Teacher’s Speech

Today marks the 3rd to last day of school in Japan for me. I had to give the speech to the teachers today, which I think went much better than the student’s speech. It only had to be 2 minutes, so I memorized it which made me a lot less nervous. Once again, after the second line or so, everyone was gasping – even though the intro was stuff that I knew before I came here.

I paused half way through, having to refer to my notes which I was really not wanting to do. After that was finished, I went back to a freezing classroom and sat through one of my last days of school here. 

And just to confirm, like I talked about before, I have secured 20 souvniers – ranging from not so good, to too good to give away. Obviously, I’m not dragging them out at the airport, so it will be the first 20 people to see me once I get home that get them. It is suddenly beginning to dawn on me, that as quickly as I arrived here, I am about to leave. I want to get back, but I don’t want to leave either. Ouch.
