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.

 Just one class to teach-Basic English. The audience was not too big. Their participation was not good enough. Read a library book.


Thursday, June 29, 2019 Cloudy, occasionally rainy.

 Finished reading a library book and returned it on the way to work. At work, no meetings to attend. Just did some printing and got ready for tomorrow's class. On the way home made a stopover and did a little shopping.


Wednesday, June 28, 2017 Rainy and then cloudy.

 At work although I had just one period to take care of and just less than 20 reports to correct, a student whose teacher was missing came over. I helped her with her report for such a long time. Also a homeroom student came and asked me to do something for him. It took me a lot of time to do these things.

 Today was such an eventful day. I took a shower and made a phone call to my dentist's office. I made an appointment .Then when I was about to leave for the hospital for neck traction, I found that there was something wrong with my bicycle. The problem was with the valve rubber of the front tire, so I hurried to the nearby supermarket to buy bike valve rubber. I fixed it and off to the hospital. Then hurried to the dentist's office. Aftehr that, I went to the local employment office to have a certain certificate reissued. On the way home, I bought a new pair of shoes at the usual store.


Monday, June 26, 2017 Mostly cloudy.

 At work just one class to teach in the second period. This class is not too active but a bit passive. Maybe they lack conficence in English. I cannot be too pushy. Corrected over 20 reports. During the break, got some exercise in the adjeacent park. Finished reading one library book.


Sunday, June 25, 2017 Rainy

 At home all day. Last night (today) watched a couple of Korean dramas until well past midnight. So, waked up very late this morning. Viewd quite a few video recordings.

 Called the so-called Hello Work in my district to ask a question. At work two meetings to attend. Saw a Korean drama for a couple of hours at night. The title is Mad Dogs.

 Looks like I have lost my certificate of employment insurance. I need to have it reissued. Tomorrow I will ask about it at the office though I am afraid they are not very helpful. Then I will contact the so-called Hello Work in my area.

 I thought it was going to be a dry rainy season, but much rain is expected this week. Farmers need that. Tomorrow is a workday.

 Although I had no classes to teach at work, I kept quite busy helping a couple of students with their assignments. I also spent some time reading a library book which is so hard to understand-not my area but something scientific.


Sunday, June 18, 2017 Cloudy

 Received some presents from my second son and his wife for Father's Day. So nice of them. Did the early morning slow jog, some reading, some shopping, some video viewing and so son.

 Our first-born son came back to pack some of his stuff and send it to his place in Chiba Prefecture. I helped him with the sfuff, taking it to the nearest convenience store on a cart.

 At work I was kind of scatterbrained. I had three classes to take care of. Quite hectic. That might be why. I have made the Basic English exam for the first term although I am not in charge of making that.


Thursday, June 15, 2017 Fair

 Lawmakers are rich and on the side of the rich, so they make laws that are good for the rich. That is why the gap between the rich and the poor keeps widening.


Wdnesday, June 14, 2017 Fair

 Today I recieved a note, notifying me about a reduction in my pension. Not only in the Edo era but in the Heisei era, they neither let us live nor die. That was totally unilateral.


Tuesday, June 13, 2017 Fair

 I coudl not eat lunch in order to prepare for my urine and blood test late in the afternoon. At the clinic I had a bit of a sharp prick when the nurse took a blood sample. Oh, I hate these medical tests although I give my students tests in English at school.


Monday, June 12 Sunny but a bit chiily at night.

 Yesterday viewed lots of video recordings. Until midnight I worked on the Super Crossword. Today no classes to teach at work. Just worked in my own way. However, there was some extra work to do which I never expected to do.

 Could not go slow jogging this morning. I woke up later than usual. Maybe fatigue has piled up.

 Have to finish reading a library book. It is due tomorrow. Today was an off day, and tomorrow is a workday.


Monday, June 5, 2017 Fair

 At work taught Communication Eng;osh Uin the second period. As usual, I just faced a group of students who were reluctant to participate. Last year I kind of enjoyed teaching this subject to those nighttime students. Daytime students are different.


Sunday, June 4, 2017 Fair

 In the morning did some weeding in the backyard after cleaning the balcony. Of course, I did my slow jog a lot earlier in the morning. At the usual super market did quite a lot of shopping after visiting the usual au shop. I have to read a lot today. Aslo watch some video recordings. The day before yesterday NHK's 鎌倉代書屋物語 ended. I liked the atmosphere of the story.

 Been to the usual dentist. Received a LINE message from our first-born son. He is sending me a present for Father's Day.

 The temperature dropped at night, so it was rather chilly on the way home. Taught Introdutory English. The classroom was full, but participation was not sufficient. At any rate, I will stress the importance of reading aloud.


Thursday, June 2017 Cloudy

 At work a psychiatrist gave us a talk this afternoon. On the way home, did some shopping, making a stopover. Also bought something for supper after dropping in at the library.
