Had a special time★


I enjoyed school festival last weekend!! Every year it was held three days long. The first day is costume parade for freshman, in contrast, second and last day are opened to the public.

I was involved in two club activity and both of these set up shop.

One is the shop of selling YAKISOBA. Do you know it? It is like a baking noodle with some vestibules and pork seasoned lightly-salted source. In addition to yakisoba, we were sold yakisoba sandwich and some drink. We were selling it wearing YUKATA that is traditional Japanese summer costume. Here is a picture of YUKATA.Sales were very nice and after the festival we had a big drinking party...

The other shop is selling mostly sweets of sweet potato, coffee, cocoa and tea. Our club member are interested in fare trade, so we used drinking material from fare trade goods. Also we sold for some Vietnam folk arts. It is so cute! The sales of these goods would donate NGO for Vietnam AIDS. We dressed club T-shits on to match. The T-shirts were designed by my friends and I. At first, only few people come to our shop, but as the temperature rises, many people asked for our drink and sweet potatoes!!

For two days I woke up very early morning. It was very hard for me because I would get up around 9 o'clock every day. When I put off the shop and clean up I suddenly felt loneliness.. Because I spent a good time with club members. I hope to have a nicer time with them next year's festival too!!

ooo! That sounds really delicious! I want to try some of that if I ever come over to Japan. It looks everyone there during that time has a lot of fun.

I wish we had events like that during the school year. Stuff like that happens very rarely. Last event where there was free food and costumes was Halloween. But it's traditional here. Do you celebrate Halloween or no?

Your English is improving greatly as else as everyone else. I have one small correction. On your sentence "I woke up very early morning" this doesn't make sense and it can be confusing. It's easier to get rid of morning at the end of that sentence and then it will be perfect.

Keep it up (^_^)
