Secret of Kumamoto

I researched about family names in Kumamoto because I am interested in and I want to know them. I think that there are family names that exist in only Kumamoto prefecture. I want to know the family names and origin.

The family name that exist most in Kumamoto is Tanaka "田中". Second is Nakamura “中村”. Third is Matsumoto “松本”. Tanaka is the old topography family name that came into existence in a meaning that lived in the field. Kansai and the Sea of Japan side have many this family names. Nakamura called Motomura (Hongo) Nakamura for a de-centralized village. This is kyushu of representative family names. Matsumoto is the place where deified pines grow thick. There is a lot this in West Japan with the progenies such as Kanmu Heike clan (Ise).

Next, I introduce unusual family names. 禿 "Hage", 早起 "Hayaki", 父母 "Hubo", 鳳凰 "Houou", 地下 "Chika", 続 "Tsuduki". Especially, Hayaki and Houou is rare family name. These family name exist in only Kumamoto. And, Can you know how to say "一"?? This is "Ninomae". It's so funny name.

There are rare family names exist more in Kumamoto and in the other prefecture, too. I compare it with other prefectures. The North Japan has much Sato family names; "Kanto has much Suzuki family names"; "Kansai has much Tanaka family names". Furthermore, most family names are 佐藤 "Sato" in Japan. Second is 鈴木 "Suzuki", third is 高橋 "Takahashi".

I am interested in family name more. I want to research about family name in Fukuoka.

Community Life

I am involved with various people and live now. The place where I live of now are the university, my house and the workplace. At each place, I get to know with many people and live together. The human relations are serious things. However, the people whom I am concerned with are very good people.

For example, I spend most with a friend at school. They are cool very much!! There are few friends who can be close to me without the same subject at a university, but there is the place that we can be involved with many people without a class by the school life. It is a club. I can make friends with the people who cannot get to know at the normal in the club while I spend a university life. Especially, It is good that I can associate with not only the classmate but also younger and older persons in the circle. In the circle, I can learn human relations and, top and bottom relations. All are close and live happily.

I comparatively have few neighborhood acquaintance. I can be involved with a lot of people if I want to be concerned, but am very particular. And I am involved with a lot of people in the workplace. At first, there is the friend of the workshop. I have worked for 2 years at a cake shop. There are eight employees without me. One is a part-time worker in that. She is the same age with me. I work happily together.

I can get to know with various people and I take good stimulation from them and live. If I am active positively more, the ring of the friend will spread more.

Health

I came to think in health recently. I think that I spend the partial eating habits since I was a child. Because the parents were working together, there were many opportunities to eat retortable pouches stocked up on. I like the vegetables. However, because it was troublesome to cook vegetables for me, I ate only the food of the microwave oven without eating vegetables too much. Besides, I ate a lot of cakes because I loved sweets. I thought that it was the unhealthy eating habits.


I noticed that I liked soy bean food recently. I liked fermented soybeans for a long time and ate three packs in a day. The next I noticed a taste of the tofu. Because I came to like tofu, I bought and ate some tofus from cheap to expensive. I liked to eat and pour sesame dressing to the tofu. However, I ate tofu too much and I was tired of it. Now I haven't eaten tofu.

Next, I came to like soyjoy. I ate them frequently. There are various tastes. My favorite taste is cacao nuts and raisin almond. I ate at morning and lunch time, and I ate them when I was hungry. However soyjoy is very expensive. So, I couldn't buy them. Then, I thought that I tried to cook like a soyjoy. Soyjoy made of powdered soybeans. I didn't get powdered soybeans because this wasn't sold at shops. So, I considered that I tried to cook them with soybean flour. So, I researched how to cook like a soyjoy on the Internet and I tried to cook like a soyjoy. However the taste was not good. I didn't use sugar so much for health. So, I was tired of the taste.

And now, I began to eat mix beans sold at stores. It is easy to get it. I can buy it without circumstance. Mix beans are four soybeans. Soybeans, Aodaizu, Hiyokomame, Kuromame. I like them very much. This is boiled and I can eat easily. I eat them without dressings. I can taste taste of soybeans itself. I eat them with mayonnaise once in a while. Mayonnaise match soybeans very much.

I think I will not be tired of soybeans.

MRS. DOUBT FIRE

I watched a DVD "MRS. DOUBT FIRE". At first, this movie is comedy, love and human movies. this movie includes some themes. For example, love, family, job, life. Especially, I thought this movie tell us the importance of the family.

Next, my impression about this movie are pleasant, but impressive. Father who is the chief character of this movie is a very pleasant person. He loves children than anything. His love comes from the scene of the beginning of the movie. Among the stand-ins of the cartoon film, he resisted the boss about a small bird smoking. It was resistance with his thinking about children. I thought working is important. If I were him, I couldn't quit the job such as him. I thought He was best father in the world.

He loved his children, but mother loved children, too. However, about the divorce, I thought that it was a difficult problem. I think that it is not a problem only for them to be divorced. The poorest person is the children. I felt that the children lived happily at least. It is not good to take one parent out of children for a selfish thought of a parent.

However, I think that his action is abnormal when I think from an aspect of a lifestyle. It is not good to do too much it. He acted without a thought. I was able to understand feelings of mother well. but, I like this father. It is very enviable. He is the father who is humorous, interesting and full of love.

School Festival

A school festival was held for three days. Our club was fried chicken shop this year. I sold fried chicken and a potato last year. However, for the reasons such as cost cuts, we sold fried chicken only this year. The sales of the fried chicken were good. I did work to fill the cup with fried chicken mainly. And I picked it up and ate it because I was hungry. Because the meeting time to the school was 7:00, I attended school by first train for three days. I got up at about 4:00,so I ate only fried chicken at school because I was not able to eat breakfast. By the school festival, various stands appeared. I ate the crepe for three days. It was very delicious. Because I sold fried chicken with having stood all the time, I had a pain in a foot. I spent very substantial three days. I feel like having been able to make friends with the first grader more.
We had night festival on the third day. I gathered in the athletic ground and was divided into every circle and splashed pop on each other. We were cold and splashed pop on each other last year while shaking. However, this year was more warmer than last year. Fireworks were very beautiful. Thereafter, there was launching. Because I was not able to come back on that day, I stayed at the karaoke. I was up all day last year, but slept immediately this year because the circumference of the liquor was early and got drunk immediately. I spent hard and happy three days.
