Coming of Age Ceremony

On January 11st there was a Coming of age ceremony in Kofu. I got up at five thirty in the morning. Then I went to the beauty salon to prepare for the ceremony. I had my hear worn up and put on the long-sleeved kimono.

In the hall, boys were wearing the suits and girls were wearing the kimonos. They were very beautiful. I met a lot of friends living in Kofu. I had many pictures taken. During the ceremony a surprising thing happened. The popular group appeared on the stage and sang for us. That was very breathtaking.

After the ceremony there was a alumni meeting of junior high school. Many students and teachers came to the party. I talked to them a lot. Good old memories rushed into my mind. I enjoyed very much.

  1. Who was the "popular group"? SMAP? Was Kimtaku there?
    We don't really have a ceremony like this back in America, but it seems like a lot of fun. I wish that I could go back in time and turn 20 in Japan...
