ニューヨークのコロナウイルスによる制限解除!

2021年06月17日 01時33分00秒 | 海外
先週、フレンチプレスとやらを日本人の方から中古で買いまして。$5 ありがたや

受け取り場所がマンハッタン。
週末にマンハッタンに行けることにちょっと興奮😸

受け取り場所に向かってる時一つにことに気づく。

マスク使ってない人ばっかり!


びっくりしてたらこんなニュースが入ってきました。

“New York lifts most Covid restrictions 'effective immediately' now that 70% of adults have at least one vaccine shot”

70%の人がワクチンを最低でも一回受けたので、コロナによる制限を今すぐ解除!

ついに来たー!
ワクチンってすげーーーー!

わたしはまだマスク使ってますけどね。


ワンワールドトレードセンターの真ん前にビルを建てたバカはどこの誰ですか?
ブルックリンのダンボ側から見えなくなりましたよ。ヴァカ!



Last week, I bought second hand of coffee press from Japanese by $5.

The pick-up location was Manhattan.
I was thrilled because I got reason to go to Manhattan on the weekend 😆

 When I was heading to the house of seller, I realized one thing. So many people do not wear a mask!

And then I found this breaking news.

“New York lifts most Covid restrictions 'effective immediately' now that 70% of adults have at least one vaccine shot”


Finally!!!
How awesome COVID-19 vaccine is !

I’m still using my mask though....

Who is the idiot that built the building in front of One World Trade Center?



Apple cider vinegar maybe helps me to lose weight...

こんにちは。

久しぶりに地下鉄に乗ったんですが。
結構、人が乗ってて密でした。

I took a subway for the first time in a long time. There were a lot of people in there so I couldn’t keep the social distances...

本日のweekly assignment のお題ですが、「密林のお客様センターにお問い合わせのメールを送る。」です。

どうぞ。

To Amazon customer service 


HI. My name is ************* who had ordered ten dozen Apple cider vinegar and my son’s Minecraft T-shirts last week. I received all of them yesterday. 

I’d like to get refund because all of the bottles of the Apple cider vinegar were cracked and were leaking. I couldn’t sip even a drop of it even though I've ordered ten dozen.

 Because the bottles had a lot of crack in it and it had been leaking, the T-shirts has a lot of big stain in it. 

When my son found his stained stinky T-shirts, he broke down and a lot of tears came out from his eyes. 


Now my house is so stinky. Actually, it causes trouble not only me, but also neighbors. 

When my neighbor smelled the vinegar, they thought it poisoned gas or something. Someone called Con Edison, and other one called 911. Since they had reported that there were a full of the suspicious smell around their neighbors, NYPD, FDNY and even United States Army Special Forces came to our house. And of course, Con Edison too. 

I was taken to a police station as a suspect of a making confusion and to explain why I had the smelly boxes. 

That is why I am writing this letter in a custody.


Please refund me as soon as possible because I have to pay my bail. And if you could call here now and explain it, I will really appreciate it.

Thank you very much for your corporation in advance.


Sincerely

密林でりんご酢🍎は注文した事はないですけどね。いつもトレーダージョーズで買ってます。コストコのが安いんですが、なんか酸っぱすぎて飲めない

Actually, I’ve never ordered even one bottle of apple cider vinegar before at Amazon..
Usually I get the vinegar at the Trader Joe’s. Costco also has the vinegar but somehow they are too sour to drink for me. 

りんご酢大さじ1杯
ハチミツ大さじ2杯
ビーツ半分
りんご🍎1個
牛乳🥛100cc
お水100cc
(計った事ないので多分こんな感じだと思うんですが、)
全部ミキサーにかけてスムージーにして飲むと美味しいですよ

Have a nice day

I baked an apple pie last week. That was awfully bad taste  because I accidentally put a lot of vanilla extra...

Today’s weekly assignment is “What is your wonderful first food experience in America?”

最初のが私ので、先生の添削が後に載ってます。

My wonderful first food experience in America was the American No1 fast food “doughnuts”.
Actually, the doughnuts I ate was just normal doughnuts, however, the experience was really heartwarming and even now, makes me happy. About 10 years ago, I arrived JFK. It was the first time for me to come America. Rather than, it was my first travel to overseas. My lack of English was enough to scare me to go out. What's more, the house which I had booked was in East Harlem and that place was totally different from my expectation of New York City. I lost my appetite.

However, the house was not hotel that comes with meals, so I had to get my food by myself. I wasn’t hungry at all, so I thought it would be enough just one doughnut. I went to inside Dunkin’ doughnuts, then I ordered by using my poor English.  And then, when I was trying to pay, I totally couldn’t tell which coins I had to use. While I was trying to figure out which coins I had to use, cashier misunderstood that I hadn’t had enough coins, so she kindly offered me using the coins which they had put in front of cashier. I got dough and doughnuts at the Dunkin’ doughnuts.
That’s my first food memory in America.
Of course I love them just not because the dough but sweet doughnuts.

My wonderful first food experience in America was the number one American (switched order)  fast food “doughnuts”.

 

Actually, the doughnuts I ate were just normal doughnuts, however, the experience was really heartwarming and even now, makes me happy to think about again. About 10 years ago, I arrived to/at JFK airport. It was the first time for me to come America. Rather, (took out “than”) it was my first time traveling (took out “to”) overseas. My lack of English was enough to scare me to goback home. Furthermore, the house which I had booked was in East Harlem and that place was totally different from my expectation of New York City. I lost my appetite.

 

(Took out “However”) The house was not a hotel that came with meals, so I had to get my food by myself. I wasn’t hungry at all, so I thought it would be enough to eat/have/buy just one doughnut. I went to Dunkin’ Doughnuts/inside of a Dunkin’ Doughnuts and ordered by using my poor English.  (Took out “and then”) When I was trying to pay, I totally couldn’t tell which coins I had to use. While I was trying to figure out which coins I had to use, the cashier misunderstood that I hadn’t had enough coins, so she kindly offered me to use the coins which they had put in front of the cash register. I got dough and doughnuts at the Dunkin’ Doughnuts.

 

That’s my first food memory in America.

Of course I love them just not because the dough but sweet doughnuts.





これはスタバのドーナツ🍩

Whenever I go to Dunkin’ doughnuts, it reminds me of her kindness.

こんにちは 今日のモンテネグロです。
たまに15年ぐらい前に書いた記事を読み返すと「黒歴史とはこの事か。」と1人恥ずかしい気持ちになります。(でも消さない。)

 I read the articles which I wrote fifteen years ago. I feel really embarrassed and I felt that this is the so called  “Dark past”. 

I won’t delete it though.


ターゲットに用事で来ました。マークと同じぐらい大きく「マスクつけてね。」の表示が。

Talking about a target

Because of their uniform, if you go to Target with wearing a red shirts or red t-shirts, you will be misunderstood that you are employee of Target, and asked about products or products locations by other customers. Likewise, you will also ask someone who is wearing red shirts about products.


ターゲットに赤いシャツで買い物に来ると店員に間違われて商品の場所とか聞かれるし、自分も赤い服着てる人見ると商品の場所とか聞いてしまいます。みんな赤い服着てるんで。




マチの広いエコバック5€でした。


その後ダウンタウンブルックリンを散策して。

I took a stroll around Downtown Brooklyn.







Because I skipped my breakfast and was hungry ,pizza and Frankfurt were really fascinating...


お腹すいてたもんで、ピザとかフランクフルトに目を奪われます。





キューピーマヨネーズ。



そんなわけで、本日もご覧頂きありがとうございました。


今日1日、良い日でありますように。


Thank you for reading my blog today.

Have a great day!




猫の家族写真撮れました。ジンジャーのお母さんとお父さんでしょう、きっと。

I could take a couple of cat picture.
They must be the parents of Ginger.



夏の過ごし方(いまさら?)

2020年10月17日 02時11分00秒 | 海外
こんにちは 今日のモンテネグロです。

潰れたと思っていたチャイニーズ系のパン屋が開いていて、嬉しくて半年ぶりにコーヒー☕️を飲みます。3/16以来。$1.25


I used to have a classmate who was from Montenegro. When I realized that he was from Montenegro, I said sorry in my mind because I had been using his country’s name for my stupid blog...without any permission...I don’t know whether I need it or not though...


前にモンテネグロ公国から来たクラスメイトがいて、なんかこんなふざけたブログ書いてて申し訳なくなりました。


Anyway...


今日も恥を捨てて、ウィークリーアサイメントを載せたいと思います。

本日のお題は夏時間の粋な過ごし方。でしたが、あんまり思いつかず。結局ニューヨークシティで出しました。

間違いだらけでドン引きでした。


まず私の英文からどぞー

How to spend summer time in city.
I recommend visiting NYC. NYC is hot place literally, especially in summer. Feeling hot air from outside equipment of air conditioner and exhausted gas from car by walking Manhattan is truly New Yorker’s summer daily life. (and also catching cold by riding too cold subway car is New Yorker.)
My favorite thing in NYC is eating Pizza. You can eat Pizza through the year though, in summer, you enjoy eating pizza outside or park. But watch out pigeons and swallows. Staring at you and forcing you to give your pizza’s ears is their job.
If you have time, I recommend visiting Brooklyn too. Walking across the Brooklyn Bridge is so fun. Looking down and seeing the River’s stream as working scares you but so fun. You can feel chill even you are in the hot city. There is Jane’s carousel, which is built in 1922, almost 100years ago, is in the Empire Fulton state park. You will admit riding it and looking at and observing awe-beautifully made old carousel and huge size of Brooklyn Bridge is unforgettable experience for family. After ridingthe carousel, you can walk along river side park with viewing Manhattan skyscrapers, which makes "NYC". 


お次に載せますのが、先生の直しが入ったものです。
今回もいっぱい直されました。そしてこれらを全て覚えたら完璧ですが、無理

Then... These are the assignment after teacher editing. Nobody is perfect 

How to Spend the Summertime in the City

 

I recommend visiting New York City (NYC). (If you want to use an acronym, write out the fill term/name first, then add the acronym in parenthesis afterwards.) NYC is a hot place (literally)especially in summer. Feeling hot air from air conditioners and exhaust gas from cars by walking outside in Manhattan is truly New Yorker’s summer daily life. (I switched around words and took out some words from this sentence.) Likewise, catching a cold by riding the very cold subway car in the city is a very New York thing to experience. (I switched around words and took out some words from this sentence also.)

My favorite thing to do in NYC is eating pizza. You can eat pizza throughoutthe year so in summertime, you canenjoy eating pizza outside or in a park. But watch out for pigeons and swallows. Staring at you and forcing you to give them your pizza’s crust is their job.

 

If you have time, I recommend visiting Brooklyn too. Walking across the Brooklyn Bridge is so fun. Looking down and seeing the EastRiver’s/river’s stream while walking scares you but it’s/ it is so fun. You can feel a breeze/chillyeven though you are in the hot city. There is Jane’s Carousel, which was built in 1922, almost 100years ago. It is in (took out “the”) Empire Fulton State Park. You will admit ridinglooking atand observing beautifully made old carousel and huge size of Brooklyn Bridge is anunforgettable experience for families. After riding the carousel, you can walk along Riverside Park while viewing Manhattan skyscrapers, which are things that makes NYC, NYC. 





裏庭に遊びに来たネコちゃん🐈すんごい三白眼。

A small cat came to play with me because I was playing his mother or sister  
He looks like Ginger which is the character of Tom and Friends.
He has a strong sanpaku eyes.

てゆうか三白眼の英語ってsanpaku eyes
なのね。。。


His sister or mother. I don’t know.

こんにちは。「訴えてやる!ヤー!」今日のモンテネグロです。

トップの写真はNYCの混乱の中、なんか変な落書きをされちゃった郵便局のバンです。治安の低下を顕著に現したお写真になっております。フリーMTAは魅力的です。

Recently, my teacher has been giving new assignments for students. That’s so fun and efficient for studying English.

I’m gonna put my assignment here.
One of them is my original.
Another one is edited by teacher.

ちなみにお題は「なかなか家の修繕をしてくれない大家を訴える時の裁判所に提出する陳述書」みたいなもんです。


To whom concerned it.

Today, I\'m suing my landlord who put us in danger for not repairing apartment.

My apartment, which is so tiny room, hasn\'t had Gus and electricity since last summer, so we have to use candle every night and campfire for cooking at the back yard, which causes burn our skin and risk burn out our backyard.
And we have no hot water, which make us refresh at least, so we have been taking a shower with cold water. It really pisses me offwhen my shoulder gets really cold water and I almost frozen to death. What is more, we have no celling that is essential for residence. The celling that was blown off by the hurricane has been ignored since then. 

It upset me when my son, who is the most careless child in the world, gets burned his hand, so I don\'t want to use candle and campfire anymore. And also, it drives me crazy when I got pigeon\'s poop from sky. I like it when I see the Polaris at the night though.
 I hate it when people ignore me, so please let him do something.


sincerely 

And then, these are edited by teacher.

To Whom It May Concern,

 

Today I\'m suing my landlord who put us in danger for not repairing our apartment.

 

My apartment, which is such a tiny room, hasn\'t had gas and electricity since last summer. We have to use a candle every night and acampfire for cooking in the backyard, which causes burns on our skin and risks setting our backyard on fire. Also we have no hot water, which makeus at least feel fresh, so we have been taking our showers with cold water. It really pisses me off when my shoulder gets really cold water on it and I almost freeze to death. What is more, we have no ceiling which is essential for residence. The ceiling that was blown off by the hurricane has not beenreplaced since then. 

 

It upsets me when my son, who is the most careless child in the world, gets burned on his hand, so I don\'t want to use a candle and campfire anymore. Also it drives me crazy whenpigeons’ poop falls on us from the sky. I like it when I see the Polaris at the night though. I hate it when people ignore me, so please help me so he can do something.

 

Sincerely,

結構直されました。
定冠詞と前置詞。一生絶対完全には覚えられないと思う。

Tomorrow, my son will take classes at school for the first time in half a year.
He got so nervous. I’m also nervous.



庭で焼き芋焼いたら隣から怒られました。調べたらイリーガルだった。。。
でもすいません、家族団欒で楽しかった

Since we didn\'t know that that’s the illegal for burning a dried tree,so I baked sweet potato at the backyard. we got yelled by furiously angry neighbor...So so sorry.....but we really enjoyed it as a family event 


Anyway.
Thank you very much for reading my blog! 
Have a great weekend!

Long time no see...

Hi! long time no see!
I was surprised because someone still visited my blog even though I haven't updated it! Thank you so much!

Last week, I visited American Museum of National History for the first time in years... They are amazing.  But I got tired little, so I took a rest under the my favorite whale displays... 
They have a special exhibition of T-rex , so I should go again.

Recently, I have started a new blog about Starbucks in NYC. 
If you are interested in my new blog, please check it out!  It is written in Japanese though...


You thought I was an idler, didn't you? lol


Thanks for coming my blog!
Have a great day!



I really couldn't ask....

おはようございます。Good morning!
モンテネグロです。

I found this as I review my pictures.

キラキラしてんなー。あったかいなー。



One night, I had a headache badly so that I couldn't sleep that night . I told my mother in law so. So she recommended good Chinese doctor. She said he checked where I had a problem with me by using a acupuncuture.

ある晩のこと、すごい頭痛で寝れなくて、それをお義母さんに言ったところ、すごいいいお医者さんいるよと紹介してくれまして。なんか、どこが悪いか鍼治療みたいなので検査してくれると。。。

I'd love to do that!! I made appointment immediately.I went out of my way to go to Flushing....

なんか面白そう!やって見たい!
すぐ予約をいれて。わざわざフラッシングまで行ってきました。

I was waiting the time while being excited.
わくわくしながらその時を待っていたのですが。

But he didn't use a needle at all.Rather, he used just small tiny hammer instead of it.
Then put his hand onto my knee then hit his hand.

かわりになんと、脚気を調べるようなのを出してきてトントン叩かれました。
しかもね。先生、自分の手を叩いてらっしゃる…。いたくないですか先生?

In the end,needles never showed up in front of me...(´・_・`)
What's more, I was diagnosed with migraine as my expected.

で、結局最後まで針は一本も出てこず。
おまけに診察結果は偏頭痛。



でも、眼医者さん紹介してくれて、
その眼医者さんでコンタクトレンズもらいました。ラッキー。


There is no any Japanese. I got used to it.


There was no any space for me. ( ;´Д`)

それでは本日もご覧いただきありがとうございました。
