I'm just seeing if this works. It's a video from last weekend's Danjiri Festival, that could have been taken at a better angle.
Edit: It should work if your computer is compliant. It seems to take forever to load up, though, so I apologize if that's the case for you, too.
Apparently shaking your leg up and down while seated is a sign of disrespect in Japan. Likely having already offended my Japanese professors and friends, I need to quickly adopt a new nervous habit. It's the little things that are the hardest to shake off, pun intended.
I'll take suggestions of which English/American slang to teach my Japanese friends. The farthest I've gotten thus far is "What's up?", "Hanging out," "Awesome," and "Bummer." Surely I can do better than that.

Hi Andrea... we could hear your voice on your video. It's like an angry stamped.(Did I spell that right??) Anyway, hope all is well. We hope to hear from you soon and will see you at Christmas!
Love,
Colleen, Aunt Kay, and Uncle Kevin

Love, Mom
