Friday funday

Screw it, I'm taking the night off. Even tho I've only trained twice this week, I need a short break. I'm not sure if I've been fighting a cold or if its all the kerosene I've been breathing in, but I have a sore throat and have decided to chill out this evening. If it is a cold it's prolly best I hide in my apartment anyways. No sense in making it worse. I even treated myself to some 'unlucky fried kittens' for dinner. Say it ten times fast, you'll figure out where I ate. And now I'm in my jammies with a nice little pot of green tea and the electric heater going (cause I don't trust the big one) getting settled for a nice night at home.

Another reason to take the day off is that I start 2 new classes tomorrow morning. The good thing is that I game here to try and help build the school. This is the first break we have had in the area since I got here. The 2 classes were being taught by a guy from Aus, but he had to bolt home for some reason. So they called the guys at Ohtomi and some one told them about me. Guess that's it cause tomorrow I take over. I hope I'm not reporting this too early. They could always decide I'm a jerk or just generally useless and go find someone else. So if I suck I will have to admit it to everyone on this blog in a later post. sigh. The real scary part is that I have to be awake at 7:30 am on Saturdays from now on. And I have to miss Saturday morning training. This english teaching shit is starting to look a lot like work. Ha! listen to me whine. When I'm over whatever this is, I'm really gunna have to hustle with my training.

Here's a couple of pics from Japan for those of you who don't like reading. This is the Dojo.
And this is me and Maruyama san out a few weeks ago.


English classes are back in full swing. I had my first class with the Amaya kids in over a month. It went better than I thought it would . The kids actually buckled down and did some work. Robyn was right about them. They know more english than they let on. Sneaky buggers.

Nuthin much else to report. Back to being lazy for me. TTYL.
