Blog restarted: Business trip to Tokyo and Mariya six months old

I have been happy but sleepy with Mariya. These days, I got used to the situation, so I restart my blog. This morning, I had a beef-bowl breakfast at Yoshinoya near Kofu Station; the price of a bowl was lowered to 280 yen because of the increase in beef imported from USA after the BSE issue. Taste was good. Then I took a train first to a company in Kanda, Tokyo, to discuss a computer simulation of the results of my project.  It seems that we will be able to write a good joint paper.  The company is now improving their own simulation program using our data.   They are planning … Continue reading

Farewell-and-Welcome party

One of the office workers is leaving, and two new workers have arrived to the institute. So we had a farewell-and-welcome party.

The party was held at “Sennenno Utage (Parties of A thousand years)” on the second floor of Yoshinoya in front of Kofu station. I like the name, which remains me of “Cien Años de Soledad (One hundred years of solitute)” of García Márquez. The foods were good. The price was reasonable.    The woman leaving the office will start working in an accountant office near the institute.  I have worked with her three and a half … Continue reading

Business trip again to Tokyo

Again a meeting in Tokyo for my project. I had a beef bowl at Yoshinoya in front of Kofu station.   Then I took trains to Kanda, Tokyo. Researchers from four companies got together, and with me, discussed about a start-up  cell.  We came up to a tentative design. The meeting ended at 4 PM. After the meeting, I visited a company taking care of my studio in Nakaochiai to say hello. This company is not for the whole building but only dealing with the tenant and my compartment. In my studio, a girl student lives, who experienced the earthquake.  Her mother wrote to me that she is doing just … Continue reading

Business trip to Tokyo

I arrived at Kofu station at 6:15 AM by my motor cycle. For early breakfast, I took a beef bowl at Yoshinoya in front of the station. Then I took a bus to Tokyo. The bus was late by an hour because of a traffic jam. I arrived at the conference site in Odaiba at 10:30 PM.    Our institute director carried out a 40-minute speech.  I helped him with the poster presentation.  Our presentations ended with no problem. I took a bus back to Kofu at 5:30 PM from Shinjuku. It arrived at 7:40 PM at Kofu station. I took a motor bike back home. Natalia brought Russian bread from Russia … Continue reading
