3 days holiday

I'm spending this 3 days holidays(Sat. Sun. Vernal Equinox Day) in our home reluxly. I wanted to go around but last Tuesday my son got influenza-B and my wife got same last Thursday.  My son was recoverd and we played catch at near park but she is suffering flu plus otitis media so I'm doing cook and housework. But I can tide up our home, doing what I wanted to do(setting of computer, tablet, buying vegetable garden's goods, etc so it is good holidays for me. Tiding up our surroundings is good because doing it also makes myself simple, calm down my heart.

Fear of uncontrolable body

Image
About 1week, I heavily lost my health. Last sundsy and monday, I had a fever (took 1 day absent of work) and recovered on tuesday morning, work 2 days(feeling strangeness of my digestive system from tuesday evening), then suddenly my body condition was deteriorated on thursday early morning, down from tuesday to sunday. Especially last 4 days was very hard experience because my body temperature was not decreased, couldn't move my body and had no desire to eat. In my ordinary case, taking 1day rest turned out to be normal condition. But this case it didn't. I checked 3 hospital, internal medicine, gastrolintestinal medicine, but couldn't find bad thing. ( it might be that it is virus type fever and was not infected with influenza, I checked twice, monday and suturday ! ) For last 1 month, I became sick 3 times after light exercise then recovered 1-2days rest and doctor said that virus wouldn't be died under body temperature 37.5C so it might be that they kept e

Try AWS(2)

Image
 As  writing  here ,  recently I'm starting AWS (AmazonWebService) and it is additional memo. (1) Accessing AWS from smartphone  Today I want to access it from Starbacs Cafe via starbacs'wifi. I brought tablet and smartphone and I can access AWS website but can't connect ssh to amazon because I didn't install my secret key to my tablet and smartphone. So coming back to my home, I tried ssh on my smartphone. But my app "Android Terminal Emulator" don't handle ssh, so I install ssh client App "ConnectBot". Seeing t his article and finally succed in connecting ssh. It is amazing to access IaaS by smartphone. Using these things, personal computer and smartphone are almost same because these are just an terminal equipment to cloud. If they can connect to internet, they don't need to have high functions. (2) Studying using OCW  I didn't go to AWS seminar so I searched good internet tutorial materials and find OCW " Startup Engineering

Potato farming

Image
Today, we planed potatos. I bought potatos 3kg (750yen) and cut these potatos in half. Before planting, we put ashes to potato's cutting planes and planted them. I always bought potatos about 1 or 2 kg so 3 kg is a little too much for our farm. There are half of entire spaces left but all was used for potstos. It took about 2 hours for farming, tired..

Try AWS

Image
This weekend, I tried to sing up AWS(Amazon Web Service). I wanted to do it, but hesitated to do. One reason is it needs credic card and second reason is it seemed difficult to do. At first, I planed to take part in free seminar around Osaka, but after netserfing internet, I found that it was not so difficult*1 to sign up, so I tried today. It took about 1 hour to finished. It might be about 10 min if there were no trouble. I first select Tokyo machine to make instance, but changed my mind to default machine (oregon, USA) because it was cheaper than tokyo. After finished AWS setting, I connected my AWS by terminal. At first I couldn't connect*2, but somehow I could. Then installing Apache, and finnaly I can access my server (below). I was deeply moved when I saw this screen ! It is good period now because I can have my own server with no cost and can use it anywhere ! I accessed my college's server via telephone line when I was college student (late 80' to early 90') an

David bowie -Blackstar

I like david bowie so I was shocked of his news of deat. But after hearing the new, I watched this video and couldn't finish watching. It's awful, genius songs for recent some years. It's full of death image and if I watched it before knowing his death news, I might have only been inpressed with strangeness of this music. I can't describe this music in a proper words but it show me that there are many possibility for music left and feel thriling for a future of music.

Japanese sake (iso zhiman)

Recently I like japanese alchol(sake). Good tasted japanese sake tastes excellent with cold. I like my hometown's sake "i so-zhiman " which is mean to be prouding seashore. Before, sake at shizuoka is not famous but about decades ago, shizuoka yeast was invented and sake at shizuoka become to be famous aroud japan. I bought it when I went back to shizuoka this winter. It costs 1300 yen(about $10). The taste of it is like a wine.

Winter holiday has been passing away and today was last day of 1 week holiday. And we went to hatsumode at Narita shrine near our home. Going there is our routine work because we bought good luck charms and old charms was returned to the shrine and buy new charms.  At first, we made an offering of money.

UNIQLO

Today is 2 Jan. and yesterday & today are new year's bargain days of UNIQLO so we went to UNIQLO. This wear is ¥2980 which is ¥5980 at normal price. It is not feather type, polyester one but polyester strings are curled up and they can hold air so it can keep warm. Recently, we can get good things in a cheap prices.And UNIQLO's quality is very well so I like. But we can get wear at ¥2980 in such good quality, amazing.

Role of school

Today , I read the article  about secret of nada-highschool elite education system. The article itself is intersting, but I feel a little strange for it. I think education should be free for everybody, not special people. If they want to learn somethings, education system support them.It is true education, I think. Education should not be for a person who study hard. It should be equal to everyone if they want to becaome studying.  And second reason I feel strange is that this article said that this school teach student to think rather than learn. Of course, it is good thing and is true, but personally I didn't like it. I didn't want school to force something to me. In my highschool (shizuoka highschool), school is very liberal and allmost every student didn't expect school lecture. But most good thing is that there are many talented student gathering and that stimulate each other. Recently, we can learn everywhere using internet + basic usage of English
