I'm mostly just excited for summer vacation (end of this month!). I'm going to India, Italy and the US, in that order. It's kinda crazy but I'm excited about traveling with my dad. My dad is actually a giant Snorlax. He looks and acts like one. You'd think it be hard to travel with a Snorlax (and it is) but he travels waaaaay too much as of late ( Read more... )

I went to immigrations and handed in my application....I hope everything goes okay and that I get my visa before March ends, but at this point it is out of my hands...

When I came back I found my Internet isn't responding at all. I am typing on my phone right now...Hopefully this will get figured out. I'm gonna call someone about it today. This ( Read more... )

I watched a South Park ep this morning with the same title and couldn't help but draw this:

Yesterday the man I tutor mailed me saying that he won't be able to do English class this week. I was a bit happy. I hadn't told him it was my birthday night. If he hadnt gotten the flu I would have been celebrating by eating Gusto pancakes and complaining to him how wrong I thought the book he gave me was. Instead I had miso ramen at Higuma, one ( Read more... )

I just don't know what to do. I was all set to scan in the next 3 pages of Cloverleaf but after scanning 7 times I had no usable images. I have no clue what the problem is with my stupid scanner but I obviously can't post anything until I get scans ): This is bumming me out(＞人＜;)

I also have no clue what I'm trying to accomplish. Well I have some ( Read more... )

So yesterday I had to write replies to students who sent me "emails" ( notes).

One kid wrote:"I found an interesting game! It's called 'final fantasy'."

I wrote back: " I played it. It was fun! I also played 2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,12 and 13."

I looked at my answer and thought," Wow, I wonder how much time I've spent playing video games."

Then I decided to ( Read more... )

Yesterday I went to Saitama city. It's like an hour away but the first time I've been. I went with Mary, ALT from my town, and Malyssa.

Yup AKP Malyssa. She moved down to Kumagaya this year. I thought they had been employed by JET and somehow manuevered a move but actually I was wrong. They are Joytalk-ers and they threatened to both leave Joytalk ( Read more... )

My dad came back from Mumba the other day. It was his first trip to India and he absolutely hated it.

You have to understand my father tho. When he called after his first day there he had already decided he hated it, so India literally had no chance. It's kinda strange to think of my dad as a big child, but sometimes he really is.

He told me that ( Read more... )

Is probably why I have been really been hating this new school year. First there was the J-ALT then my JTE started using a CD to teach alphabet along with a companion book. I am rendered more useless than before D; not only is there another person with my job title but there is now a CD of English language voice actors filling in for my voice. And ( Read more... )

I don't know why but that's how I feel. I'm excited about going to Korea but it seems like there's so much before it ( I even bought too many days worth of groceries bc I thought that I couldn't possibly be leaving so soon)

The so much is only 10 more pages of pencilling to do tho D; it's not THAT bad. The weather has been beautiful, I SHOULD be ( Read more... )
