Special Food Of My Home Town

 Sushi or Sashimi are known by many people,and these are popular in the entire place of Japan.In addition to it, We have own special food each prefecture in Japan.For example,Kyoto is famous for yuba tofu(put tofu in hot water),Hokkaido is famous for seafood,Okinawa is famous for goyachanpule(goya is kind of vegetable,and it is so bitter).I`m going to explain about special food of my home town.

 My home town is Nagoya.There is located on central Japan. There are many kind of special food.We especially use miso.Special food which base on miso is misonikomi udon. It is kind of noodle,but noodle is very thick and base on miso.And misokatu is also special food which base on miso. It is adding special miso sauce on pork,and eating with rice.Except for miso,we have some special food.Hitumabushi is putting eel on rice,and adding special sauce.Tebasaki is similar to chicken wings,and also add a special sauce on chiken wings.

 We still have some special food.These are very tasty for me,If you have a chance to go to Japan,try to eat not only famous food but also local food.

Global Warming

 I think one of the worst problems affecting the environment is global warming.Global warming is that temperature of Earth start to increase.We sometimes feel it.It happens around the world.For example,in Carlgary it is not too cold this year compete to last year.In Japan,recently it is very hot in summer.A few years ago,average of temperature is about 30 degree in summer.But nowdays there are some place that it is over 40 degree.We noticed something happens.
 What do global warming cause??First,ice in Arctic is malting up,and then sea levels to rise.Finally,some island will sink under the water.Other effects of warming can change an ecosystem.This change ralate to species extinctions.
 Some researcher try to slove these problems.Some researcher say CO2 cause global warming,so they suggest that people should decreese CO2.Such as,we try to use public transit instead of useing a car.But other say that it dosen't matter.
 We still not find the solution.But we will find it soon,and we will need a effort each person. at that time.Not only we leave it to resercher,but also we have to think abou it.

My Favorite Movie

"Inception" is my favorite movie.I`m going to explain how much awesome it is.In Japan,I worked at movie theater.At the time,I tried to watch a movie as possible as I can.Because I could watch a movie for nothing.Inception is the best movie during that time.

 The director of this movie is Christopher Nolan who is very famous director.He have made some famous movie,such as Batman Begins or The Dark Knight.The main actor,which appear in this movie,is Leonardo DiCaprio.He played as Cobb.Also,it appears Japanese actor who is Ken

Watanabe.That is good point for me in this movie.

 Until now,I explained about detail in this movie.Next,I`m telling about story.This movie is very complicate.The main subject is to put some ideas in someone`s mind.Cobb makes a special group to go into someone`s dream.And they try to put an idea into someone`mind.And Christopher Nolan give a massage to his movie.It is interesting to read the massage.Also,this movie has the massage.We can see impact scene at the last.

 I can`t tell you well how great it is,but I really recommend that you watch Inception.

The Battle of the Sexes

 I always have difficulty understanding the women.I`m talking about what make me bother on woman`s behavior.

 First,women talk about something indirectly.For example,if she wants to go to someplace,she just say it is good.But I can`t understand that ,in fact,she really wants to go there.Just I think it is nice for her.And woman always say cute for anything,even ugly things.I suppose it is especially Japanese woman.If her friend say it is cute,she absolutely say I think so.(if she don`t think so).It is so strange for me.They say cute for anything,so I don`t know what is really cute.That`s why I think cute has a lot of mean among Japanese woman.Sometimes it means cool or nice or weird or really cute...but I always confuse about it,so if woman ask me whether something is cute,I just say it is so cute.That`s a solution.Second,If woman quarrel with someone,she continue to be angry even after finishing quarrel.And she complain about it to other people.In man case,after finishing quarrel,we get along with his opponent.I like man`s behavior.I think it is more smart than woman`s.

 There are some woman`s behavior that I can`t understand.But I don`t hate.That`s because man and woman is different from each other.If woman`s behavior make me bother,I try to understand it.

Scary Story

 I like horror story.Sometimes I went to psychic spot(like haunted house)But I don`t have any ability to see a ghost.I`ve never seen the ghost and I`ve never experienced psychic

phenomenon.So,I`m gonna telling about my friends` experience.

 One day,my friend was reading a book at the living room as usual.A few minute later,he was getting sleepy,so he went to his bed room.And He started sleeping.But he noticed that he was in living room.He thought he was his bedroom.At first,he thought it was just his mistake.And he went back his bedroom and he started sleeping again.But he noticed that he was in living room again.He was sure that it was strange,and felt fear.But he couldn`t do anything,so he decided to go back his bedroom again.And he started sleeping again.At this time,he noticed that someone touched his legs and his wrists.He couldn`t move at all.Finally he was released from sticking,and he looked at his body.There are some marks on his legs and wrists.

 This is the best scary story I`ve ever heard.Can you tell me your story if you have anything!!

My Extreme Interest

 I have never tried extreme sports.I really want to try them if I have a chance.But I have an extreme interest that match them.It is a motorcycle.

 There are some way of enjoy.First one is traveling.I have traveled to someplace by the motorcycle since I bought it.I have rode it for 10hours without resting.

 Second one is speeding.I have rode it at a speed of 180 kilometers an hour.At the time,I could not move my body at all,and my sight was getting narrow. I must focus on riding.

 Third one is riding a mountain pass.It is to ride the motorcycle on winding road to the highest point on a mountain.It is the most exciting for me.There is a mountain near my house,so I sometimes went there to improve my riding skill.

 I suppose that riding motorcycle is very dangerous.Sometimes,a rider die in car accident.I had some accident.My rider friends also had an accident.Still,I can not stop riding.That is because it is very exciting and interesting for me.Now,I really miss my motorcycle.When I go back my country,I will ride it at first.

Valentine`s Day

February 14 is Valentine`s Day.In Japan,we have a different culture.It is the day on which young     women should give small gifts,commonly chocolate,not only to their boy friends,but also to their colleagues or bosses as showing their love or gratitude.We call it 「Giri Choco(Obligation Chocolate)」because it is given from the sense of obligation,not from love.And we have another special day that we call it White Day(March 14).If a man get a chocolate from a woman,he has to return a gift to her.This is Japanese Valentine`s Day.But, we have a new style of it recently.It is that young women eat their chocolate that they make with their friends.It is kind of strange for me.
Anyway,I was surprised I heard that a man give some gift and make a plan(like dinner) in Canada.We have same special  days in the world.But Japanese culture are different from another county.I prefer Japanese Valentine`s Day to Canada`s.

It`s Me Fraud

I`d like to discuss about 「It`s me fraud」.Do you know what it is??I`m talking about the case of my grandmother to explain it.
One day,my grandmother got a phone call from someone.But he did`t say his name.Just he said 「It`s me...It`s me」.My grandmother thought he was her son.And,she asked him 「Are you Ken??」and someone answered「yes,I`m Ken」.Actually,he was not his son.He was a co-man.And then,he was explaining about his trouble.「I had a car accident.so I need some money.Can you send me some money??」and he gave his bank account number to my grandmother.She was so upset,and she went to a bank without talking about it with anyone.But recently this fraud often happened,so police or banker watched old person to prevent from deceiving.At the time,the banker asked her「Is he your real son??,you should check it again」.She trusted it,but she tried to call his son.Finally,she noticed it was the fraud.
Stated quite simply,this is a fraud in which a co-man calls an elderly person,pretends to be a son or grandson,and ask for money.Now the fraud like this is going to disappear because of being well-known.However,new type of fraud is appearing.So,we always must be careful.

Blood types

Do you know test for personality compatibility based on blood types?? In Japan,we think each blood type has specific personality

.I explain about each personality of blood type.First,people who have type A　are earnest ,neat and clean,diligent,peaceful,proud,stubborn,conservative,considerate etc.About  40 percent of people in Japan have this blood.That`s why it is comfortable for them to live in Japan.Second,people who have type B are arbitrary ,changeable,friendly, optimistic ,flexible, egotistic etc. Third,people who have type O are realistic,open-minded, romantic, ambitious, exclusive etc. Fourth,people who have type AB are unique,narcissism, selfishness,cool,rational, instinctive and  have a strong mind,complicated personality   

a lot of hobby etc.And each blood type has compatibility with another blood type. 

Next,I searched for the blood types rate on each country.Japanese know about there are a lot of blood type A in Japan.That`s why I thought there are a lot of people who have blood type A in the world.　But it is wrong.Can you look at below the table.This is the table that represent blood types rate on each country.The blood types rate is different depend on the country.

Someone believe this test,but other people don`t believe it. 

I believe it.Do you believe it??Are you interested it??

	typeA	typeB	typeO	typeAB
Japan	38％	22％	31％	9％
France	46%	9%	42%	9%
India	21%	41%	29%	3%
Nigeria	21%	29%	44%	6%
Argentine	5%	92%	0%	0%
USA	41%	10%	45%	4%
Australia	39%	0%	61%	0%

ADVERTISEMENT

My favorite advertisement is the ad of SoftBank(Japanese cellphone company).This ad won some prizes in Japan.A lot of people in Japan like it.Why do they like it??Why do I like it??

At first,I describe this ad.There are 4person in their family.But they are specific family.Because their father is the dog that can speak Japanese and their brother is the black man who also speak Japanese fluently..What happen to this family?This ad is a series of commercial.We clear the mystery every time the new one is made.I think this is the point that a lot of people are interested in this ad and easy to remember.And the dog(their father) become famous character in Japan.That`s because he is so cute and funny.

I`m not sure if it can convince people to buy this product.But I think this ad is the highest quality and funny and the easiest to remember.
