Biked to work in 9 minutes, a minute more than it usually takes me. I think it was the rain. I was happy because I was able to wear my new pink puffy raincoat. This is what my work day looked like:
7:50AM Morning meeting. Made a piping hot mocha. Copied and compiled papers for the 3rd year’s upcoming speech contest. 1st period (good kids). 2nd period more copying, compiling, and grading. Remembered the mocha I made and made it iced. 3rd and 4th period had two third year classes (also good kids who laughed at the way I said Jiro). Prepped the school lunches with the secretary, vice principal, and another teacher. Today’s menu was salmon, soup, and rice. Spent the last few periods being upset about something personal and prepping for Friday’s lessons. Cleaned a bit. Attempted to redo my taxes since they were lost in the mail but didn’t have time. Stayed after school to help some students finish their project. Went home around 5:00PM. Ate dinner. Biked to Cainz Home, a nearby super store, and picked up some candy. Biked to the library and taught English Circle with another ALT. It was a smaller group because of the rain, but we had some good discussions. We spent over half the class on one question: “What is the most unforgivable thing someone could do?” Got home a little before 9:00PM. Lay in bed angry about that thing I mentioned.
Previous highlights: Finished Desperate Housewives Season 3, went to a Halloween Party Tuesday and actually cooked for other people (grilled cheese and penne), and went running around town yesterday evening.
Upcoming highlights: C’s birthday, Tokyo trip, Makuhari trip, Funabashi trip, and a friend’s housewarming party this month. ALT and English Circle Christmas Parties and home next month.
Major Disappointments: Pumpkin Kit-Kats are no longer available.
