今日1年半ぶりくらいに髪の毛が茶色くなった！留学中はやっぱ日本人として黒髪にしておこうと思って黒色でいてんけど、帰ってきてからも、就職が決まってからもそのままでいた。理由は９月頃またアメリカに戻るつもりで、やっぱ海外行くときは黒髪でいたい、9月まであとちょっとしかないから茶色くしてすぐに黒く戻すのももったいないなぁ～と思って。でもやっぱ夏だし、みんなにも「まゆは茶色って感じ」といわれ、我慢できず、染めてしまった。。でもお気に入り☆私の大好きな「ミルク手ティーを濃くしたようなきれいな茶色」にしてもらった。
でも、いつも海外の日本人旅行者をみて思うのが、みんな髪がまっ茶っ茶で、日本人の私としては恥ずかしい。。もちろん、おしゃれでしているのは分かるのだが、外国人は「どうしてあんなきれいな黒髪を持っているのに日本人は茶色くするの？欧米人のまねをしようとしているのかもしれないけど、アジア人は黒髪が一番似合うよ。変だよ。」といわれる。確かに彼らの言う通りだと思う。外国人はパサパサでつやのない人が多いが、日本人は生まれもってきれいな髪を持っている人が多い。なのに激しいブリーチをしてパサパサになって。。
とかいいながら、私も茶色くしてるけどね。まぁほどほどに☆でも海外行くときは「日本人らしく」黒く染め直して行きます！
I colored my hair brown in one and a half years! I had it black while i was in the U.S. as Japanese, and i kept it black after i came back. In Japan, everyone dye their hair brown. I mean, EVERYONE (especially girls)! It's considered "cute".
In my opinion, it is "cute" and that's why i colored my hair brown. and my friends say i look good in brown. However, at the same time, when i see Japanese travelling abroad in such a bright brown hair, i feel ashamed as Japanese. Of course that's fashion, but many foreigners say "why do Japanese color their beautiful black hair to brown? They might want to look like Westerns, but Asian looks best in black." Absolutely. Many foreigners have very dried hair but Japanese have beautiful smooth hair, and that will be damaged after coloring...
I did color my hair even though... well, applying common sense. But i will turn it back to black before i go abroad!! I'll enjoy my brown hair for now:)

God, i'm so scared...
昨日3時間しか寝てなくて、今日も一日忙しかったからぐっすりと爆睡するはずなのに、超怖い夢をみて目が覚めた。
私が車で人をどんどん撥ねる夢。。一体これはどういう意味なのだろう。。
書いてる今も思い出すと恐ろしい。しかもなんとなく初めてではなく、前も同じ夢をみたような。
Dejavuってやつ？夢は現実ではないものの、そのときの心情を表したり、何かを示唆する気がする。
今後なにもなければいいが・・・。
Since I only slept 3 hours last night and i was running around the whole day, i was sooo tired and went to bed early. However, i woke up suddenly because of the terrible dream...
A dream that i killed many people by car. What does this dream mean to me...?
God, it was so scary.... horrible...
Plus, i kind of have a feeling that this is not the first time to see this dream.
which you call it dejavu? Even though dream is just a "dream" and not real, "dream" should mean something. or show your feelings. I hope nothing bad will happen....

My Fitness Club
私が最近バイトし始めたスポーツクラブ。7月にオープンして家に近いのと、自分が使いたくて応募した。
ボート置き場に面していて超景色がよく、プール・ジャグジーがの屋外（3コース）と屋内（7コース）にあり、走るマシンには一台1個のTV付。しかも私の内定したS社製品☆内心すごくうれしかった♪もうすでに愛社精神が芽生えてる！？
超広くて綺麗し、スチームサウナやアロマ室もあってほんとリゾートみたい。
ちょっと自慢のジムみてやってください☆
でも人手が足りず、バイトしてるためあんま自分が施設使えてないのよね。。
I just started to work at t fitness club (part time). i applied for it cause i it's very close to my house and i can use it for free. It's right next to the ocean so the view is sooo nice and there's pool and jacuzzi indoor (7 lanes) and out doors (3lanes), there's one TV for each running machine! It's sooo nice and big But since there's not enough staff, i have to work most of the time and don't have time to workout myself...

Result
Oh, i forgot to tell you the result of the pilot test!!
パイロットの試験の結果報告するの忘れてた！！
i failed :o( but i'm glad that i failed :o) 落ちた！！けど落ちてよかった～
cause i'm scared of hights and don't wannna be a pilot! 高所恐怖症だしパイロットにはなりなくないよ。。 まぁいい経験でした☆ well, it was a good experience though.
By the way, will someone from other countries tell me how students get a job in your country? i know you need to have skills and experience to get a job but then how do students that have no experience get a job?? What is the jobhunting system in your country?
i'm just writing this for my self satisfaction so i haven't told my friends that i'm writing a blog but hope someone will read this and reply to me.

久しぶりすぎる！！
ず～っと書いてなかった！！I haven't written this in a long long time!!
いっぱい書こうと思ってたのに。。。就活やら、何やらで忙しかったのです。。i was busy looking for job and other things... Sorry..
就活一応終わりました。私はやっぱり海外にすごく興味があって、国際的な仕事は絶対条件だったんだけど、いまやほとんどの仕事がそう。その中でも私は「日本の強いものを世界に広めたい！」という思いが強かった。留学する前とかは海外志向が強くて、外資系がいいなぁとか思ってたけど、留学先でアメリカ企業でインターンをして、「日本っていいなぁ。自分ってやっぱり日本人なんだなぁ。」と実感しました。そして日本人として日本の誇れるものを世界に広げたいと思ったの。しかも、もうすでに世界トップの企業でなくて、まだまだ可能性がある企業。私が世界一になるよう貢献したい！と思ったのです。
内定も希望のとこもらえたので、うれしいです☆だた、勤務地・配属先が不安。。まぁこればっかりはわからないね。もちろん、希望は言うけどね。
Well, i finally got a job. The company where i wanted to go. It's a Japanese manufaucturing company. Of course i wanted to do international job but nowadays most of the jobs are international. so, what i wanted to do is expand the company and our products in the world which i am proud of as a Japanese and Japanese products. Before i went abroad, i kind of wanted to get into foreign company. but while i was there, i felt that i am really Japanese and became to be proud of myself as a Japanese. Therefore, i thought i should start working in Japanese company and learn more about Japanese buiness and culture as a Japanese. Sorry if i said 'Japanese' too much and sound stupid. Anyway, right now i am worried about where i'm gonna be working and which position. I think this is very different from other countries job hunting.. In Japan, (i'm talking about people graduating college and looking for jobs) new graduates start looking for a job 1 year before they graduate. All the students start job hunting at the same time (usually from January to March). Big well known company will take about 100 employyes. Job-hunting in Japan is very competitive. Popular company like Toyota will be few hundred times as many as the fixed number.
And usually you don't know which position you will get. You can say your will but the company dicides. Isn't this strange? what if you have to do what you don't wanna do? In this case, japanese think that doing many different kinds of jobs will broaden your mind and you may find other interests doing that job. Plus, company put you in this position cause they think that that position suits you. Somepeole really seem to enjoy their job even though that was the job they didn't wanna do. So, maybe this works but i'm a little nervous now.
今日はいっぱい書いた！Wow, i wrote a lot today. 久々だしいっぱい書くことあるけど、だらだらなりそうなのでこの辺で☆
Good night☆
