My motto is it's always easier to be in the background than in front of the camera!Mom2Amarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00533902850974337396noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32907666.post-90270834448546354032007-02-10T00:10:00.000-05:002007-02-10T00:10:00.000-05:00Hmmm...I am by no means an expert on things Japane...Hmmm...I am by no means an expert on things Japanese. However, I really did enjoy learning how to make origami cranes (http://www.sadako.com/fold/folding.html) has excellent instructions. Hannah also might be interested in learning the history and proper way of wearing kimono, or about the tea ceremony (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japanese_tea_ceremony)as well. Other things I've enjoyed are learning how to play go, a strategy game kind of like pente, and perfecting my chopsticks skills. Of course there's always yosakoi or kendo if there are classes in your area...I'm going to learn how to cook some Japanese food tomorrow night, so maybe I'll do an upcoming post about that. Good luck - it's a really fun country to be interested in!Gretahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11158124319847182908noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32907666.post-78127515534742205542007-02-09T17:11:00.000-05:002007-02-09T17:11:00.000-05:00My college doesn't even have an OCF.

I actually had to explain to our interfaith chaplain what the Orthodox Church *was*. I'm kinda jealous of your OCF...:-)<BR/><BR/>I have a question, and you seem like the right person to ask: my little sister has developed a deep and abiding interest in Japan. We've started checking out books, websites, etc. We even went to the Asian market and tried some new foods (I think bean cakes are her new favorite). Our local library is woefully bereft of good books on or about Japan. Do you have any suggestions?emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05192776503076661119noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32907666.post-6452017848102203702007-02-06T10:52:00.000-05:002007-02-06T10:52:00.000-05:00Dates are July 29-Aug 4.

I don't know how that works for counselors though...<br /><br />President of your school's OCF, huh? Impressive. My college doesn't even have an OCF. I actually think I'm the only Orthodox student there...Junsuihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03139727850174824017noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32907666.post-89910851751347453632007-02-05T19:33:00.000-05:002007-02-05T19:33:00.000-05:00VERY busy busy.
