My 3-sentence Diary
ネット上で日記は、個人的にはthe last thing I want to doでした。しかし、英語を書くことが
学習の一環と言う立場にあるものが、sampleになるのも意味のないことではないだろう、
自分も毎日、英語に接する機会も増えるし、また、このホムペになんらかの足跡を残すことに
もなるかな、などなどlong, sleepless autumn nightに考えて、半ば勢いでcreate。
 3-sentenceとなってますけれども、not necessarilyです。要するにnot longということです。
Starting on October 3, 2003.

She loves little living things.

 Went to the ward office to meet a lawyer to talk about the evil ones. He said they are nuts. I think so, too. I will wait and see. If anything happens, I will do something. The lawyer explained why the school and board of education are so indifferent. It is because this guy no longer belongs to the school, which means they are not responsible whatever may happen. Well, after all it is not their business. I think they are con men. Fact is as strange as fiction.

 After the staff meeting, off to the police with one of the bosses. They listened to us, but as I expected, as yet the case is not serious enough to take up as a crime.

Our educational landscape is getting gloomy. It may be too late. Education is no longer what it used to be.
