Bear is Back, Baby!

Try saying that title five times fast! (If you're one of the dunce's like me who actually tried that, you'll notice it's not actually that hard to say)


So, it's me Bear (as I'm sure you figured out), and I was told by Monkey to make a post! Sorry, Mon-Mon that you told me to make it around one in the afternoon, and it's almost six now…


I almost didn't write this post, because I couldn't think of anything to write about! But here I am, and my fingers are flying across the keyboard, so I suppose I'm writing SOMETHING!


Now, since me and the other two Essential Animals don't really have a plan for this blog, maybe whoever is reading this (aka, YOU!) could give us some ideas? I was thinking maybe something about memories or interesting things that happen during our day?


If you're curious about my day, well, let's just say I spent it researching and writing about space history! That's how exciting I am!


While I'm sitting here, drumming my fingers against the keyboard, wondering what to write about, I was just suddenly struck by an inane mental picture! I could weirdly imagine Steve (Our Tamoner) creeping up behind me as I sit at my desk! I had to resist the urge to whip around and check if he is actually there.


So, I asked Cat what I should tell the world about in my post, and she suggested the weird words that randomly get stuck in my head! I've had four so far! Completely random, probably made-up words!


I'll start with the very first one! Hyakunin. Don't tell me where it sprouted from! Just one day, I was sitting at my desk (not unlike right now) when the word popped into my head! A few days after that, I was watching anime (can't remember which one, sorry) when I heard 'Hyakunin' in the opening theme song! The song was in Japanese, so I'm not quite sure what it means! But I feel I should look into it!


Number two! Shenron. SSHHHEEEEENRRRROOONNN! Sorry, I felt the need to drag the word out slowly and loudly! So, I have an idea about this one! As to how it randomly came into my brain, well, who knows!? I'm a big DragonBall and DragonBall Z fan, and everybody knows that the dragon is named Shenlong! Well, little and more hearing-impared me used to think that his name was indeed Shenron! So, there's that one for ya!


Next comes Mufliato…. I don't have much to say about this, actually. Monkey (who is a big Harry Potter geek) thinks it sounds like a spell name! But, eh! What do I know!?


Numero four has now arrived! I'm not ashamed to say that number four will not be my limit. I will most likely be greeted by other random words sometime in the near future! If you'd like to hear back from me about my soon-to-be new words, tell me in the comments below! Anyway, getting to the subject; Yakisoba. It sounds like some kind of Japanese noodle or something! Maybe it's a mangaka's name? It could also possibly be a car!


Now, I'm afraid my post is getting a little to long! But if you happen to know what any of these words ACTUALLY mean, please let me know! I'd love to hear about it!

  2. 焼きそば, or Yakisoba as most English speaking people spell it, is a fried noodle dish from Japan, we made it in Japanese last semester! It was Delicious! Now Hyakunin or ひゃくにん. I'm not sure what that means, but if i find out, I'll let you know! Love the blog, keep posting!
