Balanced Meals Bring Healthy Mind and Body!<\/h1>\n

When I walk through the meat and seafood sections at the supermarket, I am fascinated by the ways they are cut that we do not see in Japan. There are more selections of different parts of meat, mostly lean meat. Compared to “Wagyu” that has delicious reticular marbles of fat, on the contrary, lean meat has light, chewy taste with the original flavor of meat, and you never get tired of it. On the other hand, the fish section has many kinds of beautiful fish\u2026. My electric dictionary helps me find the names of fish unknown to me, and I enjoy buying fish using body language.
\n In Japan, there is a tendency to favor fish and vegetable over meat as one gets older, however, it resulted in malnutrition among the elderly, so eating meat is encouraged now. Fish also is high in nutrients, with unsaturated fatty acid including DHA and EPA, is encouraged to take daily for any age group to maintain good health, promote healthy growth, and to activate the brain.
\n Talking of fish, Tsukiji Market, which had been called the “Kitchen of Japan” for 83 years and was a tourist attraction, closed recently. It moved to Toyosu Market. As time passes, so does the food market of Japan, and so are the foods we eat. We all are busy with raising children and working every day, but let us take a close look at our own bodies and the food we eat. The balance is always important, and as we enjoy the “Fall of Harvest” and the “Fall of Appetite,” we should look into the lifestyle of a balanced diet and exercise.<\/p>\n

“Chihayafuru\u2026” Do you know the rest of this poem?<\/h2>\n

\u2014Middle Scholl Fall Cultural Festival\u2014<\/b>
\nThe Middle School had the Cultural Festival on Saturday, October 20th. In the first part, Hyakunin Isshu (the Hundred Poems by One Hundred Poets), the students listened earnestly and looked for the card with the latter half of the poem as the first part was read in silence. After the heated battle, Saya Lapreziosa (M3) and Yuji Kuniyuki (M2) became the champions. In the latter session, after listening to Mr. Ohnishi of Japan Shogi Association interestingly talk about the history of Shogi that was in a way related to Philadelphia, the professional world of Shogi, and how the Shogi boards are made, the students tried either Shogi, kirigami (paper cutting), kumihimo (braid-making), or calligraphy. It was a day of learning the joy and the depth of the Japanese culture. The photos will be posted on the second floor of the Main Building on Saturday, October 27th. Please come to see them!<\/p>\n

Reading is the Best Thing to Do on Long Fall Nights!<\/b>
\nThe temperature has gone much lower in the mornings and evenings these days, and not just it went deeper to fall but almost the arrival of winter is felt, and I am a little puzzled. The sunset becomes earlier day by day. To enjoy the longer nights and to spend time wisely, let us read books! I am looking forward to hearing the news of more students receiving the “Yokozuna” Awards.<\/p>\n
