For the past two nights I have slept the whole night through with out waking up at unruly hours in the night. Also, today is the first day that I am not tired and trying to run off to bed at three in the afternoon. Yesterday was my first officially day staring to get to know the students I will be teaching, I definitely have a range of students. Old to young and loud to quite. You would think that because I am outgoing and active that that's the kind of class I would enjoy teaching, which I do don't get me wrong, But WOW it's much easier to teach the ones that are really quite and only speak up when they have to answer a question (Maybe that's why my teachers didn't like me!). Overall I will get used to this teaching thing. The kids love it because they can have conversations in Japanese and I have no clue what they are saying, that's why i'm trying to learn fast. I pray that I could just wake up fluent, it would be much easier. Well now that i'm over the Jet Leg, I have to make sure I still get rest to keep up to my brain which is trying to work double time learning a new language and keeping up with the old one.

Won't the kids be surprised when you answer them in their own language!
Have you woke up fluent yet?
That would be great, I have heard that it is a hard language to learn and write! Have you had another Starbucks yet??
