ファンは多いかもしれません。休養十分だったので，アウェイでも
前半からガンガン行って欲しかったと多くのファンは思っているはず。
昨日のセレンさんのライブ，満員御礼だったらしく，行っても入れなかった
可能性を考えると，スルーして，正解だったようですわ。
Peatixがクソ重くて，まったく手続きできないですわ。もしかしたら，満員御礼？
恐らくアプリ優先で，WEB経由は軽視されているんではないかと思います。
ということで，退会手続きをしました。高橋編集長の話とワークショップで，
十分元とれると計算できますし，セレン師匠の話も毒にはならないはずなので，
残念ですわ。同じ日の高校の同窓会，キャンセルしちゃったのに。orz
TOEIC L&R対策
神崎正哉・Daniel Warriner著『新TOEIC TEST「正解」一直線増補コンパクト版』IBC，2008年
目の状態が回復途上なので，問題演習は行なわず，第４部必ず出る単語リスト，
第５部リスニング５５本ノックを繰り返しました。
おまけその１ NHKカルチャーラジオ
伊藤詔子『はじめてのソロー』第１回「ソローの青年期」
ストリーミングで聞けなくなると困るので，急いで，第１回と第２回は今週中に
聞いておこうと思い，TOEICスピーキング練習用にインストールしたソフトで
録音しつつ，聞きました。基本的に，テキストに沿った形での進行でした。
I borrowed an axe and went down to the woods by Walden Pond, nearest to
where I intended to build my house, and began to cut down some tall,
arrowy white pines, still in their youth, for timber.
(omission)
The owner of the axe, as he released his hold on it, said that it was
the apple of his eve: but I returned it sharper than I received it.
Henry David Thoreau, The Walden
