It is a fabulous story above about how Japanese are not good at English. 
I cannot believe my friend has been struggling for more than three years to get right score for an English exam.
She has decent nursing experience and just needs a bit more English skills.
It is very shame.

Some of Japanese are not interested in overseas at all and want to stay whole their life in Japan. I cannot believe it.
Japanese should have a look world widely and need to know their common sense is not the best one in the world. However I can encourage Japanese culture to other countries because it is so nice, but is is not the best as well.

Today I went to play tennis and met Pat (Nile's wife). She said that New Zealand schools need to invite more Japanese teacher and the students need to know about how different Japanese culture and New Zealand one. 
Because New Zealand people do not know how Japanese live in their dairy life, for example "How to get into the house." The answer is "Take your shoes off the entrance."
I introduced about how do we wash dishes. (We do not keep the water in a sink, instead we use running water. It might be waste the water.)

I am always interested in how and what do other countries people do in their dairy life. I know a litter bit but I have not known a lot yet.
It is interesting is not it!?
I would like to know about international food too, or clothes, yes, there are culture. We could never know if we just travel around short time.

I am so tired last few weeks. Because I went to bed after 12am. last few weeks I think. I try to go to bed early.
But if I can afford to do more things I am glad about that. Finally I want more than 24 hours in a day! Maybe every ten years I get a funny mental sick?, named "I don't want to waste any time syndrome" 
It looks like my mother. She had sometimes high tension I remembered.. but not often like me. Mine is worse.

Once I start to do something that is VERY interesting thing, It is hardly stop.
I need to calm down.. I am going to follow my darling. However he is not a strong leader. We might decide everything together. I like it.
