Just outside my office a student and I
spotted a child`s coat hanging on the
wire fence and I inquired about what
the sign said…
*
Otoshimono (something dropped)
*
I thought WOW. I have witnessed this
courtesy, only in Japan. It`s wonderful
to see that there are still caring people
around willing to help out strangers!

Picture taken in Brisbane City, Australia..Dec 2009
A new walkway from South Bank Parklands to the city.
(I thought it looked like a big yacht without sails!)
*
When you fight against the wind your ship will
never sail in.
*
Release and surrender your tender to the provocative
winds.
*
Feel your wholesome spirit bouncing on those sails.
*
Patience will take you to New Horizons without avail.

Eye of the Tiger

Filed under: topics英会話名古屋 — clarissa 英会話 名古屋 Heart to Heart at 4:29 pm on Saturday, January 23, 2010

Maybe it is the beginning of the year and
everyone is running around not leaving
enough time for their feet to be grounded?
*
Slow down! Look around and see with the
Eye of  the Tiger!
*
Look after the people around you that
look after you.
*
Don`t take them for granted because one
day they may up and depart leaving you
with a feeling of emptiness and dishearten!
*
Focus on what feels right and don`t waste
your time on unnecessary egotistical drill.
Use your will wisely and apply it with skill.
*
Throw away what didn`t work yesterday
and leave your doorway open to new
beginnings that will manifest from therein!

THE UPANISHADS

From the unreal lead me to the real.

From the darkness lead me to light.

From death lead me to immortality.

宇宙服の秘密

Filed under: topics英会話名古屋 — 英会話 名古屋 Heart to Heart at 12:21 pm on Wednesday, January 20, 2010

野口さんの等身大パネルがあり、よく見てみると、宇宙服の胸元の文字が逆にかいてあります。
てっきり、左右反転した写真家と思ったら、それであってると聞きました。
宇宙服を着ると、自分の胸元が見えないので、手についてるミラーで胸元を確認するから、反転文字になっているとか。
確かにNASAの文字は反転してない。





宇宙からみたオーロラ展

Filed under: topics英会話名古屋 — 英会話 名古屋 Heart to Heart at 12:00 am on Tuesday, January 19, 2010

宇宙からみたオーロラ展を見にきました。

宇宙飛行士がスペースシャトルや宇宙ステーションから撮ったオーロラと、先日セントラルパークで写真展を行った、中垣さんが地上から撮ったオーロラとのコラボです。

1月いっぱい、新宿東口のさくらやの裏のタカノビル四階でやってますので、東京にこられたらぜひいってみてください。





Friendship

Filed under: topics英会話名古屋 — clarissa 英会話 名古屋 Heart to Heart at 4:40 pm on Monday, January 18, 2010



Friendships are made and friends are traded.

To be aware of what they mean in your life is to capture the know.

It doesn`t matter if meetings are brief.

One should always be grateful of being enhanced in those intricate

moments of the tornado.

New Year`s Resolution

Filed under: topics英会話名古屋 — clarissa 英会話 名古屋 Heart to Heart at 7:11 am on Friday, January 15, 2010



Full moon on New Year`s Eve at my sister`s home in Australia.

I didn`t make a new year`s resolution for 2010 and since coming

back to Japan I`ve asked my students and other people` if they did…

Many of them have said that they wanted to start or do something

that they`ve  never done before and it got me to thinking about

what I would like to do…

I thought that I would like to continue on the path of my inner

spiritual discovery; help people to the best of my ability, let go of

things that I can`t change, love like I`ve never loved before and

live everyday as if it were my last!

What is your new year`s resolution?

Please share with us at Heart to Heart English Club.

今のブーム? ハッ天堂のクリームパン

Filed under: topics英会話名古屋 — 英会話 名古屋 Heart to Heart at 7:38 pm on Wednesday, January 13, 2010


東京に行くと、いくつかの駅で見かけるこのお店。

どこもたくさん人が並んでます。

なんでも、2009年度のはなまるおめざNo1だったそうです。

さっそく並んでみました。

ガーン、このパン、クリームパンのくせに3時間ぐらいしか持たないとのこと。

並んだのに、あきらめました。

Snow in Nagoya

I just said to my friend yesterday that
being cold only; is pretty boring but when
it snows there is definitely something
euphoric and pituresque about snow
falling. How do you feel when it snows?

足長おじさん

Filed under: topics英会話名古屋 — 英会話 名古屋 Heart to Heart at 6:04 am on Tuesday, January 12, 2010


今の時期は、太陽が一番低い時期。

ふと、影を見てみると、足がとってもなガーーーーくなっていました。

角度の問題からでしょうね。上半身は普通で、足だけが長い。(^^;)

Movie Reviews

Filed under: topics英会話名古屋 — clarissa 英会話 名古屋 Heart to Heart at 6:29 pm on Friday, January 8, 2010

Image654.jpg
Coming back to Japan on JAL gave me
the opportunity to watch 4 movies!!
*
I love watching movies because I always
marvel at the coincidences and messages
that seem to hit me into new concrete
realisations.
*
`THIS IS IT` (MICHAEL JACKSON) was
the first movie I saw and it brought
back lots of memories of when I was
growing up with my sisters and brother.
How we listened to music and sang; and
tried to mimic his dance moves!
My mum, sisters and I actually went to
see Micheal Jackson in concert in 1987.
It was sensational entertainment!
*
The next movie I saw is called` SURROGATES`
starring Bruce Willis who is in the first picture
on this blog. A very interesting show because
it kind of presents a world in which we are
living now and how we as humans have moved
away from being natural. It depicts all the
unecessary trauma that we go through in trying
to defy nature in order to live in a so called
`perfect world`. I recommend  this to anyone
who is lost and in search of the truth..
*
LISTEN TO MY HEART is the English title of
a Japanese movie about  Mai Kubota who is
a dj on a radio station that gives advice to her
listeners but doesn`t seem to practice it herself.
This screenplay brought back memories of when
I was a dj for radio i and how I would have loved
to have had a programme like that. The travel
show that I did was special and I loved reliving
the places that I had been to through the radio
but I used to think how terrific it would be to
have an access for the public to call up and talk
about things from their heart.(this is the second
picture of the Japanese actor in the above).
*
LOVE HAPPENS is the last film I watched and
it was another special story about a young
handsome man who helps people through his
positive book that he has written about surviving
after losing someone in death. I could identify
with it because not only in death but when
relationships come to an end; it can signify death
and the adventure and growth in living every
day as a new one after you lose someone dear to you.
Being alive  is certainly a heavenly gift no matter how
difficult your situation may be. Remember to live
life as if there were no tomorrow!

干物で一杯

Filed under: topics英会話名古屋 — 英会話 名古屋 Heart to Heart at 2:37 pm on Tuesday, January 5, 2010

先日、干物が美味しい店に連れて行ってもらいました。
覚王山を少し入ったところにある穴場な店です。
七輪で干物を焼くんですが、独特の甘みがたまらないですね。
この日は、焼酎といただきました。

Enlightenment!

Filed under: topics英会話名古屋 — clarissa 英会話 名古屋 Heart to Heart at 11:02 am on Sunday, January 3, 2010



This is so beautiful. When you truly find the love inside of you you just

want to get up and sing it to the world because you start seeing through

the mystical eye that sees beauty in everything.

ハートな島

Filed under: topics英会話名古屋 — 英会話 名古屋 Heart to Heart at 11:06 pm on Saturday, January 2, 2010



Heart to Heart English Clubにぴったりな島がありました!

こんな珊瑚礁に行ってみたいですね。

調べてみたら、その名もハートリーフというんですね。

グレートバリアリーフにあるそうです。


周りはこんな感じになってるんですね。

もしかして、クラリッサは行ったことあるのかな?


ちなみにこちらは、クロアチアにある島とのこと。

新婚旅行におすすめですね。

僕は、もういけませんが・・・

Full Moon

Filed under: topics英会話名古屋 — clarissa 英会話 名古屋 Heart to Heart at 9:37 am on Friday, January 1, 2010

Wishing you a Fabulous New Year and may
all your relationships with the people in your
life be full of love and good will!~
*
Last night was a wonderful night with family
and friends. We had a special night together
sitting on the balcony overlooking the luscious
green topography. Of course there was lots
of food, wine, noise, music, dancing and love.
*
We had a full moon which was also extra symbolic
because it made me think of how lucky I am with
all my relationships because they are all full of
magnificent revelations and unconditonal education.
*
Thank you to all of you !!!

A Happy New Year!

それではみなさま、ことしも、よろしくお願いいたします。
