Today is the last of 2012.  Time flied so fast. I am so happy personally to finish  a year with  satisfaction to complete something.   I have met many nice people and experienced new things.  Also I feel I am helped by many people and God. It’s time to thank and reflect myself and think of next year resolution.

BOOK    The Cracking The Success Code  was published in July and it became a best seller !   I am co author of Brain Tracy.  He taught me how to dream a big dream and gave me confidence. I have been learning from him. he is my coach!

CAREER  I decided to be  a Japanese Culture Consultant. I have learned Ikebana, tea ceremony, karate, kimono and I have skills and knowledge  of them.  Also I am people person and I love teaching and learning  with experience as a teacher for 25 years. I  started my career as a Japanese Culture Consultant.  I became a volunteer of the Hospice Center and the coordinator Sandy gave me the first opportunity to demonstrate Ikebana . I have  Ikebana course in Huffines Recration Center thanks to Michelle’s support.

I started to teach Ikenobo Ikebana I am very happy to share joy of Ikebana.  It’s a harmony of floral materials and yourself.I  learned Ikebana at the headquarter of Ikenobo in Kyoto, Japan which is origin of Ikebana.  Its amazing to feel its history and tradition.I finished my floral design diploma  at a career school.  Last September I started, seeking for my possible career and understanding Western style flower arrangement contrast to Ikebana.   I got a part time job as a floral designer at a store.

I had attended Japanese Language Meet Up on Saturdays since 2010.Lots of fun! In December I started to teach Japanese.  I am so glad to back to teach a children who is full of possibilities and talent.  She is amazing!  Children are our future!

FAMILY  My mother got sick and I did not hesitate to resign my part time job for taking care of her. Thank God she was healed. I knew what is more important in my life.  I was glad that I made her feel relieved and strengthen. |
