EEEEEEEEEEEEeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

So far today we've had 3 crying children and 5 temper tantrums.... tops! At the other end of the happy spectrum, I had an e-mail from the BOE asking us all to confirm whether we will be re-contracting for 2007-8 or not. I gleefully replied that I would NOT be re-contracting and will be skipping out of Japan as soon as possible. Well, I didn't add that last bit since I might need them to be a reference for me and that might piss them off. Although, how can they be a reference for me when they don't speak English? Hmm, this is a concern. I suppose I really should be a tad more concerned that in 2 and a half months I will be unemployed... but I can't. It just seems like the best thing ever currently. I guess being unemployed with no savings and no prospect of finding other work would be tough, but such isn't the case here.

There's a teacher running a PE class just outside the staffrom window and he is WAY too in love with his electronic whistle. Surely there can be no need for so much shrieking? Haha! One of the teachers sitting next to me just went to the window and used the megaphone to tell them to shut the hell up! Fantastic.
