I found that the next day of the mock TOEIC test when we review our incorrect answers is very boring at my school.
Too bad! I was so disappointed about the way of my teacher's teaching and organizing class.
He cannot explain the meaning of words! I almost said that we could review those without you!
After such a meaningless class, I went back home to eat lunch. Emily skipped our class again.
We are taking the same class in the same school now. But I realized why she had been skipping her class so often.
I can understand her now. Just one thing I can say is that Japanese think much more of following their obligation than Korean does.

After dinner when I was studying in my bed, Jodi called me to come upstairs.
It was a really bad news about my acquaintance who is staying here with her daughter.
We started the Canadian life with our children about the same time.
We had the same situation that she also came here left her husband in Japan,
and that he was also supporting them financially and mentally. But according to Jodi, she is now living with her new boyfriend,
who is a Korean sneaky looking guy, with her daughter. And the poor child, who has just turned only 9 years old last month,
is going to her school by bus and only by herself, which is against the law actually. She is hanging her name plate on her neck
and the house key on her wrist, which is called here as "a latchkey child". We, Jodi and I and Dave, were so disgusted about her situation
and worried about her child who is sacrificing her life in Canada for her irresponsible mother!
I was completely stunned by this news and I could not sleep easily. She should be sent back to her husband with her daughter!
