Have fun with this website! Typically Japanese - fun and full of surprises!

It reveals the great mystery of how the arrow on your computer screen works when you move your mouse.
If you don't understand how it works....think again!

karaoke


Quiz:

What does "Karaoke" means?

Faces lit up when I mentioned that I was at karaoke a few days before.
"How nice~! I want to go too!" a young man sighed, " in fact, I have also just been recently."
So, what does it matter, he wants to go again!

This afternoon, I was having a series of email exchanges with a high school girl whom I have met only once.
"Let's go out somewhere together!" I wrote, "we can do bowling, go to a game centre, karaoke, go to the movies, rent a DVD, whatever!"

"I want to go to karaoke!" came the reply....

So it's back to this again, singing into a mike...
Not that I don't want to do it, but that I (Lucy, that is) sing so very badly....
Out of tune, out of time, can't hit the high notes, can't catch the key or the melody....

Anyone worse than me out there??

Nonetheless, it is a great way to meet people and build relationship.
And well, if I sing badly, anyone singing with me can only feel encouraged and become more confident! Always a plus.

So if you are good at singing, come join us as a karaoke missionary!!

Answer: "kara"means empty, "oke"is the shortened form for orchestra.
