| Wonderful Performance |
We practiced very hard for 2 months. We practiced dance for two hours once a week at JCC. First, I thought so-ran bushi was too difficult for me. I can't remember all choreography, so we practiced it at my dormitory with my friends. I was very busy, so I was very tired. I had muscular pain every day. At length we can dance impeccable. However the whole group 30 dancers couldn't practice together until after the East Coast Trip. My practice was very rigorous, but it was very wonderful.

| Amazing Dancing |
On Saturday morning, the day of the performance I was buoyant and cheerful. We put on yukata and we had rehearsal. After that we went Down Town by school bus. We danced at the first floor of River Park Square. I was very nervous because this place was very big, and many people saw us. Many teachers, many Japanese friends and my RA came to see our dance. I enjoyed dancing during my performance. Our performance succeeded. I felt the best thing was everyone's applause. I thought I was very lucky because I could have precious experience. I believed the performance was a great hit.
On Sunday, we celebrated our success with a nice party. I had a great time too. Masa organized a party, because our dance succeed both so-ran bushi dance and yosakoi dance. We made many kind of dumpling. Dumpling is a traditional Japanese sweet. I ate many soy sauce dumplings, soybean flour dumplings, laver dumplings and grilled dumplings. These were very delicious. We talked to many people. I had a wonderful time at JCC.
I thought so-ran bushi dances was very memorable for me. Japan Week was a very interesting ceremony, One of my best memories.
