watching: 
Princess Mononoke
From watching Princess Mononoke, I now know where these things come from.
I've always wondered . . . .
Q: What is Kodama, the white little creature?
Kodama means "echo" (its literal meaning is a "tree spirit"). However, since its name is written in Katakana, not in Kanji, it could also mean "small ball" or "small spirit". They (there are many, in various sizes and shapes) are a kind of spirit who live in the forest. Although Kodama (a tree spirit) appears in many Japanese folktales, Kodama as a little white creature is Miyazaki's creation.

Oh those white things are spirits? I always thought they were just some random figures made of rocks or something.... :P

Well I tend to change very quickly. For instance, I was at the Boardwalk with my friends and then all of a sudden I got really depressed, even though I'd just been enjoying myself immensely. It was so noticeable that my mom thought I had gotten sick on one of the rides because I wouldn't talk....
