I got up in the morning before alarming because I still spend my days with the Japan standard time which goes one hour faster than time here. I ate my breakfast at 6:30. My breakfast is always leftover of supper in the night before.
I had a conversation class in morning hours. They are new students to me. They were surprised by hearing my age when I introduced myself. There are two classes in a grade in Japanese department. I taught a conversation course for one class yesterday, and for another class today. So, I did the same thing as yesterday. Teaching two classes with the same subject is good for me, because it reduces my workload.
I gave them a quiz; writing of Hiragana and Katakana characters, Selections of particles (postpositions), sentence endings, and Ko-So-A demonstratives. Yesterday I thought the level of first-year students were low, but today I think it is still the beginning of a long journey of second language learning.
After the lunch, I went to the office of Japanese department and talked to the chief. And then dropped by the international exchange office to say hello. I came back my residence at 3:30p.m., took a long sleep till the evening because I was so tired.
