justine sensei!!!
i'm at one of my favourite primary schools today. there's a boy here who's maybe autistic or anyway he's got some kind of social disorder - pretty much just runs around shouting and likes to hit people sometimes. the first time i taught his class he ran up to the front where i was, reared up and smacked me really hard on the legs. he doesn't do it out of meanness or anger...i think he's just very obsessive about hitting and kicking. anyway, he's grown a great fondness for me for some reason...he's really cute despite his random violence and i sometimes (try to) play with him outside and stuff. so right now i'm in the teacher's room and he's running around, yelling JUSTINE SENSEI! JUSTINE SENSEI! JUSTINE SENSEI! and he just keeps running up to me and yelling it and running away. then he went into the principal's room next door, and the door was shut and i could hear behind the door him yelling JUSTINE SENSEI!!! JUSTINE SENSEII!!! and what does 'mokitai yo' mean?
ok he just came over and bit me on the shoulder. ow.

just wondering what you have planned for tambo's birthday partay? wish i could be there too!
a BUNCH of us are all getting together in the city and heading to a bar, immigrant's cafe. we'll be there for drinks then play it by ear! something tells me we won't be making the last train home....
should be fun!

Love reading your site. Have a good time in Niigata sat/sun?
I think mokitai yo means mo= again, kitai means = want to come...so he wants you to come again. Yay. The little squirt really likes you!

hi brooke,
thanks for the translation!
did you have fun on sat?
Yep, too much fun probly! Isn't it freezing today! Got on 3 layers and still shivering! What's up for Halloween weekend plans? In Joetsu we are having a party on the roof/apartments of people in Sanko (being the most decrepit looking building like a haunted house in the city!)
sounds like a good night!
i think i'm going to give the immigrant's hallowe'en party a miss...
not sure what i'll end up doing!
