I realized that I haven't really posted anything. So, a brief update from an email to my grandma, who I email just about as often as I post here. So, this should count for something, right? :P

Elizabeth!! This email sound EXACTLY like what I sounded like after I arrived last year. Seriously, it's almost identical.
Work is hard. I'm not very good at it, in part because of me and in part because of the way my boss wants things done. Teaching here is really different. It is kind of disappointing, because I loved student teaching with the immigrants in the US. Now I am not sure if I loved the teaching or if I was happy because I was doing something other than the job at unemployment.
This is my first real teaching job...I've done some teaching before, but not full time. I don't particularly like my job, but I can't figure out if it's because I don't like teaching in general, I don't like teaching in Japan, or I just don't like teaching at this company. I just don't know, and it's frustrating, because I can't decide if I should continue teaching or try something else.
I don't really study much, since after I get home (between 9-10:30 PM), I am not really motivated to hit the books (and I'm lazy).*raises hand* Been here a year
