Another farewell


This one was sadder than the other two, for a few reasons: 1) I was really fond of this class, perhaps more than any other. They had a good balance of eager kids and laid back ones, of shy kids and outspoken ones. But the best part was that a lot of them would come to the staff room and just chat with me and Aaron and Grace. 2) A lot of students were absent today, so the picture is of us, MINUS 18 students! Almost half the class! Among the absent were the entire "Forever 17" Club (Ayuka, Asako, Yumi, Fuko), which was kind of a bummer. And of course, the ever-non-present Sakura and Asaka. This was an awesome class to teach, but the hardest part was all those Mondays that were off due to national holidays and so on. Stupid Happy Monday System.
