DG: Well, in high school were you involved in some activities?
NS: Just in "Girl's Club." Also, we used to put on skits at funfest time and put on little dances and things like that. And I did belong to the Girl's Club, but didn't do too much except maybe go to meetings.
DG: And you were involved with the "Y" at that time.
NS: Yes, I was involved with the Y most of the time because Saturdays they had a Japanese girl's group that met every Saturday, and we had meetings and also we had time to go swimming. And so I was -- I went to the Y quite often until college, I guess. I didn't go to the downtown Y, but I was interested in the campus Y.
DG: That was after you went to college.
NS: After I went to college.
DG: Well, in high school, was there any other organizations? Church?
NS: Yes, I was involved with the Japanese Methodist church at that time.
DG: Did it have...
NS: And there was a "Young People's" group and we used to meet at "Blaine Home" and there was Young People's worker, and we used to have parties, and we'd have dances there once in a while.
DG: Because the boys had sports and so...
NS: The girls either went to watch them or something, and they had their own activities. And I always had books to read. [Laughs]
DG: Did you do any writing at that time?
NS: No, I don't remember doing anything I didn't have to do like my schoolwork and writing. I think I took news writing one of the years in, when -- just before graduation.
