This week were very tired from two midterm examination.
But I think I get so-so score. It is all right.

This weekend, I and my friend ate okonomiyaki three days in a row.
It is very delicious Japanese food, but we were fed up with it. But we become increasingly stubborn, and completed to eat it.
we played some video games in those days. It was very fan.

In Tuesday, I took ancient medieval philosophy course, it sometimes gives me very useful lesson for life.
Professor said in class, "When you have time to spare without something disturb you, what you do is express your spirit."
I impressed this words. I imagined scene, there are very quiet and I sitting here alone. I approach something I like with calm concentration. This is very happy thing.
I want to do it, but recently I don't have enough time.  Since I entered this university, I always feel short of my skills, I cannot afford to enjoy favorite things.
I like read literature, I want to read English literature in English. But now, I take a lot of time to read it.
Someday when I equip enough skill, I want to try it. So, I have to study hard English now.

In this week, I read three books.
Yoko Ogawa's Numeral Formula The Professor Loved（博士の愛した数式）, Mahokaru Numata's Purr（猫鳴り）, Franz Kafka's Metamorphosis.

Firstly, I'll talk about Purr.
This novel's title is very beautiful in Japanese.  In this story, hero called his cat's purr "nekonari". this is story's title.
The Chinese characters mean cat and sound comprise the word "nekonari"
indeed the words signifying cat's purr are not exist in Japanese. But this word "nekonari" make people associate cat's purr clearly.
I think this title is very literary expression.
I think books have good title is very good works. I attracted this title.
This title should attract people love cat.
When I read it, I was amazed by description of human and cat.
Author draws old man and cat's life not care for each other, but as if they are dissolved into one.
text express hero's feeling that " Toji (hero) consent Mon (cat), Mon assent him, their everything dissolve ambiguously and feel easy.
Toji think he has never share this feeling with people.
He infers "if preceding words, relation probably lose something important instead."
In this story, author wrote youth is the thing, beautiful, but excessive and useless.
Losing youth, Toji loses Hope. He want something hope even if it is like a will-o'-the wisp.
He feels he is proceeding toward death. He think it is inevitable, but also dread it in his mind.
His cat also go to death. But the time comes faster than his.
although Mon is weakening slowly, this cat lives as it is.
this way to life cheer up him. He receive message from cat "it's all right, let's go a little more".
Cat can't speak, so it may be not true.
But I think this is the answer that their lives made him reached.
I learned how to be non-verbal relation.

I want to talk about another two stories, but I haven't enough time. I have another class preparation.
See you next week.
