Thanks a million !

So, one week from right now I will either be in the air over the Pacific, or growing incredibly annoyed at the lateness of my flight.

Five days from right now I will have exactly one more class to teach in this country before departure, and I peg that student as 50% likely to just skip her last class.

Two days from right now I will have just sent the majority of my luggage off to the airport in advance–there’s quite a bit, and the japanese transit system is not designed for people with more than hand luggage.

I can’t wait.

Hi Coriolinus!
I’m very happy to have American friend.
The Class has been a pleasure studying English with you.
I hope that you’ll come back to Japan,someday.
So that we will have more time to enjoy.
Please keep in touch!
I’m looking forward to hearing from you.
Take care!!
Kazu
