Spring Snow in Sapporo

Image
After my joyous Graduation ceremony , my family and I headed off to Sapporo, Hokkaido. The last time I went to Sapporo was 6 months ago, for the Sapporo International Short Film Festival. I was honoured to receive the Japan Tourism Agency Commissioner Award for my short film, LAST FRAGMENTS OF WINTER . When I arrived at Sapporo, I was a little surprised that the place is still snowing. It's already the end of March, and in Tokyo, the cherry blossoms were already blooming.

I just went through my graduation ceremony yesterday at Waseda University. For some odd reason, I managed to get myself a doctorate. I'm sure my secondary school teachers would have been mortified.
