Biographical/Historical Note |
The following is a video clip from an oral history interview with Yaeko Bryner. "When we were in Japan we helped with soy beans at the home of a farmer. The soy beans are pulled out of the ground whole and sold that way. But you bundle them in sets of so many and you had to estimate that there was an acceptable number of beans included in each bundle. Then you took a piece of twine and tied it a certain way so that when it was untied it would fall open with a single pull. So, you know it made sense all the times my dad would make us do things just a certain way. He was disappointed if we'd get the task done, but if it wasn't done a certain way. At Japanese School, they taught you to write characters in a certain order or how the teacher would make us exercise at the beginning of class. Now you know that that would probably do our kids a lot of good because it kind of gets your brain in order. So anyway all these things, I just remember changing. It's that old saying, 'Your parents get a lot smarter the older you get.'" |
