Today is the last day

My actually last working day of the year. Finally. I'm substituting for someone... they aren't an ALT but a teacher in the IES school system (English language school). I have to go to some kindergarten in Kashiwa and do two hours of Christmas activities with kids. I thought kindergarteners at first, but its a group of 4-6 year olds and one of 8-10 year olds. It's like every day at Ni Shou! The first session is starts at 2:55 but I was told to "make plans and discuss them with the Japanese teacher". I'm not exactly sure what kind of plans I can make without any materials so I just read through the print outs they gave me and highlighted the good games. I want to get there by 2:30 at the latest and check out the scene and talk with this lady who I'm working with. The company didn't mention anything about pay... I should fire off an email to Tatsuya and ask. I want to dress festive, but I don't have any festive clothing. Or even a hat. The best I can do is a green sweater and red earrings.

I'll be done at 5 and then I'll need to rush home to change for my bonenkai. Well, it should only take 30 minutes tops to get home and the restaurant is right across from the old Nova so it will only take 15 minutes to walk there from home. I know what I'm going to wear so it will just be a matter of getting dressed and doing my make up. And picking up my gift. Tada~ I hope I get something good this year. I still have the random shit (total regift from the kitchen) I got last year. I don't even know what it is. Some kind of foodstuff. From Miyazaki-ken. With that famous governer's face on the package. Higashikuni-something.

I'm kind of rambling about nothing. I need coffee. I should go grocery shopping tomorrow. That will be my only plan of the day. Tomorrow is the Emperor's birthday so some places will be closed. I plan to stay home and do absolutely nothing. I'm going to sleep in and play Final Fantasy. This dungeon is like 10 floors and I keep dying so it's going to take a long time.
