It was fine and hot.
I went to Shinagawa to see some friends, and ate lunch at Akita foods restaurant.
In the afternoon I went to Yokohama to see two movies. One is a Japanese movie and the other is an American movie. I wanted to see the Japanese movie first, but when I got to the theater about 30 minutes before starting, it was already sold out. So I changed the American movie "Ocean's Eight" first, and the Japanese movie "Kamera wo tomeruna (カメラを止めるな)," which means "Don't stop shooting!" second. Both were good. I was recommended the latter by my Expo '92 friend about a month ago and wanted to see it by all means.
There is a reason for someone to recommend something. So whenever someone recommends me something I want to try at least once.
I hope all of my friends take the same attitude.

It was fine and warm. Spring has come.
I went to Yokohama to see two movies. One is a Japanese movie titled "Inori no maku ga oriru toki (祈りの幕が下りる時)" and the other is an American movie "The Greatest Showman."
I think both are very good movies. If you have chances, I recommend you to watch.

It was a rainy day and cold.
In the morning I went grocery shopping.
In the afternoon I went to Yokohama to see three movies because my invitation tickets are valid until tomorrow.
First movie was "Jane Got A Gun ." Second was "Jason Bourne." Third was a Japanese movie "Scoop."
There are many new movies released yesterday, and will be released this weekend, so I am looking forward to seeing some of them.

It was fine and hot in the morning, but became rain in the afternoon.
Today is the last day of my summer vacation. I went to Yokohama to see two movies.
One is a Japanese movie titled "Gosaigyo no onna(後妻業の女)" which means the woman whose job is to marry old rich men.
The other is "Sully" and its Japanese title is "Hudson gawa no kiseki (ハドソン川の奇跡)" which means "the miracle of the Hudson River."
I think this is a good title because if we hear "Sully" we cannot imagine that the airplane accident occurred at the Hudson River.
After that I called many places to deal with my father's inheritance.
In the evening I met my ex-colleague of teaching job. We enjoyed talking about old stories.
My summer vacation was nice in total.

It was cloudy in the morning, and became fine in the afternoon.
I am in the summer vacation, and went to see movies in Kawasaki. I saw two movies by stock holders tickets.
The first one was a Japanese animation movie which is very popular now. Its title is"Kimi no na wa (君の名は。), " Your name. It is a spiritual movie, and somehow difficult to fully understand.
The other was "By the Sea." Its Japanese title is "Shiroi boshi no onna (白い帽子の女)" which means "The woman with a white hat. " It is quite different from the original title. The reason why I chose this was I happened to know that Brad Pitt and Angelina Jollie Pitt take leading roles yesterday on TV news telling about their divorce issue .
Brad Pitt is my favorite actor.
Recently I read a book written by my friend Chie who wrote about the message from the beloved one in heaven.

Since I have not had my children, by watching this movie and reading the book, I felt miscarriage is such a big issue.
After that I went to tax office again. There I happened to see one of my classmates from high school.
In the evening I attened a meeting after a long time which lasted from 5 pm to 10pm. It was fun to have dinner together and talk about many things with friends who have the same goals.

It was a windy and rainy day.
I went grocery shopping in the morning.
And I went to Yokohama to see two movies in the afternoon.
I watched them by invitation tickets.
First one was a Japanese movie which was rather spiritual one. Its title is "Tenshi ni I'm Fine. (天使にアイム・ファイン)", I'm fine to angels.
The other was "The Danish Girl" which Japanese title was again quite different, "Lily no subete (りりーのすべて)" which means "All about Lily." It seems it was based on the diary of Lily Elbe who got a surgery of transgender from man to woman for the first time.

It was fine.
I went to see three movies. First I went to Kamioooka and watched a Japanese movie, Ore monogatari(俺物語!!), My story. This is a high school students' love story, and it was very nice. The actor gained much weight to be this character.
Then I went to Kawasaki and watched "The man from uncle." It is a spy movie.
Finally I went to another theater in Kawasaki and watched another Japanese movie "Grasshopper." It was a revenge movie, and has a surprising ending.

I got up early and went to Ikebukuro (池袋) to take physical examination. It finished earlier than expected therefore I went to Yurakucho (有楽町) to see a movie "The Secret Life of Walter Mitty." Its Japanese title was just "Life." When I saw preview, I did not have interest so much, but it was a nice movie. It reminded me of my wish to go to Iceland.
These days "daydreaming" is very common. For example, NHK's morning drama "Hanako and Anne (花子とアン)" is dealing with "Anne of Green Gables" and its translator. Both of them like to daydream. The movie I watched last Saturday is also dealt with daydreaming. And this movie also dealt with daydreaming.
In the afternoon I attended a seminar and got to know two lecturers.
In the evening I went to Shinjuku (新宿) to measure AGE and watch another movie "The Wolf of Wall Street."

I went to once a week grocery shopping which I could not go last week. I was surprised to see the convenience store in front of the supermarket was closed.
In the afternoon I went to see two movies. One is "Silver Linings Playbook (世界にひとつのプレイブック : sekai ni hitotsu no purei bukku)" and the other is a Japanese one titled "Su chan, Mai chan, Sawako san (すーちゃん、まいちゃん、さわ子さん). " The former is the Oscar winning movie. Its Japanese title is quite different from the original. The latter is the story of three single 30s women.

I went to see two movies. One is a Japanese movie titled Gaku (岳), literally means high mountain. The other is Black Swan which Natalie Portman got the best actress award for the Academy Award. Both of them were very good. I recommend you to see them.
