    The First Snow

    December 19, the snow first showers this year in Nagoya and some other parts of Japan.

    Light snow in the morning will give way to some light rain in the afternoon.

    This evening, there is a chance of cloudy with rain and snow. Luckily, snow showers overnight.... less than 1 inch, though.

    It snows, maybe, today and tomorrow only.... for now. Yet, it might surprisingly do again, as a gift, on Christmas Day or New Year`s Eve.

    To feel the real winter, be patient until the later half of January and early of February.

    It really is a good time to be with friends and share the fun !!

    Enjoy !!!!

    What About Now

    If you love somebody, let them go, for if they return, they were always yours. And if they do not, they never were.

    Kahlil GIBRAN


    You are strong but she is not. At least, not as strong as you think she is.


    The more you want, the more ambitious you are, the more you lose, the more you get hurt. That is the unwritten rule you should be aware of.

    You might end up not knowing what you were and are chasing for. It turns out NOTHING.... at all. So you know what to do and why not make a move right now??

    Microsoft Office 2010

    Microsoft Office Professional 2010 Beta, 32-bit:

    Microsoft Office 2010 products offer the greatest compatibility with existing software and all versions of Microsoft Windows (including 64-bit versions).

    If you have Office XP, Office 2003, or Office 2007 you will be able to perform an in-place upgrade to Office 2010 with a 32-bit version of your product.

    Existing Office add-ins are most likely to be compatible with a 32-bit installation of Office 2010.

    Improvements in Office 2010 allow each 32-bit Office program to access 2GB of memory.
