Super Cool Biz

Summer is coming soon this year too. I feel as if it is getting hotter every year. Hot weather is hard for businessmen who wear suits while they are working. The government came up with a plan of cool biz in 2005 to help fighting global warming. First it was cool biz, now it is super cool biz. The government launched super cool biz to encourage staff and help reducing the use of air conditioning with more casually dress because the nuclear emergency at the Fukushima happened. Also, the government is worried about electricity supply disrupted by the Tohoku disaster.
A plan of super cool biz has both an advantage and a disadvantage. An advantage is that companies set their air conditioners to about 28C because businessmen wear casual dresses which are cooler than suits. Therefore, it can save energy and reduce CO2 emissions. On the other hand, a disadvantage is that casual dresses could make visitors feel uncomfortable without jacket and tie. It may be impolite for some people.
Our group discussed an article of The Japan Times which title is Cool Biz campaign goes ‘Super’ this summer. I guess this plan is interesting because it is common sense to care about their appearance on business for Japanese people. In my opinion, I agree with a plan of super cool biz. The most important thing people have to emphasize now is environmental deterioration. However, cool biz has not seemed to be success. I think the reason why that the government can’t set cool biz. Only company bosses can finally set cool biz in their companies. I would like to wait and see what happens.

NGO


Recently, there are many problems and issues in the world, and activities by NGO are standing out. The purposes of NGO are welfare, education, custom and environment. It can move adoptable to supply the close service along individual circumstance. Therefore, NGO is nonprofit and citizens’ group. However, organization in the field engine of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs seems to be increasing today. I guess it means activities by NGO are admitted much. Anyway, I searched NGO on the internet and, I knew there are also many small organizations in NGO.
 First, I found an article about a group of ACE in NGO. There are a lot of street children, orphans, children who escaped from violence and extreme poverty and work hard under cruel circumstances. Also, it is said that there are about 246,000,000 children who can’t receive educations because of that reasons in the world. The proportion seems to be one in six children in all over the world. ACE has been acting for these children since 1997. ACE is not only to support in the local, but also they hope Japanese children to grow up with children who subject to the activity of ACE.
Second, I read an article about CARE. Their mission is acted for disaster and poverty in developing countries and trouble areas. However, the earthquake and tsunami which happened in Japan is really serious, and CARE couldn’t overlook the problem as one of putting office in Japan. Therefore, CARE would support for advance country at first time.
Serious problems happened all over the world today. They are really ominous and weird. I think unhappiness state will continue, so all people have to cooperate each other to survive. It is impossible to live without other help. I respect NGO which the first group to acted and help people by nonprofit.
I read the article from http://www.afpbb.com/article/pressrelease/contribution/2792062/6995246

An Article about Tornado

       I read the article about tornado in Tuscaloosa, Alabama in the latter part of April. It is not the latest event though, I want to discuss about that because I went to Alabama last session of fall. Therefore, I couldn’t help writing. Content of the article is that Monster tornado devastated, and the death toll from the tornado climbed to two hundred thirty. Also, about one thousand houses, churches and shops are assumed to be damaged and destroyed. In addition, A reporter who had just gone back to America from interview of devastated area in Japan said that this disaster has an ominous parallel with Japan’s.
       When I knew that, I contacted with all my friends who live in Alabama immediately. The time difference between Japan and Alabama is 14 hours, so I was irritated with the waiting time. My friends are safe after all, and I’m relieved to hear that. However, my friends sent me some photos which are desolate ground in Alabama. Those are shocking and unbelievable. I though it looks like the Tohoku district as a reporter said. Moreover, I found from another article that eight students in University of Alabama where I went four month ago seem fell victims to the monster tornado. It’s really sad news for me.
       After I read the article, and I also tried to check some videos in YouTube. There are shocking videos which are monster tornado and the situation of city after tornado left. Recently, environment problem is badly day by day. I really think it is impossible to human being conquer nature. Before situation is more serious than now, we should think about and seek the best solution of pollution and destruction. We need to be one and cooperate for that reason.

Wedding (Partner)

       I would like to talk about a partner. I have heard that people can’t marry to a person who is the best for them. Minds aren’t same as each people though, some people include my friends say if they marry to the best partner for them, they have kept watch over him above their want, and they have bothered the partner. Chiefly, they are tired because they have restrained them much. Therefore, they want to marry to the second person who they don’t need to chase for them.
I think it’s weird. I know about their thinking, but they just seem to escape from trouble. It’s natural to keep watch over and restrain a partner for all people because you really love your partner. However, you must not intrude every your opinion on your partner because your partner also have their opinion and condition as you have. The most important thing is that to love is to give, not to ask. Also, it’s important to take love accurately which your partner gives you in his own thinking. I think if people could understand these things and considerate of each people, I feel like many of them changed minds and thought they want to marry to the best person for them. I believe that.
       Anyway, the best partner of my ideal is a person who tries hard everything and who I respect. I think to respect is necessary between husband and wife. In addition, the condition which I can’t miss is a person whose feeling is same as me. However, I will not find such a person easily. Then, it’s more difficult to live with the person. Therefore, to marry to the best person is kind of fate. Actually, if a guy who like I say appear in front of me, I don’t know whether I come to love him. People are greedy, so it might be that “the grass is always greener on the other side of the fence.” To marry is really difficult.

Wedding

I went to my friend’s wedding last week. I have known each other since we were six years old. I couldn’t believe that he get married so early. I mean, we are still twenty years old. It is impossible to marry to someone for me now. There are some reasons why I think so.
First, I think I am still just a girl. I mean, I haven’t had experiences about everything deeply yet, so I need to try something I have never done before. Then I want teach and told my children when I have them. Second, a child can’t bring up a child, and if you were childish, it is difficult to keep good relationship between husband and wife. Both of them have to be considerate of each other, and I think he or she need to excuse some problems which their partner have done. Situation of people who are just going out with, they can part or do whatever they want. However, situation of people who married, I think it is not easy to part. Finally. I guess there are a lot of opportunities to change own life. For example, whenever I can study abroad if I want. Then, anything could happen there. Anyway, it is early to marry for me.
I would like to marry to someone in the future. I went to the wedding, and I was impressed to see that. It was really awesome like story of Cinderella. Then, the bride wore beautiful wedding dress, so it made her more beautiful. They looked the happiest people I’ve ever met. I feel so nice to see them, and I envy them a little. I realized that to have a partner who has lived with together is really great and happiness. In addition, I respect them that they decided to live with together, and they recognized they are the best for each other. I hope their happiness.

about Blog

       Hello, this is my first time to write this blog. Maybe, I will have many structure problems, but I'll do my best and keep doing it until this session. I have another one blog for my private. I contribute an article to the blog from my celphone, so I can be easy to renew. I renew it whenever I want because of this reason. Therefore, the blog is about my daily life. Also, my blog is linked with blogs of some my friends. I sometimes comunicate with them useing the blog.
       There are some good points to have own blog. First is that if you had own blog, your friends who can't meet you for a long time could know about your condition easily. In the same situation, you can know about your friends's condition from their blogs. Second, you can make friends through the blog. However, people who have own blog have to note about all people can also watch each blogs. This is right to happen something worse problems because of blogs or kind of facebook. In other words, a blog has both advantages and disadvantages. I have a blog, so I will watch out for that.
