 How are you? 你好吗？

Есть мнение, что люди стали меньше читать...

Ты со мной? 

Кино или книги?

Halo! Wah, sudah lama ya! Apa kabar semua? 
Saya baru kembali ke Jepang, dari perjalanan ke luar negeri selama kira-kira dua bulan. Saya sedikit capek, jadi akhir minggu, saya terus tidur haha… 
Kali ini, saya mau sedikit bercerita tentang perjalanan saya dengan pesawat, waktu saya kembali ke Jepang. Saat pesawat saya ada di atas samudra pasifik, tiba-tiba pilot bilang "Karena ada masalah dengan mesin pesawat, kita akan kembali ke tempat asal"  Saya kaget dan takut!! Eh, ada apa ini? Kami sudah terbang sekitar 7 jam, dan harus kembali lagi?! 
Mungkin Pilot juga bingung dan panik ya, tapi Pilot pasti sudah berpikir dengan kepala dingin dan memutuskan yang terbaik untuk semua. "Berpikir dengan kepala dingin" artinya "berpikir dengan tenang", "Think calmly", dan di Bahasa Jepang artinya "冷静に考えます”.
Semua penumpang di dalam pesawat juga tidak panik dan tidak marah. Mereka menghadapi situasi ini dengan kepala dingin. Hebat ya! Akhirnya, kami bisa terbang lagi dan sampai di Jepang dengan selamat. 
Apa kalian pernah punya situasi seperti ini? Di antara kalian, pasti pernah ada di situasi yang menakutkan atau situasi yang membuat sangat marah. Saya harap, dengan pengalaman saya kali ini, kita bisa selalu ingat, berpikir dengan kepala dingin, biasanya akan selalu mendapat hasil yang lebih baik daripada berpikir terburu-buru. Kalian setuju?
Ok, selamat beraktivitas semuanya! ^^

FIVE-MINUTE POLISH TALES

啊！小王子，就这样，我逐渐懂得了你那忧郁的生活。
Oh, little prince! Bit by bit I came to understand the secrets of your sad little life.
过去相当长的时间里你唯一的乐趣就是观赏那夕阳西下的温柔晚景。
For a long time you had found your only entertainment in the quiet pleasure of looking at the sunset.
这个新的细节，是我在第四天早晨知道的。
I learned that new detail on the morning of the fourth day,
你当时对我说道：“我喜欢看日落。我们去看一回日落吧！”
when you said to me: "I am very fond of sunsets. Come, let us go look at a sunset now."
“可是得等着…，”我说，“等什么？”
"But we must wait," I said. "Wait? For what?"
等太阳落山。

For the sunset. We must wait until it is time.
开始，你显得很惊奇的样子，
At first you seemed to be very much surprised.
随后你笑自己的糊涂。
And then you laughed to yourself.
你对我说：“我总以为是在我的家乡呢！”
You said to me: "I am always thinking that I am at home!"
确实，大家都知道，在美国是正午时分，在法国，正夕阳西下，
Just so. Everybody knows that when it is noon in the United States the sun is setting over France.
只要在一分钟内赶到法国就可看到日落。
If you could try to France in one minute, you could go straight into the sunset, right from noon.
可惜法国是那么的遥远。
Unfortunately, France is too far away for that.
而在你那样的小行星上，你只要把你的椅子挪动几步就行了。
But on your tiny planet, my little prince, all you need do is move your chair a few steps.
这样，你便可随时看到你想看的夕阳余辉…
You can see the day end and the twilight falling whenever you like...
“一天”，你对我说，“我看见过四十三次日落”。
"One day," you said to me, "I saw the sunset forty-four times!"
过一会儿，你又说：“你知道，当人们感到非常苦闷时，总是喜欢日落的。”
And a little later you added: "You know –one loves the sunset, when one is so sad."
“一天四十三次，你怎么会这么苦闷？”我问。
"Were you so sad, then?" I asked, "on the day of the forty-four sunsets?"
小王子没有回答。
But the little prince made no reply.
