It was great fun! I was at the beer room, so I shouted all the time (the room was very loud and crowded). My nail was cracked when I pulle up the can tab. But I did not get fatigue amd enjoyed meeting many volunteers and guests.Thank you for give me this nice opportunity. Tak's comment, "as in the volunteered standpoint, I could see many thing. I want to use this perspective in my future volunteer works" is sympathetic to me and other people, I think. ( By K. F.)  |
