If "it never rains much"
the blue sky of California
it never rains in southern California

#1060 Roachiman,

I moved from NY to LA around 1971, so the hit song at that time was

Albert Hammond - It Never Rains in Southern California
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=meDpNwem0Vo&list=RDmeDpNwem0Vo&start_radio=1

This was the song. I had heard about it, but the fact that it hardly rains means that I can ride my Motorcycle everyday. So I took a leap of faith, ate lunch at Famous Star and cheap today's specials at Norms Restaurant in the evening, saved up money throughout the year, and bought a new Storts Star that cost less than a Harley-Davidson Full Dress. I bought a new car, a Storts Star, which costs less than a Harley-Davidson Full Dress.

Around 1971, there were still few skyscrapers
and the Bonaventure Hotel was completed and opened in 1976.
From New York, it's like going to Going Up The Country.

Have you ever had "homesickness （ homesickness ）" when you first arrived here from Japan?

I did. My first time in the U.S. was in the City of New York, where I stayed at the apartment of an older colleague who had come before me. Naturally, I could speak Japanese 24 hours a day, so I felt totally at ease, but I could not stay there for long, so I asked him to choose a suitable rental room from the Rent Room section in the Classified Section of the New York Times or some other local newspaper, and I called him and asked him to show me the room. I called him and asked him to show me the room at that location.

I don't understand the connection between rented rooms and homesickness. When you went to see the room, did you suffer from sick building syndrome and became homesick due to mental shock? Did you make the branch manager or senior staff responsible for causing the problem?

I'm sure there are many ways, but the one that comes to mind is the Toll road （ toll road ） payment system.
You can make an account online and register your credit card and it will be paid automatically even after you pass through.
When I went back to Japan for a long time, I forgot my ETC card and had to pay in cash every time....

I think it has something to do with service, but the return system. Most stores in the U.S. allow smooth returns within about 30 days, even if the item is unboxed.
Shopping in Japan is time consuming because you have to look at the product carefully, touch it, and think about it because you cannot return it.

As for new cars, the Prius is a "buy" regardless of gasoline price trends.

In the case of a used car, how the previous owner drove the car has a big impact, so when purchasing a car, please have it professionally inspected before making a purchase decision, even if you pay the cost. This can be said for any car.

We, a late-retired couple, bought a Prius as a new car more than 10 years ago, but we do not use it for commuting and do not make frequent long trips, so the mileage is very low and we change the oil regularly, so it is running fine without any trouble. Sorry, this is not helpful at all.

Whether or not a Hybrid is a good buy depends on your lifestyle. I drive a Toyota SUV Hybrid.

My car is 15 years old, 160,000 miles and gets better gas mileage than the new 2025 Mazda CX-5 I recently bought for my daughter.
Hybrids need to be kept for 6 － 8 years or more to make money, taking into account the rising cost of gasoline. If you plan to drive it all the time, a hybrid is a good choice. If you plan to drive it all the time, a hybrid is the way to go.

It occurred to me that if you don't like old-fashioned names, you should also avoid old-fashioned names like John or Mary.

You can get an answer by typing in Google AI mode "Is it possible to change my name to John or Mary in American style when I become a US citizen ？?".
Only the first sentence will be listed. "Yes, it is possible to legally ・ officially change your name to an American-style name such as "John" or "Mary" when you obtain US citizenship （ citizenship ）."

I can't do John or Mary. You have to write it alphabetically.

John is possible, but it is a man's name.

In Korean, you can write Jeon, Jeong, or Jong as a woman's name.

Also, you can change your name in court as much as you want without taking your nationality.

You can change your name to whatever you want at the Oath Ceremony when you get your citizenship.
I didn't know that, so I didn't think about it beforehand. ？ ？ When I was wondering what to do, I saw a sign that said "Juicy Burger" standing where they were selling hamburgers. I thought for a moment about changing my last name to "Juicyburger" as a joke, but in the end I didn't. It's easy to change it on the spot, but if you want to change it later, you have to apply for it at the court and get it approved, which is a hassle.

I see you are being posted next month, that's exciting.
I used to work at a factory too, and I used to have lunch at
① a nearby restaurant
② bread from 7-Eleven ・ lunch boxes
③ the factory canteen
I changed these depending on my mood.
Restaurants were often crowded during lunch breaks and meals were not finished within the break time
so we often ate in the factory cafeteria.
Seven's lunch boxes were boring and bad.
I recommend you bring pickled plums, friquettes, rice, instant miso soup, etc.
to change the menu of the factory cafeteria ！.
The factory cafeteria may have a variety of menu items, but
many of them are too spicy, and the menu items that Japanese can order are limited.
Good luck and enjoy your work.
HIRO
