It's been ages since I've written. I thought I should keep these in order, but that is only prolonging my entries. So I'll try and keep up and add the past ones later.
It's the last two days of class. I've been teaching the kids "I will" future tense statements. What will you do over winter holiday is apparently too hard for the third year students. It seems I am teaching at what we're not supposed to call a "low level English school". It means that the students study english for three years and can't tell me what they will do over break.
Likewise, my Japanese sucks. We played "description basket" in Japanese today. You say everyone who has (whatever) on. Then those people switch chairs. I switched when they said "who is wearing a school uniform" and I didn't run when they said description basket. Yep, I get to be the goofy foreign guy everyday!
I'm outta here on Friday! I miss my people back at home. I had brief thoughts of packing up all my (important) stuff. Just in case I don't want to come back. Haha. But that's probably a bad idea. They say foreigners get really depressed in the winter here. There is even a line graph showing the typical moods I can expect to have. It's pretty funny and it lightens my mood just looking at it. I'll scan it if I get a chance.
