Around Forty, looks like Twenties.

Around Forty, in short, Ara Four means a person is 36 to 44.

“OMG I’ll be around forty next year!”
Women under 35 is very tough position, either you’re married or not married. 

“Obasan” means middle aged women in Japanese. Also pronounce the same as aunt. Most women can’t accept the fact you will be called this way. 

20 years ago, above 30 is considered Obasan. Now though, because of so many both famous and unknown ordinary women keep themselves look young changes images of over thirty still young and beautiful. 

You can look pretty good in thirties no problem but how about in 40’s? Around 40 is the challenging time for women.

Especially in Japan, age matters. Women around thirty is getting nervous about whether if she will get married by early thirty or at least build a certain relationship to be married and have family together, well, sounds like kind of similar everywhere though.

Because of long recession, its harder for young people to have good paying job in Japan. again, sounds like world’s problem in the U.S or Europe. People get paid so little to even barely make a living for himself, so hard to have traditional housewife and one kid or two kids. 

Not only women facing tough time, Mens too.

Around the world, for the people around 40, life is tough, that’s how I feel. You imagined your future bright when you were young. Living in a dream big house, jobs are great, have a wonderful spouse and kids, maybe a dog or two. 

I see some people especially men facing the “mid life crisis” 

Look at your reality, the rent and house is too expensive, you got paid so little to even get by, you fight your spouse bi weekly over money. Your kids isn’t so bright just like you were.. It shouldn’t be this way. I could be better. I deserve better job or women (with bigger boobs / implant one is better). 

I know at least two people who is facing marriage crisis for this reason. 

You are not young forever, and people Around 40’s are facing parent’s end of the life. You need to be responsible and think about your own retirement.

That’s around 40, its the wake up time for the brighter life Around 50, 60, 70, 80, and 90. or even 100.

Great Skin Care Cream.

My gut is boiling with anger.

Harawata ga niekurikaeru. means My gut is boiling.

This is  a Japanese expression.

Harawata is intestine. There are so many expression to connect intestine and emotion. I read some articles about intestine health and mental health is closely connected.

My son's scooter (not a razor, pro scooter, its expensive) was stolen by the same elementary school boy. My son and his friend were inside a seven eleven and they noticed my son's scooter was taken by a boy and his older brother. They rushed outside and chased them but they lost them after the first left at the end of the block. My son cried so much and came home. I went with them to search for the boy and tried to find where they were, but no luck.

We came back home and called police. They'll look into the camera.

I hope my son's scooter is coming back soon.
