Good morning! It’s Masuke here. I went for my morning walk full of energy again this morning. It’s muggy here in Tokyo. How’s the weather where you are?

I’m Masuke, aged 17. The rain stopped today, so I was able to go for a walk!

Zzz

It’s been a while, but both Masuke and I are doing well! Two typhoons have hit Japan, and it’s been raining non-stop. We’ve had to put our walks on hold for now.

Good morning! I’m Masuke, aged 17. I only ate about half my breakfast, so I went for a walk first. I wonder if I’ll eat the rest when I get back.

I’m Masuke, aged 17. I managed to go for a brisk walk this morning! I’ve started eating my meals well again, and I feel like I’m gradually getting better.

Good morning! I’m Masuke, aged 17. I had a poo this morning and went for a lively walk. I’ll make the most of every day, just as usual.

I had an IV drip last week and am currently taking medication. I’ve learnt to recognise the bitter taste of the medicine, so I’m finding it hard to eat. I’m putting my trust in my GP’s advice that it’s not a problem as long as I don’t lose too much weight.

Good morning. I’m Masuke, aged 17. My walk this morning went well; I left some of my carrots uneaten, and I took my medicine wrapped in sweet potato. 💩 Once! Thank you so much for all your messages. I’ll reply to them bit by bit! Sat

TGIF🙌

Good morning. I’m Masuke, aged 17. This morning, I ate 80% of my breakfast, took my medicine and went for a walk as usual. 💩. It really makes me realise just how happy I am to be able to post ‘as usual’.

Good morning! It’s raining this morning, so we’ve skipped our walk. He ate 80% of his breakfast. He hasn’t had a poo yet. I’m working from home today, so I’ll be keeping an eye on him.

In the evening, I had an IV drip and was given some stomach medicine. As soon as I got home, he went to the toilet twice and seems to be in pretty good spirits. It seems he hadn’t been getting enough water. I’ve learnt my lesson.

Good morning! I’m Masuke, aged 17. Over the last few days, I haven’t been eating much and haven’t been feeling well, so I haven’t been able to go for a walk. I’ve been trying different ways to make my meals more appealing, and this morning I managed to finish my meal and go for a walk.

Good Night🖐️

I’ve created a new profile picture. It’s Masuke and me. What do you think?

These photos have turned out like this！ ↓↓↓↓↓ ↓↓↓↓↓ ↓↓↓↓↓

I’m Masuke, and I’m 17. Good morning! I’ve left almost all my breakfast uneaten this morning. I’m a bit worried, so I’m going for a slightly longer walk, and when I get back, I’ll either eat it or give it another go. I did eat the cheese snack, though (am I just being spoilt?).

I’m Masuke, 17 years old. Good morning! It’s cloudy in Tokyo this morning. It feels quite pleasant. Let’s give it our all today—it’s Friday!

I’m Masuke, aged 17. I’m out for a leisurely walk this morning. I sprinkled some new supplements on my food, but I left a little bit behind... I’ll keep an eye on things and introduce them gradually.

I’m Masuke, and I’m 17. It’s a bit chilly in Tokyo this morning. How’s the weather where you are?

Good morning! It’s been quite rainy this week, so it’s been a while since I took Masuke for a walk. He’s doing well.

Good morning! I’m Masuke, aged 17. I overslept a bit this morning, but I’m enjoying a walk. It’s quite hot in Tokyo. I’m looking forward to Saturday.

I'm Masuke, and I'm 17. I stopped feeding him prescription food and revised his diet. He seems to be enjoying his meals.

I lost a little weight during yesterday’s house call. I might have cut back too much on my treats to protect my kidneys... Starting this year, I’ve decided to stop getting the combination vaccine.

I'm Masuke, and I'm 17. I've started wearing a neck cooler! It's only May... What am I going to do when it's the height of summer...?

This is a letter from Masuke. I’m going to cherish our days off when we can doze off together.

Just FUN!!

Good morning! I’m Masuke, and I’m 17 years old. When I say, “Let’s go for a walk,” he starts walking slowly. I wonder if he’s still half-asleep?

Good morning! Masuke is starting his day with a walk this morning. He got a haircut yesterday. Doesn’t he look cute?

I'm Masuke, and I'm 17. It's that time of year when dogs are lying on the floor!

Good morning! I'm Masuke, and I'm 17 years old. This morning, I feel like I could dive down forever.

💤

I'm Masuke, and I'm 17. Good morning! It's a nice day today. I saw some mosquitoes flying around. I'd better put on some bug spray!

Today, I put anti-slip pads on the soles of his shoes. Now that he doesn’t slip anymore, he’s started running around the house.

Masuke on May 15, 2011.

Good morning! This is Masuke. I had a lot to go over today, so my morning walk took longer than usual.

Good evening! I'm Masuke, 17 years old. This is my bedtime ritual.

Good morning! This morning, Masuke is enjoying the tunnel of leaves.

Masuke was there to greet me when I got back from my business trip to Osaka!

Masuke, it fits perfectly.

i see the day of the exam as a chance to ask myself once again why I want to earn this certification. Ultimately, it all comes down to the fact that I love my work, I love the version of myself that’s working, and I love chatting with people—so I want to keep doing a job where chatting is my reward.

I'm Masuke, and I'm 17. I'm starting my day with a walk again this morning!

We're studying together.

I'm Masuke, and I'm 17. He came over here looking sleepy, so I'm petting him.

I’m Masuke, and I’m 17 years old. This morning, after doing some doggy drills, I crawled through a tunnel of fallen leaves. It makes me happy to see Masuke doing so well. How about you all?

I'm Masuke, and I'm 17 years old. I went for a walk this morning, full of energy!

I'm Masuke, 17 years old. Today, the two of us slept in. It feels like the last day of the long weekend! We're just going to relax at home.

Today is Children’s Day, a national holiday in Japan. It’s been 17 years since Masuke first came into my life (this is Masuke on his first day). I hope you’ll stay with me forever.

My mock exam results were: ・Finance: 84 points ・Management: 59 points ・system: 68 points Three of the four questions I got wrong in Finance were simple mistakes; I should have gotten four questions right in Management; and in systems, there were many topics I didn’t understand.
