pekoさんの おぼえた日記 - 2012年6月6日(水)

Today is the special day that comes around once in a hundred years. that means we can observe Venus passing the surface of the sun.

I woke up to find that it was raining cats and dogs. I didn't think I could see it. So I decided to go out to lunch with a friend of mine in neighbourhood. She said that a Taiwanesen restaurant had opened nearby. While we were eating, it stopped raining and the sun turned up. OMG! But I didn't want to leave my ramen. When we finished eating and went out of the restaurant, I found the same sky as usual. It is said that the next chance will be 105 years later. Could I live long until then? Impossible! I missed the precious chance.

When I came home, I visited the Internet to see the passing Venus. It was like a black, tiny insect.

今日は１００年に一度の特別な日。金星が太陽の表面を通過する。

目を覚ましたら、土砂降りの雨だった。こりゃだめだと思ったから、近所の友だちとランチに行くことにした。近くに台湾料理の店ができたんだって。　食事中雨がやみ、太陽が出てきた。あーあ！ラーメンを残して出て行きたくはなかった。食べ終わって外に出たら、いつもと同じ空だった。今度は１０５年後だって。それまで私、長生きするかな？　ムリ！　貴重なチャンスを逃してしまった。

家に帰ってネットを見た。何だか、黒くて小さな虫みたいな金星だった。
