+ Believe Your Ears, Rely on Your Eyes!
Due to the COVID-19, these days we enjoy activity on ZOOM.
This time, we tried to use ZOOM without video and did our self-introduction.
After this, turn on the video and think about the difference between no video and video.
We found that it is difficult for newcomers to understand other members' speech but not difficult for Tamakomi members.
This result is interesting and the atmosphere and the usual voice makes us comfortable and enjoy our conversation.
+ Sunday Surprise!
In our graduate school, there is an entrance examination on this Saturday and Sunday.
After the exam is over, we seniors want to reward juniors for their work.
What kind of presents or surprises should we prepare?
-> I got many advices such as singing a song in the lab, present a stationary, cups to drink coffee in the lab.
All things considered, I decided to bring my electronic darts board to my lab by car and enjoy playing darts with my juniors!!!
I prepared a PDF resume today and there is a lot of information about weather in each city.
We prepared weather forecasting by themselves and forecast tomorrow's weather by each person.
Some members focus on the danger of UV and recommend clothes against sunshine.
This information is really useful for me because my skin is sensitive to the strong sunshine;(
+ How to Get Along with Silence?
When you stop talking, you sometimes or often think you are awkward with others.
On the other hand, you do not think so when you talk with your friends.
What is the difference?
We talked about it honestly and got some advices.
One of the members try to explore the trip to find others' Tsubo.
Some topics are suitable for them, so he tried to ask many questions and find some questions which is suitable for them.
Actually I am not good at managing such an awkward situation but many of them think you are too considerable.
I should throw away my complex emotion and perform bravely from now on!:)
* Acknowledgements
I have experienced a lot of Tamakomi activities but I was not confident to accomplish my activity this time.
It is because this is the first activity facilitated by me online.
As you know, online activities are difficult in terms of limited information via video and the difficulty of sharing the same atmosphere.
However, you all make my activity enjoyable and finally I also enjoyed my activity:)
I would like to say thank you for all participated in today's activity even in the duration of heavy examinations.
I hope we can meet you again or for the first time in the near future...
