Last October 12 to 13, Akita International University celebrated its annual festival with the theme, Mixed Candies. The theme is said to represent the mixed cultural characteristics of the students in AIU. There were lots of activities set during the two-day festival. My favorite was the international food stall. The entire day was really a food fest.
Some classrooms also had international exhibits. Here are the exhibits from U.S.A., France and surprise surprise the Philippines! I do not have any idea who prepared the Philippine exhibit, but I think they did a great job. Kakahiya Jam and I were not able to help out in our own country's booth.
During the second day of the festival, more activities were lined up such as the Speech Contest, Karaoke Contest, Eating Contest, Air Performance Contest, Yukata Contest and Rice-Making Contest.
Some Japanese students organized a mini-fashion show to the delight of the audience, especially the guys! Haha! We also enjoyed the lively fire dance, Kanto presentation and fireworks display. Lastly, we capped the night with a mini-concert by shirtless Japanese students.
