The German Christmas Market in Sapporo

Hi! I went to the German Christmas Market in Sapporo with my boyfriend on Monday.  According to the official site of city of Sapporo, it first opened when Sapporo and Munich celebrated their 30th anniversary of sister city relations in 2002.  I didn’t know that, but I visit there every year from my earliest recollections.  Also, this was the second time to go there with him because we went even before going out. 

 

This is the photo of the main illumination.  It was very beautiful and brilliant!  It is surprising that these lights get energy from oil used to cook tempura at ordinary homes, isn’t it?  Moreover, almost all dishes are served on the plates which can be used again and again so this event is very eco-friendlyJ  I enjoyed there, but I got tired at the large crowdL  There were a lot of people including foreigners from Asia and it was difficult to keep up with him if I didn’t hold his hand tightly.  However, on balance, we enjoyed the event greatly this year, too!  After that, we ate black-curry rice although I had a long sausage and French fries.  I was satisfied with it because it tasted good and I could use drink bar for free.  I will go there again at no distant date!

A Special Day

              Hi!!  It has been getting colder and colder these days, hasn’t it?  But I think that it is colder and snowy in December last year than this year.  Is it because of global warming?  I wonder if we can have “White Christmas Day…”

 

              By the way, I had wonderful dinner with my boyfriend on December 9 to celebrate our 1^st anniversary <3  He took me to a nice French restaurant which he made a book secretly.  The dishes were very delicious and beautifulJ  And also I was surprised that he kindly asked a chef to change some dishes in the course menu because I can’t eat fish and shellfish.  I became very glad to feel his delicate concern for me.  In addition, we talked about many things that we did together in the past year.  I felt that the one year spent with him was very short like a flash, but at the same time, it was too long to remember everything.  I’m not sure that this lovely life with him lasts forever, but I decided to practice everything which keeps and strengthens our relationship.  I sincerely hope to be able to celebrate our anniversary together next year, too. 

 

Thank you for listening to my fondness for him XDDD 

Cheers!

Not Titled

Hi, you guys ;)  I haven’t written an article here, have I?  It doesn’t mean that I was very very busy, but I just didn’t have something good to write X(

 

              I had my hair dyed in a beauty salon last Wednesday.  I went there for the first time so I was a little nervous.  However, the hairstylist who took charge of me was so friendly woman that I could talk with her enough to decide the color that would suit me.  Also, I was happy that I enjoyed talking with her about living in foreign countries.  I didn’t expect to have such a good time with her because I am shy and poor at talking with strangers.  When I told her that I am majoring in English, she asked me whether I’m planning to study abroad.  I replied her that if I have enough time and money, I want to the U.K., and she told me that she lived in England for some years!  She said that I can see many people who come from various countries in London and enjoy talking in English with various accents.  She said that the English with Turkey accent was very difficult for her to listen to.  I was so inspired to go abroad by her stories!  I hope that my pretty dream to go abroad comes true some day!!
