Oh, The Drama!



My new addiction is T.V. Dramas. Whether Japanese or Korean (K Dramas), I'm game. Romance, Mystery, Suspense and Thrillers--I like them all! Growing up in America, I watched what we call Soap Operas with my Aunt. She was a serious addict! I like dramas because I can learn a new language while being entertained. Gotta go! my favorite drama is on!

Holiday Cheer



I love taking little walks outside of my apartment complex. Every so often I would see little holiday decorations on trees. Downtown Kanonji is lit up at night with this calming display of lights. Last year I saw these beautiful light up wings posted near the large Kanonji travel map. This year I don't see the light up wings posted yet but there is still a lovely tree lit up with a star on top of it. The tree looks just as majestic in the morning too. It is covered in red leaves due to the season change!

Also, the stores I go to are selling gorgeous (and inexpensive) holiday decorations. I think I wanted to buy almost every seasonal knickknack I saw at Daiso! Even my workplace looks like something out of a holiday movie with all the thoughtful Christmas images! I'm really enjoying all the holiday cheer in Shikoku Island! I feel the holiday spirit loud and clear and it's awe-inspiring!

It is very Moony this Evening.

In English there are certain words that, logically, should exist, but just don't. However, if you understand the basics, it is pretty funny to use these non-words.

When you describe the weather of a day when the Sun is shining and there are few clouds, you say, "It's sunny," or something similar. When you describe the weather of a night when the Moon is shining and there are few clouds, you don't say, "It's moony". Despite not being a real word, I completely understand it's meaning.

This kind of word-play makes me laugh, so, many thanks to one of my Junior High students for giving me this one.
