Do you know Star Festival?
We call it Tanabata and the meaning is...let's google it!
According to Wikipedia,

it celebrates the meeting of Orihime (Vega) and Hikoboshi (Altair).
The Milky Way, a river made from stars that crosses the sky,
separates these lovers, and they are allowed to meet only once a year
on the seventh day of the seventh lunar month of the lunisolar calendar.
Since the stars come out at night, the celebration is held at night.

People generally celebrate this day by writing wishes on tanzaku, small pieces of paper,
and hanging them on bamboo, sometimes with other decorations.

Let's take a look at what our staff wrote on them;)

It's easy to guess who wrote it

Yes, you are correct!
