Hope you get what I mean. :p It sounds like what's said 20 years ago or so. lol

Your signature is linked to intensedebate, where I was not able to find URL of your blog. ?_? It sounds like the atmosphere is quite the same in Japan. We party and make a fuss over Christmas, but Christmas is not a national holiday we have to work as usual. Anyway...Happy holidays and a new year! :) I didn't know that you were blogging.

I have been away from blogging during this time of year since I tend to go all -out for Christmas. It is not a religious holiday for me since I am not Christian but Buddhist and we don't really have any Buddhist holidays except Losar (Tibetan Buddhist). Thus Christmas for me is about family, Santa Claus, traditions and great food. My family is not Christian either but non-religious so we really enjoy a Christmas that is probably more like it is in Japan. I think the Christmas Cakes are wonderful - I have a couple of tiny ones from Re-ment that are adorable. I've seen real ones in films too and in Flickr groups. We do go a little crazy here in the US at Christmas - parties, gift-giving, going into debt! I love it though and I am still listening to Christmas Carols and its three days past now. I just don't want it to end. I know that New Year's Day is big in Japan - I am anxious to read up on that. Have a great holiday season! Happy Holidays Kirin!

I wonder why your father had such a nickname that spells and sounds the same as the word that means something bad? Is it common in English to nickname someone like that and those who are nicknamed the same as some bad words do not mind that at all? I just wondered... :p If the posters of the videos didn't understand English, they wouldn't answer your question forever. I sometimes find videos taken by Japanese people where many of the same questions are commented in English but are all neglected. I don't think they do that on purpose, they just don't know how to reply... :( If I knew the answer, I should join the conversation to reply for them in English. Artwork...you mean DECOTTI? It's fine as long as you enjoy by yourself. :) I didn't know the word "dink". I wonder why your father had such a nickname that spells and sounds the same as the word that means something bad?

But i read the previous comments and found my answer. I wonder if you knew that dink is an old english slang with a derogitory meaning. If someone is being rude or acting in an unsofistticated mannor they might be refered to as a dink. A side note my aunt always refered to my father as dink. It was his nickname as a child. I was happy to see this post. I saw a few videos on Utube about Christmas in Japan and asked the posters if it had a religious meaning or was just an excuse for selling merchandise in Japan. I never got an answer and I was frustrated by the lack of response. Then I saw your blog today and was very pleased with what you had written. Thank you for taking the time to explain this. By the way I really liked the artwork from your last post and downloaded it to my computer. I hope you do not mind. I am using it as the background for my desktop. Very attractive.

Irony is usually used among very close friends and family. But thank you for explaining your culture. I'm sure Belgians are actually nice people.
