It was my last day at current working company.
I quited my working company today.
I decided it in June due to recent bad company's economy.
However, that was not negative retirement.
I thought I wanted to try next stage!
I haven't decided next job.
But, I'm really exciting!
Because I could meet new trying!
As same as current job? English?
I don't know.
But! I want to work enjoying!
I went to Minamisanriku town, Miyagi for working as a volunteer on May 19th.
I joined the Gunma Fujioka Disaster Volunteer Circle and went there.
We left in front of the Fujioka city hall at 0:30 A.M. and arrived at
the Minamisanriku Volunteer Center around 7 A.M.
We moved to Nagasizu area in Minamisanriku town with another groupe.
About 60 people worked as a volunteer there.
The Minamisanriku volunteer leader said that there were about 30 houses.
But, the tsunami carried away them on 3.11.
We started around 10 A.M.
We picked up debris on the ground and in.
I could not look vestiges of house.
But, I diged there and looked the foundation.
There were certainly houses. But now, they were under a lot of mud and bebris.
We had two short breaks and lunch break.
And we finished the volunteer activity on that day.
In the end of the volunteer activity, the leader said, "Please tell many people about actual condition of
Minamisanriku town and never forget Minamisanriku's things."
I saw Minamisanriku town in the bus.
There is delayed rivival.
They need many volunteers power.
It has been one year past.
The East Japan hit a great earthquake last year.
In Gunma, linving place, also hit a big earthquake.
That quake was that I had yet to experience that earthquake.
However, Gunma is far from sea. Then Gunma did not hit Tsunami.
Pacific ocean side of Kanto or Tohoku region hit great Tsunami.
Then Tsunami sweeped away many lives.
Desaster area is rivivaling now.
It needs many time, money and volunteers.
But, we are walking to the future!
We are doing well!
We had many incidents last year.
Great Earth Quake, downpours in Niigata or Fukushima, an inundation in Thailand...
Economic critical situation.
We want to make a good year.
3 months later, Big earthquake hit east Japan.
Disaster areas are reviving.
However, that is different from each disaster areas.
They need still volunteer.
But, they are short of volunteer.
What can we do?
Go to there? Donate contributions?
I donated blood today.
I went to Tagajo city, Miyagi prefecture.
There was hit big Tsunami on March 11th.

I went to Tagajo city in Miyagi for volunteer activities on June 5th, 2011.
I joined participants at Kiryu station at 5:45 AM.
We arrived Tagajo city at 11:20 AM.
Our mission was shoveling sludge in gutters.
We separated 2 groups, group A and group B.
I joined Group A.
Group A went to one corner of a quiet residential area.
We shoveled sludge there.
I talked the lady living in there.
Tsunami from the sea, flood water from Sunaoshi river
living on 2nd floor...etc.
Group A
Tsunami's trace.
And after that, we joined Group B, but they had finished.
That area was finished!
Then we moved another area.
There was one of the biggest damage area in Tagajo city.
There was in front of the Yahata shrine.
The sludge was buried in the gutter.
All 47 members fought against the sludge in cooperation.
At rest time, I saw around there.
We finished for 90 minutes.
I thought they needed more volunteer and time.
Please paticipate the rivival volunteer activities!
This weekend June 12th, Kiryu Disaster Support Volunteer Center is inviting

I went to Iwanuma city in Miyagi for volunteer activities.
There was hit by the Great East Japan Earthquake and tsunami.
I went to there with Thespa Kusatsu supporters and others.
We went to there from in fornt of Takasaki station via Kiryu station.
We arrived there at 12:30 P.M becase we were caught in a traffic jam
on Tohoku high way.
We immediately prepared at work.
At first, we carried household goods.
But they were staind and broken by tsunami.
I was shocked when I watched sticked a chest of drawers into the ceiling.
And there were books or CDs or etc in mud.
I thought tsunami covered all with mud.
We rested each one hour.
We worked for 3 and half hours.
We though it was not perfect.
But I thought it was a help for them.
If I get a chance next time, I want to go to desaster area again.
Desaster areas still need a lot of volunteer.
Please help them!
The East Japan was hit the Great East Japan Earthquake one month ago.
Big aftershocks hit us today, too.
I think aftershocks continues.
However, the disaster area starts reviving little by little.
And Fukushima nuclear power plants accident settles dowm.
I want to support reviving.
Ganbaro!Nippon!
We'll never walk alone!
