(Kyoto, 15 October 2019)

Hi All,

I would like to share my activity during my internship program today. First activity, Auga Sensei gave me task to type the instructions given by Hisho Sensei at Samurai Kembu class. I could not type it completely. (To be honest, I still haven’t gotten it completely since English is not my native language. I think I need to record Hisho Sensei instructions, listen to it while typing it, then confirm it with Hisho Sensei again).

After first task finished, I practiced with Hisho Sensei putting Samurai costumes on to the customer with Shiokawa Sensei support as a model.

The steps of putting Samurai costumes are tenugui, kimono, obi, hakama, then last kakuobi. After practicing again and again, I could understand how to put the tenugui, kimono, and obi on the customer (though, it is still not perfect =,=”). But for hakama and kakuobi, I almost gave up (I need practice alot).

After practicing to put the Samurai costumes to the customer, as it is written on my schedule, I was supposed to learn Samurai Kembu at 3:30 pm, but it was so hectic! I was so shocked because around 20 customers came at the same time.

During the Samurai Kembu show, I helped tidying the Samurai costumes up. After finished tidying up, I tried making report and blog. But, my working hour was going to end. So, I decided to finish it tomorrow.

See ya!
