Monday - Rumoi HS Exam Week Day 1

| Rumoi High School 2/14/22 |
It's Monday once again. It's also Valentine's Day. It's perfect as I'm going to go to one of the schools that I love and that is Rumoi High School. For this week, the students will be taking day 1 of their exam. This means that there won't be regular classes for us.

Hence, I used most of my free time to study Kanji, and then in the afternoon after the exams, I trained Mugi-chan and then Komai-sensei for their upcoming Eiken interview.
At home, it's that time of the month again when I need to refill my heater with touyu. Well, that pretty much sums up my day. See you tomorrow!

The faculty had a meeting that I was not part of so there was a time when I was alone in the faculty room.

| Rumoi English Chat Club - Topic: Valentine's Day |
That night, we had our bi-weekly Rumoi English Chat Club. Our topic for the day was about Valentine's Day. When I got home, my wife and I discussed how the "Project Migration" plan was progressing. She said she's already looking at flights to Japan, hotels to stay, and quarantine.

In a way, I'm learning a lot of Kanji already. At this rate, I can probably take N5 at the end of the school year. In the afternoon, Mugi chan and I had our last Eiken Interview Exam training as I would be out of town going to my visit schools starting tomorrow and her Eiken will be on Friday.

How much do you get paid for the Rumoi English Chat Club?
ReplyDeleteIt's pro bono. I do get free drinks when I'm there. Regardless, it's a way for me to meet more locals in Rumoi.
