The heat

It's really hotting up here in Tokyo at the moment, and even with my new "cool biz" suit, I find myself being reduced to a puddle of sweat on a regular basis. The heat is really affecting Miyu too, as her body temperature is higher due to the baby. So, we went down to Bic Camera yesterday, and bought a neat little electronic fan for the bedroom. On starting it up back home though, we found the noise it made at top speed was akin to a airplane taking off, and hence not condusive to entering the land of nod...
I met an interesting person last week. He'd just started working at one of the top investment banks, but previous to joining had been a doctor. I asked him why he had decided to change careers, especially after devoting 8 years to the medical profession, 6 of which were as a student. He said he had always had two passions in life - medicine and investments. After two years in medicine, he realized he wouldn't be able to excel in the job, so changed over before it was too late.
So there you go. Just goes to show it's never too late to change your mind about something.
