So this weekend I went to Nagoya. It was my first visit to Nagoya and also my first time flying from Hanamaki Airport. With all the new roads, I arrived in Hanamaki in an hour and a half. The only time I had been to Hanamaki before was by train, and it took me about 3 hours then, so it was very quick. Google had told me as much, but me being as I ( Read more... )

For the first year classes we did another speaking test, though one class got more practice time than the other (which clearly showed in the result). The students all tried really hard though ( Read more... )

It’s been a while, though not that long this time. Continuing where I left off last time, on Wednesday we had our City Hall volleyball tournament. We, the board of education, managed to get to the finals, but lost there. This resulted in us winning 9000 yen, so we went out for dinner afterwards~ It’s really interesting how different volleyball is ( Read more... )

Today I went to an elementary school. They had forgotten to send me the schedule, so that resulted in me not bringing the right flashcards… Thankfully it was numbers and it was easy to write down on the blackboard ( Read more... )

I’m trying to get back into regular blogging even though I’m still neglecting everything else on this site. Today I went to one of my junior high schools and had a lot of fun. The weather was also finally a bit better, about 28 degrees and with a nice breeze, so that was a nice change after our rainy weekend ( Read more... )
