as you know, miki was a university student and she came in to see us only once or twice a week. but after graduation she got full-time employment. japanese companies are a lot different from american companies in that your first few years you are truly at the lowest possible position on the totem-pole. you work long hours and often have obligatory drinking parties with your boss and co-workers for the sake of "team-building" etc. if her company is like that (and i get the feeling it is), she doesn't really have a lot of free time.
that said, on her last day at jpod, we had a small party for her and i asked (more like begged, hahaha) if she would consider writing some guest blogs in the future when she has some time. she said yes. now i just have to remind her of that every so often.
as for her making comments on her blogs, i just don't know if she has the time. but next time i see her, i'll let her know that it would mean a lot to the community (and everyone at jpod101) if she said "hello" in the comments from time to time.

This could be an opportunity to revise the audio blog format, if someone new takes up the role. I have always felt that there should be blogs at different levels of learning - especially newbie and beginner.

I agree, Miki had her time here, so now it's time to give other people a chance to show their talents.
Forgive me, but why does Yuri sound so much like Natsuko-san?
