Hello, I live in Irvine and would like to have my child's first meal at a Japanese restaurant.
I live in Irvine and would like to have a weaning ceremony for my child.

I am thinking of either of the above.

If you have any recommendations for Japanese restaurants or Japanese supermarkets in the Irvine or Los Angeles area where
you have held your first wedding ceremony or
actually purchased your snapper, please let us know ？

Thank you. <1464> Thank you very much.

How is the Great Park area for a Japanese person to live?
I have an elementary school child, and I am wondering if there are Japanese students in the class, if he/she can join ELD, if there are Japanese people living around him/her, if he/she can make friends with mothers, etc.
I am new here and don't know the area well, so I am having trouble.

If you can recommend any other areas, that would be great!

I think all of Irvine is basically safe and good for raising children ！
The area around Great park is a fun place to live with a new town and houses and lots of sports facilities and trails.

If your child attends ELD-only classes （ at College park, Culverdale, or University park, check ） you will make friends easily.
ELD is, as the name implies, a "learn English" class, so all the children are from families who have just arrived in the US.
There is a good chance there will be Japanese there, and even if they are not Japanese, they all have the same immigrant ？ expatriate ？ struggles.

I don't know where many Japanese live in Irvine.
I think there are many Asian people in the newer apartment complexes ？ and near Asian supermarkets ？ but you can't tell if they are Japanese or not by looking at them.
Also, maybe there are Japanese families living near the 3 ELD schools above, because they want to avoid pick-up and transfer as much as possible.
By the way, you might be able to get more information about Irvine on the "Vivinavi Orange county" site.

Irvine is a great place to live because of the small percentage of old people.
The city is also perfectly calculated and maintained, making it easy to get around.

It seems that everywhere you go, there are Japanese in every class. There are a lot of expatriates. I just get lumped in with the "wives of Irvine" crowd. I think it is safe and well maintained, and there is a lot of greenery. I have an image that many Japanese mothers say it is hard for them to play in the adjacent park after school.

Please let me know your opinion.
I lived in the U.S. for 10 years, but my mother asked me to come back to Japan because she was worried about being alone in her old age.
I was single in the U.S. but worked hard.

I was taking care of my mother while working full time back in Japan, but my health started to deteriorate and I realized that I could not continue to work
at the same time, so I quit the company. I was working happily in my new position and was receiving a monthly salary of 250,000 take-home pay.

I looked for a part time job this time, but it is only 100,000 a month since I work 3 times a week.
I am not married so I have to take care of myself in the future and when I was getting 250,000 I was saving 100,000
a month.

I am quitting my job to take care of my parents, so I would like to receive the amount I would receive if I worked 250,000 - 100,000 a month ＝ 150,000 a month from my mother for expenses
but she does not understand. Why do I have to pay
when I don't pay rent and I even pay for her meals ？
? She doesn't think about my life after my mother dies. What will she want me to do
when I'm 60 years old, taking care of her in her current condition?

My mother received an inheritance from my father and has money to spare. But she doesn't want to go into a nursing home.
Is my claim strange ？?

Humans, by nature, make the mistake of relying on others. It is the same with parents and children. You wipe your own ass by yourself.
If you have money, go into an institution or hire someone. Then you can spend all your money. If you leave it behind, the children won't appreciate it, because they take it for granted.
The best thing you can do is to think about your own retirement rather than your parents. No one will take care of you.

You can't count on American-born children.
Is it the same in Japan?
It is natural for parents to receive money
without compensation.
But why take care of them ？
In their old age, they will go to a facility or hire a care giver and use up all their assets
They will only be left with what they need for the final cleanup.

I would also like to know the conditions under which a junior high school student can attend a public junior high school in Los Angeles. Thank you in advance.

With an F-1 visa, it seems to be only 12 months.
I wrote before that I thought it was 9 months, but I was wrong （ or it changed ）.
However, residents can go there for free, but international students have to pay tuition.
And I think you will need a guardian, a kind of person who lives here.

I didn't know that the intersection of 237th st and Crenshaw prohibits going straight through from west to east （ I don't understand why it's prohibited to go straight through. ） I was ticketed.
I'm thinking of doing an online traffic school, but the online traffic school I took about 6 years ago was so easy that I could finish it in 30 minutes, but the online traffic school I took 3 years ago was broken up into chapters, The online traffic school I took 3 years ago was so easy that I could finish it in half an hour.
Do you know of anywhere that is easy enough to finish in 30 minutes or so ？?

Quite some time ago, the wife got a ticket and I took charge of the online traffic school （ tears ）. I happened to have 3 laptops and 1 desktop at home and was able to start different chapters on each at the same time, which was impressive （ tears ）. Testing was a piece of cake since I kept the screencaps of the parts I thought were important, about 30 minutes （ I think it was ？ ） and done （ time is money ）.

You need to go to traffic school properly and drive safely.
You'll start doing the same thing all over again.

I didn't know that it is forbidden to go straight through from west to east at a signalized intersection.
（ I don't understand why it is forbidden to go straight. ） I was ticketed.

I need to study driving laws again that you can't even understand the sign at the traffic light.

？
Did anyone see the FCI Japanese news broadcast on the morning of May 18? ？
In between the news footage, there was a voice that had nothing to do with the content of the news. I'm glad to see you again", and twice.
This voice had nothing to do with the news that was being broadcast at the time.
Is this a broadcast accident? ？
Was it on other people's TVs as well? ？
I didn't pay much attention the first time, but since it came in twice, it was like a psychic phenomenon and scared me a little. If anyone says they heard it too, I would be glad if you could respond.
If it was just in my house, it would be too scary ・ ・ ・

How to send packages from Hawaii at the lowest price

The last time I brought my stuff back from Hawaii by myself, I was charged a huge overage fee and it ended up being too heavy and not worth it.

Most of the contents are Hawaiian clothes, bags and souvenirs.

I don't know how much it weighs or anything since I haven't been to Hawaii yet. Last time I didn't send it, I checked it in and it cost me a lot of money. I knew it would be expensive, but I paid more than I thought I would, so I am looking for another way.
I was hoping someone who has lived in Hawaii or is familiar with Hawaii would know something about this, but I didn't expect to be blamed like this and I'm sorry for writing this.
