Jottings of Japan

Never really thought of myself as a blogger before... but it seems to be the trend of late, so I thought I'd give it a go. Apologies in advance for the boring content you will endure as I capture my life in size 10 Arial font (for the most part, anyway). So without further ado, Let's blogging!

Meeting

I am in a meeting at work at the moment. We have them every second Monday starting from 3:10pm. The first few meetings I tried to pay attention and tried to follow what was going on by reading through the agenda. After about 10 minutes I got tired/bored/distracted and ended up surfing the net for the remainder. Now, I know to prepare some "activity" for myself to do during the meeting. Today's activity: draw a fish for shougakkou class next week.

The other problem with these meetings is that they run past my finishing time. My day ends at 3:55pm. It's currently 4:05pm and the meeting shows no sign of coming to an end anytime soon. Sometimes Kyoutou-sensei sneaks up to me and tells me I can leave whenever I want. I might try to make eye contact with him soon and see if he gives me the "ok" to crawl out of the staffroom.

But I haven't finished my fish yet. Will work on that some more.

As long as you have a permission to ditch the meeting, I'd say go for it. But a guy who can leave work at 3:55p.m. complaining about 30 minute longer or so makes me kill the guy, alomost. yes, almost. :)

How's the fish coming? I always draw something in any meeting to entertain myself. :-)

Have a fantabulous day!

Shigeki - please don't kill me! I didn't actually leave school until 5:45, and the meeting was still going.

Nicky - I'm eating mochi. It was at Kiryu markets waaaaay back when I went with Indy and Shan in first year. Natsukashii~~~~~~!
