Yesterday, on the last day of the successive holidays, there was a huge tornadoes somewhere northwest of Tokyo, a student was killed, many people were injured and over 1500 houses were damaged. It's very rare that we have such big tornado in this country, its violent image which some ordinary people have recorded horrified us very much.
From the end of April to the beginning of May some national holidays and weekend make a successive holidays every year, we call this "Golden Week". In the midst of the comfortable early-spring days, this is one of the most popular holiday season in Japan. But this year the weather was unstable and we often had sudden rain, there were some tragic traffic accidents during the holidays then this tornado... we have to admit that this year's "Golden Week" was an unlucky one.
As for myself I enjoyed my holiday enough but now the ordinary workdays began, I feel a bit ... uncertain, not sure about if I have spent this precious holiday wisely. There remains many things on my "to do" list, especially the important (so inevitably difficult) items. I'm really doubtful of my own ability to execute the tasks efficiently. And now the usual days back, the life being always pressed for time because I'm really bad at managing the schedule.
Well... at least I'm fine, my family, my rabbit, my friends too. No natural disaster nor accident has hit us and I should be thankful for that. Maybe this blue mood is just because of the end of holidays...
