Day 48, April 30 (Tues)


In the morning, a few of us went to observe one of Chris’ elementary school classes. It was a lot of fun (I mean, even for me), and it was nice to be able to see how someone else teaches. But next week people come watch ME teach. OH NO.

Then I had elementary classes, then nada. In the evening I went with Casey and Nathan to a couple shops then to dinner.

Look, Baumkuchen!! Why don’t we have this at supermarkets in Utah?


New words:
uranai (占い) = fortune-telling
tanpin (単品) = individual item (not part of a set)
amanatsu (甘夏) = a variety of pomelo, like an orange or grapefruit (except, not)

You would think was an orange. You would be mistaken.

  2. Baumkuchen is a german word, and nada is a spanish one. Hey are we still in Japan here?
    (Kuchen = cake, baum is tree - i.e. Tannenbaum is Christmas tree)

    I love the 'not' orange. Is it sweet? Glad you got to watch Chris teach, and it was fun. Other people will have fun when they watch you!

    1. OOh. Tree cake. Heheh.

      The not-orange is not very good... but then, I didn't know most people don't eat the membrane-stuff. Now I know. I also think mine aren't quite ripe so I reserve judgement.
