New Year's Party

    There was a New Year's party in a circle last Friday. The party was held at a Yakiniku restaurant called Guriguriya. Almost everyone in the club gathered and talked after a long time and it was very fun. I was very happy to eat a lot.

New Year

     When the New Year comes, my family goes to the shrine for a first visit and eat osechi and zoniThere are kurikinton, black beans, datemaki and tadukuri in osechi in my home. It also contains quail eggs and cucumber, ham and cheese skewers. 
     There was also a gathering of relatives, where I received new year’s gifts from my grandparents and uncles.

Winter Vacation Trip

     During winter vacation, I went on a trip with my family for three days and two nights.
     On the first day, we went to the Hoshi hot spring in Gunma. This hot spring is one of the inns that modeled the movie THERMAE ROMAE. Not only the hot spring, but also the food was delicious and very well.
     On the second day, I visited Asakusa in Tokyo.
     On the third day, we went to Tokyo DisneySea. It's been a long time since I came to Disney, but the first thing that surprised me was that FastPass is now available on smartphone apps. Thanks to that, I was able to ride more than 10 attractions in all.

Christmas Party

     Yesterday, we had a Christmas party with a member of a club called OZ. At that party, there were people dressed up and exchanged for presentations, it was interesting. By the way, I got a memory foam pillow for exchange presents. The most interesting project was the result of a questionnaire on how OZ members think about other people.

THERUMAE ROMAE

     My favorite movie is THERUMAE ROMAE. The movie was made by Hideki Takeuchi in 2012 and got the 67th Mainichi Film Contest TSUTAYA Movie Fan award Japanese Film Division. Hiroshi Abe was starred in it.
      In ancient Rome and modern Japan, Lusius Modeatus, an ancient Roman bath designer, suddenly slips back from a public bath in Rome to a Japanese public bath in the 21st century. Since then, he had made many round trips between ancient Rome and modern Japanese baths, witnessing numerous facilities and ingenuity, and incorporating it into ancient Rome. On the other hand, Yamakoshi Mami, a young Japanese woman aspiring to be a manga artist, is intrigued by the fact that he comes in contact with Lucius every time he appears in modern Japan. Lucius, who gained fame by building a new bath in Rome, modeled on what he saw in modern Japan, will eventually become the bath designer of the emperor Hadrian and get the knowledge of his neighbor Antoninus. Eventually, Hadrian ordered Lucius to build a new bath for Caionius, who he considers to be his successor. Lucius then slips back to Japan again and this time appears in an old hot spring inn that is the true home. There was the truth that gave up the way to the manga artist and was determined to succeed the parents' hot spring inn. The truth was that we had to study Latin and ancient Roman history in preparation for the day we reunited with Lucius and to have a perfect conversation with him. And the truth is also time slipped to ancient Rome by getting involved in Lucius returning.  In the end Based on the experience with Lucius, it came to an end when Lucius came back in time before the truth, when he began to challenge the manga artist again.
     I like the scene where the protagonist of this movie slips in time and is surprised by modern Japanese culture every time, and the scene that has become a hot topic of the Roman people by incorporating that culture into Rome.

Pegasoferae

    Today, I was surprised that the bat and horse are related species. This information was broadcast on a program called "Testuwan Dash". Pegasoferae is a group of mammals that collectively refer to horses, spiders, cats and pangolins. Pangolin is an animal similar to armadillo. However, when I searched at Pegasoferae, it was concluded that Pegasoferae was not a natural classification in subsequent molecular phylogenetic studies.

Helping Harvest

     Today, I went to Akitsucho to help  mandarin oranges harvest with my club senior. We helped harvest from around 8am to 11am. We received non standard oranges from a farmer after help is over. The mandarin orange we received this time was very delicious variety called Ishiji.
