Welcome to the life of an ALT (assistant language teacher) in Nagasaki. I started this journal when I visited Japan in 2004 with JFMFTP, then continued it when I returned as a member of the JET Programme in 2006. Enjoy!
I just got some new fish for the summer season. At the summer festivals, children play a game called "kingyosukui" -they try to catch goldfish with a paper scoop! You don't have to work too hard to have fun with my fish, though - just move your cursor over top of their pond & click to drop them some little treats :)
Are you anxious for me to leave or come "home"? (~,*) My contract is up August 6, 2009. I am still waiting to hear more details from my contracting organization.
Yes, I can stay another year - two, in fact. But when it came time to recontract, I just felt that this would be my last year here. Not precisely sure what's next, but I'll keep you posted!
