First snow


 On 14th January, we had our first snow of the year. I had the practice for the performance, which we are going to have a show on 21st March.

 First of all, I would like to tell you about the performance. This performance is called “SAIEN 7”. The special adviser of dance club in high school organized this performance. This title is chosen because it is the performance done by OB, OG and active services from dance club in ICU high school. So the word “SAIEN” includes two meanings: 再演 as replay of the performance and 再縁 as re-bond. This SAIEN is held 7th time and this is my first time to be in the piece. Last SAIEN was held when I was 1st grade in high school which we could not take part. I really wanted to join in this piece so I was very delighted when I first heard about having SAIEN 7. The image color of the SAIEN is black and half of the piece is replay of the performance, which we did when we were high school student. We arrange the original piece in to black image. And another half, we make a new piece.

 This time, the theme of the SAIEN 7 is “computer”. The entire piece has somehow linked to computer. I am going to be in 6 pieces including opening and ending. The pieces are net café, bad feeling, net shopping, like? and logging in as a different account. I am making the piece of “logging in as a different account”. It is very difficult to make it. The genre of the dance we are making is not the street dance but the creative dance that is near to modern dance, I think, so each movement has to include some kind of meaning. I shared the dance I made to a girl called Yuri who is going to dance the same piece but I thought I have to remake it.  

 Anyway, on 14th January I had the first practice of SAIEN 7. It was great to see my dance club friend again. After being explained the flow of the performance we did the rehearsal. The purpose of the rehearsal was to understand the order and the atmosphere of the performance. As we went to different university we couldn’t practice well so the piece was really bad. However the special adviser got some idea of the piece and said it was OK so we really have to practice a lot to make it a perfect piece.

 The practice was from 9 o’clock and at that time it was raining. However after we finished practicing and went out, the landscape was white. I was so excited. One of my friend called Kiiru throw a snowball to me and we started to play a snowball battle. I have not played a snowball battle hard for a long time so it was so fun! We also tried to knock each other down on the snow. I tried hard to knock him down but in the result we both got down on the snow. It was so cold. Haha. Every one said we were childish but I did not stop because it was enjoyable. I got very wet. We promised to continue the fight in Inogashira Park in Kichijyoji but we became cold at a stretch so we decided to do it next time when the snow falls again.

 I had a really enjoyable day. Meeting with my dance friend and my best adviser of dance. Also playing a snow fight with my favorite friend, Kiiru, Shion and also my junior of dance club.
