Wedding Special

Hi there.
Long time no see. First of all, I must say....

Happy Wedding Mr. KS

Mr. KS is a good friend of mine who lives in India. Yesterday was his wedding reception. I was supposed to be there to celebrate it, but unfortunatelly I could not manage to visit India.

I saw some weddings in India when I was working in Delhi, that was some posh ones in the hotel yard. It was quite impressive as even two elefants were there to celebrate.

But let's face it. It would be 100 times more interesting and enjoyable, if it was a wedding for someone who I know. So it was the greatest regret that I could not be there. I have asked him to let me know well in advance as it could be tricky to organize trip to India. So he gave me about 6 months notice. He did what he should do and I could not do my part, therefore I feel bad.

There were 3 reason that I could not fly to India this time.

1. Flight ticket was too expensive than I presumed
2. Preparation (visa for India etc) was delayed as I was busy everyday
3. Something I do not want to mention in details here happend arround myself and I was (still am) busy trying to sort out

I just very much hope that it was the most wonderful wedding for him.

So my holiday is still valid and I ended up staying in Ireland whole week during my holiday. The weather is awful and cold and windy here. Why should I be here instead having a party in warm happy India?

I do not have many good news recently. While I was whinging like above, I received a letter from my school where I was studying in the evenings.

Dear Hidekis, I am happy to attach a statement of the successful result of your reecnt examination....

Hideki got a Diploma (for web diveloping)!!

This was the only good news recently, but I am quite happy. As I am hoping to work for IT related job in the future, this was a first step for me, and I passed it.

Banzai!

Hmm, I am now more and more motivated. What do I want to learn next? I will probably take a course for either Computer Graphics or JAVA language.

Well, not much more news to say at this moment.

Take care all..

Happy new year 2007

I hope the year 2007 will treat all of you nicely.

Hello from Dublin. Today is 1st January. The weather in Dublin is absolutely horrible (almost always, anyway). It is definitely not the sign of whatever comes in 2007. Just relax.

According to Analitics, there were 3 people visited my site on the new years eve. Wow. I know it is such a small number of people, but I was expected "none".

Well, anyway I will continue to update my diary from time to time. Not as often as my Japanese page. Why? Because ever since I changed my job in May, I became extremely busy (excuse, excuse).

My page is owned by google as you might have guessed. Good things about google page and google blog is that there are no banner ads, and also no limit of file memory. Google will probably run until I die, thats another good point to have one's own page (sometimes some free sever itself disapears overnight).

Now negative thing about this service is that there is not much freedom to do a lot of things on your site. For example, you can not upload files via FTP which is critical for me. Or there is not much pre-loaded feature such as calender, labels (category), PHP capability.

So I was thinking to rent a server and to leave google soon.

Recently I found a post on bloggers page.

"We’re excited about the new version of Blogger, both for what it can do now (which also includes access control for blogs and better input fields for post dates) and what we’ll add to it in the future, now that we have a new, stable, powerful infrastructure to work with. We’re done with “beta,” but we’re far from done with the new Blogger."

...they can read my thoughts??

I have already got a new sever, but never mind. I like overall Google project. So this page will stay the same another while...
