☆Fancy dress contest☆

We have 3days at School Festival. The first day is Fancy dress contest. Second and third day are Festival, some comedians and singers perform, many clubs play music and dance, and there were many booths. When I was 1st& 2nd grade, I took part in Fancy dress contest with my friends, and we were champion at this contest. When I was 1st grade, our theme was 'Alice in wonder land'. About 30 people dressed up such as Alice, soldiers of card, king, queen and rabbit. I dressed up small king. It's handmade all of them. We have to walk 4km as dress costume. Start is Yamanashi University, then Takeda St and shopping arcade. It's important to walk in shopping arcade. Because staff(working shop here) is judge of contest. We had to show our costume for them. We said 'we hope to do good business in your shop' each shops. Then we clapped our hands only one time after say 'Yo'. This perform is lucky form in Japan. We went to Kofu Station and Castle of Maizuru. We had lunch here. When we finished lunch, we ran to Yamanashi University (about1.5km). It was very hard.When I was 2nd grade, our theme was 'Disney land'.We dressed us such as Mickey & Minnie Mouse, Donald Duck, Pooh, Monster's Inc and Peter Pan.I dressed up Tinker Bell.Do you think my Tinker Bell is cute?

All the costumes in your pictures are really cool, or as we would say here in New Hampshire, they are wicked cool.

We had dress up contests when I was in high school. I dressed up as Madonna when I was a freshmen, a cowgirl when I was a sophomore, a Greek Goddess when I was a Junior, and an alien when I was a Senior. It was a lot of fun!

A few sentences in your entry were a little choppy and I was a little confused when you talked about your grades, but that's just because we refer to them differently here. Otherwise I found your post quite articulate.

I hope I can go to one of these festivals someday, when I go to Japan.

You had also dress up contest, didn't you? I know you had a good time on this contest.
I'm fourth grade now. So, I took part in this contest two or three years ago.
