These 3 girls were some of my students in my junior high class. We had a lot of fun together learning, making jokes, and being silly. They had to say goodbye because they are beginning new things in their lives. As much as I will miss them, I am very proud of them and I'm so happy I was able to be their teacher. I'm sure they will continue to do wonderful things in their lives! You go, girls!


  

I went to a festival last weekend. When I arrived, traditional melodies were playing and dancers in yukata moved in time to the music. Two men waved giant flags along with them. Too quickly, the dancers finished. And then Kylo Ren showed up playing an electric guitar and standing above a giant screen displaying Star Wars clips. The loudspeaker blared the Star Wars theme followed by an American rock song and another song I don’t remember. Oddly enough, most of the other spectators seemed seemed unsurprised by the scene. Unfortunately, I didn’t get pictures. The absurdity of the scene stunned me into a state of motionless shock and by the time I thought of my camera, the last song was ending. Then the fireworks started, everyone sat down to watch, and the festival ended just like that. I’m still not sure who decided rock songs played by Kylo Ren were the appropriate intermission between Yosakoi and fireworks, but apparently someone on the festival planning committee thought it was! Needless to say, it was an experience I will never forget!  

Gotta keep the electrolytics up, guys! Just water won't cut it. I found this stuff in the vending machine and it really synced with me. Match is tasty but it's a little too much like soda. Aquarius and the other white one has a weird after-taste. Try this one if you feel the same. I think it's a limited flavor.

What's your drink of choice in these times? Wheat tea is never a bad decision! that's my favorite tea even in the winter.
