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.

 At work I had two classes to take care of. One was Communication English U, and the other the so-called Inclusive Learning Hour. Daytime students are less willing to participate, by and large, but I will just do what I should do.

 Day 1 of this school year. I had two periods to take care of. One was C English U, and the other HR. This year's homeroom class is the most languid so far. As soon as I gave them all the necessary stuff and info, I dismiesed the class. Then some teacher did not like it and began to make me the scapegoat. This trend is so conspicuous among young teachers-excessive peer pressure.
