Disaster

2004-10-24 | diary
There were very big earthquakes in Niigata prefecture yesterday evening.
Many people died or hurt and a lot of houses were broken down.
The rodes and highways were cut.
Even Shinkansen got derailed.

How awful the people there were !
I don't know what to say.

It was a few days after the strong typhoon no.23 which gave much damage at many districts.

Natural disasters are really fearfull as they are beyond our control.

At the polling place

2004-10-24 | diary

Today is an election day.

I went a small community center in the afternoon with my mother-in law ( from now on in blog, I will call her Shizusan) by car.
There were some peoplle who came to vote in the hall.
I saw some receptionists and voting witnesses who are my acquaintances.
I elected three candidates.
A prefectural governor, a mayor and a member of town assembly on each voting paper.

By this midnight, the result will be known.



By the way, we can see some people at the place like that whom we have't seen long.

Today too, I could see a few persons whom I don't usually see and talk with.
One of them was a young beautiful lady who was my daughter's classmate.
She is now working for a TV company and is an announcer there, so I told her that I sometimes watched her news show and so on.
She has become a good anouncer!
