Hello Kitty
|
Hello Kitty is produced by the Japanese company Sanrio. She is a female
white Japanese
bobtail cat with a red bow and her full name is Kitty
White.
The character was introduced in Japan in 1974 and brought to the
United States in 1976. The character is a staple of the kawaii (loveable and
cute) segment of Japanese
popular culture.
At age 36 as of 2010, Sanrio has groomed Hello
Kitty into a global marketing phenomenon worth $5 billion a year.
She can be found on almost anything - baby blankets, school supplies,
clothing…and on and on…including kid TV shows with
more characters. Hello Kitty is also the main character at the
two Japanese Sanrio theme parks, Harmonyland and the indoor Sanrio Puroland.

This week was a
great week!
Monday we had a lesson with a sister who is becoming more
active. It is good that we go and talk with her.
Tuesday we weeded. It was pouring. The member lived far way. We went up
many, many hills. Changed into jeans, weeded. We spent three hours or so
weeding and luckily, the rain stopped when we got to her house to weed! After
weeding and dirty from the mud, we shared a small message in her genkan (a
small entry way into a Japanese home…this is where you take off your shoes and leave them). We then
raced back home to make it in time. And it did not really rain coming back! J
On Wednesday while my companion was teaching with someone who is going to be
leaving on a mission next month, Sister B. and I went with the elders to a college.
There we surveyed, we cannot actively proselyte or wear our nametags but I asked
the following questions and asked the students if the would be interested in
learning more.
1. What is the most important thing to you right now?
2. Do you believe God exists?
3. If you could ask God anything, what would you ask?
We also told them about 英会話.
We have an appointment for this coming Wednesday; Sister B. talked to someone
who wanted to learn more.
Thursday night we went to two
apartments we set appointments for the previous week. Not interested anymore.
On Friday
we visited Sister K. She is from Utah and her husband had a stroke. Brother K.
is still in a coma but they were able to go home Sunday. She was happy that we
came.
On Saturday, in the morning, I taught the Kids 英会話 class. Six young kids came! Japanese kids are crazy!!!!!!!! Also, we were able to meet and set an
appointment for tonight with Brother E. He is a Christian.
