Last Month of 2014

December has began!!

December is called Shiwasu in Japanese.
Why? Because this month is very busy for the Buddhist priest to prepare for Tosinose and new year,
so they run through the corridor.

As the Buddhist priest, I'm busy too.
I have to do my homework, projects and part time job.
They make me not get enough sleep, so I'm always sleepy.

And I want to earn more money for my favorite things and travel money.
So I'm looking for short part time job.
However, I already have part time job, it is difficult to balance....


December is busy and challenging month for everybody.
Instead of this, a lot of events are waiting.
I'll enjoy all of them.
In addition to this, I can't go back to my hometown in New Year's day,
so I'll work hard and earn moneyto forget this sadness....

I want to know about them a lot, I'll try to talk to them a lot!

Also, I'm wondering about go abroad to study English and what I become...
So, I'll determine my dream by year-end.

My Lovely Pet

I love animals, especially small animals are sooo cute!
I keep hamsters since I was a kindergarten child. I have had maybe 7 or 8 hamsters so far.

On entering Kyoto Gaidai, I started living by myself in Kyoto.

In the biginning, I felt tired and sad because I couldn't touch, play, feel or see  any animals even nature! I grew in the very countryside, so I couldn't stand this situation. I was always living with some wild animals and my pets, I felt much stress because of this.

When I went back to my hometown in GW, I felt much value and blessing from my hometown. Then I thought, " If I went back to Kyoto without any pets, I would feel more stress than now..." I decided to have and keep a hamster in my Kyoto's room though my apartment building prohibits everybody from keeping any pets.

Before I went back to Kyoto, I went to homecenter with my parents to choice a hamster which I keep. There were two hamsters, but we had t o choice only one. After we were bothered, we choose a female Djungarian Hamster.

 

 Then she was little fat and her touch was very tender, so I named her Puyo. Puyo is originally come from Japanese memetic word (gitaigo), PuyoPuyo. This memetic word is used when we want to  express something's soft or tender touch.

 

Now, she became bigger than first. As time passed, she got used to touch by me. I touch her at least three times on a day. This is my daily routine. I sometimes feed piece of fresh vesitables which like cabbage or carrot.  When she gets them from my hands, I feel happy and relaxing. She supports me a lot, and she is my oasis in Kyoto life :)

 

 

　

This is her hip. Japanese hamster lovers call this Ham-Ketsu. Ketu is Japanese slang word of hip.

Her Ham-Ketsu is sooooooooooooo cute, isn't she? ;)

 

THERMAE ROMAE Ⅱ

  

May 5th, I watched the movie, "THERMAE ROMAE Ⅱ".

This movie is story about Lucius's strange and funny experiences.
Lusius  usually go beyond space-time, from acient Roma to modern Japan.
He calls Japanese people "Hiratai-kao zoku", because of the Japanese people's faces are flatter than  the Roman's.
Always inspired by Japanese bath's designs and innovations, he creats own spa, Roma thermae.

Lusius is a Raman architect specialize in bathes.
In the movie, Lusius is acted by Hiroshi Abe, Japanese actor.
His face is a strong-featured, so he was highly praised by a lot of audiences who are from all over the world.
*Japanese meaning of "strong-feature" is "koi kao" , "sause-gao".
Also the actors who play Romans are strong-feaured face.
Masachika Ichimurra, Kazuki Kitamura and Kai ShiShido act the Roman.
All of them are my favorite Japanese actors.

I have the oiginal comics.
The movie's story and ending are little differnt from the original's.
However, I think that the movie's story is interesing as same as the original one.
The movie's story has unique interest.

If you are interested in THERMAE ROMAE, you should watch the movie.
In addition, if you have free time, I want you to read the original comics.
