Goodbye, My little Schools...

As the new school year came, I had to leave three of my schools behind. I had taught there for two years and became quite attached. You see, I moved very far away and the stress of commuting for almost one and a half hours became too much. After Nolan's born, I'm gonna go back for visits!

Hirakata

Here's (L2R) Yoohwa - who shares the same birthday as me, Mihoko - who loved learning and using naughty words, and Nana - who was the most energetic staff member for kids! They're great!

Left (L2R): Tomoya (The Monkey), Taisuke (The Ladies' Man), Miku (The Brains), Riko (The Head-munching Queen) and Renya (The Helper) and their moms. They were my favorite 3-and-under class ever!
Right (L2R): Mayuka (The Energetic Angel), and Tai (The Brat). They came in halfway into the year from another class. They were a bit unruly, but cute when behaved.

Neyagawa

Here's Tammy - One of the most down-to-earth Japanese people I've met, and Smile - a great guy who lived up to such a demanding nickname!

Girls (L2R): Arisa, Aina, Mayuka, Alice, and Miho.
Boys (L2R): Haruto, Akira and Taiga.
They drove my ass frickin' BONKERS. EVERY WEEK! However, at the end, I found that I missed this class the most out of them all. I'm still very confused by this.

Yao

Left (L2R): Cathy - The very nice newby, Angie - The Original and now a teacher, and Eli - Another B-Type!
Right (L2R): Yuki (The Doll), and Yuhi (The Hidden) and their moms!

Left (L2R): Daichi (The Boy Wonder), Supika (The Supikachu), Sanami (The Salami), Maria (The Inner-Ear Destroyer), and Taichi (The Thinker)
Right (L2R): Ryoka (Back), Haruto and Miyabi (Middle), Akika, Mayuka, Honoka and Yurina (Front)
