Loss of Internet

I found out this morning that my internet doesn’t work. That really put a damper on my day. You know that I love the internet and I’m addicted to it. I don’t even remember my life before the internet and I’m struggling so much without it. I’m not sure what the problem is with it. It seems to have a signal coming, but I think that the password has locked me out of the network. That sucks.

I only have one class today and I know that we weren’t going to do much today too. My only class was second period with 8th grade yuri. They are a really good class, because they are high level, motivated and just good students. We just went straight into practicing for the speeches individually with the teachers. I took two rows and finished first. I got lucky and worked with some of the best speakers. So it was really quick and very easy for me too. Before I knew it though, class had finished.

I stuck around school for a little while. I had a meeting with another teacher during 3rd period, but I got kept up by CP who was telling me that she has few more interviews for a new job at another school. She was supposed to decide if she is going to stay at our school or not last month, well actually in October so that we could start planning for next year. But since she hasn’t and won’t decide till next week; the schedule and curriculum still has not been decided. Nothing has been decided as of right now. So I have started to prepare to take over, just in case. I don’t want to end up falling behind and being like CP in her organization. There is always room for improvement as I always say.

Anyways, after she finished talking with me, she talked with the person that I needed to talk to. That really cut into the time that I needed to get the work finished for next week’s class. We started working on more of the details that we want to cover for the 11th grade class. It turns out that we will only have 5 students. So we needed to simplify things a bit and cut out a lot of the work that I thought I would have had to do. We decided that we will work on the Environment topic. We will cover a few things and they have to research and then prepare for an interview. I have my own ideas of what I want to do, but I want to include the other teacher’s help so that I’m not just doing things on my own. We didn’t really finish all the planning for it, so we decided that we would do it on Saturday after the Speech contest.

I stuck around school much later than I thought that I would. I stayed till around 2pm working on my plan for my spring break. I think that an 11 day trip to Hong Kong, Singapore, and Malaysia would be nice. But I don’t think that I could fit all of those places in one trip. I think it might be too expensive for me and just unfeasible. So I was planning to go home and research how much it would be online. Of course, this was at school when I was doing the planning and didn’t realize that my internet wasn’t working.

I was also working on the blueprints for some construction that will go on at my house in San Diego. I’m actually looking forward to it. I know that when I go back, my house already changed so much from the last time I saw it a year ago. There already was a lot of construction to it and there will be more. We will add another few more bedrooms and a bathroom, kitchen and laundry room. My mother wants to prepare a new room for me when I go back so that my sister wouldn’t have to move her stuff. We will also rent out a few more rooms too. I was drawing the layout of the whole thing and about how it will look like. I really have no idea what my mother is planning, but I was planning to talk to her when I got home, but I couldn’t since I didn’t have internet access. I think that it was probably a good thing that I couldn’t go online.

When I left school, I managed to catch the same train that I took yesterday. It was weird because I didn’t plan to leave at the same time, but I ended up getting on the same train and arriving at home at the same time that I did yesterday. I came to my computer and was looking for a way to fix my internet, but it didn’t work. I think that I will let it pass for a little while. I hope that it will pick up soon.

I played Sim City 3000 and started to build another city from scratch. I think that I started it pretty good. I’m already up to 20,400 sims. My highest was around 50,000 sims in my last city that I built, but that got erased. I worked on it for 5 hours, which I didn’t even realize. Time just flew by fast on that one. I started at around 4pm and didn’t finish till around 9pm. I only thought it was 7pm too. I had dinner quickly after and it was nice that I had leftovers, so I didn’t need to cook anything. I just nuked my food and had dinner. I was watching another interesting show about bargain values. The show today was about one of the announcers going on a trip to the Maldives. After checking out the show, I really want to go there now. I wanted to go before when I was teaching my students about going abroad, but I really really want to go now. But I decided that I think that it would be best to go there on my honeymoon with my wife. That would be the best! It would be nice to go there with a girlfriend, but I think going with my wife would be better, since it is a lot of money, but it is one of the most beautiful places in the world. So I definitely need to check that out.

I actually got some emails today on my cell phone. I haven’t used my cell phone for a little while now. It turns out that one of the people that came with me to Yokohama on my first trip will come to Japan next week. We will meet and I suppose have a dinner or something. It will be nice to see everyone again, well; it might not be with everyone, but at least a few other people. It’s really sort of late right now, about 1am and I’m starting to get tired. I don’t have to get up early tomorrow, so I’m trying to stay up later. Haha, but maybe I should go to sleep.
