The day 7th Feb is Chinese lunar new year, as well as our International Communication Festival day. The academy rented a Chinese restaurant for us to make dumplings. It is an ordinary matter to make dumplings for Chinese students, but for many foreign students it is the first and totally new experience. The students are divided into different groups. The Chinese students taught the foreign students to make dumplings patiently. And the foreign students ask for instruction from Chinese students as well. All the students talked in Japanese that learnt in classes. It is the dumplings that make them to be new friends, therefore the target of this festival achieved.
        All the students make dumplings by themselves in talking and laughing. The academy also prepared some Chinese dishes for the students. The students tasted the dumplings while eating delicious Chinese dishes, which reflected great atmosphere of Chinese lunar new year.
