   About two weeks in Dr. Mani’s lab, I was able to conduct a series of experiments starting with the creation of molecules and measuring the emission and absorption.  I used NMR (Nuclear Magnetic Resonance) to confirm whether what we wanted to make was really made or not.  With the students in his lab, I did TLC (Thin Layer Chromatography) and Column Chromatography (Column Chromatography).  I also used a new laboratory instrument to remove the material in the flask.  The instrument was much more efficient than a micro spatula.
   On the last weekend, Mr. Sakurai took me to various places.  On weekends, there is a small market in each district.  So, I went to Peach Market.  Unlike the name, there was not much peach.  After that, I met the family and went to see the boat competition.  I went to a Thai restaurant for the last dinner.  The way of serving rice was very interesting and very delicious.
