学会?旅行?...Conference or journey?

今週学会に行きました。発表はしませんでしたが、新しい知識を得るには最高の場なのでいきました。 研究者ってある意味ではひとつの営業マンのようです。すでに結果が出た研究を研究してもしょうがないので常に最前線のものに関する情報を集めなければなりません。そして、そこから何か自分の研究にヒントがあればと思って先生にお願いして行かせていただきました。
学会はなんとリゾート地のハウステンボスで行われました。宿泊と交通手段などすべて日本人の学生に任せました。それで宿泊はなんとリゾート地のホテルでした。ホテルといってもログハウスみたいな感じの4人用の部屋でした。リビングあり、2つのツインリームとお風呂という感じでした。正直あんな贅沢な気分は初めてです。サービスに感動しました。遅れ迎え、部屋の掃除、朝食の贅沢さ...ヤバイです。さすがリゾート地だと思いました。研究費で贅沢していましたので凄い申し訳ない気分でした。でもその分しっかりと学会の発表を聞いていて、得たことも多かったです。やっぱり行ってよかったと思いました。自分の研究に役立つ発表が多かったです。ヒントもたくさんもらいました。
いつも思いますが、自分の原点を振り返ってみれば今日の自分は他人はもちろん自分も想像しませんでした。毎日田んぼで仕事して、学校の制服は親戚からもらったあの自分がリゾートホテルで泊まって、自由に研究できる人になるなんて誰が想像するでしょうか。人の運命って分からないものですね。努力して誠実でしっかりすれば少なかれ多かれ結果がついてくると思います。

My academic conference

This week I went to join academic conference in Nagasaki. The conference was held at a resort called Huis Ten Bosch. I went with japanese student group. They managed all the travel moyen, and hotel for me too. It was the research fund which was used for this trip. As a researcher, we must know the newest technology studied. It is no use if we do research on the existed technology. Moreover, we can earn alot from academic conference because we can get hints to develop our research. Talking about the hotel, yeah the service was perfect. To be honest, it was my first time to be that rich feeling. There was special car drive us when we want to go anywhere.
Well, my main purpose was to find the hints for my research and I have never forgot that. I earned a lot from the conference. There are many new technology introduced. There were also researches that gave many hint for my research too.
There is one thing I always think of. From my origin as a poor student from country side who worked at rice field and got school uniforms from my relatives, I could not imagine I could have chance to do my research freely like today. That's why I believe on the effort more than luck. If we make effort, live with loyalty, and never give up, the result does come along. Is that right for only me?

Hahaha, not exactly. They were unique one produced by many individuals. I found the old one with the price of more than 20 million yen, but unfortunately there were only picture so I can't take those pictures. For me, I can't find somewhere so good that it's price should be that high.
