September 24, 2024 - Fall is here!

 I researched what to eat on the Autumn Equinox. On the day of the autumnal equinox, there is a custom of eating ohagi. Ohagi has been eaten for a long time as an ceremonial food on the day of the autumnal equinox, which is the midday of the equinox.　The reason why people eat ohagi is because the red color of the red beans is thought to have a talismanic effect, so they can be offered to the ancestors, and because the red beans used to make the ohagi filling are in season. Since it is autumn, it is also popular as an offering. 

My recommended spot for autumn leaves is Yoyogi Park.　There's nothing better than sitting on a bench in a large park in Tokyo, looking at the autumn leaves, and eating meat buns you bought at a convenience store.　If you are interested, check out this site!

September 17, 2024 - Back to School!!

I worked part-time during summer vacation. I was planning to study hard and go out a lot, but I had to work part-time, so I feel like I wasted the summer of my second year at university.　However, my birthday happened during the summer vacation, and my family and friends came to celebrate.　I really like birthdays because I get to receive gifts that I wouldn't normally buy. 

I'm starting job hunting next year, so I have some regrets about not having to work part-time during the summer of my second year of university and having fun like a university student. In order not to repeat the same regrets, I would like to work part-time, study, and play a lot during spring break this year.
