      wonderful childhood

      Taeko is 27 years old. She asked the company for a ten-day leave to enjoy the long-awaited rural life in the countryside. Since then, she has often reminisced about her fifth grade year. Along the way, she kept recalling the past events in the fifth grade. When she arrived at her destination, she was greeted by a country boy, Junxiong, who was 2 years younger than her. She started the life of a farmer and enjoyed it, sharing with Junxiong the little things about her childhood, and the...

      It's a movie I've watched many times

      All of Hayao Miyazaki's films can't be expressed in the word "like". It is a kind of thing that can really enter the heart.
            Memories also remind me of many past events in this rare and cold winter in Kunming today. The sunshine is transparent, and it is rare to be cold today. It is really a good weather for watching this kind of movie.
            I like the latter part the most. When I am self-willed, I will feel that I have been possessed by me in a certain period. I even suspect...

      say goodbye to the past

      Today I agreed to go to Harbour City with my friends to change a pair of jeans, and accompany her to the stadium by the way. She is going to watch Eason Chan's concert.

      It's raining today and it's a lot colder. I was wearing shorts yesterday and I'm wearing knitted sweaters today. Didn't go to the dean's boring class in the morning, and he called.

      After eating Maocai, I saw this movie on Weibo, so I clicked it to watch it, and a bland fantasy journey unfolded in front of me....

      Years have taught me

      There was once a boy who always liked to bully girls at the same table. The girl didn't understand why he only bullied himself when he was good to others, but she was timid and didn't have the courage to ask the teacher to change seats. I just put up with him without a tablecloth, and with him crying, until I changed seats again a year later, so I said goodbye to him excitedly, but he changed seats with the boy in front and sat next to the girl again. Six-year-old boys and girls in primary...

      a childhood memory

      In those elementary school days, the matter of who likes whom is a hot topic discussed behind the scenes by a few good girl groups. Although there is no basis, but as soon as there is trouble, it will immediately become the target of public criticism. When Taeko was 27, she smiled like a child when she recalled the question "If you compare rainy days, cloudy days and sunny days, what kind of weather do you like best?" Maybe she doesn't like rainy days, but this answer indicates that I...

      I just watched the new generation of Japanese Hong Kong urban farmers in Ming's July issue, and happened to watch this 1991 animation of Tokyo women returning to the countryside. It's also the one-year anniversary of my plan to return to the countryside. Last year in my hometown, I once walked back to the countryside, and it was getting late. Although I didn't return to my ancestral home, I stopped my motorcycle halfway when it was dark and went back to the city. This process has been very...

      A young boy in his school days, afraid of being laughed at during his menstrual period, sometimes ignoring his parents, incomprehensible love, and labor experience outside of work. It was Japan that had just held the Olympic Games and everything was booming, but the girl's heart was not always so bright. Years go by, and fairy tales last forever. When you enter the world of adults, you will find what is precious. The main line is the memories of personal life in labor in the following villages....

      The delicate oriental sentiments resonate very much, and the simple double-line structure creates a sense of parallelism of the years. Many times, I also have an 11-year-old self in my mind trying to correct the life I'm in. Takahata Isao is the number one Ghibli master in my heart. In the title of "Drawing Supervisor", I can't help but feel heartbroken when I see the words Kondo...
