The Orange Moon



I like night time, because it simply means my work is done at that time and go on my free time. Look up the sky and just be happy when there are more stars on the sky than the last day. Try to make sure the exsistance of "two rabbits pounding steamed rice into cake" on the moon. (apparently there are different legends what's on the moon in each country, and this is Japanese.)

It's such a lovely quiet moment no one disturbs my own time, never like at work have to run to the phone and pick up two or three lines at the same time, whenever it rings even in my break time. Of course, I want to enjoy the time longer and stay up late, as always I will regret the next morning when I find my face marked by sleeping on my laptop and the messages left on MSN "hello? still there?"

I remember once I used to love morning. Finishing work in an Izakaya at 3am, going to a bar upstairs of my work and meeting our customers by accident who we have kicked out earlier, heading to a Karaoke and going home riding on my scooter with the orange dawn coming up from the Yokohama port side dazzling my eyes. That's all about my student life, and I liked seeing the dawn as if I was the one only knowing the beggining of the day in Japan.

If you are l
ooking forward to the next day, you will love to meet the morning. If not, I am sure you will find yourself relaxed when the moon is on the sky high instead of the sun brings you a new day.

I was shy when I was a child, but I could only sing a song in front of the moon and the stars, because I knew that they would never judge me in anything.
