Today Emily and I couldn't enter the class because of my delay for 16 minutes.
We student are not allowed to be late for the class more than 15 minutes on the rule of my current school.
I think it is not rather flexible! They should be stricter about the rate of absenteeism than about only 15-minute delay!
Because 15-minute delay often happen to us because of the lazy bus schedule even though students wants to study at school.
Especially I lost my words at my teacher's attitude for me who had never skipped the class since my first day.
Because of my angry for my new school, I spent whole day in the library reviewing tons of material that I had learned
at my previous school! Emily accompanied me to the library but she went back to her class in the afternoon.
I gave her, Emily, a word of advice today to pretend at least that she was going to school every day in front of children.
I had been keeping this irritation for her bottled up, but I was so blowing up that I could not smile to her any more.
It happened yesterday that really made my blood boil. Nalanda suddenly started yelling at her, saying
"You are very lucky because you can skip school as much as you want, you can buy everything you want,
you can sleep over any time you want!" To be honest, we were so surprised to hear her words while playing card game "UNO".
At that time, Jodi was talking on the phone and Dave wasn't there, so only Halina stopped her yelling.
Children know everything! After that I realized that Emily's excessively unrestricted behavior was affecting badly on our children
including Yoichi. I don't mind whatever she does but I want her to take on one responsibility at least in front of children.
I don't mind if she is not serious about her study, but I want her to regulate her life style a little bit more.
She told me that she had not thought about the influences on children and she had been just easy-going.
She told Jodi and Dave at night about this matter and she promised us not to give our children bad ideas.
By the way, today was no meeting at Beavers because of the field trip of last Saturday that I had forgotten.
Oh, well... I was so into the garage sale on that day that I forgot about the real life!
