What I was doing...

I applied for a private research grant this morning.

After that, I worked on preparations for students project.

I was getting ready for tomorrows fieldwork in Kutchan, but my lower back is bad. 

The weather does not look promising either, so I am considering postponing.

I went to observe the hearing on the lawsuit regarding separate surnames for married couples. 

I was surprised to find a student from my seminar there as well. 

I was even more surprised when he raised their hand at the post-hearing briefing to share his thoughts. 

It was a wonderful thing to see.

Back at the university, I tried to get some work done, but I could not concentrate and made little progress.

What was I doing today???

I did some university works.

I met with seminar students and others.

I graded and provided feedback on exam answers.

I developed a proposal for a private research grant.

I can not pursue my research theme.

Involving in the study of disaster recovery law, I am concerned about the Kumamoto earthquakes.

I saw the act that violated good faith.

I want nothing to do with such people or such behavior.

I was still feeling the fatigue from yesterdays driving. 

I had a slight headache—likely due to heat exhaustion, but I managed to finish the task for the other university.

I also finished other necessary university works.

I have no vacation.

I must read many books and documents and think about many issues, and write many articles.

I do my best.

I inspected vacant lots and abandoned houses in Kushiro and Nemuro. 

There are so many.

What really caught my eye, though, were the abandoned houses and warehouses on farmland and pastures—they are completely dilapidated.

I need to figure out how to handle this.

Driving between Nemuro and Sapporo was too hard...

I attended a seminar on vacant houses organized by the Administrative Scrivener Association. 

It was a great success, which was wonderful to see. 

I was also surprised and delighted to run into some old acquaintances.

Since the seminar finished a bit early, I took the opportunity to inspect a mega-solar project site in Kushiro.

Tomorrow, I will be inspecting more vacant houses and empty lots.

I have not been able to get any studying done, but it can not be helped.

I  work hard starting the day after tomorrow.
