...And All for Spite

So....I'm kind of fucked....

I found out today that one of my students during training broke her toe in one of my classes. Of course when it happened the girl told me she was fine and proceeded to walk over to another teacher to talk to them. For the rest of class she seemed fine to me -- and she even walked and went down stairs!

But nope...now I'm kind of fucked because I didn't inform the company (since I thought she had just fallen) and didn't tell the parent either...So, I might get fired pretty soon....joy....

If that happens, I will head over to Sendai and crash with friends until I get back on my feet. Wish me luck...


On a lighter note...I GOT A BIKE! It's a cool bike that I am very proud of ^_^ Pictures to come when the sun comes back up :P

I also opened my bank account today as well and finally cashed in all my travelers' checks.

I even met a nice old woman named "Ohashi-san" She used to be a Japanese Teacher. She said she would be my teacher since my Japanese was good enough for me to insult her by using the wrong form >_<>

You see...there is a certain buffer zone against insulting people when you are learning a language. If they can tell that you are just starting and struggling, they look the other way. But the moment they believe you have a grasp of the language....well....you better brush up on your p's and q's.
