new year

It has been a super while again since I had written. I did not expet that would be this late. But it seems I am in time for writting new year, first blog.

Maybe, at first I have to say is I had to work from Dec 31st through Jun 1. A new year day is very big deal in Japan. It is the most important day of Japanese, much more than christmas day and all. Peopl are taking it easy and go to a shrine to pray to God, even if they are practically, completely indifferent to God. It is the rutine for Japanese and they like it. Besides, children can get some money from adults for some reason. Long time ago, when Japanese were poor; back then there was no reason for children to get enough moeny to do what they want. For the pity, adults started giving moeny to then on the day of the most important and glorious day, a new year day. So that those childresn could have some fun. But come to think about it, they, current children do not have much reason to have lots of moeny on Jun 1st; because most of them are nolonger poor. And another problem is the moeny children are getting is quite a lot. You cannot imagine how much moeny they make a day. If a child have many relatives, I bet they will bet get more than 1,000 bucks. One time, I had a chance to drive around to see around my relatives with my mother long time ago. Relatives kept giving moeny as I stopped by. I got close to 1,000. I sort of thought I never wanted to be an adult some day. How much moeny do I have to fund for kids?

However, I hardly remember what I used them for. I really can not pull it out of my memory. I suppose I did not use those moeny for good thing, like saving. Because I do not have now, obviously.

A new year day is a day which can be bad and good. It is good for Kids and bad for grown-ups wallet.

I am sort of glad that I had to work this year and not supposed to hand moeny around.
