Angel at bunkasai!
Before I came to Japan, I thought that a Bunkasai would just be lots of playing and messing around.
However, what I didn't realize is that putting on a Bunkasai is incredibly busy and requires a huge amount of preperation. On the first day of bunkasai in the morning it was raining so hard that not many people were able to make it out. The morning was very slow.
The last day of bunkasai however, we were super busy all day. The weather was beautiful and a huge crowd of people came to the festival. We also had a big stage in the middle of the school's courtyard. I saw everyone trying their best to put on a good show for the crowds that had gathered. I think this is one of my best experiences in Japan so far.
