And it's only Monday!

I’ve just had my last lesson with one of my favourite students. He is the only one in his class (at a school of 8), and we spent most lessons just chatting in English. Today he is really sick, but he came in anyway to say goodbye. It was so bad! I was almost in tears. He made me a card and gave me a pile of information on Japanese bands – we spent hours talking about music – and I gave him some CD’s. This has got to be the worst part of the job. I am not looking forward to the rest of this week – I have to say goodbye to about 300 kids. And I have graduation ceremonies on Friday and Saturday, and the after parties with the parents.
がんばって ね?

  3. Hiya. My most fluent Italian revolved around ordering gelato. I have comments turned off on the blog. I've only just gotten round to getting those photos up. Been too busy with winding up old job and starting new job. We've got lots of footage (incl Paulo) that I'll put up on googlevideo or youtube. I still need to do all the photos from the Commonwealth Champs in Belfast the week before the Worlds.
