this morning was wonderful. it's great to see the sunshine, get some fresh air, and feel invigorated first thing in the morning. it just sets your day off right. i passed groups of Nakaura shougakko kids walking to school, with their bright yellow caps and hard backpacks. when they saw me they flashed their wide-eyed grins and shouted, "Justine sensei!!! Ohayo gozaimasu!" "Ohayo gozaimasu!" i shouted behind me as i passed them in an instant, grinning because their cute smiles are contagious. the water-filled rice paddies are glittering in the sunshine, and the mountains are so clear and visible it's possible to see the clouds streaming around them. a morning such as this can keep you smiling for a long time.

i forgot on the phone this morn... would you be thinking at all about holland at christmas? if so, then maybe i would hold off... any thoughts?
yeah....i would consider it. of course that was the time i was planning on going to canada for a visit but of course nothing's set in stone. i suppose it's been several years since we've seen the popster and only one since i've seen the rest of you. but then, when would i go home? dunno, we'll sort it out. guess u have to get your ticket soonish if you're going in august. it's just that springtime is such a nice time to visit holland...but yeah, that's still another year away and, well - u know it's probably best to go sooner rather than later.
did you hear about the swimming pool?
i totally agree that sucking a bunch of air into the lungs is a great way to start the day,
i am continually amazed that the rice paddies are still so breathtakingly lovely to me, i cannot devour them enough, such visual yumminess...
Justine, when will you bring your art to me?
i guess you called lastnight, but i did not hear the message, jeff mentiond it...
xox

i will bring my stuff by today after school, daijobu desu ka? i am very happy with the prints...i have 9. if i need to narrow that down u must let me know, or maybe you could suggest which ones to keep.

xoxoxoxoxoxo
this is emjeezy again. swimming pool?
ah, mj. your name in nongo would be:
marijke: MARAIKA
mj: EMUJYAI
swimming pool. yes. he needed to soak himself in sea salts for his skin, and you know those dutch bathrooms don't have tubs so he went and bought an inflatable kiddie pool from the elocoff...and filled it in the living room to soak. actually pretty ingeneous.
j-chan
just call to make sure jeff is home,
i won't be hom until 7, as you know,
then we are going to the gym...
i am not sure but i though (because there were only four places on the online fujima's form) that we were only showing 4 pieces each... you might want to check with Lauren..
cannot wait to see your pics framed!!
xoxoxo
n-chan,
yeah...4. i think emma just said that since we've only got small ones (liz and i) that we could have more...but she's going to let me know!
maybe i'll drop them off after nihongo curassu...when u guys get back from the gym...round 9ish?
