I was able to download and watch the season finale of Heroes before work today, so by the time I left to walk to the station I had lots of time to ponder the ramifications of the episode. It was pretty good, and I’ve got some theories already about next season. Thursday I’ll download the Lost finale, and then I’ll be free of TV for the summer.
At school today I had kind of a weird schedule because some students were on a field trip with their classmates. I had the youngest students today, and we colored and learned shapes during our lesson. We did a little bit of singing and dancing and played a few games, and then the class was over. I’m starting to get a handle on what the kids require, and it has become easier to plan a lesson in there.
My next class was away on a field trip, and then the third class just had two students. I also had a junior high school class in the evening, so it was a full day with a couple of big gaps.
On the way home I was walking out of the train station in Okubo and I passed a guy with a giant telescope set up offering free looks at the moon. Usually around the station there are people trying to get donations and/or make money. For a second I was tempted to take a look, but the cynic in me thought that might be a great chance for him to do something while my attention was distracted. On hindsight, setting up a giant telescope is probably not a good thing to do if you need to get away quickly, so maybe not. Next time if I see him I’ll stop and check it out…
Kuniko had gotten home early today. Her schedule had allowed her to leave in the early afternoon. She had done lots of cooking and when I got home I was able to enjoy a shabushabu salad, some spicy rice, and some manju and cookies for dessert. I ate big.
