Sushi night again

Fridays are long long days. It was tough today and I mean really tough. I thought that I enjoyed my day off and then I would have enough energy to get through today, but it was still tough. I was physically tired and drained from all the work that has gone on this week. I mean having 6 classes and then having to have the ability to have enough energy to get me through the day was the toughest part. I mean the lesson preparation, I feel doesn’t get enough attention that I think that I should put into it. I think that I want to be able to raise the standard and to be able to help the students achieve more. So I try to get enough sleep to get me through the day and to be able to get me through the classes with the students getting a little more than just having a fun class. I want them to learn for crying out loud! Anyways, after class and since I was still sitting at my desk around 7pm, a person that helps the school organize trips for the students came to school. Usually when he comes, they take him to the sushi restaurant that the school always goes to.

Tonight the headmaster invited some teachers to go to the sushi place that we always go to. The meal was nice as usual, since each person’s meal costs $100. We really could just order anything we want to too and the guy would make it for us right away. It’s really some delicious stuff since I really enjoy eating sushi. I was sitting in an awkward position at the restaurant, but I think I was able to manage it pretty well. I mean the Japanese language was still difficult, but I was able to pick up things that I wasn’t able to pick up before. The headmaster came and went and then came back. During the time he was back, I had asked the headmaster to send me to Okinawa for the school summer school trip. He’s going to let me go to Okinawa with the school. YAY!!! I’m super excited since I’ll actually visit all the major cities in Japan after those trips. I mean it really has been a great experience for me working at this school because they sent me to everywhere I haven’t been, but wanted to go to. So I’ve had a really complete trip during my stay. I’ve explored and done pretty much everything, and not only that, I will be able to have such a unique experience as well. I think that so far it’s been great, and even though I’m tired as hell, I still enjoy it. I really can say that I’m living each day to the fullest and getting a lot of work done that I don’t even have time to add to this journal or even work on my website.
