サプライズ☆パーティー
20日の夕方、上野さんと一緒に帰宅。ドアを開けると!!!
Ueno-san and I came home in the evening of 20th, and there...
なんと、ママさん、Rico(妹)、Mioさん、Kolaが、クラッカーでお出迎えしてくれました。どうやら上野さんがサプライズパーティーを企画してくれていたようで、寒い台所でみんな待機していてくれました。
What a nice surprise!!! My mom, Rico (my younger sister), Mio-san, Kola were welcoming me with crackers! Apparently Ueno-san organized this for my birthday, and they were waiting for us in our cold kitchen.
びっくりしたー!!!
You all surprised me!!!
テーブルには、所狭しと食べ物と飲み物が。ママさんは手作りのお寿司を、Mioさんは、スウェーデン風ミートボールを作ってきてくれました。美味しかったー♪
There was a lot of food that might be more than the table can actually hold. My mom cooked some hand-made sushis, and Mio-san cooked Swedish meatballs. These were awesome!
見て!Mioさん作のポテトサラダツリー!パプリカといちごで「30」になっています、かわいー♪
Look! Potato salad tree designed and cooked by Mio-san! The red bell pepper and strawberry look like "30" lovely!
ママさん作のバースデーケーキ、見た目も味も最高!
The birthday cake baked by mom was great!
プレゼントターイム!ママさんからは、今週家族みんなで参加予定のセミナー代をいただきました。写真の包みはmackeyから。
The best time was to open the presents! My mom gave me a gift I can use for the seminar we plan to attend this week. The package on the photo was from mackey, my best friend.
中身は、オレンジの柄がおしゃれなガラスのまな板と、うさぎのかたちをした塩・コショーのセット。実はこのうさぎ、スウェーデンで見つけて、買おうか迷った品物でした。まさかこうして手元にやって来るなんて!
mackey gave me this glass cutting board that has an orange design, and a set of salt and black pepper with rabbit design. Actually I found this set in Sweden and considered buying. What a nice surprise that it came from mackey!
Mioさんからは、なんとセクシー下着をいただきました!「上野さんの方が喜ぶかしら」というMioさんのコメントに、みんなで大爆笑!!!
Mio-san gave me 2 pairs of sexy underware! Mio-san was more concerned about if Ueno-san liked them or not...
私がコーヒー好きなのを知っているのか、Kolaからはコーヒーをいただきました。
Kola gave me a set of coffee, my favorite drink!
そして上野さんからは、手作りのスライドショーを披露してもらいました。なんと、私が産まれたときからの30年間の選りすぐりの写真約100枚が、音楽と一緒に流れてきてまるでドラマのようでした!私の好きな曲、Alicia Keysの"Diary"と、Dreams Come Trueの「何度でも」にぴったり合わせてあって、編集にも相当時間がかかったようです。私が日本に戻る前に、何度も村上実家に通ってスキャンしたようです。編集は、私に隠れてこっそりやっていたみたい、超感動的でした。ちなみに、写真の画面右側にいるはだかんぼの子供が私、左が父です。
And Ueno-san had prepared for the slide-show for me. It was a selection of photos from my childhood to now (actually the day's photo was included as well) with my two favorite songs, one is "Diary" by Alicia Keys and the other is "Nan do demo" by Dreams Come True. The editing was perfect! He must have spent a lot of time to fit all the photos with the music. He scanned all the photos from my mom's albums before I came back from Sweden, and edited when I was not around. It was so impressive, I was moved a lot. By the way, the baby on the right in the screen is me and the left guy is my dad.
今までの人生の中で、最高の誕生日でした。みんな、本当にありがとう!
It was the best birthday in my life. Thank you all for everything!
