The country I want to visit

It's Italy!!
I have 1 strong reason for that why I want to visit there.

One day, when I was watching TV, it told about famous spots, foods, trends and so on in Italy. Well...I do not remember all of that information but one of the famous spots had a great impact on me. It is called "blue cave". I don't know if many of you know this but it is so beautiful as I can't forget about it since then. When people entered into the cave and can see the blight blue color with sunshine from the small cave's entrance. Even though I saw it through TV, I was really impressed and made me think that I should go there strongly. That's quite a big reason for choosing the country I want to visit one day.

Also, if I went to Italy, it is easy to visit other European area such as France, Germany or other countries in those location because of the closeness between country and country.

In addition, the food in Italy is so yummy. Imagine the delicious pizza and pasta with thick sauce, cheese and so on. That made us hungry, eh?

Anyway, from those reasons, I want to go to Italy seriously.

Media which impacted on my life

There is a song called "oshakashama" by Radwimps which remind me what we human are actually doing compared with god like deciding which animals we should kill or gain when some diseases caused and lack of rare animals made our mind and behavior change to let them alive. When I was taking Christianity class, most of the time god decides everything.(in my image though)

However, thinking in real world, what actually we are doing? We cut many trees to make something better for our lives, kill animals if they have disease and make our lives safe, make many roads to improve our lives more convenient and so on. I just wanna say like most of Christians admire god and worship but what we are doing is actually same with god. From that, it made me think what we are today. This changed my mind from thinking ourselves to thinking other creatures more seriously.

I'm so bad at organizing things so it's hard to understand for you I guess. Anyway, I just wrote about the media which impacted on me but lots of other things are influence.

Version 2

From last week's class, I learned culture belief difference between Japan and America. In Japan, we don't usually drink green tea with sugar in it so that most of Japanese never tried and even thinking in that way. However, American want what they want like they want to have a right to choose so simply speaking, we, Japanese think about other people or social common sense and concerned about it but most of Americans think what they want or what they choose more strongly.

As I said before this post, I think culture belief difference effect in social, relationships and even character. I gave am example such as telephoning to someone who is higher status or title. I felt like many Japanese think making difference is shameful and have negative images so we tend to be same with anyone else. This makes us think we should defend our culture and teach foreigners if they made some mistakes or something like that. But compared with Japan, American think to be different from others is best way to be known by other people so they tend to express themselves more openly. From that, They have more positive images.
These are my images and what I learned and felt from class.

For me, it's difficult to summarize what I learned simply so maybe I made many of you confuse...?

Invisible and visible culture

In Japan, I think everyone know its hierarchy in society because as you know most of the Japanese show respect for seniors. We do have title so that have to call it like if the person is teacher, we have to call him like professor something and also Japanese tend to follow senior's idea as possible as we could.

Another example is that the way of telephoning to someone but I don't think many people do this, I just thought some do this unconsciously. In a situation like when telephone to the person who works with you for you part-time job, some seem to show respect even they cannot see each other such as bowing a little bit and nodding many times.

Above all are kind of invisible culture, that is the way of Japanese think;the tacit agreement. Compared with another country such as America or Canada or wherever, All teachers for example call each other their names but in Japan, they do not call each other their names.

Well...these are mostly my images so that maybe it wasn't right but surely, some people are doing this. So, Japanese invisible culture;hierarchy appear visibly such as their behavior.
