遅くなってすいません。。。
hello!!
this is maki, the chief of the world booth:D
actually, ayaka told me to write here about a month ago, but im just writing now... im sorry:(
by the way.... we have only a week left for the infes!!!!!!
i just cant believe that we have been working on this since may or something, and we'll finish it next week!!lol
i joined this comittee because i wanted to do sth else but job-hunting, and because i wanted to make a wonderful memory at KGU(im in my last year).
but there were not always only good things happening, but also hardships or difficulties to make the world booth...we have so many different thought, there were so many misunderstanding or miscommunication btwn us, blah blah blah...lol
but i can remember someone always helped me such as miho, shizuko(they two are the sub-chiefs), ayaka(my boss;her hometown is same as mine, and i really felt easy to talk with her all the time), other japanese members, and of course international members!!
thats why i could keep doing the infes, and i really appreciate everyone:D
because of the infes, i feel like i am learning something invaluable. now i think i am experiencing something very hard but very worth. as i say before, we are gonna finish this soon, but i will do what i do in order to say "we did it!!!" when its over.
i know all members(japanese and international members from all over the world) worked on the worldbooth really hard, so i really hope we're gonna have lots of visiters.
and i also hope everyone enjoy the infes or the worldbooth...:)
なんか、大したことかけてないけど、これでいいのかしら。。。？？？
だんだん書くにつれて、WBへの思いが。。。笑
WBのメンバー中心に書いてるけど、実は、幹部のみんなにはほんまにお世話なってきてます。最後になるけど、ありがとう。あと1週間がんばるね（●‘ｖ’●）

wind orchestra concert!!!!!!
あやかです。Ayaka is writing.
私は奈良で吹奏楽のバンドに入っていて、トロンボーンを担当しています。
I belong to a wind orchestra as a trombone player in Nara.
１０月１８日にコンサートがありました。
This band had a concert on Oct.18th.
奈良でも私の地元、斑鳩（Ikaruga）！！！
In Nara, it was in my hometown, Ikaruga.
私にとって、学生最後の吹奏楽コンサート。
For me, it was the last concert in my school life.
それがhometownで開催できるなん
夢にも思っていませんでした。
I couldn't believe it was in my sweet home!!
練習は大変でした。
Our practice didn't go well.
練習のためにＩＮＦＥＳの会議に出れなかったことも何度か発生してしまって、
それにdeadlineが重なった仕事を代わりにやってもらったり…
本当にメンバーには迷惑をかけました。
Due to practice, I was absent from some meetings of INFES,
and the deadline was on the same day so i depend on other members..
sorry for any inconveniences...
そんな運営メンバーが
当日、学生最後の晴れ舞台を
はるばる枚方から私のふるさとまで来てくれるなんて
これも夢にも思っていませんでした。
I couldn't believe such committee members came to my very last stage in sweet home from far away, Hirakata!!
社会人が集まったバンドなので
練習もなかなか思うように進まず、
クオリティーは高くなかったし、
Since most of members are workers,
we didn't have enough time to practice.
I think the quality of our play on that day was low.
この７０人近いメンバーの全員の顔と名前、知りません。
I don't know about 70 members in this band.
全員と仲良かったらもっといい音楽ができてたかもしれません
If I know them all very well, we could create better music.
そんな環境で
７０人近いメンバーがひとつの音楽を作るために
最大限の努力をする
In such a background,
70 members do our best on the stage to a music.
このステージ上での集中力は
何に代えることもできないね！
I don't know how I describe such a consentration.
リハーサルのときに、
At a rehearsal,
「メンバー同士で、楽器でコミュニケーションをとりなさい。そうしない限り、お客さんに何かを伝えることはできない」
と、トレーナーが言いました。
our trainer said,
"Communicate each other with your instruments or listners can't get anything."
言葉はなくても、何か伝えることってできる！
I can tell something without words.
楽器で分かり合えることもある！
There's something we communicate by instruments!
この言葉の解釈はこれだけじゃなくて
具体的な奏法とかもっと違うところに意味があるのだけれども。
There's some different ways to understand including how to play the music.
しかし何のために音楽やってるのか、思い出させる言葉でした。
by the way, this word made us remember why we play it!
聞きにきてくれた運営の３人、ありがとう！！
それから応援メールくれたMatt、
仕事背負ってくれたえりか、
みんなありがとー！！
Ai, Ume-chan, Miyuki!! thanks for coming!
Matt!! thanks for your e-mail!!
Elica!! thanks for your hard work insted of me!!
何か伝えられてたらうれしいです。
I'm very happy if you feel something .
ＩＮＦＥＳまであと２週間？！？！！？
嘘だと言ってよ！！！
WE HAVE ONLY 2 MORE WEEKS?!?!?!??!?!
SAY "FALSE"!!!!!

Friday, October 23, 2009
This is my first entry into my new INFES 2009 blog. Ayaka asked me to do this blog last week, but I have been very busy so I have not had a chance to get it started. I'm not really sure what I should write here, so I'll just describe some of the things that me and my friends have been doing while here in Japan!
Last night, my friend Melina and I went to a まつり in Kurama. It was a fire festival that our teacher had told us about. We left Kansai Gaidai around 3 o'clock, taking the Keihan Line to Demachiyanagi, and we switched then to the Eizan line. We took that to Kurama. The train from Demachiyanagi to Kurama was absolutely PACKED. We were all crammed in, and the guards had to push the last few people to make them fit. When we got to Kurama, our first mission was to find food because we hadn't eaten and wanted to do so before the festival got started at 6 o'clock. We walked the full length of the town, and found some food stalls making mochi balls (みたらし団子?), frankfurters, takoyaki, curry, and cat tails (ねこしっぽ？), which are like long thin donuts with either anko or custard inside of them. I tried all of these things, and I especially liked the mochi. As we walked back, a man dressed in all white began the precession with a large torch. As he walked, he screamed "さいり、さいりょ”...I think...which we were told was the name of the temple.
After the first man started, every family in the village carried small, medium, or large torches up and down the main street, until they threw them into a large bon-fire at the steps of the temple. Also, lining the streets were fires in metal lanterns. This lasted for about 4 hours. It was very mesmerizing watching them all walk by with huge torches, carried by 3 or 4 people. The children who helped were very cute in their festival clothing. Eventually my friends and I made our way through the throngs of people, and got a great place to stand right next to two huge gold みこし. They carried them through the streets, still chanting, and eventually took them to a small shrine on the other side of town. Afterwards, they threw dried squid onto the stones around the fire, and then gave it out to everyone. It was very delicious. Then, the passed out cups of sake.
My friends and I then walked around the temple at night, which was cool, and eventually pitched a tent and camped for the night. It was cold outside, but we had sleeping bags so we were pretty warm. The next morning, we woke up and saw the temple in the day, and climbed to the top of the mountain to see all of the shrines. It was absolutely gorgeous. We caught the train back home just in time for my friends oral exam, and for me to do terribly on my Japanese reading exam! Oh well, seeing the temple and the festival were worth not studying!
Until next time,
Matt
