Today marks day seventeen of my seventeen day holiday. In Japan it is rare for people to have seven days off in a row, let alone seventeen. I thoroughly enjoyed the holidays, and am starting to feel like I’m ready to go back to work. My schedule at KHI is pretty hectic, with almost no downtime between classes, so the break has been good for me to recharge my mojo.
Normally I would be going to work today, but today is a national holiday in Japan, and so I’ll stay home today organizing the house and getting materials ready for classes. Kuniko has to go in to work today because they are trying to hire a new teacher at her school – bummer.
I’ve still got quite a few things left on my holiday to-do list, so I’ll work on those today and hopefully start with a blank slate tomorrow. But for today, one last day of relaxation.
