A new month has just begun. December is jyunigatsu (十二月) in Japanese. The old name is shiwasu (師走), which literally means teacher run.
A day is 24 hours, and a month is about 30 days. But we somehow feel December passes earlier than other month. People feel busy doing many things such as preparing for the new year, cleaning houses, writing Christmas cards and new year's cards, having year-end party so called bonenkai (忘年会), which literally means forget the year party, and so on.
How do you spend your December?
