JENESYS 2016 Day Six

Today was a short day, but we still managed to use it to the fullest.

After breakfast, we headed down to Tanno Town Community Center to attend the workshop presentation, where we proposed our action plan for post-trip.

Arins and Shirley, one of the TP students who is also part of the Singapore delegation, presented for Singapore. They thanked the organisation for JENESYS 2016 and laid out our plans to promote ties between Singapore and Japan when we return home.

After the presentation, we had performances of the remaining countries: Vietnam, Thailand, Timor-Leste, Taipei.

Vietnam managed to get everyone on stage to dance with them!

This was the closing of the presentation and we went for lunch at Chouchou de Couleur, Tobu East Mall.

We quickly headed down for Kitami Beauty College after lunch where we learnt about what they teach their students in the school, including hair weaving and washing, kimono wearing and the tea ceremony.

We got to experience wearing the kimono. It was really tight :P
Almost complete!

The students there were very kind and inviting!

Sadly, we had to say goodbye to the school and people.

We headed back to our hotel for dinner. Seeing as the day had ended too early, we decided to kill some time by singing PPAP and having fun in the snow.

A lot of participants from other countries were also at the entrance side of the hotel playing with snow, so we decided to join them as well.

Some of them were even sliding down the slope of the entrance of the hotel!

I myself managed to make friends with the people too.

JENESYS 2016 is almost coming to an end and I am really sad about it, however with the kindness and friendliness of these people, I do not think I will leave this country feeling sad, but instead with the great memories spent here.
