What's my view about religion?

      I do not believe in any religion. However, there are some unique religions which you might feel powerful pull to. I will show you two of them.

1. Jediism

Jediism is a new religious movement based on the philosophical and spiritual ideas of the Jedi as depicted in Star Wars media. It has no founder or central structure.

2. Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster

The Flying Spaghetti Monster (FSM) is the deity of the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster or Pastafarianism, a satirical movement celebrating lighthearted irreligion and opposing the teaching of intelligent design and creationism in public schools.

3. Cult of Mac

Cult of Mac is a term used for devotees of products made by Apple Computer. This has been compared to a religion. The book, The Cult of Mac, described how Mac users show their devotion to the products.


Religion is universalistic throughout the ages. There are numerous religions in the world. I think it is necessary to know about the religion to understand global situation.

What do I hate more than anything

     I hate cockroaches. It is because the form and motion of cockroaches make me very uncomfortable. The brown color form is visually discomfort and the speedy motion, running and flying make many people horrible. Before I came to Tokyo, I was in Fukuoka Prefecture. In Fukuoka Prefecture, cockroaches appear in summer. When I was an elementary school student, I often encountered them at summer vacation. They appeared everywhere in my house. When I stayed in my house due to the absence of my parents, a cockroach appeared in living room. I could not take action. All of a sudden, it flied toward me. I cried because of fear. Fortunately, it did not touch me, but I cannot remove this memory. Because of that experience I hate cockroaches. It is no exaggeration to say that I want to extinct them.

What "love" means to me?

     It is very difficult for me to define what love means to me. When I think about love, I come up with a feeling of love for my lover in the first place. Love for my lover sometimes makes me happy or comfortable, but sometimes makes me depressed or upset. In the second place, I come up with a feeling of love for my family or friends. Love for my family or friends is different from love for my lover in terms of the extremes of my mind. Put simply, my mind is wavering in love for my lover, but it rarely happens in love for my family or friends. I think love for my lover is passionate, and love for my family or friends is static.

What is "happiness" to me

     I feel happy with various timing. 

I like my family, so I feel happy when I stay with them. They bring comfort to me. 

I like friends of mine, so I feel happy when I chat, drink, have a great fuss with them. They often inspire and help me. 

I like books, so I feel happy when I read any kinds of books. They give me intelligence. 

I like chocolates, so I feel happy when I eat chocolates. They make me work well.

It is difficult for me to define what is happiness. However, I believe happiness is always around me.

What is my favorite movie

  I love Sono Shion's films. One of my favorite his films is HIMIZU. His movies have so much energy. When I watch his movies, I always feel overwhelmed. According to Whatculture.com, Himizu is based on a Japanese manga that tells the story of young Sumida who fights for his right to lead an ordinary life, with no need nor desire of being special. It is hard for me to tell the story accurately, but you can understand the message of this movie when you watch. I love the performance of main characters. I was really enchanted with their performance.  I really recommend you to this movie!

What is my greatest strengths and weaknesses?

     One of my greatest strengths is optimism. I am an optimist person and I often think that everything will be all right when I have tons of things to do. However, when I am fall in love with a pretty woman, I become very pessimistic person. Another strength is that I do not have likes and dislikes. One of my greatest weaknesses is shyness. I am very shy, and I usually be shy with new people. It takes me lots of time to get friendly with new people. Another weakness is that I often loosen my wallet when I find something I want to buy. I have to manage my money before I become bankrupt.
