Juelz Santana

Short post today. I am in the final legz of GRE preparation and I dont got a lot of (for my Japanese students -- "a-lodda") time to waste.

Its Tuesday 2.20 am. Sunday after work I went to the bar with my English boss D. The occasion was that our branch boss K was leaving. Me and D talked for an hour or so about the typical high felutant topics we both enjoy. Then came the Canadian A. Following her were 2 Japanese staff named Y and M. Then Australian P came. It was gts. Once Y and M arrived, we -- as in I -- had alodda fun trying to speak Japanese. All people E to Y at this point were roughly the same age, 21 - 23, so that was kool too. I am the youngest by 2 months. Hmm... story of my life. Then our boss K arrived. She stayed for a while. Everyone was lettin it back a little. I was jokin around with D, but he is a funny guy so u can joke even at work. But I was also joking with K which was very unusual. Usually she puts The Fear into me. I guess alcohol really is, as I have read, the release button on the pressure valve, and drinking allows you to transgress usual power boundaries to a degree.

And also, it was the first time I really got to talk to the staff. The only people who didnt come were 2 older teachers, and 1 Japanese staff. Small branch. Then A left followed by K, and then D. Me (E), P, and the J's Y and M left at 0 AM in time for the last train home.

I got a good amount of sleep, (7 hours), but the previous night I only got ~3. This is because I woke up to watch the rugby world cup finals cuz my roomate (almost typed in his real name there, prob not gonna do that, and think im gonna drop the letter thing now,) reeaally wanted my to.

So I was hecka tired at work on Monday (sort of today.) I was practically falling asleep in one 1-1 lesson, but the guy was weird and staring at his book so he didnt notice. Last night my boss D jokingly said I could ask the students out as long as he wasnt up there in the stall (classroom = stall) next to mine. This evening during my break I was walking down some small side street when someone grabbed my arm startling me. I turned around, and it was a cute college student that I teach. We chat in English for a couple minutes. I ask her if she would like to get a cup of coffee sometime and she says "i dont know..." (twice) which in Japanese means "no." Oh well, can't blame a guy for trying. It wasnt totally out of the blue tho, I did think she was sending me signals... :-P . Probably teach her Wed.

In other news, that same roomate cooked awesome tempura tonight. And the other roomate has gotten me into a cool game called tower defense. check out towerdefese.net or something.

Study study study gotta do the darn thing! 10 days away. Its the final countdown. And oh yea, the Nova situation is dece grim, but the melodrama is too complex to explain. Who knows wats gonna happen.

All in all, I just wrote more than I originally intended.
