New Year's Eve. We call it omisoka (大みそか).
It was very fine. I have been busy for general cleaning so called osoji (大掃除).
Now I am watching NHK's Kohaku utagassen (紅白歌合戦), the year end music festival on TV.
How was your year 2013?
Mine was interesting.
First three months I had been very busy for Kizuna Bond Project for Indonesian and Filipino Youths.
In April I went to Hawaii to attend Morinda's International Leadership Conference for a week, then went to Thailand & Cambodia, Hong Kong & Macao for three weeks.
In Japan I went to Kyoto in March, Ise in June, Gokayama and Hidatakayama in July, and Izumo in October. For both Ise and Izumo it was a special year of removal of shrines called sengu (遷宮) which occurs every 20 and 60 years respectively.
I started studying journalism in Yokosuka in May but couldn't finish the course because I started studying International Business Administration from August in Yokohama. There were 30 members in the class in August, but now there are 22 left. We have studied Business English, Trading, Logical thinking, Marketing, Finance, and so on. I enjoyed learning new things.
The most impressive experience was to have become a kimono model for several times and participated in the fashion show in December.
I started practicing tea ceremony lessons and yoga lessons again after a long interval. I also participated in some walking tours around here.
