Last year due to some unfortunate scheduling I happened to be at one of my elementary schools for their graduation rehearsal and later at one of my junior highs for the actual ceremony.

I love the random English word thrown in. Happy! I hope that means they were happy in my classes and not that they are happy to be done with them. ;-)

I was a little worried about this one but I had this cute girl named Miki who sat next to me and did her best to explain what was going on. During the quiz game she even tried to explain the questions and answers using easy Japanese and hand gestures. It was adorable. But you're right, usuallly they suck even in English!
