Japan happenings in school and life in general
Today marks the first anniversary of the death of one of my students.
Shizuku was a bright shining star with a ready smile and an infectious laugh. She was barely 16 years old when she died. I still occasionally look out into my class and expect to see her there. She would have been graduating from high school in about 5 weeks. I’m not sure what else to write, except that I miss her and I know her classmates do, too.
Rest in peace, Shizuku.
It’s still January 1st in California, so I barely made it. I actually started to write this about 3 hours ago, but have been dealing with technical problems. My site hosting company, GoDaddy, was extremely helpful in getting me back up and running. Thanks, Theresa.
Anyway, I finally had my first blog reader acknowledgement. Someone has seen my blog! It’s so exciting! Thanks, Dad!
As we enter 2019 I recognize again that I’m not very good at blogging. I will get better. I have plenty to write about, it’s just difficult to sit down and start typing. At least I’ve started off the new year right.
If anyone else has visited here, please let me know as it will increase my motivation to write more.
I wish you a happy and fruitful 2019!
