Shining---Shang-Shang

On my way from office, looking up at the sky, it was very beautiful. So unintentionally I took a picture. There is a round and big moon. The moon shined on me. In Japanese, “shining” changes in other words (Onomatopoeia) “Shang- Shang”. Then, star is Shang=Shang. Moon is Shang-Shang.

In Japan, Rainy season is over August 1.  Authentic summer began with August.

In Japanese, being over rainy season is called “ Tsuyu”. It is written ”梅雨” which means plum and rain in kanji.

There are several theories about the origin of the term “Tsuyu(rainy season)”, prevailing theory is that the plums ripen well during that period.

Until last summer, Fireworks(called “hanabi”) and festivals(called “matsuri”), which are summer traditions, were held here and there in Japan. But in this year because of COVID-19, these has been canceled.

I love fireworks and festivals and I look forward to these every year. So I’m sad to hear these has canceled, and I hope these will be held next year!!

Thank you

After the rain (poetry)

The sky after the rain It’s still cloudy now  Moist air and wet ground Reflect light multiple times

In the cloudy fog The light reflected in multiple layers Beyond the illuminated I wish you were Thinking so I will have a moment after the rain With fun

The sky after the rain I think it’s full of hope A moment when the sun shines through the clouds This is the best moment  Happy time

“Oshibana”(pressed flower)---Japanese culture

Today, I introduced “Oshibana” which is one of the ways of enjoying flowers in Japan. 

Making “Oshibana” is that:

①picking petals---for example pansy

②washing softy with only water, being careful to not  tear the petals.

③naturally dry petals over half a day

④sandwich the petals with paper

⑤sandwich the paper which sandwiches the petals with newspaper

⑥some thick books put on the paper (the books are weight)

⑦after some days, open the sandwiched paper, completion of “Oshibana”

This is simple and easy, so let’s try !!!

Now on Practice of Typing

I would work in new workplace from May, but because of coronavirus, I stay home now and trained new worker programs at home.

So, now I try to one of the programs typing English sentence fast. But for now it is difficult for me. &-(

However, it is important to do “try and error”, so that I think I try to type English sentence fast tomorrow, to!!

If you have a tip for me, can you give me a advice??:)

After nailing my foot, I feel my choice is very nice！！ Now I’m very happy ♥♥
