I obviously haven’t blogged in a while but I want to remedy
that by changing my intent overall. First, a couple updates:
The new school year did not hit without changes. My
conversation teacher left, the teachers overall got shuffled about in the
teacher’s room (this worked to my advantage, on a personal note), and over all
my classes are now at the whim of the JTEs because I don’t want to fight with
all three of them and keep straight which classes in each grade are on which
page in their respective textbook. One JTE is two weeks behind the others and
doesn’t do many of the same lessons and worksheets, so I gave up taking point.
As long as the kids get conversation time, though, I don’t care. I still get to
be loud and bossy with the kids for the most part, and that’s the main thing.
8) I mean… Their learning English is the main thing.
Right?
It’s the end of June, so the rainy season is wrapping up and
gearing up for Typhoon season and summer heat. Not looking forward to that, but
meh.
Come August I’ll be going to Okinawa again. Sounds like
suicide with the more intense heat and humidity, but Veronica and I will be
spending the vast majority of our time plowing through Netflix.
But finally, I’m happy to report that after 14 months of
being here, I’ll finally be able to see MUCC live in concert next month :D And
they’ll have another show that I can attend at the end of summer. I’m so
excited!!
That’s all for now!
