 This book is about a cat, specifically about someone asking the neko what they like/what they want. Of course, the cat likes cat-like things. Small boxes, round objects to push, and fish. At the end, the person asks if the cat wants a bath or to be brushed and the cat says they don't want either, which I found a funny way to end the book. Cats do like to groom themselves. The book is cute and I like how the cat talks back to the person or the reader perhaps?  Either way, this is a  fun and simple read.

Katakana Chart

       Learning Katakana was a bit of a different experience from learning and writing Hiragana. The symbols are much sharper, with fewer loops and softer edges. I remember writing the letters and having to make fast strokes and hold the pencil in a certain way so that I didn't accidentally make the line too long or too short. As well as timing, I feel that went into making sure the letters were at the very least readable. I found the letters to be a bit harder to remember strangely enough, despite how simple the shapes appear to be. I do know that 'RO' looks like a little box and I find that cute and memorable. Like learning Hiragana, this is like learning to write basic words in English in preschool and kindergarten. Matching the shapes and symbols to the pictures shown again is humbling. I feel like a kid again. I find it weird that there have been two writing systems for, speaking mostly English all my life. I won't claim to understand it, but I don't shun it...

  Shopping in Japan and here in America is fairly similar. You can still go to malls here despite the many dead ones and they have many shops to choose from. The mall in the special video I saw was much cooler than the one I went to. Three floors and it looks much newer than the one I'm used to. The one I go to seems like it hasn't had an update in years and the shops seem... shady. Maybe that's just the lighting. The Japanese mall has a bunch of cool shops as well, some you would expect and some you wouldn't. Toy stores, clothes stores, and restaurants are all expected. What I wasn't expecting was just an entire grocery store in the mall. That caught me off guard, you technically only expect clothes and whatnot in malls. There were also a lot of arcades which was very cool to see. There's a lot of cool stuff in malls and I wonder why malls where I live are so uninteresting. The only mall I can think of that's as interesting would be the Mall of America with...
