Last night's Changumu story was very controversial. THe king ordered her to be his main doctor because she is so talented that she has ever save his life by detecting the cause of disease no one else could ever thought out.However,this king's idea was not accepted by others when man can only serve that duty in the feudal society.In spite of strong opposition by others,Changum accepted his offer in order to break the conventional rule of men's society.After watched this story,I thought that it is a little too radical way which the king and Changum have chosen that may have the risk to confuse the order of the society,though it's as a matter of course better that men and women would be treated equally.Changum should be a good doctor not only for the king but also for other people as well.THe opinion may be divided whether to regard the King as selfish or the women are not fairly treated.

Yesterday I sat for the IT qualification test that is offered by the government to promote educating IT engineers.(I heard from my foreign friend that such test is not common in other countries.)Though this test has no direct relation with my current job,I started preparing for it spontaneously for these several months to expand my possibility anyway.Last time I sat for such kind of test must be when I was university student about 20 years ago.Even though I had pretty tough time tackling with many questions,I was glad to realize also that it was good stimulant to keep my mind in good shape.

In the trip this time,we attended our American friend's wedding in St.Louis,who has been in Kyoto last year as an English teacher at that time we've got friends each other.The wedding was held in the park very simply without any extra expense for the arrangement.At the ceremony after the couple gave their oath to the priest,we were introduced as a special guests from Japan and sang a wedding song for them that was accepted gratefully as a great honor.We also could enjoy touching customs of foreign country and communicating with local people,that was much precious time than commonplace sightseeing tour.
