Today i went to a celebration of joy at the Buddhist Temple of San Diego.
There was ceremonial dancing, food, taiko drums, and a very festive atmosphere. It was primarily Japanese at the temple's festival so most of the somgs were also in Japanese. It was the Obon Festival of, i think Bon Odori... or something to that sounding.
I liked it alot. The place was just ooozing culture. The reason why i went there was for an Anthropology Project with my friends Rodney and Alania.
Tomorrow im going to goto the Hare Krishna Temple for one of their celebrations.
Culture = Good.
And on a side note, the productivity of my bowels has increased by 100%, unfortunately the efficiency has dropped by about 66%...
