This morning Kuniko slept in a bit on her birthday, and I made lunches for us today. We made it on time to the train, despite being pretty tired from the weekend. <\/p>\n
At school I was surprised to find that Matsunaga sensei had filled a standing order from Costco, and I had a big case of refried beans, a big block of cheddar cheese, a package of sausages, and sixteen bagels waiting for me at my desk. Score!<\/p>\n
I had more good news, too. All of the students that I had coached to pass their high school entrance interviews had passed. They were really excited, and each and every one of them made a point to come thank me personally. I thought that was a nice touch. One of them even gave me some late Valentine’s chocolates that she made. Score!<\/p>\n
Almost all of my classes nowadays are the last classes for each group of students. I say goodbye and good luck to them after the class, and I’m touched by their reactions. Mostly they don’t want me to go, and to tell the truth I don’t really want to go either. I know I’m going to miss these students a lot.<\/p>\n
At the end of the day I dragged all my loot from Costco home, and then did a serious Wii workout while waiting for Kuniko to get home. We had some leftovers for dinner and some Reese’s sticks for dessert to celebrate her birthday. I was still pretty bummed about last night’s dinner fiasco, but Kuniko is completely over it. I guess that is what is important.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
