After 41 years without a boy, the Japanese Royal family has been blessed with a boy. The news is so big that since yesterday morning it was the only thing people talked about. The citizens are rejoicing the birth of this child like he's some sort of saviour...but I was just wondering, what does the royal family do for Japan? What does ANY royal family's do for their country??
Doesn't the governement run the country? Does the royal family have a say in the important issues that effect the people of the country??
The way people are referring to this 2 day old baby is with the highest degree of honour and respect. It's amazing to hear this type of Japanese used...everyday people in their own environment will refer to the baby in a very respectful way. Guess that's how it feels when you're born with a gold spoon in your mouth.
On another note, my English conversation class started again last night. It was fun chatting with them. We were talking about SUMMER. Write down six words you relate to summer and why.
My six words were...BBQ; afternoon thunderstorms; fireworks; beach; sweat; HOLIDAYS!!!
