Summer Time

Before I write anything here, I tell you "we are in break!!"


Today we realised that our time is one hour behind. The summer time has begun on Sunday, and three days have passed without noticing the change. Sunday, Monday and Tuesday...

Remember?

We are in break.
We don't need to move according to the clock.



We don't see TV, and we don't listen to radio either. We are totally disconnected from the world outside of our life.



Realising the delay was surprising and shocking.
We have been totally one hour late from the world for three days... and didn't notice it at all until this evening.


It's all right.
Let me say this again.
We are in the middle of the break!


Yeah!

Two more days

I've got two more days to go till the end of this term!

Then....,Easter BREAK!!


When I went to a classroom to teach this morning, one pupil was away. And her friend said,"She is in California now!"

She misses lessons so often, and often she leaves the school earlier than breaking up. It is because she goes on a trip for vacation!!

Unbelievable!



But generally speaking, English misses their school or work so easily. They are absent because it is snowing just a little bit. They are absent because it is cold....

Also the school has to be closed when the classroom heaters are broken, according to the regulation. It is not that cold in England recently because of the global warming. If they are cold, make them run, run, run!! They will be soon warm! Or they need to put on warmer clothes!! That's how I survived Japanese schools without any heating system...... I remember I couldn't hold a pencil on the first lesson in the morning in the middle of winter, because my hands were too cold to move. I guess we can not do this anymore, because parents start complaining about it...... What a shame.

When the heaters are on in the classroom, some of the teenage pupils are in no sleeve shirts, showing off their chubby tammy.

We are not heating the building to be half naked in winter!!!!

Oh, this journal seems to have got lost.....

Anyway what I wanted to say in this journal is....

"happy Easter break!!!!!!"






I really need a break now.

break for mother

Today I went to the town centre by myself just for strolling around the town. I just wanted to walk around by myself, look for some books for no purpose, view the window displays etc... Since I have got two little children, I can rarely have a chance to go out by myself. So I sometimes get frustrated for having no freedom to have a little bit of time for myself.

Yes, mother needs some break as well.

So today, I asked my husband to look after our sons, and went off. .... Just for a few hours freedom!

Although there are nothing special in the town, it is great to pop in the shops that attract me. I didn't have to neither hold my son's hand nor be worried about them starting messing the shop around.


So it was a little refreshment for my soul.
