Another past 8pm day

I got home late and stayed up late, so I ended up waking up late today. Actually I got up pretty early because I wanted to make sure that things got taken care of for UCLA so I was talking to my sister at 8am. It was a lot harder than I thought it would be. But everything worked out and I didn’t have to file taxes after all. We consulted with a professional who advised me not to. And because it was already covered with my mom’s stuff.

I decided to give myself a haircut before work. At first, it didn’t work out for me and it was off and looked a bit unbalanced. So I re-cut my hair right before I needed to leave to get to work on time. But I was able to and things worked out. I left home just in time to get to school on time.

When I got to school, it was already lunch time. But I didn’t get a lunch and ate then because I had gotten up late, I didn’t get hungry. So I got some afternoon snacks for myself.

Then the first class started 5th period with 10th grade yuri. They only had to give their speeches and then listen to the listening test. They were very lazy it appeared, but some of the best speakers were in this class, so they did better overall. But they were expected to, so I think the scores were about the same as the other classes.

6th period was with 8th grade Fuji. They were working on their favorite souvenir speeches. So we just helped them with that.

Then after school, I decided to play tennis with the tennis team. The other coach was busy, so he asked me to go, but I was busy getting all the paper work finished and copied for tomorrow’s listening test. But I was able to get that done and joined the team outside. I was really tired from sleeping late last night, but decided that it was better for me to join the tennis team. I didn’t do very well and kinda let out my frustration in front of the students which wasn’t a good thing. There were some students there that I hadn’t seen on the team before, so I was a bit shocked. I don’t know if they are new or just never came before.

At the end of practice, I was talking with some students for a little bit, not on the tennis team, and missed out on picking up the balls and their meeting times and stuff like that. But I think it was overall better for the students if I talked to them in English. So I took the time to do that.

I left school after 8pm after I was talking with the teachers about the listening test and realized that I copied the wrong papers. I learned how to use the CDs for the test too. I was also helping with another teacher who was working on a script for Heidi and the English performance. This took a really really long time. I left and ended up Matsuzaya where I bought dinner and a few other things. It was good though.

I came home and watched the world cup. Today’s match wasn’t so interesting, so I was also doing a lot of channel surfing instead of watching.
