Another busy day today.
While being left alone for a few hours, I got a little bored, and started wandering the corridors at school. Outside the staffrooom, I met the principal (a different school from last weeks railway station principal),
He was a little bored, and had started wandering the corridors at school.
So he invited me into his office for a chat and some green tea. He's a nice old fellow, full of information on the Kamakura shogunate (Japanese history from about 900 years ago.)
The rest of the week promises to be a little busier though. Its Sports Day this Thursday. Unless it rains, then it will be on Friday. Unless it rains then, in which case they cancel the whole event. This will be distressing for the students who have spent their entire summer holidays practising their Umbrella Dance.
No, I dont know what an umbrella dance is.
So, too much rain will mean they cant use their umbrellas.... I suggested to the staff that perhaps they could hold the sports day even if it rained... sure, theyd get a little wet, but isnt that half the fun?
You could almost hear the bones shattering as every teacher's jawbone crashed to the floor.
