Festival in my unversity!!!

Hello everyone!! This is Alex, EIC Camp leader in 2011 and 2012 from Romenia!

Last month we had Tenkusai Festival (School festival) in our university, APU(Ritsumeikan Asia Pacific University). At this time each circlehas the opportunity to cook is cooking a special food and sells it to the visitors in campus. There were are also many many performances and exiting activities like Ghost House, exhibitions and watching movies too.

But I am sure everybody likes to eat, right? And everybody likes sweets, right?

So this year my circle sold Korean street food called Hotteok. Do you know Hotteok?

It is a small pancake and inside it hashave cinnamon, and peanuts and banana.

We sold 700 pieces of our cake and make the record in the whole festival. I think this is because we all have many friends and they spread the word of ouryour delicious food.




In our circle stall, System Assistant (SA)we have also many Camp Leaders like Stefanie, Ivan, Perm, Lin, Channa, and Kat.

They all helped to make the cake from morning 10:00 until 17:00 and it was very very fun. Also we met Camp Staff and they bought our food too. We were so happy.

If you have time, you should come next year too.
Tenkusai is very very fun and next year we will sell Hotteok again!

☆HALLOWEEN☆

Hello everyone! This is Yafu EIC Camp leader from 2009 to 2012 from Malawi. Did you enjoy Halloween?

Every year I tried to dress up in a different costume for Halloween. Most people like wearing scary costumes of ghosts, witches or zombies. I like to wear funny costumes and go out and meet friends or go to a Halloween party.

This year I went to Beppu in Oita and I met camp leaders and other friends. Many people dressed up in different costumes and I was so amazed. There was a Halloween party and a competition for the best costume. Unfortunately I did not win and I was a little sad. But I was happy because I met my friends.

How was your Halloween? Did you get many candies? What costume did you wear?
