have to apprehend that information by their teachers, from this point of view in case that, children have not only at home but they also can communicate with friends and teacher each other, moreover whole the time of student is justfor academic so they can enroll some out door activities to increasing their good characteristics.

Canada's Wonderland
Ich habe nach Andreas' Schwester gefragt. Sie haben seit vier Jahren nicht mehr miteinander gesprochen. Ich war schockiert. Mein Gott, warum? Er hat mir erzählt: Als ihre Mutter starb, heiratete ihr Vater die Palliativkrankenschwester ihrer Mutter, eine 25 Jahre jüngere Frau. Seine Tochter (Andreas' Schwester) war wütend und brach alle Verbindung zu ihm ab. Als Andreas sich weigerte dasselbe zu tun, hörte sie auch sich auf, mit ihm zu reden. Autsch! Ich bin sicher, dass der Geschichte noch mehr steckt, aber ich finde es sehr traurig, wenn Familienmitglieder so streiten und sich weigern miteinander zu reden und dann alle Verbindungen zueinander abbrechen. Viele Familien auch hat eine ähnliche Geschichte ...
Um fünf Uhr haben wir verabschiedet. Im Auto habe ich den Kindern die Geschichte von dem niederträchtigen Chris Little erzählt. Er arbeitete auch im Vergnügungspark ...

Die Öko-Bauern
die Wörter und Redemittel ersetzen bitte,wenn es nicht natürlich klingt. danke im Voraus:)
Heutzutage herstellen Bauern immer mehr ökologisch. Welche Ursachen stecken dahinter?
Bevor ich zu diesem Thema Stellung nehme , möchte ich mit Hilfe der Grafik einige Fakten präzisieren. Das Schaubild gibt einen Überblick über den ökologischen Landbau in Deutschland. Betrachtet man das Schaubild genauer , so fällt sofort auf, dass die Zahl von Betriebe und Agrarfläche im Zeitraum von 1996 bis 2006 relativ gestiegen ist. Während 1996 nur 2,1 % der gesamten Agrarfläche ökologisch gebaut wurde, waren es 2006 bereits 4,9% .
Aktuell steigt die Nachfrage nach Öko-Produkten , weil Menschen mit der Zeit vergleicherweise großen Wert auf die Gesundheit und das Umwelt legen. In diesem Fall ist es hervorzuheben, dass die veränderten Ernährungsgewohnheiten der Menschen diese Nachfrage stark beeinflussen.
Bioprodukte enthalten sowohl weniger gesundheit- und umweltschädliche Stoffe wie Düngemittel und Pestizide , die in der konventionellen Landwirtschaft eingesetzt werden. In der Massentierhaltung werden Tieren an einem engen Raum gehalten, so dass sie sich kaum bewegen können ,folglich sind anfällig für Krankheiten . Die Herstellung von Bioprodukten ermöglicht es dagegen , dass Tiere auf großen Flächen weiden.
Wenn so eine ahnliche Umfrage bei uns durchgeführt würde, sähe die Situation nicht anders aus als in Deutschland. Hierzulande ziehen sich Menschen zunehmend Bioprodukte, da die Meinung vorherrscht , dass sie nicht nur gesundheitlich ,sondern auch umweltschonend sind.
Ich möchte erwägen, dass dabei Naturkostläden große Rolle spielen, denn kann man dort fast jede Art von Bioprodukten finden, die in anderen Läden kaum zu finden sind. Diese Läden bringen jedoch einige Probleme mit sich. Vor allem können sich manche Menschen diese Produkte dort nicht leisten, weil sie nicht preisgünstig angeboten werden.
Zusammenfassend kann man dazu sagen, dass wir unsere Essgewohnheiten grundlegend ändern sollten, sei es um die Umwelt zu schützen , sei es um gesund zu leben .

Le restaurant
Depuis longtemps, j'ai des problèmes avec mes yeux. Ils sont souvent trop secs à cause du manque d'un lipide. C'est un truc génétique, mon grand-père et ma mère ont également souffert de ce problème. Mon ophtalmologue m'a conseillé de manger des poissons gras pour avoir plus d'oméga 3. Mais je n'aime pas manger des animaux. Pour quand même assurer le taux d'oméga 3, j'ai commencé à manger du sushi et de la salade avec des algues. Près de chez moi, il y a un très petit restaurant asiatique où on peut manger ça. J'étais le seul client. Au moment où je suis entré, on a mis de la musique pop horrible et on a baissé le son de la télé à laquelle on pouvait regarder un match de foot. C'était une ambiance assez triste avec l'éclairage au néon, mais bizarrement tout cet ensemble m'a mis à l'aise. Le plat était très bon et la femme qui m'a servi le sushi était d'une beauté discrète. Dehors, il a commencé à pleuvoir et personne s'intéressait ni au match de foot ni à la musique pop. Personne ne disait rien. Après avoir fini le plat, je restais assis très longtemps sans que quelqu'un ait remarqué ça. J'aurais pu rester assis jusqu'à la fermeture de ce petit restaurant laid, caché et sans clients. Ils ont oublié comment se comporter vis-à-vis un client. Ils m'ont simplement oublié.

私の独学方法
卒業していますので、どうやって日本語をならってつづけるんですか？
かんたんじゃないですよね！では、私の独学方法（どくがくほうほう）について話したいと思います。
まずは、私はきょうかしょを使うのが好きです。日本語のじゅぎょうをとっている時、「げんき１」というきょうかしょを使って勉強しました。卒業の後、「げんき２」を買いました。きょうかしょは、たんごも文法もならうことができるから、いいですね！書いたり、読んだりするのも練習できます。
聞くのを練習することも重要ですね。さいきんポッドキャストを聞いています。「日本語コンてっぺい」というのがおすすめです！ゆっくり話すから、聞いてわかるのがやさしいと思います。それに、てっぺい先生はおもしろいですよ！色々なテーマがあるし、ぜんぜんつまらなくないです。楽しくて、よく聞きたいです！みなさん、独学で勉強したら、「日本語コンてっぺい」を聞いてみてください。
おすすめポッドキャストは、「田中ラジオ」もあります。田中先生がてっぺい先生よりはやく話すから、ちょっと難しいです。でも、おもしろいテーマもあるし、聞くのが楽しいと思います！
日本語の動画（どうが）は、YouTubeにたくさんあります。このごろ、一週間に四回ぐらい「あかね的日本語教室」（あかねてきにほんごきょうしつ）というチャンネルを見ています。「日本語の森」（にほんごのもり）もおもしろいと思います！ほかのチャンネルをしっていたら、おしえてください。
それでは、今回はここまでです！どう思いますか？みなさんどうやって独学することが好きですか？読んでくださってありがとうございました。またー！

please correct my writing
firstly, the ability for individuals to create their own films offers substantial benefits for those aspiring to work in the film industry. With the accessibility of high-quality smartphones, aspiring filmmakers can now produce movies without a significant budget. This provides them with invaluable experience in setting up scenes, directing, and understanding the mechanics of the industry. Uploading content on platforms like YouTube or Facebook enables exposure to vast audiences, potentially leading to recognition, if their content is engaging. Successful individual projects might even pave the way for opportunities to work on larger budget productions. Aspiring actors, too, can gain experience and visibility by participating in these independent productions. Overall, this democratization of filmmaking opens doors for talented individuals to display their skills, gather exposure, and build their personal brand, without being dependent on traditional gatekeepers in the film industry.

Análisis de una noticia
Vi una noticia en la que reportaron sobre el caso de una mujer que se vio obligada a abandonar la escuela donde se desempeñaba como maestra por haber optado por otro medio de ingresos en una industria particular. Según ella, trabajaba dentro de un distrito que menos pagaba, en una escuela que menos pagaba su profesión, así que su salario no daba para cubrir todos sus gastos encima los préstamos estudiantiles por los que se preocupaba. A causa de ellos, tomó la decisión de crear una página en un sitio web para contenido de adultos para complementar sus ingresos. A pesar de tratar de mantener oculta la nueva profesión, varios padres de los alumnos se enteraron de ésta y apresuraron al distrito que le despidiera. La maestra afirma que la directriz del distrito solo menciona que los maestros deben comportarse con profesionalismo en el ejercicio de sus trabajos, algo que considera un poco vago y abierto a la interpretación propia. Además, añadió que sustentándose del salario escolar nunca iba a alcanzar pagar sus deudas. Al contrario, desde que abrió su página, ha generado más ingresos en un mes que recibía en un año antes. El caso plantea una pregunta interesante, si es ética que los profesores de escuela ejercen simultáneamente otro trabajo en la industria para adultos.

Day Eleven: Jordan Trip Part Two
The second red flag appeared when we arrived at the hotel and were waiting for the check-in. At that moment, we met our first new friends, a couple of girls E and S around our age. I misheard their dialog:
"If I had known it would be like this, I wouldn't gone to Jordan"
"Yeah, I hope we don't come back in the body bugs."
It pushed me to start a little chit-chat about our concerns and the incredible attention from locals just because we are women.
Even though not many local women were wearing hijabs, and some of them were dressed like us (pants and long sleeve shirts) local guys still preferred to stering on us.
We left our bugs in a room and went to the grocery store still in the same clothes. T and I felt so insecure because guys were saying something after us, they whistled and applauded. I wish I was exaggerating, but it is the true story. The driver leaned out of the window of the moving car just to a whistle!
I should mention we are not models we have a pretty ordinary appearance. Yes, we got some attention from guys before but when every single person looks at you or pauses his work of folding items in the store just to follow you between aisles it becomes weird and uncomfortable.
The first day was like in a fog. We were scared and confused and somewhere at the diner table met two more young people a boy P and a girl N. For the rest of our trip, six of us (T, P, N, E, S, and I) will gather together in the evening near the swimming pool.
T chose this country because two of our workmates came here a week earlier but stayed in different hotels. After dinner, we met with them somewhere in the city and went to check local markets, the waterfront, and some streets. We thought walking around with two guys would be less scary but our friends, compared to hairy massive locals, looked so young and innocent. So we all just walked and watched how locals twisted their necks. It was the last time we went out late at night.

私の研究について
私は１０月に大学院２年生になった。環境問題を中心に、日本の災害物語を研究している。論文のタイトルは、「日本の災害物語のエコクリティシズムの分析は、災害と環境に対する態度について何を語るのか？」だ。エコクリティシズムとは、人間と自然の関係を中心に文学を分析することだ。
この研究には三つの目的がある。一つ目は、日本の災害物語が災害と環境に対する態度について何を語るのかを理解することだ。二つ目は、これらの物語がどのように、そしてなぜこれらの態度を再考したり批判したりするのかを理解することだ。三つ目は、これらの物語が日本や世界に影響を与える新しい考え方を作ることができるのかを理解することだ。
これらの目的を達成するために、私は日本の災害物語のエコクリティシズムの分析をする。博物館、文学、映画、ビデオゲームの物語を分析する。

日本人をホストしました・お礼の手紙
田中さんへ
木枯らしが吹き、日一日と秋が深待っていくようです。私のこと覚えてますか。何回も言っても、もう一度お礼を言いたいです。田中のおかげで、私はいま日本に留学しています。田中は十年生の時、我が家に来てくれました。当時、私は田中はすごい人だと思いました。同い年なのに、知らない国に行って、知らない家に泊まるのは大きな自信がある必要と思いました。その時、田中は私のお憧れの人でした。ずっと内向的な人で、人と話しかけるのは嫌だったが、田中の笑顔と前向きな姿勢を見て、居心地いい場所から抜け出して、もっと社交的になろうと思うようになりました。その結果、私は日本にいる。田中のように、沢山の人と会話して、人脈を増やして、視野が広げたいです。
それで、目標の大切さが教えてくれました。田中は英語を上達するためにオーストラリアに来たでしょう。その明確な目標を立てるのはモチベーションを保つ。
実は、田中に来た前の時、家庭の状況は非常に悪かったので、私はすごく落ち込んでました。でも、家族のみんなは田中のために笑顔として、仲良くしました。それで、その強制的な幸福感は徐々に消え去って、の本物の愛と帰属意識に変わりました。田中は私の家族が救いました。改めて、ありがとうございました。
せっかく日本にいるから、また今度会いましょう。私も田中の家族は空いたアイです。お礼を言いたいです。

Oggi e domani lavoro di nuovo da casa. È perfetto, specialmemte perché fa freddissimo e piove.
Sono ancora stanchissima, dato che ieri e l'altro ieri sono andata in ufficio. Non è stato male, ma preferisco lavorare da casa che andare in ufficio.
Fra poco accenderò il computer e tutti i documenti. È qualcos'altro farlo in silenzio. Quando dobbiamo andare in ufficio non ci sono molte persone, ma dobbiamo andarci almeno 4 giorni al mese. Noi decidiamo quando. Spero che continuerà così.
A domani.
