February 1st Thursday （一月 一日 木曜日）

　　Today is the first day of this month.  The Spring Festival is coming again.
In the ancient Chinese convention, the pig year is coming soon. There are twelve
kinds of animals used to represent year by year.  They made a cycle.

  In our ancestors' eyes, pig represents fortune and lucky of a family.  So, in
the Chinese character "Jia" -- 家, hiding a pig.

  Nowadays pig is more and more liked by people.  Cartoon pigs are so likely due
to its plump body and lucky smile.  Some people begin to raise pigs as their pets.
More than, some pigs became stars, or stars in HelloWoods.

  Because of the love for pigs, pigs, especially pigges, are not foolish.  In ｆairy
tale, three piggies defeated a terrible wolf.  This classical story has a number of
revision. 

今日は１月一日。
