Today was the first day of Aichi Shukutoku’s Student Festival.
It’s why we had no regular classes yesterday (Friday) and why we’ll miss a couple of days next week (for recovery ;-))
One thing is for certain, a lot of students put in a lot of work setting things up and preparing their parts.
I was there with my sons, Bynn and Ahn, and only stayed for a couple of hours, but it was fun.
We had some French fries from the Movie Producers club which Hideki is in so the boys wanted to stop by and see him, and of course, eat 😉
We did eat some other good stuff though, some monster franks on a stick, that looked and smelled great, but since the boys ate all of them, I can only guess as to the actual taste.
We watched some performances by several groups, mainly some hiphop dancing and a rap/singing group. We also saw the university cheerleaders squad perform.
Several of my students are in the group (I think there are about 50 members in two teams actually) so it was great to see them. I was impressed with the job they did. Their part of the show lasted about 25 minutes, non-stop, and they did a great job.
I got a couple of pictures of that, and I’ll post them below.
I also met my friends Professors Dan Molden and Jennifer McGhee. Professor Molden was going Mobile Halloween. Pretty interesting.
He had a bag of candy and anyone who came up to him and said “Trick or Treat” got candy. (for the record, I did say “trick or treat” and I did get some candy, too ;-))
I’ll post a couple of those pictures, too.
Anyway, I’m sorry I can’t get out to the Nagakute Campus for more of the festival, but I just don’t have time ;-( maybe next time.
Here are the pictures:
