    • About interview part 2

      • About "Interviews" Part 1

        Japanese magazines often feature interviews. While I generally skim through foreign magazines like Rolling Stone, The New Yorker, Esquire, and Life, I don't recall seeing many interviews in those magazines. There might have been one or two,

          What's so great about Julio Iglesias anyway? (Part 2)

          The question of why Julio Iglesias has gained such fervent popularity is worth considering. Of course, his looks play a role. He has the typical face of a foolish, cheesy playboy. Additionally, his overwhelming publicity is a factor. Howeve

          About Being Kind to Girls

          Lately, I've been thinking a lot about how difficult it is to be kind to girls. I'm turning 34 years old this year, and I believe I've had my fair share of experiences with girls. As I grow older, I've come to realize just how challenging

          A Story About Dictionaries2 -Murakami Asahi-do -Haruki Murakami-

          Regarding Tofu 4 -Murakami Asahi-do -Haruki Murakami-

          Have you ever thought about the best way to enjoy tofu? I pondered this question when I had some free time. There is only one answer: after a romantic encounter. Well, let me clarify from the beginning that this is all purely imaginary. It

          Regarding Tofu 3 -Murakami Asahi-do -Haruki Murakami-

          In Paris, housewives don't stock up on bread. They go to the bakery each time they need bread, and if there's any leftover, they throw it away. I believe that's how meals are supposed to be, regardless of what others may say. The same goes

           In the previous entries, I persistently wrote about ants, but this time, it's about lizards. My house is located in a rather (or rather, quite) rural area, so there are plenty of lizards around. Lizards, from their appearance alone, are no

            In regards to ants (Part 2): In my previous discussion, I talked about how amazing ants are, but on the other hand, when you closely observe ants for a while, they start to become somewhat creepy. The reason for this fear is that they liv
