As the parade is a competition among the schools, unfortunately only one wins and gets an excellent prize that (I imagine) is a

A Helping Hand

As I'm thinking on what blog should I write. It suddenly pops out in my head, the tragedy that hit northern Japan yesterday. A magnitude 8.9 quake hits Sendai at around 2:45 pm.
