Yuki Notes

I thought that I want to enter the graduate school of teacher education. I knew it is impossible, considering the probability of having a child in the next few years. But I can do almost what I hope to at university without belonging to an organization. So, I live as an independent scholar and a practitioner from now.

Last night, I talked with a professor of my old school using Zoom, for the first time in more than 10 years.

I'm still excited.

I predict that my work and life style will change significantly over the next few years.  It's up to me, whether I will become independent leader or follower. To live a better life, I have to sustain the efforts for developing my ability.  Especially,  it is important for me accomplishing that once I decide to do something. My goal for this year is as follows. 1. Better relationship I’ll make a habit of regular housework for the possibility of childbirth.  2. Health maintenance To make the body can move rapidly and long. I want to get 2nd-dan first half of 2022, so I practice aikido 7 times a month.

Although there was a sad event, I am happy to able to understand her feelings, sense of values and body. It means we could know each other little by little. I went for a complete physical in September, and had a colonoscopy at the end of October. The results of the test was not extremely negative. But there were descriptions of "low grade adenoma, Group 3" and "tubular adenoma with mild atypia" on the medical certificate. I knew that I have to take care of my health. Despite the interruption by coronavirus's shock, I could continue to practice aikido on average once a week. It seems to have a positive effect on my mind and body. I went on a trip for a week in summer vacation. I walked about halfway of the Fifty-three Stages on the Tokaido. I want to try again. I have been studying pedagogy an...

I make it a rule to go cafe to study every Sunday morning. It's a good habit for my future. I spent time together with my wife in the last few weeks.

An air of refreshing morning, a birdcall in the afternoon, remind me the rest of my life and things I should do.

I woke up early today. The time is most precious resources. I use it to make excellent career in my 40s.
