10th January is the Coming-of-Age Day. I went to the ceremony. At 4 a.m. I got up and I went to the beauty salon at 5:30. There, I have my hair set. At 7 a.m. I went to the Wedding Box to put on a long-sleeved kimono. There are a lot of people. At Wedding Box, I met a friend who went to the same elementary school. At first, I recognized her, but she spoke to me. I was so happy that she remembered me. At 10 a.m. I arrived at the site of Coming-of-Age celebration. I called my friends and met them. It was so difficult to find my friends because there were a lot of people! I met Taku and Nami by chance. At 11 a.m. the ceremony started. I attended the ceremony with Marist friends, Yoko, Ayaka and Miyo. At end of the ceremony, 7 elementary school students played the hand bell for us. They are so cute!!! One of them, maybe he is the youngest, shook himself to music. It was the heartwarming scene.
After the cerem
ony, we went to Marist junior high/ high school. When we arrived, many Marist friends already had arrived. About 90 graduates and some teachers gathered at Marist. I haven't seen most of them for 2 years. I was so happy to meet them. At first, we took a commemorative photo.There is a old photographer attached to. He is good at setting people laughing with his jokes. When he comes to take pictures, he always brings puppets and sets us laughing with them. After that, we had a light meal at the lunch room. We played bingo and talk a lot. At 4 p.m. I went home and changed into clothes for the after-party.
About 70 were present at the after-party. We had the after-party at John Roe, which is a bar in the downtown. Salad was the most delicious, so I ate it a lot. We had quite a good time reminiscing. At 8:30, the after-party finished. Some went to karaoke and others went to a bar. I went to the Swiss, it is a cafe, with 5 friends. At Swiss, I ate a cake. It was so cute and delicious. We found a teacher of Marist, but we didn't spoke to him because he was with a woman. At 10 p.m. we said good-bye. It was a special day.
