November 15, 2001 - Thursday
Today was a pretty good day. I wasn't as busy as I usually am on Thursday, and a
class didn't show up either, so I got a lot of stuff done.
Today was also the day when we had to fill out tax forms. This was the first time
that I got to say that I am married on an official form. Hurray! I hope that means
I get to keep more money! I wish!
I went shopping at lunch to buy some stuff for my classes. I got some paper cups
and some buttons for the child class today. I did use them, but I'm not sure if
the child is learning anything. I also read him a book today. I think he understood
it. It was a cute story anyway.
In one of my classes today I taught about hair styles. That's always a fun lesson.
And, after the class I talked to the student and she's enjoying class. Yay! I'm
glad.
When I cycled home tonight the stars were amazing. I wanted to stop looking at the
road and gaze at the stars instead, but in the interest of my safety, I didn't!
I do often complain about things that Japan doesn't have, but this is one time where
Tsuruoka's night sky beats Edmonton's hands down. That's the one good thing about having
very few street lights I guess. It is pretty dark and scary at times though.
And that's it. I had a lovely supper of fish, spinach with sesame paste, miso soup
and rice. Fumihiko volunteered to do my dishes so I could write my entry for today.
What a sweetie!
And in a bit I'll go to bed, after I take a shower. So, talk to you tomorrow night
I hope! Night-night.
