Wishing you all the best of luck
Some days, they'll have me translating/editing documents. Some days, they'll have me making new photo albums for a school visit coming up (I'm currently working on one for Thanksgiving). Some days, I'll be writing for this blog, or writing a monthly LEX report, or shredding papers, or adding things to my calendar, or taking photos of coworkers for a New Years card I'm helping put together, etc., etc., etc. :)
But most everything, I do my desk (picture included). It's a sweet set-up, if I do say so myself, and it's so comfortable that I actually look forward to going to work. :D
And 'tis the season for English interviews. Lately, I've been doing a bunch of interviews all in English for various junior high and high school students to see if they'll be accepted into a yearlong homestay program abroad in America, Australia, Germany, and so on. It's a lot of fun for me to meet these kids (I call them kids, but they're not THAT much younger than me, haha.) And of course, it's really exciting for me to be able to use my English again, won't lie. ;)
What's most amazing to me is how different they all are. I've been very impressed by some of the answers these kids give me when I ask them tricky questions (won't post examples here, sorry). But they all seem to have a drive for studying abroad, and honestly, the older-sister-ness in me wishes they could all be accepted. I can't imagine doing an entire interview in Japanese at such a young age… My 14-year-old self would be so nervous, too!!
And so sorry about the lack of pictures this time around. Been busy at the office this week, but there will be more photos next time, I promise!
P.S. The photo of the royal milk tea I actually bought at Denny’s. Yeah, Denny’s out here is like super-fancy-dinner-cuisine place. Have classic Italian music playing and everything. Not kidding.
