By: Jin Song, Peak AssociateOshougatsu, which is Japanese for New Year, is celebrated at the start of January. It is also known as shougatsu. Typical traditions include house cleaning to symbolize new beginnings, viewing the first sunrise, and the consumption of special dishes like herring roe, pickled lotus root, and candied chestnut. On the fourth day of 2025, I attended Oshōgatsu: Japanese New Year Celebrations at the Nikkei National Museum and Cultural Centre with my brother.

By: Jin Song, Peak AssociateMy first experience of SFU’s Burnaby campus was struggling to find TASC 9204 for an absurd amount of time. Even with the help of Google Maps, SFU Snap, the campus maps, and strangers (none of whom actually knew where the room was), first-year me decided that SFU was, indeed, a maze. Three years later, I still get lost . . . which is actually really exciting.

By: Jin Song, Peak AssociateContent warning: mentions of animal cruelty. In another, far-off universe, humans might be photosynthetic — converting sunlight to energy as our source of food. Luckily, in our universe, we get to enjoy the great pleasure of eating food. As a primary ingredient to life, food has been driving human behaviour since time immemorial. It’s no surprise it has become a cornerstone in human culture, identity, celebration, and expression.
