My family

Now, I will tell you about my family's episode.

When I was a child, I had gone to   the Matsue Lutheran church with my family on Sundays.  After  the worship, we had gone to a park of neighboring town, and then we had eaten lunch.  A neighboring town is Yonago City, Tottori prefecture.  My  relative live there, and we sometimes met them.  Yonago City has  the Kaike hot springs.  We went to there.  I felt comfotable day.

One winter, many Christians of the West Japan Lutheran church got together on the Daisen.  Daisen is mountain, so there was so cold.  We lodged together.  We did worship and sang many hymn. 

Also, we participated outdoor worship and  outdoor lunch at near  the Matsue castle.  By the way, another name of the Matsue castle is the Chidori castle.  "Chidori" is a plover in English.     

I have an older brother.  He is twenty one years old.  He is a working member of society, and lives in Hiroshima City.  And I live in Hamada City, Shimane prefecure. We seldom meet my family, so I want to go to somewhere with my family. 

I was born in Hyogo prefecture(near Osaka) and I brought up in Matsue City, Shimane prefecture.  So I have friends in Hyogo. Shimame and Hyogo are litte far.  One summer, I felt happy when my friends came to my house!  We went swimming in the sea. 

Another winter, I went to Sanbe Mountain with my family.  We par Iticipated a certain of event.  It was treasure hunting in the snow.  The treasure is  some freezing oranges.  My hands were numb with cold!!  But I enjoyed hunting.  And the freezing oranges were so delicious.  I want to do it again. 

This winter vacation, I am at a loss whether to go back home.  I want to do a part time job.  The work might be busy.  I already have working a part time job at Kendai, but I want to do it outside the university.  I can learn about society for working.

Every the first of the year, we go to church.  It's "Gantan Reihai".  We pray for God. And we express thanksgiving.  After that we eat "Zenzai(Oshiruko)".   "Zenzai" is a red bean soup with pieces of rice cake.  It tastes so sweet.  I like it very much!

I seldom watch movie with family.  I remember that I watched it with my father.  The movie was The Chronicles of Narnia.  My uncle gave us the ticket.  I have watched only the first chapter.  I want to watch a sequel to this story.  Have you watched  these all story?

 I had watched many DVDs with my brother.  He often watched foreign  action movies.  I watched the Minority Report, Biohazard, Deep Blue, Taxi, The Independence Day, The Clover Field, The Wild Speed, District 9 and so on.  So I like foreign movie under the influenced of it.  A few weeks ago, I watched the Social Network.  It was dramatic.

I don't have strange or interesting family rules.  But I had cook a Japanese omelet since I was a schoolchild.  So, the skill prove to be very useful in getting a dorm life.  Another dish is just so-so.  I want to be good at cooking.

  1. Hello Haruka! I don't get to see my family much either because they all live in so many different places. It is always fun to get to see them! Treasure hunting in the snow sounds so fun! It almost never snows where I live so I don't get to see it very often.When it does snow it is only a little but It's so pretty! I would love to visit a mountain one day and get to see thick snow. Zenzai sounds delicious! I really like holiday foods that you don't get to eat very often. I also want to become good at cooking! It's really fun but right now I can't make very many dishes. I hope you enjoy your holiday!

    1. Hi, Kaitlin!
      Yes, it is always fun to get to see my family.
      Yeah, I want you to see thick snow. It's so cold, but it likes white carpet. I like it.
      Thank you!

  2. Hey there Haruka! I think it's awesome that you go to the mountain and worship. Sounds beautiful. Treasure hunting sounds neat too. I've never done that before, but I hope to some day! Zensai sounds delicious. I hope I get to try it someday!
