New Moon Story – My Life Recently

I started living my life following the phases of the moon. In the past, Japanese people used a traditional calendar that was closely connected with nature. I love that idea, and I began to feel that I would like to trace the lifestyle of our ancestors.

Recently, I found a beautiful schedule book that shows the phases of the moon. Actually, I had decided not to buy any more schedule books. However, when I found this one, it felt like destiny.

I still don't know how my life will change because I have only been using it for about a month. But I believe that my body and mind will become more comfortable by living this way.

I sometimes have a sixth sense. I sometimes judge people's personalities based on my sixth sense. It may seem spiritual to other people, but I still try to trust my sense.

The origins of Japanese manga actually date back 800 years. In emaki (picture scrolls) drawn during the Heian and Kamakura periods, we can see techniques that lead to today's manga. One theory is that they were inspired by British satirical comics, but after doing some research, I think that they probably originally had the same conceptual power that is depicted in manga.

My older brother is a person who thinks about his future and makes every effort to achieve it. He always keeps the goals he has set for himself. I would like to follow my brother's example and adopt his approach to learning and make more effort to improve my language skills.

The Jaws movie I saw as a child scared me so much that it still traumatizes me and I can't swim in the ocean. I wonder how people who surf can go that far. The thought of sharks in the ocean scares me so much that I can't bring myself to swim in the ocean.

Radio may be considered outdated in this day and age. However, podcasts and e-books with audio features have been greatly influenced by radio. I think that the culture of getting information by listening with the ears was created by radio.

Some ramen shops are good and some are not so good. For a while, I was addicted to visiting ramen shops. At that time, I had many interesting experiences.
