I'm alive! Thought everyone would like to know.

Just had a little bit of a bug, that's all. I'm better now, I think. If my immune system hasn't gone to pot yet. Well, I still feel a little tired, but that'll pass.

So what's this about a festival I've been hearing?

It's a traditional Japanese spring festival also known as the Cherry Blossom festival. It's quite fun, filled with games and celebration.

[afraidof_shadow]

Huh. So it's pretty much a festival about spring? That's one of the more... interesting things I've heard for a celebration.

[digital_fighter]

Yeah. We have lots of different festivals in Japan. It should be fun. You should check it out.

By the way, thanks for helping me out the other day.

ooc:are we still doin that thread???

[afraidof_shadow]

I think I probably will.

No problem.

((I thought it was your post? xD Or did I just not get the notif?))

[digital_fighter]

I'm gonna be there on saturday with a group of kids (at least they all sound like kids). Maybe I'll see ya then.

nope, did my post at least a week ago... must've missed the notif :/

[afraidof_shadow]

Maybe so! It all depends on how things go with me.

((You know. I really hate LJ's notif system and I really hate my Yahoo.))

[silverhairryou]

Yes, one of many festivals. It's a very traditional festival dating back centuries.

[afraidof_shadow]

Ahh. We didn't really have festivals like that back home! Bit of a history lesson too, huh?

[silverhairryou]

Absolutely. The festivals remind us of our past. It's like a taste of history. Sakura Matsuri happens to be one of my favorite festivals.

[afraidof_shadow]

Just out of curiosity... are you going with anyone?

[silverhairryou]

A few of my friends from back home, but you're welcome to come along.

[afraidof_shadow]

A-ah... you wouldn't mind? I'd like to meet people who aren't just those from where I come from, you know?

[silverhairryou]

You're definitely welcome come along. We're all planning on meeting up to play Duel Monsters.

[afraidof_shadow]

Duel Monsters?

[silverhairryou]

Yes, a very popular game in Tokyo but doesn't seem to be truly known around here. My friends and I do enjoy the game quite a bit.

[afraidof_shadow]

What kind of a game is it?
