Graduation
Today was the high school graduation ceremony. Many of the mothers dressed in kimono, like my student's mother pictured above. One of my students described the ceremony as "grave." I think that's an accurate expression. It definitely wasn't the celebration that American graduation ceremonies are. And it was very formal-- lots and lots of bowing. After the ceremony the students signed each others yearbooks, cried together, and took pictures. I and my coworkers gave our congratulations to our English students and took some pictures as well.
