Mina-san, this was a pretty crazy story, but as things go here during hanami, I don’t think it’s so far fetched.

Wow! They’re getting married?!

Anyone else been following the intro mini-drama?
About the lesson, I’d love to try a drinking contest under the cherry blosssoms, but no cherry blossoms where I live.

“You will get a rocket from our president if you lose?”
That makes no sense. At least, I’ve never heard this phrase and I have no idea what it means. Wouldn’t a better translation have been “You’ll get a good chewing out by the president if you lose”?

いいな~ … 青山出版の桜井さんは今桜の下に寝るのことができますね!でも彼は花見をするがもうちょっと難しいと思いますよ!これは日本人の会社に対して献身の例ですよね!
ところで、“お酒で決めましょう”って言いましたが、どうしてテキーラを飲んでいますか? 日本酒はテキーラよりおいしいと思います。。。

ラップトップを持っていって、桜の下で仕事をするなんでどうでしょう。そうしたら、会社のお花見の場所も取れるし・・・。
ピーターが許してくれるなら、桜の下で仕事したいなぁ・・・。

きれいですよね。
上海でも見えるよ.
The cherry blossoms in Shanghai are a bit more grubby than in Japan though. More grey. EVERYTHING’s very clean in Japan though, ね?
