Typhoon and Iwate National Athlete Meets

   

The typhoon No.10 aka Lionrock damaged Japan so badly in August 30, 2016.
It has been over month since then, but because of lack of volunteers, there are still many places need help to clean up and rebuild in Iwate prefecture.
Plus, there is Iwate National Athlete Meets (Iwate Kokutai) now and many people are supporting the Meets, but the typhoon affected areas.
 
What shocked me was the big sign says like "Let's support kokutai, National Athletic Meets" on collapsed building in Iwaizumi where was affected by typhoon the most in Iwate. That was heartbreaking for me.  There are many people who lost their houses and family members, and some people are still missing.  How could they even think those typhoon victim people would be motivated to support Iwate National Athlete Meets? I was very sad and angry at the same time.
　
I do not support Iwate National Athlete Meets, but I support typhoon victims instead.
That's why I have been going Iwaizumi for volunteering during Iwate National Athlete Meets.
 
If you could too give your support to those typhoon victims, please help them.
Iwaizumi disaster volunteer center Omoto opens 8:30 - 15:00.
Maps to get there is as below.  Thank you for your kindness.

I got banned from facebook AGAIN for a week.

Facebook banned me of posting and sharing on timeline, sending messages, and like button for any post for a week.  Right now, what I can do on facebook is only to login. 　  　  　　 　 I asked what I did wrong to get banned to the help desk, but they have not replied me anything yet.  　 What I did right before I had got banned was re-activating one of my pages about discussing the differences between the facts and the fake news on fake medias.   　  　 Well, these are my new pages:    Please give your "like" on my pages.  You will be receiving tons of update (since those pages are updated by bots) from the pages, but you can hide them too.

The Coffee Vending Machine

   When I was buying a cup of coffee from the vending machine, it made a big sound and shook itself a little.  It sounded like somebody inside hit his/her head somewhere there.  I was so curious but I was not brave enough to peep inside the machine because I had a feeling that if I peep inside, he or she inside would be attacking my eyes.

Hospital Day (6)

I was about to get back to my work, then the English teacher company called me again said "hey, Ito.  You have time?  We got the English teacher who need to go to the hospital."  I was like      I thought they were joking.   But neither they were joking nor I was in the movie.  So, this time, I was taking the male English teacher to the hospital.  He got black toe nail and other finger nails were turning into black color too, but he did not remember he hit anything with his toe or his shoes had been too tight.   The doctor was examining his toes, however, he could not find what had caused his toe nails turned into black color.    So, the doctor took the nail file and started filing English teacher's toe nail.   Guess what?  The color just came off!!    He did not have to take any medicine, but he had to pay for the examining  That cost him about 2,500 yen.   ...
