u can stop now!

supposedly the first day of spring is next week and it was starting to feel like that for a while here, but not yesterday or today. it was freezing cold and snowing again! oye, u can stop snowing now! looking out the window right now, ud think it was january again!

at least it was somewhat warm last weekend which means i didnt freeze in my house where i stayed. it was the first weekend in a long time to spend the whole weekend at my house. i did some cleaning, some walking to the store, some movie watching, and some cooking! i made good stuff too ... i think it would be ok for me to start asking people over for dinner knowing that i can cook some decent stuff ... heee.

i had my last visit to kanagi elementary school on monday and the kids were sooooo cute. i had to give a little farewell speech in the morning, and then all of the kids sang a song and thanked me. then i ceremoniously marched out of the gym between all of the kids. hehe. then throughout the day i received notes and littles origami and had little kids hanging all over me. it was really cute. its a little sad to be losing them. the staff said i could come back at any time to play ... :) ahhh ~ and then i had my last lessons with the 2nd years and the special needs class at kanagi junior high school was today. the kids thanked me for the lessons and then that was it. remember how bad i used to say the 2nd years were? man, now they are cool! but alas, i'm leaving. it's all a part of life, change ... and snow! hee.
