A coming of age celebration













On January 10, a coming of age celebration was hold in my town. I got up early in the morning and I went to a dressing room. When I arrived at there, I met my junior high school friends. They are so beautiful. I wear a red long sleeved kimono. It is too tight so I was tired. It was difficult for me to walk with a long sleeved kimono. And I put on makeup. I wear false eyelashes. It took about 2 hours. Then I went to a hall. I met a lot of people there. I was very excited and I took a lot of pictures. Also, I talked with my teachers. They were in charge of my class. It had been five years since I saw them last. We talked about a lot of memory. I had a good time. The coming of age celebration was start at 2:30. The most interesting thing is video letters. Some teachers of my junior high school gave us some messages. Mr. Sonoda was in charge of my class when I was 3rd grade of junior high school. He taught us English. His English class was very interesting. I want to be an English teacher like him in the future.
At night, I went to a meeting of an alumni association. It was held at Arao. About 70 people gathered. A lot of people changed so I didn’t know who they are. I hadn’t eaten food since in the morning. So I was very hungry. I ate a lot of foods and drank beer. Some friends were singing to a karaoke. I was very laughing. The meeting finished at 10:00. Then we went to a game center. We hold a continuation of a party at another place. It was interesting but I was very tired. Then I went to my friend home. And I talked about a lot of things. I was very sleepy but I enjoyed.

Time capsule


On January 8, I went to an elementary school to dig up a time capsule. I went there at 9:00. It was very cold because we buried it in the shade. When I graduated the elementary school, I buried it. I am looking forward to seeing it. When we dig up it, the content keeps clear. I bury a lot of things such as pictures, letters, name card and so on. The composition was written about memories of elementary school. I wrote about a school excursion. Also, I found calligraphy. I wrote a poor hand when I was an elementary school student. I used my brush for the first time in the every New Year. I was very ashamed. I look back on it with nostalgia. And I wrote a letter to me. I had bad handwriting. I wrote my dream in the letter. When I was an elementary school student, I wanted to be a designer. It is different from now. Then I looked at pictures. They are very cute and young. There are about 20 friends and some teachers. But I did not meet a teacher who was in charge of my class. Because she is in foreign country now. I want to meet her some day. Then I come in the class room. There are a lot of desks and chairs. They are very small. I thought I grow up. I was happy because I hadn’t seen them for a long time. I want to go back to an elementary school.
