Hard working grandpa who never stopped studying till his last days, he started to learn internet/email at the age of 80, he is my hero. All my family member told me I look just like my grandpa, and I think it's true... I am not as much of a hard worker as he was, but some behaviors I do feel familier from his. I also must say he influenced me in many ways, I didn't even began to realize until a few years after he passed away. But often times, when people die, you would start to realize/think about this person so much more. I suppose this means he is living inside me, and I am living my life with him.
He spoke multiple languages, always told me I need to speak at least two languages. He was well traveled (mostly for work), went to work till 85, he simply loved his job. Around the time he turned 80 (late 80s), which was about the time that home computer was finally started to spread in Japan, he bought a computer and started to type his own biography in MS word right after it was released. Maybe that's why I am always interested in new technologies.
Now speaking of Goonies, I really wanna go to Cannon beach, and have some beer at Pelican Pub looking at the Goonies rocks.
One of the many things I haven't done and been wanting to do: a road trip to Oregon coast.
本当に素敵でカッコいいおじいちゃまだね。まさにヒーロー。確実に貴女DNA受け継いでいるわよ!やはり自分の人生確立する中で大きな影響を及ぼすのは側にいつもいる家族の生き様なんだな。与えられる教育以上に。そんな気がする。(今、公立の教育でいいのか悩んでんの)
ReplyDeleteそして、グーニーズ(笑)懐かしいなあ。あの怖い母ちゃんの顔がうちの母が怒った時の顔にそっくりでね。
次回会える時は、グーニーズ鑑賞会でも開こう。
