Day 2 (out of 3 left)

Today at 1800, I made 19/20ths of a year. It's a milestone. ;) (And 25 days til I see my family!!)

T5B: 1) I got to see Jerod when I got home! 2) I was able to reduce the amount of papers in my bag (consolidate information). 3) The English teachers are having a goodbye party for me tomorrow. 4) I don't have to worry about packing a lunch tomorrow! :D 5) I was able to work on a goodbye mini speech for tomorrow (I hope I get to give it - if the bus is not too late). 6) My class was awesome today! They were SO fun!

basal temp: 36.12

Morning:
- got ready for school
- Jerod and I read scriptures together :D
- Jerod was bouncing around full of energy (that made me happy)
1st-4th - organized papers and planned for this evening (French classes - made a go fish game)

Notes: Sheesh, Oikawa-sensei gave me a small heart attack. He comes to my desk and says, "Ann-sensei, I'm sorry to tell you.." I thought I was in trouble for something, "We will be having a lunch for you tomorrow so don't bring your lunch box from home." DAH! LOL An unfortunate phrasing. I guess he was sorry I wouldn't have to cook? More like, "Good news!" In any case, I'm very touched that they're having a lunch for me. Oikawa-sensei asked me if I would be back in April (WHAT THE HECK INTERAC!? They told me they'd inform the school and tomorrow is my last day!) I didn't lie to him (I felt AWFUL that he didn't know yet. Like I had been secretive. :c). In any case, he rounded up the English teachers and so when he came at me with that line... I thought I was toast! In any case, lunch tomorrow with the teachers! :) Whew.

Afternoon:
- 379 slides seemed like not enough, so I upped it to 383 ;) (really I just updated it)
5th - showed my presentation to 1.6 (usually SUPER rowdy and they were excited but they did great! They were pretty funny about it!)
6th - had a Japanese lesson
- school meeting where I found out (we found out) two of the English teachers (among others) are being moved to other schools, and one is retiring :/ DUDE! One of our VPs is becoming a principal at a different school (Sato-san).

Notes: Maybe it's good I'm not staying since we're losing a bunch of really good teachers. It's crazy to me that here they can just move you. No arguments. You are to go. :/ Sheesh.

Evening:
- jetted a snack with Jerod
- we rode our bikes over to Zenrinkan
- I taught three French classes and Jerod learned and participated! :D
- Jerod and I ate some dinner
- we watched the first episode of SNK together aaaannndd time for bed

Notes: Long day, grateful it's over! XOXO, A
