Japanese Money

There is a lot of kinds of money. Coins are, 1yen and 5yen and 10yen.And the back of the 10yen, Byoudouin Hououdou is painted it. And 50yen and 100yen and 500yen. Paper moneys are 1,000yen,and Noguchi Hideyo is painted it. He is famous for make a cure. And 5,000yen, Higuchi Ichiyou is painted it. She was a poet and writer in Meiji era. And 10,000yen, Hukuzawa Yukichi is painted it. He is well-known as a writer of Gakumon no susume. There is 2,000 yen but these days we cannot see it much. It was issued in order to celebrated the anniversary the 2000 year.

Anyway, let’s go to the shopping mall together! If you have 100yen, you can buy potato chips or choco ball or something. If you have 500yen, maybe you can buy any snacks you like or buy some stationeries. And if you have 1,000yen, you can buy a comic book or magazine or music CD. If you have 5,000yen, you can buy some clothes or eat out somewhere. If you have 10,000yen, you can go a little trip.

Next, I explain the value of Japanese money all over the world. Generally, in USA 1dollar is 100 yen. In EU, 1euro is 160yen. In England, 1 pound is 200 yen. In China, 1yuan is 150 yen.

Day of the Dead

I think you may be scared of this day. This is the day when we pray for dead people. Like Japanese “Obon”.

In the old days, Catholic people thought that after people died, they will go to heaven or hell or purgatory. Purgatory is a middle world between heaven and hell. If you committed a little crime, you should go Purgatory. One day, they heard that if living people prayed, people in Purgatory will be able to go to heaven.

So, they pray and welcome dead people with a lot of food and flowers. This is the beginning of Day of the Dead.

John Hancock (Will Smith) is a drunkard with superhuman powers, including supersonic flight, invulnerability, immortality, and super-strength. Although he uses his powers to rescue people and stop criminals, his activities inadvertently cause millions of dollars in property damage due to his constant intoxication and cynical attitude. As a result, he is routinely jeered by the public and is considered a nuisance by the LAPD. Hancock frequently ignores court subpoenas and lawsuits from the city of Los Angeles to address the property damage he has caused.
After I watched, I became a Will’s fan. I want to watch all movies he appeared. If you want to know his appeals, you should watch it!
