So week two. We have Mondays off. Another Aussie comes in to teach the students English. It was so good to hear another Aussie accent. All I hear every day is American English and Japanese English; Monday I did my prep for the whole week. Basic but it will get me by. In a way it seems weird to have a day off because in Oz, between work, Student Life, University, church related activities, I have my days filled. I was all done by early afternoon and had no idea what to do with myself. We did have gym class later in the afternoon. It was so fun. We played ultimate Frisbee and volleyball. I tripped over one of my students in Frisbee and landed on my knees then in volleyball I went for the ball and landed on my knees again. I have bruises now but it was worth the current discomfort.
Monday night was interesting. My roommate decided to change the sheets on her bed and had a great time getting them back on. Check www.nicolesjourneytojapan.blogspot.com for more detail on that experience and other mischief we got up to after that event. Fun time that was. All I got to say it I’m sure a male invented the sheets here in Japan because they are so difficult.
Tuesday’s classes went well. For bible study the TV made a funny noise so I unplugged it, Nicole went to see if there was another TV we cold use but got told that it sometimes happens and to try the TV again. I went to plug the TV back in to find a dead bug on the power socket. Seems as though the bug got too close and went to heaven.
The students as of this week have to write a journal to their family time teacher. I have received one so far and need to write back. The girl drew a big heart than wrote inside of it for me. Nearly was a tear jerking moment. While I am awake and thinking about the journal I will write back to my student. Ciao for now.
