Saint Paul's (Rikkyo) University 立教大学





As some of you may know, on Thursdays I taught at Rikkyo University (aka: St Paul's) for a semester. I will be teaching there again starting this October but this time on Monday's and Thursday's.

Rikkyo is a very pretty university and has an English look to it. I recommend it for the visual pleasure of it.

I enjoy the classes I taught there and the students are wonderful. The course theme I selected was to discuss about a company that the students would like to work at someday in the future or they just are interested in a particular company.

At the end of the course each student had to presentation on the information we talked about in class and their research into the company they choose. All of the students amazing well, considering the fact that they had to study and prepare for exams & reports. I am very proud of all of them.

If I were to give an M.V.P. award, it would go to Ryousuke for the amount of research he did and the passion in which he displayed. I sincerely hope that he does try to join the company hr did his presentation on.

My final words to him, and for everyone is: "Nothing is impossible, but not to try must be impossible" and "Just try, the worst they can say is no". 

To all the students, I wish the the greatest success in your future endeavours and hopefully we may meet again.

Chikako Yamashita, Photographic Art Work



One of my friends, CHICAKO YAMASHITA ( 山下千香子 ),  recently had a exhibition of her photographic art work. 


The title of the exhibition was " SHIMMERING " or " YURAGI ( ゆらぎ ) " in Japanese.



I really like her work and I believe that you too will also like her work.


Chicako also does commercial work as well, so if you want to get the perfect image or photograph for your business needs, wall art - decorative, personal request, etc then Chikako is the person you must definitely hire.


Here are the links to her web-site and blog:
