Farewel to Nori-P

つよポンは逮捕されてもすぐに復活した。しかもいきなり主演で。

　後記：彼が本当にクスリをやっていなかったのかについては僕は懐疑的である。３４歳が酔って前後不覚になって真っ裸になることがあり得るだろうか？　皆さんの周りの３４歳にそんな人がいますか？　でも尿検査で違法薬物は検出されなかったんだっけ。

のりPの復活は許してはならない。人生には取り返しのつかない失敗もある。There is an irreparable mistake in our life.

下に英語で書きましたが，芸能人のクスリの影響は，計り知れないほど大きい。強調してもし過ぎることはない。

芸能人がクスリをやると，おバカな若者が，「あ，あの彼女もクスリをやるんだ」とクスリを身近に思ってしまう。

彼女を芸能界から抹殺する。クスリ撲滅のためにはそれが唯一の道。No excuse.

～～～～

彼女の逃走を助けた人が犯人蔵匿罪に問われるかも話題になっているのかな。

　■　犯人蔵匿罪、犯人隠避罪（第103条）

罰金以上の刑に当たる罪を犯した者又は拘禁中に逃走した者を蔵匿し、又は隠避させた者は、二年以下の懲役又は二十万円以下の罰金に処せられる。

Truth is stranger than fiction.

Nori-P was arrested. Who on earth could imagine she might be arrested before this incident? Truly, fact is stranger than fiction.

In Japan, little occupation is free from drugs. Even politicians, not to mention TV stars haven given way to the temptation of drug .

Luckily, lawyers so far have been able to be immune from drug abuse. But I doubt they can keep clean forever. Because the quality of lawyers is degrading in Japan (because of their increase in number), they are soon threatened and tempted to drug abuse.

I changed my wall paper into the sample picture of dawn in the ocean. The picture energizes me, because I am an early bird loving dawn.

This blog has descended to a mere English composition blog...

Drugs undermine not only our body but also our mind. This is shown by Nori-P's unexpected change after her marriage to the "surf" guy.

She may not have acquired her notorious tattoo on her ankle.

The implications of Nori-P drug incident is not to be estimated small; they are huge and must be huge.

The young are apt to abuse drugs (more easily to resort to drugs）after this incident. Drugs are far from distant and another world's thing; they have become daily, common, and familiar thing because of the celebrity's abuse.

Narcotic law should be revised, strengthening punitive clauses.

I suppose I am a rather communicative person nowadays, but it is difficult for us Japanese to be communicative in English. Now I manage to make myself understood in English, sometimes even failing to doing so.

I hope I can be more prolific even in English on this blog. Every journey begins with a single step.

Today I am not in good condition; I may be tired after the dancing all night yesterday and only four hour's sleep. I have a tough time grasping English papers.

However hard we may strive, we Japanese cannot catch up with the English native speakers use. It is the same as foreigners cannot beat us in Japanese(though some foreigners had got Akutagawa-prize, the famous literary award in Japan).

That's why Uchida Tatsuru (Japanese professor and essayist)asserts that English should be just a tool, not to be think highly of as a superior language.

He also exemplifies someone's statement in some international conference, "The standard language of this conference is not English; it's poor English." The statement suggests that the unskillful English of non-native speakers should be treated as a good, enough vehicle in communication.

Yesterday I went to welcome reception with my national costume "kimono", which raised me to one of the most outstanding figures in the newcomers. Many asked me to take a picture with me. I felt like becoming a celebrity.

You can see the picture on website.

Nori-P incident is so intriguing. Her life stands for ups and downs.

Sat Morning

The three intriguing news of Reiko Ohara's death, the request of arrest warrant of Noriko Sakai(nicknamed as "Nori-P"), and the divorce of Yada(Yata?) Akiko may be steaming up the Japanese.

Especially, the drug abuse of Nori-P, one of the most popular, pure personalities(ex-idol) of Japan is astonishing. Anything goes in Japanese showbusiness!

She was the poster lady of "Saiban-in seido", the newly-established citizen jury system. The government and the Ministry of Justice may be perplexed of the incident.
