It was quite tragic. Over the last eight weeks, a huge amount of weeds built up in my garden and my tomatoes had the nerve to die on me. But thanks to Saeki-kun, I managed to replace them with some lovely begonias, in a shade I haven't seen before ( Read more... )

I can understand the hesitancy to get one of these things. It's so easy to be found by anyone and it's all rather daunting. But, that being said, if you do need anything else to try and bribe him, my deli usually has a nice selection of sweets and tea.

And well done on your sponsorship with Nike. Will you be wearing their attire during your tournaments?

Ahh, maybe I shall visit and bribe Sanada with some fresh tea and mochi. What sorts of tea do you sell?

Thank you very much Tachibana-san. And yes I will be wearing Nike clothing. I have asked for something that is yellow for school pride ^^;

Ahh, I've heard they aren't very good at what they do ^^;. And they aren't usually aesthetically pleasing either. But if Akaya's suggestion doesn't work, I might just have to try that.

Congrats on the sponsorship, Buchou! :D I've been cheering you on whenever I catch up on tennis news.

Getting the birds to back off is easy. Take a few old CDs and hang them around the area. The sunlight flashing off of them will keep the birds away from your plants. ^_^ Here, like this!

Ahh, thank you, Akaya! It's good to know that you're following me. Have you been sending fanmail too?

Ahh, I'd never thought of that! Does it really work? If it does, I'll be very grateful ^__^

I always do, when I unbury myself from my schoolwork. Just one time, promise.

I've never had a garden, but one of the other shelter volunteers says it keeps birds off of her cherry tree until she can pick the fruit. Hopefully it'll help you too!

Don't overwork yourself! I'd hate to see my protegé die from schoolwork, of all things. But it's good to see that you found your passion. Just have some fun too. I had a suspicion that one letter was from you. You can just send me an email, you know.

Well, it seems to be working so far ^_^. I'll see how my garden holds up after Wimbledon.
