  1. My ideal person

    I have known my ideal person for two years . he is a prudent man , So always I take his advice with closed eyes and he usually pushes me to Success . In addition , he is confident even he suffer a hard stress . he can pass any thing that he wants . Also, my ideal person is a romantic man . For example , he can't sleep well if he have a touch with his wife . In fact , he will sleep , but he will have bad dream that makes him very sad about the problem . My ideal person often deals with mercy , so he has a soft heart that keeps him closer to me . In fact , if I didn't admire him 2 years ago , I would not be married now :) .

  2. Great Nation from a Great Values

    In Strasburge France I met students from all over the world throughout the summer course of the international Space University (ISU) which was hosted by Louis Pasture university. There the students from the US was dominant as well as the members of staff .in a way that the culture and American values were frankly presented intellectually and rationally.
    I should admit however my full admire and respect for my closed American fellows that I met for the first time in my life . In this perspective one might ask : what are the lessons learned so far that lead me to this tangible conclusion.?
    In response with respect to that particular experience I would say quite truthfully that their positive attitudes and approaches towards life as a whole is a story of success for human community
    In any event the most valuable values and characteristics from my perception are .the high talent and the deep sense of freedom as a result of fairness ,and equity that made them eventually express them selves loudly with an entire confidence.

  3. The person whom I respect

    I respect my grandfather. He dead 8 years ago. He is a my father's father. I love my grandfather♥ First, he was a thoughtful person. He always cared his friends, neighbors, and family. Also, he cared about people who need help. When I was child, he always fixed up things such as electronics and houses for helpless people. Of course for free. haha He said "I like making a person a smile." He had a heart. Second, he was very positive person. He could change negative to positive very quickly, so he smiled all the time :D When I felt blue, I went to his house because he could change my mind to positive. Finally, he had many good friends. They helped him if he needed to help. When he dead, his friends visited his house. More than 700 people came to his house to say good bye to him. Everyone unanimously said that "I respected your grandfather" I know why many people respected him because he respected them. He was warmth, positive, and kindness. His face was bright with joy everyday. I admire his personality.

  5. Hi, Nada =)

    I agree your opinion which is your ideal parson pushes you success and always has confidence because all people can't success something just by herself, I mean everyone needs help, so you are happy to find a parson who helps you.
    I hope I would find a parson like that as soon as possible, haha.
    In addition, I also admire the parson who always has confidence because this is importance point, I think. In my opinion, to have confidence of myself means to believe myself. To success something we should believe ourselves even though we feel it's so hard for us. I suppose this is the first step to achieve something.

    How do you think?

    I should express my admire in your husband in fact he has helped me in a genuine fashion in some housing imepdiments.He deserve more than in what was expreesed so far in the main text I would say.I am not saying that because I am bias twords Saudi fellows but any man who would have this character deserve more than that such as Yuna
    grandfather for instance.However with respect to my sister memories she was so smart to keep her house and family by means of secrifing for her husband. In fact she kept telling me this advice; once my husband arrived home I start perparing his favorite meal noted " the man head is in his stomach !!". She kept loving him with long lasting genuity before she pssed over last year.
    However my re-wrtting for your text if you would excuse me could be as follows

    "I have known my ideal(life partner) for two years (by now) . He is a (man) of prudence which makes me always accept his advice blindly.Nevertheless, he kept encourge me more and more for success without running out of confidence what ever were the situtions and events. I should say at last but not least that he is really a decsive man.
    Having saying all of that I should point out to his romantic side of his character; he is a man with a romantic sence and has a sweet heart in the way that makes him never ever go to sleep if he felt once that his feeling of his benloving wife was broken. . In any sence I will keep loving my husband since he deserve all my love, admire and respect. He has been my choice for life now and for ever.

  9. Hi Nada :D

    I envy you because you have a prudent person!! I want to find that person. I usually talk to my mother when I need advice but she just said "It will work" She haven't give me specific advice! haha So, I have to think about it by my self therefore I became positive person :D
    Anyway, I have question. Is he your husband?? If so, it's really nice!!!!!!

  10. Hi Yuki :D

    How are you? Do you still have a headache? I hope you will be okay!! By the way, I so agree with you. When I met person who has self confidence, I thought "I want to have self confidence" but I couldn't. I really want to know how to get self confidence! I think American people have self confidence and strong opinion. NOT LIKE JAPANESE. haha I will learn the key from American :D I want to be a success in my life!

  11. This post if from Yuuki (not Heather):

    Hello, everyone =)
    How is your weekend? I hope you guys would enjoy because this weekend is so nice day☆

    I'm going to talk about the person who I admire. I have two persons, but I'll talk just one parson. So if you want to know about another parson, please come my blog!

    The parson is my older sister who is very nice because she gets everything which she wants by herself. Of course, she had depended on our parents about money until she got a job. She always chose her way by herself even though our parents disagreed, and if everyone except her thought her decision was wrong or not good, she made her life improve or get better. For example, when she had had to choose which university she would go, she decided one university which was not high level and not famous in Japan. The reason why she chose that university was she wanted to go university which is just for women. Another university had higher level, more famous, larger ground and more students than her university, so my parents wanted her to go another university. In Japan, when we get a job, academic background is very important.This is also reason for my parents. Although my parents regretted that they couldn't persuade her, they satisfy that they let her to choose by herself rather than regret as she enjoyed her university life so much and got a job, and she enjoy her life now.

    Second reason why I admire her is that she never gives up. For me, if I have something to do which is so hard or not important for me, I don't do that. On the other hand, she does everything even so it has no worth for her because she thinks it will be useful for someone. When she has a lot of work to do ,and someone ask favor of her, she always accepts someone's request. Then, she finishes everything even though she spares her time of sleep. I can't do that,, I don't know if this is good, but at least I think this is not bad thing.

    In addition to these reason, she is always think of me. When I left Japan, she cried for me at airport. At that time, I decided that I wouldn't waste this experience and be disappointed her.
    Her tear gave me power. After I came here, I sometimes text her and tell her my worries or thought, and she makes me be relaxed. I really rely on her and trust her, so I want to make her be surprised when I go back Japan by showing my growth or achievement.

    I'm sorry for writing long,,,
    See you, tomorrow =)

    Yuuki

  13. Hi yuuki , yes , of course that's what we must do . believe and believe and believe ourself even we have mistake until we reach the point that brake that good meaning of confidence to the Vanity !! then if we reach that , we must cure ourself !

    In addition , I admire your sister also by your writing . she seems confident also .
    the point that attracted me is when you wrote about the Farewell moment .. I really hate this feeling !!


    thanks yuuki
