A camera I received. It has a cap commemorating the Los Angeles Olympics. How many years has it been since then?
When I opened it, the seal was tattered and light was leaking through. So I researched how to replace the seal and learned about it. I also researched how to clean the lens.

(Painting: Liberation of Death, Liberta! Freedom!)
Everything is an illusion. If I can get into this school? If I can work at this company? If I come to this country? I'll be free, someone whispers in my ear. At that moment, without realizing it, humans sign a 'contract of unfreedom' within the 'concept of freedom' that has been given to them. The freedom that is given is 'adjusted freedom' based on the vested interests of the person who gave it. (PS. Examinees, students about to enter the workforce, think carefully!)
True freedom doesn't exist. Read More »
The near future I often dream of. Looking at this reminds me. I keep looking back at that time. It was evening, the wind stopped, the sea surface became beautiful, and I went surfing. That was San Diego. Looking at the Pacific Ocean alone, I wonder how those people are doing.
Born in 1995 (Born as a Japanese resident of Korean descent.)
When I was a student, I applied for a job at a Korean company without knowing it was a Korean company.
In the final interview, almost all the other students were bilingual (+). Waseda, Keio, etc. In terms of resume, ability, and title, I was at a disadvantage in every way (lol).

The other day, I visited a Brazilian community in Gunma with a friend. Wow, from the selection of goods to the atmosphere, it felt like I had come to a foreign country, it was the best. (Multiculturalism is comfortable, isn't it? My lungs expand to inhale that kind of 'energy'.)

I like concepts like paradoxes and contradictions. For example, a sign that says "Distracted Driving Danger!" which you can only see if you are distracted driving, makes me smirk.
Understand completely? That's impossible. Read More »
In particular, I think Japanese TV in general is completely unnecessary to watch. I haven't watched it for years. (I do watch news on Al Jazeera, etc.)
The sun generates light, but at the same time, it casts a pitch-black shadow, you see—that kind of phenomenon exists in everything.
I lived in Hawaii. I learned many things that only those who have lived there can understand. I met many wonderful local families, and they took care of me. I am truly grateful.

Simply put, it depends on the person and their goals.
But one thing I can say is that the way foreign languages were taught? learned? at school had zero appeal. I got failing grades and had to retake tests.

I've often been told, "You overthink things," but so what? I always think. After all, "Man is a thinking reed," so it's natural to think. There's no such thing as overthinking.
I just "think more [than others]".
