lesson 32: a little bit of this and a little bit of that.
yosh.
right, lots of little bits and bobs 2day.
first go ova 2 matty b's blog for a link to a video off why?'s new album (i think) 'elephant eyelash'. its really cool, a good find by the boy wonder.
i aint bin up to much. went to the city ova the wknd to try and do som more crimbo shoppin...and came away with the word 'boo!' and 'bah, humbug!' firmly in place. i leave it at that.
err...
work was busy last week, sortin things out as this week will b the last week of teachin, then a party on monday. i dont really lik talkin about work cos it makes me think about havin to leave. dont really wanna talk about that either.
earlier in the week i was sayin to 1 of my little buggers about how most morninz and eveninz r really cold and the afternoons r still quite warm (the 'killer bees' r still about) and she said in Japanese they call it 'koharubiyori'
which translates as 'small spring day'. nice way to describe a warm afternoon i thought.
me and my pals here r tryin to organise a trip 2 Kyoto when we finish. its the place to go and see 'old Japan' and they still hav Geisha and Maika there, so that will b gud. i think its all mainly for the tourists but all my students seem to think its the place to go, so i think there will b a bit of culture there 2.
a mate sent this pic, what u hav to do is find 50 band names in there, for example bottom left is guns and
roses...u c? good. so i wanna find all 50, but cant, so if any of u clever people r bored and wanna post comments on what bands names r where mayb we can get em all. mayb some of u hav already seen this cos i think its an ad 4 a popular music shop (the big, round, red logo gav it away a bit), but its new to me.
a happy birthday to jane and thanks to my mum 4 sendin me an advent calender! haha. mmm, chocolate...
right, thats all for now...oh, apart from this amazin news; "...according to figures released by David Beckham's Company, Footwork Productions, the England skipper earned £32.98-per-minute last year." just lik bein an ingerlish teacher really.


Comments:

This is from my friend Kiawe via email;

I believe those are CYPRESS trees up on that HILL. And that's a RATT crossing the street. A MOTLEY CRUE is an odd collection of people. There are some POLICE on site, I believe. The giant gorillas could be classified as MONKEES (an actual band), there are some MEN AT WORK and maybe, just maybe an IRON MAIDEN. The Queen is in charge so it's the QUEENSRYCHE. Oh yeah and I see a CROWDED HOUSE and the tv screens in the window are TALKING HEADS.

big thanx to him 4 those lovely suggestions.
