8/6 Farewell Party with Middle Schoolers

Remember the middle schoolers who visited Sacramento (whom I talked about)? Well they wanted to hold a going-away party for me because it could be the last they'd see of me.

One of the girls' mom, Asuka, who coordinated the Rainbow Highlands event, also invited everyone to an all-you-can-eat lunch at a spot near Okaido. As always, Asuka and Wakana came to pick me up from my dorm. From there we drove across town near Okaido and parked. When I saw Wakana I said, "Wait, is that the world-famous Waka-chan?" and they laughed with Wakana saying "I guess I'm a celerity now."

At the little spot we met up at, I saw Kanna, Saki, Nanami, Nanae, at least, and I think Keishin was also there. There was all kinds of food, and the picture I attached is just a little bit of an example. We talked about different things, and I asked them questions. Like Nanami is thinking of becoming a police officer, and they were all excited about going into high school. I passed around a memory book, and got more signatures. They really expressed themselves.

Oh, I almost forgot, but when I saw Saki I said "Wait, is that Shikoku's famous idol, Saki-chan?" and she bowed and nodded saying "Yes! Yes it is!" She always played along.

Afterwards they wanted to take me somewhere. So I was lucky enough to go where "boys" aren't allowed: a "Purikura" photo booth. It was on the 2nd floor of this building and signs made it clear "no boys allowed!" They led us up and we went into a photo booth where we proceeded to spend a LOT of time taking photos. I was scared for my life in there. But eventually I was released from custody and they gave me some of the photos. As we were walking back I think I started whistling some song and Ran asked me about it, I literally don't remember at all what it was. But from there we said "see ya later," got in the car, and they brought me home. 

I had to prepare for tomorrow (mentally and physically).
