Safenet Sentinel Dongle

soon end ... Malorie

Okay, I admit it is becoming difficult to want to leave!

Friday I was in Kyoto and Nara for shopping. At night I was at the restaurant with some members of the lab (not all, but the main ones, ie those with whom I spoke were there). Well, this time around, I assured my photos, then place the presentation:



- Left, Yamato Ohtani, he will me helped in the technical part of my job. He is super nice, but it has some difficulty understanding when they speak English. Still, I appreciated his constant good humor, even when I annoyed (you know me ^_^). It was also he who saved my pc when he no longer wanted Demare.

- In the center, Yoko. I met her at the beginning of my stay. Very nice, but it is very difficult to speak English, I also believe that she was disappointed not to speak.

- Right, Doi. It is with people who surrounded me when I arrived. It has mainly been the driver. Almost no English so I could never talk to.

- Left, Mr. Toda, my sponsor. Young, eh? It made me a shock when I met him. It has been 32 years. It's nice that it is not too old, because it is much more "cool". I really had a good relationship with him, he never put pressure and has always valued my work (wrongly?).

- In the middle left, uh ... I forgot her name. He does not speak English at all!

- Right center, Kisaki. A very nice, but I always feel uncomfortable in his presence. He has a stuttering problem which I never understand his English and I have to repeat. And he looks very stuck. But it was he who organized the celebration in my honor when I got there, he also agreed to be our driver. It also tries to talk to me when he sees me, so it's a person who allows me to socialize and feel accepted, and I am very grateful for his kindness.

- left, Rafael. Nothing to say. ^ _ ^ As a reminder, this one comes from Panama. It's great because we had no difficulty communicating in English. Here at the restaurant, saw the people who do not speak English, everybody spoke Japanese so luckily he was there for me the conversation from time to time.

- Left, Chie. What to say about Chie? When I see I can not help but think "I love this girl!". She is super energetic, always smiling and is always ready to help.

- In the middle, Nakamura-san. He too was part of "Home Team". It is too funny! Obviously he loves to eat, he has completed all the dishes from the table! He was kind enough to lend me his electric stove and curtains for the 4 months of my stay. It helped me a lot, I am very grateful for that, and also because it's one of those who framed me most when I arrived. By cons after I did not see during these almost four months, and he did not specifically seemed to want to communicate with me, despite his good English.

The group photo:

Pour rappel, les noms dans l'ordre de gauche à droite de haut en bas: Kisaki, Doi, Nakamura, Raphael, Yoko, Chi, Malorie ^^, Mr Toda, Yamato, ???.

Après le resto, Chie m'avait invitée chez elle avec Yoko.

(le sourire de Chie, c'est tout le temps comme ça !).
Vous remarquerez au passage que l'appart de Chie a l'air bien. Et il l'est ! En plus, même l'extérieur donne bien, c'est une facade dans le style immeuble de riches américains. She pays 50,000 yen per month, which currently amounts to 363 €! Suffice to say that I really hallucinating when she told me that. Unfortunately for her, she will move next year in Tokyo to begin work. Indeed, she had to find his job before finishing his studies and it's done. By cons, Yoko seeks always work in Tokyo as well. When I was home, I took the opportunity to open the gifts that Mr. Toda had given me. It was super generous. In addition, a man who chooses tastefully, it's rare! I let you admire:




plastics and cosmetics as well practical and super memories of Japan:




Thus a card game with the famous places of Japan and a block-shaped kimono memo:


Chie and Yoko, they, gave me a cd:


is "The Best of Jazzin ' for Ghibli. "As the title suggests, it revised versions of music from films of Studio Ghibli. Well, I like jazz versions but I'm fairly crazy for me really happy and the CD cover is beautiful, it makes a great souvenir of their units!

Chie really does not want me to return, she wanted to do many things with me before I left but his schedule is full. It would really come see me in Belgium. Snif, it breaks my heart when she says nice things like that! But hey, that's life ... Finally, to thank, and Yoko too, I bought them a small gift. I had already offered a small strap Chie GSM Nara is the only one she has religiously to his laptop!

short, sad about the move! Today, I returned to shop in Kyoto. I followed a particular route by my guide and I had already done with parents: it's really great. It is a journey through all the old parts of Kyoto, pedestrian, with lots of souvenir shops. In addition, this time, I found a part that I missed last time: Ishibei-koji, a street of hotels and restaurants in old buildings. Y'avait not a cat and more! Here is a picture, others are on Picasa:

So what I bought?

- a totoro plush keychain

- another sucker to hang with the back windshield of my car:

- a bento box : (sorry, Joranne, Lilly, I'll copy!)

- a portfolio:

Besides, do you know that we see many objects with owls in Japan? I wondered why. The réponse m'a été donnée au 100yen-shop: Hibou se dit fukuro en japonais, et c'est prononcé de la même manière que "pas de soucis" ("no trouble"). Donc évidemment les japonais pensent que les hiboux portent chance et spécialement aux étudiants qui, comme les hiboux, travaillent la nuit. ^_^ (fin de la minute intelligente)

- je suis retournée à la boutique de bijoux de Kyomizudera alors j'ai craqué sur la nouvelle collection (oui, j'ai honte...):

D'ailleurs, j'ai eu une jeune vendeuse parlant anglais qui m'a fait la causette et m'a aidé à acheter dans le magasin. ^ _ ^ Anyway, thank you Joranne for its harassment of Japanese without it I would never have discovered Loft, a store that sells everything where I found some things cheaper elsewhere Ghibli and sells beautiful bento boxes and lots of other things!
