Holly Feeling...?!

... Well,
I hadn't known "Saint Nicholas Day". ^^;





Of course I know Christmas day (Japanese people love Christmas day!), but St. Nicholas day isn't well-known in Japan. It's on 6th December, and a child who has been good during a year can get sweets.
Oh, what a lovely event! I'm sure I can get lots of sweets this year! ...me idiot ;P
And I must give Marco a tons of sweets. hehe.


Here I found a lovely story.
A Japanese woman, who has lived in Germany several years(maybe), forgot to prepare a event of St.Nicholas day abstractedly. But a German couple, who lives in the same apartment house, with her, kindly prepared a cute rack for sweets and hang it at her apartment's door. They are so kind and have cared about not only their own 4 grandchildren but also a son of the JP woman every year. The JP woman and her son are very happy with it and went to their room to say thanks. The son sang a song "Silent Night" for them to express his thanks. The madam and the sir (of course) know the song and sang it with the boy.
Wow, heart-warming ...! :D


When it comes to Christmas, I'd like to have an "adventkranz". Where can I get it in Tokio?!

I think it's beautiful and cute, and more it makes me feel something holly. It's also lovely we are supposed to light a candle every Sundays. :)
So..., How do you treat these candlelights? Do you keep all the candlelights on in December? or blow off them during you're out your home...?



Change the subject, I happened to visit this blog and this has a lot of words of "Soto" and "Russ".
The blog post is here.
...Mnnn, I tried to read this with translation tools but I'm not clear about this. Maybe the author compared Soto with Marco...? Maybe so.
Anyway, I'm glad to find a SGE fan mentioned about Russ. :)




The 16 Spieltag against Schalke gets started in a few hours. I'm going to sit in front of TV to watch SGE's game.
Go SGE!!!
