1 Octombrie - Intalnire de Bun-venit

Odata cu inceputul toamnei s-a terminat si vacanta noatra, asa ca in data de 1 octombrie am reluat activitatile Cercului „Prietenii Japoniei”, facand acest lucru printr-o petrecere de bun venit pentru studenti. Am dorit sa salutam si sa ne reintalnim cu vechii participanti la intalnirile noastre, dar si sa facem cunostinta cu persoane noi, in special studenti nou-veniti la Cluj.

In prima parte a programului am depanat amintiri si am povestit cum ne-am petrecut timpul in vara care tocmai a trecut. Am aflat vesti bune si vesti mai putin bune, iar unii dintre noi pareau chiar obositi de atat de mult timp liber – un inceput de an promitator!

Dupa ce am aflat cum a trecut vara pentru fiecare, am avut parte de o surpriza din partea oaspetilor, familia Hamamoto, care s-a aflat intre noi, pentru prima data in Romania si in Europa. 

Familia Hamamoto a pregatit pentru noi o demonstratie de dans, dansand mai multe dansuri traditionale Japoneze. Unul din ele descria munca muncitorilor din minele japoneze. 

Un alt dans, numit dansul nebunilor, a fost pricina multor zambete si rasete din sala. Aceste rasete au devenit si mai energice atunci cand 2 voluntari au fost invatati sa danseze in acest fel amuzant. 

Al treilea dans a fost de fapt o adaptare a jocului de baseball, foarte popular in Japonia, pentru a putea fi jucat in casa. Din nou, doi voluntari au facut obiectul multor zambete si rasete, avand chiar si un castigator la jocul de baseball numit yakyuu, care a primit premiu un pachet de dulciuri Japoneze numite Toppo.

In final, fiind ziua de nastere a dlui. Radu Nedisan, acestuia i s-a pregatit o surpriza, un tort si un cadou adus din Japonia. Am cantat „La multi ani” si ne-am bucurat impreuna in momentele care au urmat, in timpul obisnuit de discutii. 

Am primit, cu ocazia intoarcerii din Japonia a gazdelor, dulciuri si snacks-uri japoneze, o mica parte din Japonia ce a putut fi adusa la noi. Ne-am bucurat mult sa ne revedem, am facut poze si am petrecut un timp deosebit impreuna.

              Once with the beginning of autumn our holiday also ended, therefore on 1^st October we restarted the normal activity of Japan Friends Club. We did this organizing a welcome party for the students. We wanted to greet and meet again with the old participants at our meetings, and also to meet new people, especially newly come students.

              In the first part of the program we recalled memories and shared the experiences that we had this summer. We found out good news and bad news, and some of us even looked tired of so much free time – a promising new start of a year.

              After finding out what summer brought for everyone, we had a surprise from our guests, the Hamamoto family, who were for the first time in Romania and Europe. The Hamamoto family prepared a dancing demonstration, performing a few Japanese traditional dances. One of them was depicting the work of japanese workers in japanese coal mines. Another dance, called the dance of the insane people, provoked loud laughter in the meeting room. The laughter became even louder when two volunteers joined in the crazy dance. The third dance was actually an adaptation of baseball for indoors performance. Again, two volunteers generated laughter in the room, even having a winner of the game called yakyuu, who received a pack of sweets from Japan called Poky.

In the end, because it was the birthday of Mr. Radu Nedisan, the staff prepared a surprise, a cake and a present brought from Japan. We sang „Happy Birthday” and we enjoyed our time together in the usual moment dedicated to conversation. We received, once with the hosts’ return from Japan some sweets and snacks from Japan, a little bit of Japan that could be brought to us. We were very happy to see each others, we took pictures and we had a great time together.
