Licca (11 years of age) Official Twitter: Her Answers to Talking about Worries Too Serious

Do you knoe “Licca-chan”?
Let’s check her profile.

    
Licca-chan Profile

I have a cheerful scatterbrain in the 5th grade.
My favorite color is pink.
My favorite flower is a red rose.
I love cooking sweets.

Licca profile
*Name             Rika Kayama
*Birthday        May 3
*Zodiac sign     Taurus
Height              142 cm
Weight             34 kg
She is found to be in the fifth grade. I have expected that she is in the elementary school. However, I was slightly shocked from the fact that her father is 36, her mother is 33 and her grandmother is 56.

Licca-chan has such a family structure. The other day I happened to find this tweet in her official Twitter.

"Canard jaw, live chicken"

As a matter of fact, she was a blogger around 2007. The content sounded to be very outlandish; taking a picture with pig heads.

I tried in vain to find out her official blog with expectation. She seems to use the social networking site Twitter now.

Then, I visited her site on Twitter.





Licca-chan Official Site:
I’m going to have my favorite, a big macaron in my tea time today!
Everybody, why don’t you have a brief break with sweets?

Checking the Twitter, I have discovered an interesting project.



Licca-chan:
During summer, I’m going to carry out “Let’s have a counseling session with Licca campaign.” Please follow Licca (@bonjour_licca) and tweet to what you want to counsel with me at “”#Counsel with Licca.” I might give advice?! I’m waiting for your inquiry.
July 19, 2014 10:44


Surprisingly, a campaign was carried out, where you can seek advice from Licca on twitter. Regrettably, the campaign was over on August 31. I wonder what kind of questions followers asked Licca (5th grader). Let’s see ithem.


Q: The person I like pays no attention to me.  
Is it all right to induce him to marry me because I want to be happy?

All of a sudden, a serious question is asked. It is a tough question to answer it. I, though a grown up, also have difficulty in answering it. I wonder how Licca-chan, a 5th grader, will answer it.





Licca-chan: I’ m still not sure of the answer. It is often said that 
“marriage is not the gold but a starting point.” 
Being happy after marriage depends on mutual efforts, I think.

How awesome! It’s precise advice which can be hardly expected to be given by a pupil in the elementary school. Although she says at the beginning of her answer: “Licca, I’ m still not sure of the answer,” this is the “answer indicating that she knows everything.”

Subsequently, Licca gives sound advice to questions from followers one after another.


Q: Licca-chan, what do you want to try this summer? I want to try cooking.
Licca-chan: I want to challenge yoga, for I have a stiff body.

Licca-chan is good with jokes, too



Q: Recently my legs are terribly swollen. In the evening my legs are a memory pillow. 
What should I do if I want to have beautiful legs like yours?

Licca-chan: Avoid eating hot or strong-tasting food. Pass out of the body waste products, 
extra water and toxins. Try to eat cucumbers, bananas or apples.


Licca-san is familiar with detox, too.


Q: What shall I do to make myself a beloved woman?
Licca-chan: First of all, love others.


To become a beloved woman, you should love others fist.” (11 years of age)




Q: There is a person I like. But I’m too shy to talk to him.
Licca-chan: Shyness comes from motivation to hide real feelings. 
In an opposite manner, confess to him: “I can’t speak well because I feel tense,” 
and you could feel released. He might think that you are so cute.


Licca-san has reached the level of professional counsellor on love advice.

Licca-chan: According to a person named Jean de La Bruyerre, 
a person falls in love only once. It is “first love.” How romantic!


She is completely above me in terms of knowledge level.

Like this, official Twitter of Licca, eternally 11-year-old girl, is full of instructive rule of life. I want to secretly follow her from now on.


Bear Rescues Crow Stuck in Water in Hungary Zoo (Video)

Bear Rescues Crow Stuck in Water in Hungary Zoo (Video)

Although apparently the bear has the intention to rescue the crow, he appears to handle the crow a little bit roughly.  At any rate, he is so cool that after rescuing the crow, he pretends to be indifferent to the bird as if saying “I had no intention to eat you.”

Bear Rescues Crow Stuck in Water in Hungary Zoo (Video)

People who visited a Budapest zoo in Hungary witnessed an unusual drama in the bear’s enclosure as follows:

One crow fell into the pond covered with floating grass and couldn’t reach the ground.  Looking on the crow, a bear tried to scoop it by his front paw.  After trying several times, he understood he couldn’t make it.  Now he carefully held the cow between his teeth and managed to pull it out.

Subsequently, the bear left there and returned to the feeding area where there were apples and carrots.  He kept eating them in silence without a glance at the crowd, while the bird froze with fear.


The crow acted strangely.  In the last scene of the video, we can see the crow take a rest in the enclosure of the bear that was gentle enough to save the bird, probably because the cow felt relieved to know he was unlikely to be eaten.


What a terrific dog that sets a good example of crawling for a baby!

This dog apparently recognizes what he is doing.  I am not the only one who thinks that this dog has far more elegant and intellectual atmosphere than politicians often appearing on TV.

This is terrific!
This dog is crawling with stretching out hindpaws, not by accident but with a clear purpose of teaching a baby how to crawl.

As seen in the mass media, human intelligence has apparently deteriorated.  However, the intelligence of animals such as dogs and cats appears to have definitely advanced.  Watching this video, you will be convinced of it.

I posted “Shareton Shwatch” on February 19. I don’t know exactly why, but this girl overlaps the image of Mother of Ultra. I wonder if she is a member of the Ultra tribe.
This CM is made so perfectly that it conveys her charm to the fullest. I was impressed by well-made CM and wanted to know how it was shot. While watching the Making video, I realized that she did smash tiles with her head. To my surprise, she did it in person.

“I can’t endure any more. I mean it!” Faces of dogs beyond bearing (Photos & Video)

Dogs might do their own best and enjoy their lives while going through hardships.

1. No water any more.

2. Maximum limit of patience


7. I’m not a fool.

8. Oh, I can’t stop sliding.

11. I look unnatural, though pretending to have a smile on the face.

14. I want to eat you as much as I want to eat you.

16. I regret what I did. Please forgive me.

17. How dangerous!



A dog patiently listens to an owner scolding him.

When Oita Governor Kabashima introduced activities of Kumamon that has been actively participating in events at home and abroad, using poster panels, the Empress asked a question: “One person gets into Kumamon?” The governor answered with a forced smile: “I don’t want to disappoint the dreams of children. Kumamon is Kumamon.”

Cat Sitting on Chair Lives in Her Own Way Today, Too


High- definition images provide stability I love.
They add high-grade sense to the images as if Fusuma doors and tatami mats looked better and better.
Mimi-san seems to be pleasantly engaged in spiritual practice.
It appears that finally her guru went the OK.
