Shubunkin
- Named after a hardy breed of fancy goldfish of Japanese origins. As his name is a bit of a handful, Shubunkin has adopted the nickname 'Shubu'.![]()
I see him as being nothing other than a handsome young Male![]()
Shubu's favourite game is Goldfish Scooping.
Goldfish Scooping, also known as Kingyo-sukui or Goldfish Snatching, is a popular traditional Japanese game played during the summer festivals.
The purpose is to catch as many goldfish as possible using a special scooper called poi, which is built with thin paper on a round frame that breaks easily. At the end of the game players are usually allowed to keep the fish they win and the game ends when the thin paper covering the poi has completely broken.
Shubunkin was first introduced to the game by his father, who came from Tokyo, Japan to Sydney, Australia years ago.
Shubu had always been interested in learning more about his Japanese heritage, often studying and discovering new facts, so when his father once mentioned a time when he used to run a Goldfish Scooping stall during the summer festivals, a captivated Shubu jumped at the chance to learn and try it for himself. His father crafted a homemade stall complete with a few fish and some makeshift poi, much to the young bean's delight. Unfortunately because of his hasty nature, Shubu accidently broke all of the poi whenever he tried to scoop one of the fish. Soon patience, perseverance and a little bit of good luck saw the young bean’s success, and by the end of the day he’d bagged himself a fish.
This game has taught him the act of patience, something that he was seriously lacking before. He and his family tend to travel a lot, so whenever the young bean stumbles across a festival or fare that offers Goldfish Scooping, he’ll beg his father to allow him the chance to play. And being the determined lad he is, you can guarantee that he won’t leave until he’s won himself a new goldfish.

as the lukewarm hands of the gods
came down and gently picked my adrenaline pearls
they placed them in their mouths and rinsed all the fear out

the best way to start anew
is to fail miserablyBjörk
