Kuroki san, Okamura Sensei, Akio, Mike and Reiko, I did quite have a good time at the sushi restaurant last week. Thanks to Senshu daigaku for picking up the bill too. Oh yeah and Kuroki san, the next train that came to Kyodo eki after you dropped me off took me straight to kita matsudo. That was good timing on your part. Thanks.

What else? We have a Photo Presentation in class next week, and the thrid year jr high kids all brought in photos of their lives to take with them to Nebraska. It was interesting to see how the photos went- They mostly all followed the same course- Baby photos, 3-5-7 kimono pictures, then elementary school entry days, sports festivals, trips to Disney Land, and then on up into jr high. The majority were taken with fairly nice point and shoots, but the digital pictures which bore dates 2000 or so looked different. They were greenish, flat and pixely.
There were a lot of photographically great photos, including just about everything in one girl’s mickey mouse album- pictures she had taken with her disposable 15mm wide angle camera. All I can remember is that the camera is called “Wai Wai- something” and if you wanted to mess with a super wide lens, thats the way to do it. After the Nebraksa trip this summer I will go and make color photo copies of my favorite photos of theirs’ and we will do another hallway mounted-on-construction-paper exhibition for our school festival in october.
