It was also the same station that raided the home of Ippei Mizuhara's parents. Why ？ Because there is demand. Does that mean that the Japanese people are low?

My daughter, a high school student, received an invitation from the National Society of High School Scholars （ NSHSS ）. It says that only students with good grades are invited, that there are various advantages, etc. However, I am not sure about it because it costs $90 to join.
After all, what does NSHSS do for us, and if we join, will the benefits be worth the $90 or more ？
I would appreciate it if you could tell me if you have any experience with your child joining NSHSS or if you know more about it. Thank you in advance.

It is a scam because you pay $90 and get nothing. Anyone can get in, it doesn't mean anything and you should be a National AP Scholar. If you apply to a college and they say NSHSS, it doesn't mean anything.

If you have around 100 million yen, you should have a certificate of residence in Japan and maintain a bank account
If you are a Japanese with a bank account, you should be able to open a securities account
Of course you should get your own number
I don't think the yen will stay weak for long
but if you think so, that's a plus for Japanese exporters

some people praise Abenomics
but the current weak yen is
frankly a clear reflection of Japan's decline

What happened to the Japanese people ？?

About electronic pianos available at Costco in Japan

Question

I know this is a question for an American forum ？ but how do you say "88 keys, weighted" electronic piano in Japan ？ I would like to buy one from Costco in Japan if possible. I live in the U.S., but this is a gift for a family member in Japan as a celebration.

I understand 88 keys, but is "weighted" the piano touch in Japan? I would like to buy a piano that I can use for a while, so that I don't have to buy a new electronic piano when I start taking piano lessons.

Thank you very much.

Hello.
I am currently using a Roland FRP sold at Costco.
I also play classical piano, so I think I can help you.

First of all, there are many types of electronic pianos.
Weighted means that the keys are weighted like a real piano. This is for people who want to learn piano seriously like a classical piano.
However, the weighted keys may be tiring at first. That being said, the best thing about the weighted electronic piano is that with practice you can express delicate sounds.
So if you want to focus on "playing" the piano, I would recommend weighted.

I don't know much about piano touch, but I think it is the ability to change the volume of the sound depending on how hard you press the keys.

If you are just starting to make music, you don't really need the weighted feature. Instead, we recommend a "keyboard" that can produce sounds from a variety of sources and instruments.
It does not have the weight of an electronic piano, but it specializes in "inserting sounds into a music application," which is essential for music creation. It can produce not only piano sounds, but also drums, guitars, and almost any instrument sound you can think of, and you can put them into applications such as a computer to make music.
However, as I mentioned earlier, it doesn't have the "weight" of a real piano, so it is not suitable for practice.

Most electronic pianos fall into these two categories.

If you want to learn to play the piano, we recommend this electronic piano.
https://www.costco.com/roland-frp-2-acr-digital-piano-bundle.product.4000186636.html
I use it and it has a lot of accessories.

I recommend this keyboard for people who want to make music on a computer or other devices.
https://www.costco.com/casio-ct-x700-premium-portable-keyboard-bundle.product.100779619.html
It has 61 keys, but it has 600 instruments and sound sources. It has 61 keys, but it has 600 instruments and sound sources.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.

I think the reason strange people come to you is because you can't say no
I used to get tired of putting on a good face to people I didn't like, but
If I don't like this person when I first meet them, I usually end up not liking them afterwards
I try to focus on people I feel good with. I try to focus on people I feel comfortable with and let go of people I don't like immediately
If I don't leave early, it's a hassle to get involved with my friends and acquaintances

If I buy stocks, it's at my own risk.

Yes, that's right. It would be better if they did not start dating in the first place. It is true that such people do come close.

I try to focus on people I feel comfortable with and let go of people I don't like immediately
If I don't get away from them early, it will be troublesome after they get involved with my acquaintances and friends
You're right. You can bring a friend without a car from the beginning and they say it's close,

stock self-responsibility. But I trust people right away. Whether it's an acquaintance or a brokerage firm.
You're not sure of yourself, but I'll be careful.
I will cut ties with people like #111 as fast as I can. I will not even enter into a light relationship here.

People leave not only because they believe in you or not
there are many reasons

I have been finding it troublesome to hang out with people lately
it's not that I have any bad reasons
I honestly feel that I have no reason to hang out with them
I have left people I have been hanging out with due to inertia
I only spend time with people I enjoy

I don't enjoy casual conversations with people I enjoy
I think it's time to reset

I think it's time to reset.

I was able to spend my holidays slowly
I started to think about starting something new
I started to learn a lot
I got to know people who share the same values

I only share things I can share

At my age, no one fits everything
We only share the parts that fit each other

I feel very comfortable

So I have only a few friends that I can call friends
but I like them this much I've come to realize that I like it this way.

Nice to meet you.

I recently moved to Orange from Japan.

I enjoyed walking in Japan, so I was wondering if you could recommend any trails, hiking trails, or areas in the Orange County area where I can go for a short walk (about an hour ）) on the weekend. I don't walk in the parks in my neighborhood. I've been walking around the neighborhood parks, but I'm getting a little
bored with the same places.

Please let me know.
