Learning from book.

As new job, I need to learn a lot of new things. Not only for just industrial buziness scheme, also technology as well. Because I didn’t major in Agriculture area, there are many new things for me. But it’s very fun to learn it.

During these learning process, reading book is the shortest way to quickly get knowledges. Of course, I can learn from colleagues and new enviroment.  Point in here is how much i can quickly be one of the matured person in work place. Otherwise, it’s also hard to get trust from them. Fortunetley there are many latest industrial and knowledges books in Japanese. But one thing I got aware is less book to learn technologies like how the logic works on precision farming by “Japanese”, although there are many Japanese papers in internet and also competitor’s developed products related precision farming or precision Agriculture technology, it’s called as “PA” which is I’m challenging.

In this situation, I got information about good books in English to learn that area. Unfortunetly there are many rich books in English for this area, not only this area, also for more other technologies area…. One of the books is below.


Practical Mathematics for Precision Farming (ASA, CSSA, and SSSA Books)

I don’t know why these kinds of practical books in Japanese are less… especially academical textbooks published by Japanese has only knowledge based book, no practical books. just reading knowledge based books does not make good memories on me. it’s easy for me by answering more sample question as repeated lesson.

2022 Target

Let me look back this year’s achievement and set 2022 new target by using KPT method.

2021 Target

Keep

  • Well rode on Roadbike as basic exercise with GR3.

Same as 2020, my Roadbike life is basement for regular exercise to keep good health condition under pandemic world. Also travel with my roadbike to several place in Japan and got new bike on Dec 2021, so would like to keep this basic habit in routine.

  • Finally got chance to work in different filed from online marketing.

As I posted here, from Jan 2022, my main work will be changed to agricultural industry. Actually in recent year’s target, repeatedly raise the target to find new thing for main work. Finally made it, and new journey will be just starting. So there may be many difficulty and challenges since no experience in the filed. To aim be profession this area, efforts to get expertise will be kept. 

Problem 

  • Less Practice for Violin

Because of changed life style, I faced difficulty to practice violin in my life due to sound of violin. So although still wanted to practice it, need to consider time allocation and priority for this…

Try

  • Maintaining English Ability.

Since my next working place is more Japan domestic company and product target may be mostly in Japan, of course there are some potential to expand it to out side of Japan and I need to make the best effort to realise it. But as short team, I should concentrate to learn and be mature for the new filed first. So somehow, like writing blog in English or take conversation online class will be continued to maintain English ability.

  • – Improving cooking skill

I did not post this topic in here. But sometime post the cooking photos in Instagram and Twitter. Still leaning and trying many thing by watching YouTube. Will  keep that in daily life.

Repeatedly wrote in here, taking new job is most challenge thing for me in 2022. So once I will focus on that as much as possible! 

First Post to Medium

One of the afraid after changing job is getting far from English environment, to smoothly change Working domain, I chose Japanese company rather than global company. Japan is not native country for English and quite strong wall for other languages although got economically success in 20 century.. (can’t say in 21 century right now….). So how I can keep ability to use English is challenging. Then one of the effort I’m doing is reading new professional area books in English and writing article on here and 
Medium“.  Originally English blog post was also on “Note“. but it seems no English reader in that site. So I will continually use Note for Japanese casual article and tried to use “Medium” for English writing.

Today I finally published one article on Medium as below! I hope I can continue to post some article on there….

New RoadBike

[Ride] Round the islands in Miyako&Tarama

Riding by Roadbike in island is exciting and enjoyable with atmosphere which is quite far from daily urban life. This time, I tried to make Round The Islands(RTI) in Miyako and Tarama, Okinawa Pref. Here is a place in Okinawa perf. It’s located in west side of Okinawa near Taiwan Island. I have visited to more west side island “Ishigaki” and “Yonaguni” in past. Then this Time I chose those islands because of no visits so far. There are direct flights from Tokyo(Haneda) to Miyako-islands and two round trip flights a day between Miyako and Tarama by Japan Airlines Group.

 

Miyako Island is very famous for triathlon in summer. Because of covid 19, not hold the event in 2020 and 2021. According to taxi driver, they are planning to hold it in 2022 finally. I don’t have any intention to participate it because my body basic power is not enough to accomplish the toughness sport event. But this this, referring the Roadbike course to make my ride.

Ride in Miayko island

Originally I supposed that I can ride all in a day. But after landed to Miyako Airport, I realised that winter winds in Miyako is very strong and mostly no time to stop the winds. So I changed my riding plan by divided it to two days. After reached to Hotel in Kurumi Island, 3 hours was remained before sunset, then tried to ride from Kurumi island to “Shimoji” and Irabu island. And 2nd day was started from Irabu Bridge to Ikema island and rest of Miyako island. Especially to go up to north side in entire route, ahead winds from north was so strong and can’t make good speed as usual… and even if under sunlight, wind on the big three bridges were very strong and it’s hard to ride straightly. So rather than enjoying sightsee from bridges, I was so afraid and scare to across the bridges….. if you want to across the bridge without scared, highly recommended to come to Miayko in Summer season.

Ride in Tarama island

Tarama island is very famous for clean, beautiful blue ocean and diving. It seems that total population in the island is around 1,200 people. Flight time from Miyao was only 20 mins. Another way to visit this island from Miyako is car ferry which has one round trip a day. It takes mostly 2 hours to Tarama Island. There is a few restaurant and shops for visiter. Island itself is not so big, so it’s just 1 hour to make round the island. I stayed only a few hours between 1st and 2nd flights in a day. if you have enough time, better to stay a few days to enjoy atmosphere. but there are not many place to visit, so enjoying slow time is main purpose to stay in here.

Fully enjoyed 2.5 days rides in those islands in Dec 2021. Hope I can visit more other islands in Okinawa near future.
