the trip to see my past
i went to aquarium called marine world to see one of my alumni thirty years ago at our high school days
her name is noriko ishii who has been famous for playing 30 handbells at the same time and i went to see her playing the handbells on this christmas eve
she pretended not to see me and not to know me who i am
we were in a same room for a year so she must know me
yet she tried to set me apart from herself
but i could see her apparently upset, embarrassed..eventually she was able to overcome her given situation and moment
her performance was aired on tv thirty minutes later it was performed
my trip to see my past was over
no one can change our past but anyone can change our future
she seems to look forward to seeing only future

Date on line
My Tagged record shows now my wife Phoebe and I matched sometime before we made friendship and my yahoo account shows she sent me an invitation to me whether to be her friend on the 2nd of October, and I apparently accepted her invitaion before long.
On the 15th of October I mailed to her in Tagged to notice her that I intend to send her email under yahoo account name, which is different from the name in Tagged so that she may not confuse. I knew her yahoo account in her site in Tagged.
On the 19th of October we had a chat for the first time in Yahoo messenger with web camera. We talked seeing one another for a short time.
I was really struck by her incessant desire to aspiration not only her beauty in appearance and two days after on the 21st of October I made a proposal of marriage in a message in Tagged.
On the 22nd of October in a second chat in Yahoo messenger she accepted my proposal of marriage.
We have been usually on line in Yahoo messenger with web camera at 6 pm to 7 almost every evening since then, before and after we got married on the 30th of November and we make a phone call sometimes about a rate of one time in two days.

Lyrics to Sono Speed De (english Translation) :
At that Speed:
I kicked off my mud covered shoes
In my damp room
On a night when I lost a small story
A spell was put on me
hitotsu no sonzai, hitori no tenshiwatashi ni te wo futteita
One being, one angel
You had waved your hand to me
You'll warm my frozen body
Like sweet chocolate
Let's hurry and put out the lamp
I'll entrust my body to this night which will soon end
There I am in the mirror
The light which rolls over the wings of sadness goes towards the moon
And projects my heart, like stardust
It scatters and breaks
At that speed
From http://www.lyricsmania.com/sono_speed_de_english_translation_lyrics_brilliant_green_the.html
With nothing to do, night and day
I yawn and cry
But that was without timidness
A demon sensitive to the cold lives in my heart
If this spell is broken
In the morning I'll climb one flight of stairs on this stairway
I'll put out my hand and feel the wind
I'll feel the raindrops and I'll break the mirror
Before my heart gets dull
Yes, I'll throw my voice away, this sad voice
I'll continue and earnestly take a breath
At the speed of light
On a whim I aim for the stars
I decorate my blue white tears
With ordinary words, they float
At that speed
Like a dream, on a whim I aim for the stars
I decorate my blue white tears
With ordinary words, they float
At that speed
At that speed

hitotsu no sonzai, hitori no tenshiwatashi ni te wo futteita
One being, one angel
You had waved your hand to me
You'll warm my frozen body
Like sweet chocolate
Let's hurry and put out the lamp
I'll entrust my body to this night which will soon end
There I am in the mirror
The light which rolls over the wings of sadness goes towards the moon
And projects my heart, like stardust
It scatters and breaks
At that speed
From http://www.lyricsmania.com/sono_speed_de_english_translation_lyrics_brilliant_green_the.html
With nothing to do, night and day
I yawn and cry
But that was without timidness
A demon sensitive to the cold lives in my heart
If this spell is broken
In the morning I'll climb one flight of stairs on this stairway
I'll put out my hand and feel the wind
I'll feel the raindrops and I'll break the mirror
Before my heart gets dull
Yes, I'll throw my voice away, this sad voice
I'll continue and earnestly take a breath
At the speed of light
On a whim I aim for the stars
I decorate my blue white tears
With ordinary words, they float
At that speed
Like a dream, on a whim I aim for the stars
I decorate my blue white tears
With ordinary words, they float
At that speed
At that speed

the brilliant green - at that speed lyric
doro darake no kutsu, kettobashita
shimetta heya no naka
chiisana monogatari wo, nakushita yorumahou ni kakerareta
hitotsu no sonzai, hitori no tenshiwatashi ni te wo futteita
kogoeta karada wo, atatamete kureru
amai chokoraetto
isoide rampu wo fuki kesou
kagiri aru kono, sekai ni mi wo, yudanete
kagami no naka ni watashi ga iru...
kanashimi, no tsubasa wo, korogaru hikari wa tsuki no hou e
kono mune, wo utsushite, hoshikuzu no you ni chiribametekowashite
sono Speed de
suru koto mo nakute yoru mo hiru mo
akubi shitari naitari shite
sore wa mou ikujinashi de
samugari no akuma ga mune ni sunderu
moshi kono mahou ga tokeru no nara
