So, yesterday was the crappiest day at shougakkou EVER! I was feeling like crap from being sick and not getting enough sleep, so I barely made it through my five classes…..then, after that, instead of having my usual period off before going home, I had to start work on my culture board. Every ALT in Ota has to make a culture board with their shougakkou that shows the culture of their home country/state/whatever. I had my kids draw pictures for me, so I thought it would be easy to put together….um, yeah, not so much. Don’t even ask how, but the damn board took more than TWO HOURS to put together, including one hour of overtime! WTF! Not acceptable, least of all at shougakkou! Let’s just say, never let perfectionist Japanese people in on any artwork-related activities. Actually, any activities at all, really! The only reason I stayed late doing it was because it was due next week and I wouldn’t be back there for two weeks.
After that, I biked straight to Fujimart and allowed myself to buy anything that looked good….a true sign of a bad day. So, Jeff had a good, big-ass dinner, with one a half Chuhi (girly drinks) by himself. Yay, Jeff the alcoholic.
One good thing about the shitty tiring day is that I was so damn tired that I miraculously fell asleep at 9:30. I don’t think that has happened since like 6th grade! 9 1/2 hours of sleep felt AMAZING!!!
I came to work this morning and got a call from my shougakkou advisor lady saying that she had just talked to Mr. Onda (the Ota ALT “supervisor”), and he informed her that since other ALTs have been behind on their culture boards, the fucking deadline has been changed to MARCH. And since I have extra time, I am supposed to add things (writings? I’m confused) to the fucking board! FUCK THAT SHIT! Bah!!!!!!!!
