What happened to Monday? An extremely violent thriller/science fiction movie that has an intriguing and interesting plot based on septuplets that keep a low profile to avoid being killed as they live in a time where there can only be one child per family... There's a lot that can be said about this film, so I would like for you to watch it and let me know what you think.

Today's topic is "Getting busier Japanese in December".  Most of Japanese say "I'm busy! I'm busy!" in December. Why so specially busy for Japanese in December? I'm going to talk about it today. 
*************************************************
日本の12月は　忙しいです。
12月のことを昔の暦で師走（しはす）と言います。これは　先生が走るくらい忙しいという意味です。走るというだけでも、なんだか忙しそうですよね。
でも、どうして12月が　そんなに忙しいのでしょうか。
個人的には、年賀状を書いたり、大掃除をしたりする上に、クリスマスパーティ―や、忘年会などがあります。　私も以前は　年賀状を100枚ぐらい書いていました。デザインや宛名書きをパソコンで作ってしまえば簡単です。でも、それでは味気ないような気がして、私は、宛名と短いメッセージは手書きで書いています。大掃除では、普段しないところまで　ていねいにするので時間がかかって、大変です。　平日の昼間は仕事なので、週末にこれらのことをすべてしなければなりません。
忘年会は「1年間いろいろおつかれさま～」という気持ちで、飲んだり食べたりする会です。　会社で働いていたころは、この忘年会が12月に2，3回はありました。社内の人との忘年会、取引先の方たちとの忘年会、そして、親しい友人だけでする忘年会です。おいしいものが食べられるのはいいけれど、結構　気を遣うことも多かったです。そのため、忘年会のあとに体調を崩すことも何回かありました。
一般的に、会社では、今している仕事を翌年にまで持ち越さないようにするとか、逆に年明けすぐにスタートできるように準備するなどがあります。　12月末を1年の区切り（くぎり）として考える習慣のようなものが、私たちをより忙しくさせるのだと思います。今まで溜めていたことを終わらせようとすることで業務が増えると、周りの人の仕事も増えてしまう。それがどんどん他のところにも伝染していくんですね。そして、「忙しい」「忙しい」と走り回る人が増えていくという・・・悪循環のようなものです。
私は、今　会社で働いていないので、こういう忙しさはありませんが、それでも
「部屋を年内に片づけなくちゃ！」「窓ふき、庭の手入れ、部屋の掃除もしなくちゃ！」「年賀状はどうしよう？」など　頭の中は大忙しです。　今日はもう12月14日。お正月まであと17日しかありませんが、まだ　何もしていません！ああ、忙しい！どうしよう！

FLO TALKS 

KNOW WHAT YOU WANT

There's a video on TikTok in which a user takes a jar of seasoning called "Everything But the Bagel" and carefully separates the ingredients into small piles to find out the secret to the recipe.

The video has been viewed almost 2 million times — a sign of just how popular this seasoning mix, made by US company Trader Joe's, has become.

People like to put it on top of bagels and use it in lots of different meals.

However, fans of the mix have been finding out that it's not welcome everywhere in the world.

Signs have been posted at Incheon Airport in Seoul, telling passengers they can't bring jars of the seasoning into the country.

The reason is that one of the ingredients is banned in South Korea.

The mix contains things like sesame seeds, dried garlic, dried onion and salt — but poppy seeds are the problem.

Poppy seeds are banned in South Korea because they are narcotic-related items, according to the airport. The ban is not new but travelers have said that airports are now cracking down on the seasoning mix.

The seeds are also banned in a number of other countries, including Saudi Arabia and Singapore.

The poppy plant is used to make drugs like heroin and morphine, although the seeds don't contain any opiates.

However, the country worries that the seeds could be contaminated by opiates.

In fact, in the US, members of the armed forces have been advised not to eat products containing poppy seeds in case they affect the results of drug tests.

Drug tests can be very sensitive but experts say that it would be almost impossible to eat enough poppy seeds to feel any narcotic effect.
