Back to work

I almost forgot how it feels like to teach a class. I haven’t been to school in a long time and so much has happened since I was last here so I really couldn’t get back into it. I would have like to have another day off just to relax all my muscles and just my body. It was put through a lot of vigorous work-out climbing and walking and running. But the day went pretty smoothly. All my classes worked out fine, but I wasn’t able to hack into the school’s internet system in the language lab. I really wanted to get my computer hooked up to the system so that I would be able to work on the internet while being at school. It would have been extremely convenient to do so, and plus I would have more privacy on my computer than having to use the school’s. I think it would have worked out better for me to be able to do that. But I guess that didn’t work out the way that I wanted it to. Oh wells.

I only had three classes today, so it wasn’t bad or anything. I though that I had more classes when I looked at my schedule before, but I was wrong and looking at the wrong day. So it was nice, I just sat back and just typed in my journal all day, well during my free periods. Today, the VP made Ramen for everyone. It was damn delicious, which made me wonder why I had bought lunch today. I didn’t need to and wished they would tell me these things beforehand, but anyways, it was the same kind as we ate at Hakone.

I was working on a new slide show presentation to help one of my students on Saturday. I think that it will be very good and impressive for her. I think that she will improve her English by a lot and hope that she continues to grow afterwards. I’m just working on building the discipline and it’s up to her to do the rest of the work. I’m really excited that I will be able to do something like this and get a chance to actually use it. I think that I might even eat my lunch for dinner today that way I could save some money and be able to do more work while I have the time and aren’t too distracted.

I also got the date of when I will be going to Okinawa. If you are planning to go or just happen to be there, we might be able to hang out. But I’m not sure since it will be work for me. I’m going on July 18-20. It’s a short trip, but I think it will be very enjoyable. Even though it will be hot as hell, I’m sure it will be fun. I’m really looking forward to it.
