Typing 2nd -11 "Circle/club"

I don’t belong to any circle at university. But I belonged to tea ceremony club in high school. We gathered and practiced tea ceremony once a week at a tea house. Tea ceremony is Japanese traditional culture. We learned it from an expert of tea ceremony. In the practice, we fold legs under ourselves and close eyes at the first. We meditate and compose. And we start to practice. We divide mates into hosts and guests. And the hosts make tea for guest by turns. Guests drink the tea and eat Japanese-style confectionary. Hosts and guests have strict processes and manners. I think tea ceremony is difficult. Somehow, I calm down and feel comfortable when I practice tea ceremony. I want to take part in tea ceremony someday.
