There's one every year: in fact it takes place this Saturday and I'm going. I've been there two years in a row now, and each year I feel it's not worth it to go. It's almost two hours away from my home, the food there's ridiculously expensive, it's hot while the sun is still up, and so on.

I'm really just there to "show face", i.e. making a public appearance for the sake of it. It's especially important this year because as the president of my university's Japanese Studies Society, I need to be seen as having an interest in such events. Even if it's an awfully painful waste of a Saturday. ;w;
