Movies
I love suspense, horror movies. But I basically love watching movies in any genres. I like the feeling of knowing something new through the screen, feeling of new experience which I will not be able to do in my life. Movies make me happy and fulfilled.
Television
enjoy watching tv programs ever since i came back from the state. kekkon dekinai otoko (a man who can't marry) is my recent favorite drama. i also watch many american tv dramas -- csi, w/o a trace, alias, prison break :)
Books
- essays by shibata motoyuki, murakami haruki
- novels by paul auster, ogawa yoko, banana (sometimes)
- mangas by satonaka machiko, hasegawa machiko

Hi Maki! Just wanted to wish you a very happy birthday! Although I think in Japan, your birthday was yesterday, but its still your birthday here in Texas!! :-)Hope you had a great time!!! Lots of hugs!!! Miss you my friend!! :-(
Hi Maki :-) it was so good to hear from you. I have also been really busy with school. I am graduating in May, have been doing research and I have been going to school year round! Its very busy and tireing. Glad to hear you're doing okay. I also wished we lived closer. I've missed you. Hopefully one day I will go visit you! Take care talk to you later! :-)
HELLO! How is beautiful Kyoto? And how are you? Well, it's been a long time since we spoke... how have you been? I've been studing alot lately, uni is started to get harder and harder. But I live in Gothenburg now and I enjoy it alot. Is school going along fine? Take care, ALOT! Lots of love! Hugs!
Hello again! I'm late again :( How are you doing? Fine I hope :D I'm doing fine. School has started and I'm going to move to Gothenburg soon, very soon, on sunday actually. So, you liked my photos, did you watch all of them? Well, I have others as well but it's to many already. Oh, i would love to visit kyoto again, i loved it. I need to got to Japan soon again really!! How is school? I'm glad that you want to visit Sweden some day :) Hope soon!!
Hello Maki! Well, I'm not that good of a responder either. So, what have you been up to lately? Yes, it was very diffrent to be in Japan! But I must confess that I liked Japan more than Sweden :s. I had a chance to see diffrent parts in Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka, Nara, Nikko, Mijayima, Hiroshima and Koyasan. Oh, I'll start school the last day in August so it's soon. I've already started to read some for our next course. And this time I'll move to Gothenburg, not so far from Borås were I study. How did your finals go? Hope very well! We need to meet eachother some time. I think I want to travel to Japan soon again :) else I can show you Sweden some day! Take Care! HUGS!
Hi Maki! How are you doing? I hope you are doing very well. I'm so sad that I had to leave japan, I really enjoyed myself very much. Too bad that we didn't had a chanse to meet. Hope your cold didn't last for too long. Now I'm sitting and searching for a place to live in Gothenburg for my next semester but I have no luck on my side at all :( hopefully I'll find a flat or a room. And I'm working everyday now, but next week I'll have a day off. I got to run, Take care, HUGS!
I'm glad you finally got my letter,and you liked the gifts, and sorry it took so long. Hope you enjoy them. :-) Hows Japan this time of year, Texas has been having weird weather. Somedays its hot somedays its cold but oh well!!! :-) Take care talk to you soon :-)
