Tanka

 Do you know "Tanka", Japanese classical culture?

It is short poem of 31syllables arranged in a pattern of 5-7-5-7-7.

I like to read tanka, It is interesting!


Last day, I bought new book of tanka.

It is written by Tatuya Kinoshita, my favorite poet.

Let me introduce his tanka little bit.

・立てるかい　君が背負っているものを君ごと背負うこともできるよ

(Taterukai kimigaseotte irumonowo kimigotoseou kotomodekiruyo)

Can you stand up? I can carry you and your burden on my back.


・読み終えてややふっくらとした本にあなたの日々が挟まれている

(Yomioete yayahukkurato sitahonnni anatanohibiga hasamareteiru)

Your days are tucked away in the plump book that you have finished reading 


・愛された犬は来世で風となりあなたの日々を何度も撫でる

(Aisareta inuharaisede kazetonari anatanohibiwo yasasikunaderu)

The dog loved you will become soft wind in the next world, Caressing your days over and over again.

    I've never read a tanka firmly now. I thought I'd like to read it from now on.

Hello from me

イメージ
I'm Yuhina Suzuki, Nice to meet to. Please call me Yuhina or Hina! I'm from Niigata prefecture and living in Sanjo city. My home town is famous for hardware such as cutlery and nail clipper, so there are many craftsmen in there.  I love Sanjo very much, but I want to live alone recently. That's why it is so far from university. My home town is very local. It takes one and a half hours to go to the University by train. In winter, the trains may be delay and stop due to snow. If the trains do that, I can't go to the University and take a class. It is big problem for me. Thus, I want to live near the University alone and I want my university to build student dormitory.    I love Niigata, my family, and my friends, so I didn't think about going outside the prefecture. Also, I was interested in educational issues in developing countries. Therefore, I choose the University of Niigata Prefecture that can learn international issues and get teacher's license. Actually,

My favorite painting

Yesterday's class, we studied about artifact. Actually, I really like to go to art museum and I'm interested in western painting recently. So, let me tell you my three most favorite painting. First is about "The Starry Night" . This painting is one of Van Gogh's masterpieces, so many people know it. It is very vivid and beautiful. Especially blue color is so nice. However, It was painted a year before Van Gogh's death and based on the view from the room where he was admitted. Also, European people thought that cypress means the bridge between heaven and earth. He may have painted this painting in search of meaning in his own death or salvation. When I went to the Immersive Museum with my friend, we drank drinks inspired by this painting! Second is about "A Burial At Ornans" painted by Gustave Courbet. At that time, painter couldn't paint large of ordinary people because of class discrimination.  But he painted large picture of ordinary people&#

      My artifact is the wallet. It is square and the size of it is about as big as the palm of my hand. The wallet is made from cow leather, so the color keeps changing with use. When I got this wallet, the color was pale orange. But now that it similar to brown. Also, I don't know why, but it smells like frozen blueberries sold at SEVEN-ELEVEN.         This wallet is from my favorite brand, IL BISONTE. I love the bland and my family loves it, too. I thought I want this wallet when I found it for the first time. So, I had been telling my mom for a while that I wanted it,       I often said "How cute this wallet! it isn't? I love this texture", "I will buy this wallet When I get paid for my part-time job!!".       My mom remembered that! The day I found out I had been accepted to university; my mom gave it to me when I got home from school. The day is very cold. Thus, I went back to my home early. I changed cloths school uniform to my normal
