2012.4.1

A new month has started. April is shigatsu (四月) in Japanese. Its old name is uzuki (卯月). April is a starting month for Japanese society. School starts in April. The entrance ceremonies called nyugakushiki (入学式) are usually held on April 5 in Kanto area. New staffs enter the companies in April. The entrance ceremony called nyushashiki (入社式) are usually held on April 1 but this year since it falls on Sunday, it will be held tomorrow.
It was very fine today and seems like the spring has come, but they say it will be cold tomorrow again.
There were big earthquakes in Fukushima (福島) tonight.
