The first term is over
12/23/2006
It's over! The last day was really moving. First, my main teacher, Honda-sensei, couldn't hold his tears while making his final speech in class. I kind of understand, because our class was exceptionally great and I will certainly miss this atmosphere too...
Then we attended the ending ceremony. All the students going back home made their speech, and I felt weird seeing all those people I knew leave...
As for my grades, well I'm pretty happy and fully satisfied, because I got first at all tests: written test, listening comprehension, conversation and daily quizzes! Sure, one of us moved to the upper class recently otherwise I'd probably be second, but I'm very happy about the way I improved: I was around the average on the first test, then I just kept improving until I reached the lead.
Yes I'm bragging, but that doesn't mean I'm overall better than my classmates. Several of them have a much better ability to express themselves and know more grammar and vocabulary than I do. It just means that restricted to what we studied in class this semester, and on those particular tests, I did better than the others.
Last thing: you can now email me directly at tartoaujapon@softbank.ne.jp, it'll go straight to my cellphone.
I have to go, I need to find a place to stay in Nagoya tomorrow night!
