愛知県立豊田東高等学校のがくせい,はじめまして!

Today i went for a function as one of the facilitators.It was the UTAR's Cultural Exchange Programme with Japan's Toyota Higashi Senior High School(愛知県立豊田東高等学校).

Untill the night before the function only i knew who was my japanese group member from the email.Hahaha...i was so happy because my four janpanese members were guys(YuPpY~) and my assistant was a guy called Yi Gang from UTAR Setapak campus.

Mark was the Group C Leader.Can you see that four japanese guys' names?Their were my group(GURU-PU/グループ) members(MENBA/メンバ).

Piggy forgot to take her name tag,went back to her house and take while Tracy and me reached PB Block around 7.30am.We were late half an hour...aiks...luckily the briefing before the actual event was not started yet.We faster got our seats and waited for other facilitators to come.

My assistant was still not reach when the briefing finished.That time i was start panic and thinking of:"How can i one person who not really good at japanese to deal with four japanese guys who not strong with their English???Gosh...my assistant,you faster come please!"

Finally he reached before the welcome session for those Japanese students and teachers.

All leaders were waiting at outside to welcome THHS's students and teachers
The bus reached at 9.00am sharp.
many of the nihon no gakusei/がくせい/students walked in to our campus
