Hey everyone!
It’s been a while since I’ve posted since I’ve been pretty busy, but something big just happened part of which I owe to all you guys so I really want to say thank you.
Today I graduated from high school, and until my first year in HS I was never really involved with anything, but just before starting I took an interest in Japanese music and not long after came here and began learning shamisen.
Thanks to Bachido’s help in developing my musicianship, I’ve been a very active participant in the school’s music scene, performed at a number of events through that club, and shared shamisen with hundreds of other students, their parents, and my teachers including one who I found out went to Waseda University and plays the koto. Through this I’ve become a more outgoing person, and made some amazing friends I’ll have for life.
So, for setting me on the way to enjoy my time in high school, thanks everyone! Looking forward to having more time to practice and be involved here before college, which if all goes well I’ll be in the heart of Tokyo and be able to further my pursuit of wagakki.
Thank you guys - これからよろしくお願いします！
