Yuki Notes

 I am very happy to be here with all of you at this graduation ceremony. Each member of our class has a unique and wonderful personality. Sometimes only a few student came to school, but I could never stop loving this class. I am proud of every one of you, including those who are not here with us today. Congratulations on your graduation!

I walked around Kyoto Station with my wife and wife, to meet my mother in late October. This is where I had lived in my early 20s to study at Ryukoku University, away from my parents. Certainly, it was the springtime of my life. 

My son is 1 year and ten months old. Although he is growing healthy, he doesn’t speak the words of “mother” and “father” yet. I’m a little worried, and my wife is too. As far as I heard from my mother, I started talking when I was 2 years and two months old. It seems my development was slower than average. Don’t worry, take it easy.

I want to buy an electric guitar, Fender for my 40th birthday. It is the precious item I longed for in my teens, so I think I need a condition for myself. That is to practice. It is useless if that instrument is not played. If I continue to practice twice a week, I will be good at playing the guitar to some extent. I will do my best 2 years.

I set off for work at 6:55 today. I’m not working hard recently. To make matters worse, I relied too much on my wife in childcare and housework. I'm a little depressed. So, I need time to organize my mind and exercise.

The dog that my wife’s family had, Maroon died. He lived to be fourteen. She loved Maroon very much. While the loss made her lonely, the new life will birth soon.

Today is my wife’s last day at work before taking maternity leave.

As her pregnancy entered a stable period, we took a morning walk in Kyoto yesterday. Even the tourist spots were super quiet because of the Coronavirus. It was a very short amount of time, but we enjoyed the fresh morning air.

I'm getting used to going to work early.

I woke up 2 pm. I had a dream that I met  my divorced wife. I couldn’t become good partner for former wife. 

The heart is beating.

Since today was a day off, I could have time to go practicing aikido. It was the first time in this year that I had been to Saturday morning training. While an hour and a half, I got a lot of advice from the master and older peers. The tips were as follows. When doing a backward turn, it is important to be conscious of protecting the median line with both hands. When doing wrist in turn -Nikyo, I have to 

At the begging of this fiscal year, I decided that I come to the office at Seven forty-five. In these past two weeks, my achievement ratio is 85.7%. Although it is somewhat less than perfect, not bad. I want to make a good habit carefully.

I have finished The EIKEN Test in Practical English Proficiency for the first time in my life. I don't know what the result will be.

The second chapter of my career as a teacher will start. There are three things I want to cherish. First, I come to the office at Seven forty-five. I want to work with time to spare. Second, have a mind “This is my school, they are my students”. I think that it is most simple and powerful way to make a excellent school. Third, I would like to try new teaching style. I want give opportunity of decent education in all kinds of ways.

After returning from work, my wife showed me ultrasonography. She said that she saw the heartbeat of our child at the obstetrics and gynecology hospital. Today is a special day for us.

I heard the notice of my job relocation next academic year. Although I was a little surprised, I'll look at the bright side. To tell the truth, commuting time got longer made me unhappy. My new workplace is relatively small campus. It’s probably a chance. I want to make a excellent school.

I took a promotion examination today. I think the result is terrible. They considered me not a team reader but only a worker. Although I am frustrated, probably their view is true. I couldn't speak about our school mission, the whole image, a specific number, hypothesis, and my achievements.

I bought a compact guitar at the end of January. There is no special reason. I felt like, I want to enjoy music after a long time.

I thought that I want to enter the graduate school of teacher education. I knew it is impossible, considering the probability of having a child in the next few years. But I can do almost what I hope to at university without belonging to an organization. So, I live as an independent scholar and a practitioner from now.
