Hi!
It’s been a while…I’m sorry.
Just, I wanted to show you one if you’re interested in some Japanese stuff.
You might know cherry blossom is very special in Japan as flowers and plants.
Every spring, we become mad at them and have parties a lot under the trees.
In Japanese, we call cherry blossoms, “sakura.”
Of course, there’s a tune for it.
“Sakura sakura’
Every Japanese knows that more than the national anthem….
(It’s simply because it’s an allergy of the second world war.
That national anthem is for the emperor and some don’t like it.
It’s ridiculous…music itself doesn’t need to be blamed coz the song is not for wars just adoring emperors and royals.
Thinking about we still have royal families as a symbol, why they attack only that song while they accept royal families’ existence?
I’m not that a person who admire the royals especially but just feeling something stupid in these kind of ditches)
By the way…
The link below will guide you one YouTube video.

A pianist is playing “Sakura Fantasy.”
The real name in Japanese is “Gensou kyoku sakura sakura”
Gensou means fantasy.
Kyoku means song or tune.
About sakura sakura…you don’t need anymore, do you?
Just wishing you like it.
It expresses not only the piano sound but also traditional Japanese instruments.
It blooms and goes.
Chao.

My friend is taking care of the board of the desk.
It seems to take more time to complete than I’d thought.
Of course it’s OK.
Thanks D!
Anyways, I’ve decided to wash the frame of the desk and set it in my room.
There’s an another cheap woody fiber board in my veranda and I guess it might work for some days though it’s just being put on the frame.
And I’ve measured furniture sizes.
Now I’m thinking about furniture arranging again.
Should I put the piano to the window side?
How about the desk?
The piano’s chair and the desk’s chair need room to be moved of course.
I must consider the rug size as well.
It’s enjoyable but bit worrying at the same time.

This is mainly for fixing my study environment.
Some years ago, I put my simple wooden desk into my veranda to enjoy relaxing time.
It means that the desk has been under sunshine, rain and wind.
Its top wood board became rough and its color changed partially.
Meanwhile, in my room, a low table got a premium part.
It’s been active in net surfing, drinking teas and doing trifles.
But not suitable for studying at all.
Finally I decided the desk to be back in my room and the low table to be put away.
My friend kindly took the board repair on.
I took it to his today.
Maybe it’ll be back in several days.
Then I need my room rearranged.
I have an electronic piano, four shelves, one sofa, one low chair and a bed in my small room at the moment.
There’ll be a desk and a chair to be added.
I definitely need a good plan to live comfortably…
