I'm teaching English to mostly senior high students. I like traveling, and especially I love New York. Among other hobbies of mine are knitting and making knitting yarn with a spindle. I also like playing the piano, and sometimes join the blues sessions. Suddenly I hit upon this idea of keeping a dairy in English. I wish I could continue this blog as long as possible. If you are interested, why don't you come to my page ?

A Charm for Good Luck
At this time every year
I make it a rule to go shopping and get
several pairs of socks for my students
who are going to take entrance exams
to universities.
It's a charm for good luck!
And it's also a kind of pleasure for me myself
to choose this for him, and that for her,
hoping that they will try their best and play a
good hand.
I don't remember exactly why that should be a
pair of socks, but I've been keeping it as
my rule. (^-^)
Actually, that makes a difference and has good
effect, I believe.
Maybe, at the last minute after making every effort,
what they need is self-confidence,
that is, they should autosuggest themselves,
talking to themselves, "I'm OK."
I wish these socks can encourage them to be
confident.
"Yes, I can make it, wearing this pair of socks !"
Ahaha(^o^)

I'm Frozen
It has been snowing since early this morning.
I really want to hibernate !
My crazy second daughter went out to Nabana-no-Sato
to see its winter illumination with her boy friend.
On such a freezing day! Crazy!
I hope they'll be back alive.
Also,
some of my students are taking the Center Exam.
I always wonder why they give entrance exams
here in Japan
during such a cold period of the year.
I would like them to do their best,
waiting for a warm and happy spring.
