Actually, I had decided not to buy any more schedule books.

Each person feels happiness differently. I consider myself happy every day, and I say so. Other people may think that I have no hardships in my life. But you know, I have a lot of problems too. But instead of focusing on them, I just feel one joy or happiness ten times more.

I sometimes have a sixth sense. I sometimes judge people's personalities based on my sixth sense. It may seem spiritual to other people, but I still try to trust my sense.

The origins of Japanese manga actually date back 800 years. In emaki (picture scrolls) drawn during the Heian and Kamakura periods, we can see techniques that lead to today's manga. One theory is that they were inspired by British satirical comics, but after doing some research, I think that they probably originally had the same conceptual power that is depicted in manga.

My older brother is a person who thinks about his future and makes every effort to achieve it. He always keeps the goals he has set for himself. I would like to follow my brother's example and adopt his approach to learning and make more effort to improve my language skills.Click here to see an illustration of my brother. ☞https://www.pixiv.net/users/14726290/artworks

The Jaws movie I saw as a child scared me so much that it still traumatizes me and I can't swim in the ocean. I wonder how people who surf can go that far. The thought of sharks in the ocean scares me so much that I can't bring myself to swim in the ocean.

Radio may be considered outdated in this day and age. However, podcasts and e-books with audio features have been greatly influenced by radio. I think that the culture of getting information by listening with the ears was created by radio.

Some ramen shops are good and some are not so good. For a while, I was addicted to visiting ramen shops. At that time, I had many interesting experiences.

Natto is a traditional Japanese food, but its smell is said to be the worst. But in fact, it is a delicious and very nutritious food. Especially for women, we should eat it actively because of its skin beautifying effect.

I am not particularly interested in famous tourist attractions. Whether traveling domestically or internationally, I think it is enjoyable to experience the local climate and experience something out of the ordinary. The next time I travel abroad, I would like to be close to the lives of my friends in that country.

When I was in high school, I went to Okinawa on a school excursion, but I don't remember going to any of the tourist attractions. I am sure I took a plane on the way there and on the way back, but I don't remember that at all either.

In Japan, an event called Tanabata (Star Festival) is held on July 7, where people write their wishes on long, thin strips of paper called tanzaku and tie them to bamboo leaves. This is one of the most common summer customs in Japan. In some areas, Tanabata festivals are held from July to August.

The famous Japanese pear, named the 20th Century Pear, is a very tasty pear, juicy, with a good balance of acidity and sweetness. But this is the result of chance and the efforts of a boy and his father.

Here are some of the unusual flavors of soft-serve ice cream in Japan. I will introduce three slightly unusual flavors and four extremely unusual flavors.

Not long ago, we would have been talking about the future, six months or a year from now, but those plans would soon become a thing of the past.And the pace of my language progress is not at all in proportion to the speed of the passage of time.

Azuki is believed to ward off bad luck. It is also said to help expel fatigue and toxins from the body and keep the stomach healthy, making it a very healthy traditional Japanese food.

The dessert known as parfait has become like an art form, so popular nowadays as an Instagram image. And now they are available at convenience stores for a reasonable price. If you come to Japan, I urge you to try the parfait at a convenience store called Ministop!

The basis of Japanese food is one soup and three side dishes. This is the basis of the Japanese diet, which is said to provide a balanced intake of nutrients. If it is too difficult to make three side dishes, you can put a lot of vegetables in miso soup.

We take a luxury trip once a year. Since the purpose of this trip is to enjoy onsen, we only go sightseeing when we have extra time. We stay at a different ryokan every year, and each one has its own unique and interesting features.

Nails are not used in most old Japanese buildings. That is because the expansion rate of each material is different, making them vulnerable in the long run. In the past, the Japanese built shrines and temples with hundreds or even thousands of years in mind.

I have seen strange UFO-like phenomena. I am an occultist, so I believe in the existence of UFOs. However, some people make fun of my story. It is up to each person to decide whether or not to believe in UFOs, but if you are going to make fun of me, I would like you to prove that UFOs do not exist.

I like the morning best among all the hours of the day. Waking up early and being active allows me to get a lot done in a day. But every day, I feel that time passes rapidly in the evening. What is this all about?

Thanks to my phone, I can do YouTube and benefit from it. I am very grateful for that. But it is also true that my life is now being influenced by my smartphone. I think it's important to have a life away from the smartphone at times.

Japan has its own unique era name. It is so deeply linked to the Japanese people that it is inseparable from them. Sometimes, the dates on official documents are mixed with the western calendar, which I feel is complicated, but still, I would like to cherish what is uniquely Japanese.

In Japan, there is even an onigiri anniversary. In recent years, there have been onigiri with fancier ingredients such as wiener onigiri and karaage onigiri, but onigiri can be made with simpler ingredients that are still delicious.

I will talk about Japan's unique climate, 梅雨 (tsuyu). Actually, 梅雨 (tsuyu) is different from the rainy season in the strict sense of the word. During 梅雨 (tsuyu), there are many rainy days, but hydrangeas bloom beautifully and fireflies can be seen at night by the riverside.

My blood pressure is quite low, the so-called low blood pressure type. Nevertheless, when I donate blood, my blood pressure can be so low that I cannot donate blood, and when I have a physical exam, it is a typical blood pressure reading. Apparently, my body does not want to be drained of blood, but does not want to be treated as unhealthy.

A truly kind person is one who can do that naturally. And they don't ask for anything in return, nor are they aware that they are being kind to others in the first place.

Photography is a revolutionary technology because it can capture historical moments. However, once printed out, only the person in the photograph can dispose of it. This makes me wonder whether that is really a good thing. So I got rid of all my photos myself.

Money should be spent thoughtfully. Even if it is a big expense, do not hesitate if it is necessary. If you only spend money to satisfy your immediate greed because it is cheap, you will definitely end up splurging without realising it. Therefore, I would like to review the way I spend my money.

Looking back, I have realized many of my dreams. But I have done it because many people have helped me. I am grateful to those who have supported me and I will continue to pursue my dreams.

In this episode, I introduce Japanese tea culture. Japanese tea is green tea, but in fact, there are even more varieties within that green tea. I will also talk about how to enjoy tea in Japan and its benefits.

If I translate the Japanese senses into English, they may not understand me. Still, it is very hard to listen to English pronunciation.

If you want to get used to hearing Japanese, Rakugo is a great way to do so. Rakugo is a traditional Japanese storytelling art. Since rakugo storytellers are professional storytellers, they tell their tales in lively and easy-to-understand Japanese. Their stories are basically period pieces, so some of the words are a bit different from those used in everyday conversation, but it is just fine for listening.

I really don't like insects. I overreact to even the smallest insect. It's so strange to me, but I just can't get over my dislike of insects.

I still remember the moment when I was a child and could ride a bicycle for the first time. At that time, I really wanted to be able to ride a bicycle without auxiliary wheels, so I was extremely focused on my practice. I wish I could have used the same concentration I had then for other things.

Lately, I've been into hand sewing rather than sewing with a sewing machine. It takes a lot more time and effort than sewing with a sewing machine, but somehow I feel more comfortable with that time now. I find myself enjoying hand-sewing more than I ever thought possible from my former self.

I'll tell you why I started YouTube.... When I was wondering whether I should start YouTube, I declared to my colleagues at the time that I would start it in two years. Thanks to this declaration, I was able to make good on my promise.

While filming for YouTube, I happened to meet a mountain climbing enthusiast. They said they climb mountains every week. I thought this was a good opportunity, so I joined them on their climb to learn more about the local area. It was very tough, but it felt great to reach the summit. It was a small mountain compared to Everest, but it was an accomplishment for me.

In Japan, they say that a woman in a yukata looks 20% better than normal. Is there such an expression in your country? When I was young, there was a time when I looked 20% better in a yukata.

There are two types of traditional Japanese card games, easy and rather difficult, called karuta. For easy karuta, you can enjoy the game even if you are not confident in your Japanese language skills, as long as you have the hiragana and their readings in your head. However, for difficult karuta, it takes time to get used to it, even for Japanese people.

I don't like cooking. I don't want to if I can help it. But when I buy prepared foods or frozen foods, I feel defeated by them. That's why I try to make my own food. I don't like cooking, but for some reason I have a strange obsession with it.

In this episode, I would like to share with you an interesting text I found on Pinterest and an interesting text made on a TV show that was talked about a few years ago.
