Google Scholar

I always use google scholar when I search some jornal article :-)
When I took COMM224"Communication Study Research" it was really convenience for me!!

Do you know which company of producing Internet service is the biggest in the world? and in the United States? If you know it, please let me know!

I knew that "Rakuten", a Japanese company, has the most user in Japan. Yahoo is the second.
I was surprised at the fact. Actually, Rakuten is established in 2007, and it is new company.
I can't imagine why this company grew rapidly.
But I guess it is because the field is on the Internet.
In normal market place, they may not be able to get such a rapid result.
Internet is really first when we do everything.
It is interesting, but I am afraid of comming out some issue in the future.

Boston Carrer Forum2

We have a Boston Carrer Forum last week.
I was soooooooo tired and my legs was swollen because I walked all over inside the building all the time...
Unfortunately, I couldn't get any job.. but I want to work at TV station, so I don't mind!

In this event, various company participated and I undergo an oral examination of Japanese cell phone company, NTT Docomo.
I think the company is week for the advance into foreign market.
In Japan, there are three major company, Softbank, au (KDDI), and Docomo in cell phone companies.
Softbank sells i-phone first, and au and Docomo put the articles similar to it on sale recently.
Softbank has huge share of the market, and au is strong for advance into foreign market.

How should Docomo develop? What do Docomo develop to survive?

Class was cancelled!!

Today, I knew that the class was cancelled after I went to class room today.
I wanted to know before I went there!! lol
My classmate told me that.
He checked on Blackboard.
I check it everyday but I didn't do it today...

Today's topic is blackboard!

it is really good way to contact with classmate and professor with discussion board!
I think there is no system in Japanese college because they don't have online class there.
When I went back to Japan during summer, I took online class of psychology.
I could buy the textbook by Amazon, so I didn't have a problem.
We had discussion board and online exam in the class.
Who thought such a nice system?
I think Japanse college should take up it!

Globalization

In the class, we studied about globalization this week.
This topic was interesting for me because there are a lot of situation and things which is globalized.
What I remembered first is sports!
We have World Cup, Olympics, WBC (World Basaball Classic), F-1 race, and so on.
Even if the birthplace of sports is not there, we participate with these.
In addition, in Japanese national sports, sumo, there are a lot of Mongolians, and most of famous player is Mongolians, too. It is a result of globalization.

Even basketball, there are a lot of people who comes from other countries in NBA, right?

I was really exicited with talking about this topic.

My friend got a new TV!

I'm staying my friend's apartment now.
I had been here before, so I noticed that she got a new television when I first came here!
It is digital high-vision.
The former television was old, and it was small cathode-ray tube. The screen was the worst, too.
Yesterday, she checked the TV proglam by a cord of the system of digital television.
It was super! Awsome!
We don't need the internet, newspaper, or magazine of TV proglam to check it!

To more the digitization developing, the less the mass media use the print.
I don't know it is good or bad.
I want to get a job of TV station or publishing trade in the future, so it might be problem for me.
Publishing trade should think about it and find any solution.

In the train....

Finally, I arrived at Japan!!
finally, finally, finally.....lol

I have to check my sylabus not to forget my assignment....!
I have hard schedule...

When I took a train to go to Shinagawa station from Narita airport terminal, it has a small Television there, and I could read some news.
It was convenient!
In America, do they have such a system?
I have never seen it in T-train.
also we can see the news by cell phone, but I think it is epoch-making.

No cell phone, no life.

Im in Detroit! Guess why!
I ganna go back to Japan for job hunting this weekend. and I would get a plane at 3:25pm in Detroit.
However, the plane delayed in Boston......
That's why I am in the hotel here.
I want to go back soon!!!!!

When I let my mother know this situation, my cell phone didn't work.
I don't know why.
I really felt lost because I couldn't contact with anyone.
Now, I'm OK because I could use the Internet, and I could e-mail to her!

When I was in junior high school student, I didn't have a cell phone.
I didn't think anything then, but I thought it was really inconvenient.....
When I am free, wanna talk to someone, check some information quickly, I always use cell phone now.
I can't think about my life without cell phone!
We may depend on cell phone too much....

Youtube!

I watched a funny video today!
My friends told me that.

It was a video of the battles of Pokemon.

A man does a battle with other people in WI-FI.

The other people challenged a fight with Pokemon which seemed to be strong, but the man was with six same Pokemon.

And the fight began.

He talked to himself in the fight all the time.

The soliloquy was very funny.

Probably he was born in Kansai, because he had a dialect.

I really enjoyed watching it!

I love Baseball !!!

I went to baseball game last night again!
It started around 9:00 PM.
First, we took the tickets online, so we couldn't know the exact place of seat.



We found it! Oh, it was so far away from a mound.


The first pitch was Matsuzaka last night.
He was taken 4 point from Yankees, but I was glad to see him!
Also, we can see the pich of Okajima, and I think he did good job.
It was a really close battle.
During the bottom of the ninth inning, it was a tie score, 6 to 6.
And we did it! the winning in the bottom of the ninth inning!!!
I love Red Sox!!

I wanted to watch at closer seat.....
It was no way to do that because it was a battle of Red Sox and Yankees, though.
If I have a chance to go there next time, I want to get a ticket earlier online.

Last night

I went to Boston to watch the Red sox game!!
it was Red Sox vs. Yankees!
It was my first time to see Major League.
I was looking forward to watching!!!!!!!!!

However, it started raining.. Oh my goodness!

My friends and I waited for almost 3 hours at Fenway stadium.
It was so cold last night.

We went to the Res Sox shop to pass the time and watch TV.
It said "Rain Delay."
when I searched on my phone, it said "rain relay"

"How should we do... we don't get what's going on and we have a game tonight.."

Actually, the game was cancelled...

We spent a boring time then.

I thought the information should be reported earlier!
