My best friends in Japan

I am going to talk about my best friends in Japan.
They are my best friends, also they are like my family!

When I was a high school student, I was in a wind orchestra club for 3 years.
They are my members. At first, I didn’t like them because some friends are very active, some friends are very quite. I cannot accept them as my friends.
My club had 1-3events every month, so I had practice every day all day.
I don’t remember when they have become my best friends, but I think that we overcame a lot of problem which were very hard and tough. I shared happy, sad, angry and hard time with them. That’s why we have a strong bond of friendship now.


One year one time, there are two kinds of wind orchestra (A or B style) contest in summer. A style contest is for big wind orchestra clubs. They need to play 2 songs with 36-50players. B style contest is for small wind orchestra clubs. They need to play 1 song with 1-35players. Usually, they are begun on the end of July. My wind orchestra club participate B style contest because my members were just 39playes. On the end of July, we have the contest each prefecture. Each the contests decide which clubs can play the music well. Then, just 2-3 clubs can win and forward next contest which is the prefecture contest. After prefecture contest, there are South or East of Japan contests. Finally, there is the Japan of wind orchestra contest. All the clubs want to go the Japan of wind orchestra contest, but it is extremely difficult because about 1,626 clubs participate the contest. When I was third year student, I forwarded the east of Japan contest with my members, moreover we were decided the best wind orchestra club in the prefecture contest. We could not forward the Japan of wind orchestra club, but it was the happiest memory with my friends in life.

Some of my best friends have already decided their job. Some of my best friends are still university student like me. We are still very close. Before I have come to Canada, they gave me a surprise party and many presents!!! I cried a lot.
They are looking forward to seeing me on April, and we will go to buffet restaurant because we love eating. I am so happy to see them again!!
I think that to meet really important friend in our life is not easy thing.
I am so happy to meet them.
They are best and important friend forever.
