Restaurant in Hirosaki


Hay, do you like to eat some nice food?
If you want to do so, just ask me!

I always think where I can get good taste food here in Hirosaki and I'm sure that there is here low price or nice food.
In last week, I asked a professor of product design whether there are the restaurant in which we my friends and I can be satisfied in visual or sight.

And we could finally go to the restaurant "Ginsuisyokudou" (in Japanese:銀水食堂)

The restaurant is actually a old japanese kitchen.
So if you look for old dear Japan, you must be pleased there.

This photo was taken in last week and this Tonkatsu-Teishoku costs 700 yen.
Besides the rice was soooooo big bowl.... I could'n eat it up...


The location is Kaji-machi near the Kakumikoji (street name) which is in front of Nakasan.


In internet you can NOT find this kitchen ;)


See you later!

Japanese Traditional Play

These days, I am interested in "origami."
It is one of the Japanese traditional play.

We usually fold one paper to form many kind of things.
For example, we make animals, flowers, fish, and so on.
Sometimes we use several papers to make big productions such as dinosaurs.
But some people make such kind of things with only one paper!

I also tried to make big work using only one paper, but... I gave up when I make half.
That was really complex!
I'd like to try again during winter vacation.
But I can make a squirrel in the heart in about 7 minutes.
It looks so cute, so I like making it.



By the way, the skill of "origami"is used to make a satellite.
I think that is honor to Japanese people.
Sadly, I can't write a detail (because I don't have enough vocabulary),so if you want more information, please search.
You may find the news with the word "miura-ori."

I found it interesting because I can make various things from one paper.
That is amazing, isn't it?
Now I would like to try to make many things and enjoy the play which people in the past day enjoyed.

Cats & Dogs

Good evening, this is Misaki.

Which do you like, cats or dogs?
We sometimes hear this question.

Actually, I don't like dogs so much. When I was six years old, my neighbor's dog bitten me. I cried and ran away.
Now I understand not every dogs want to bite me, but I can't touch them. ;-(

I like cats. I used to draw many cats' illustrations with my brother when I was small.
My grandmother made a cat puppet and two rabbits puppet for us. Those were so cute! xD
I guess I like rabbits the most. Or maybe I just like my family members.

Please be careful when the typhoon is coming.
It'll be raining cats and dogs, I mean, heavy rain!

LED ZEPPELIN

Interviewed my friend who loves Led Zeppelin

Led Zeppelin is a famous English rock band (1968-1980).
members

  Jimmy Page    guitarist
  Robert Plant   singer
  John Paul Jones   Bassist/keyboardist
  John Bonham    drummer

According to my friend, they can perform every genre(relaxing-madly exciting). And he likes to play guitar, he talked about Jimmy Page with enthusiasm.
It is said that Jimmy Page is one of the biggest three guitarist in the world. His guitar techniques isn't as good as other famous guitarists, but he is really cool, really really cool. Jimmy Page performs with his guitar held very low position. and he performs with his mouth like kissing. And cool. He uses double-necked 12-string guitar(gibson EDS-1275) in order to make depth sound. He also established refrain-based music. He is genius at song-making. He works as though he's an producer of the song, and group.

Then let me tell you my friend's favorites.

You may know "immigrant song" and "whole lotta love". These are their representative hard rock song , used in CM many times.
If you like beautiful, quiet song, "Thank you"will be your taste.

And his the best, "stairway to heaven". This is famous all over the world. It's a song mixed relaxing and hard rock. Karajan (master of classic) comments about this song, "No more arrangement needed if I perform it accompanied by an orchestra."

My friend looked as if he couldn't help stopping to give his favorite songs (more than 20 songs he gave)

What a wonderful !   You must listen !

Rendai

I'm going to tell you my personality roughly.

I want to go to bed untill day changes, whatever happens.
I really hate to stay up late.
And I can get up early.
But, I feel sleepy, however I sleep long time, ha ha.

I don't like to stay home all day.
I always go outside of my home in weekend.
Even if I have only little time.

I write a dialy everyday.
I write the today's occurrence, what I felt today, my discontent,
happiness, questions in my mind, and many feelings.
As I do that, I can feel happy, relaxed.
Because, whatever I do, I write positive sentense at last sentense absolutely.
And I can think I will do well!

I really want to enjoy my campus life.
I want to challenge many things!
