Well, first of all, I didn’t know that today was mother’s day. But, you can’t go, “You forgot (blahblah)” because:
1. Mother’s day isn’t really a set date that happens every year — it’s either you know it or you don’t.
2. I don’t really keep the dates in mind. I usually just check the date so I know when to return the books that I borrowed.
That being said, whenever I skype with my family, the first thing that they scrutinize is my face.
Now, I’m not being modest when I tell you that I don’t think I’m attractive. But when people criticize you when you’re tired and you don’t really have time for that, it might sort of tick you off.
Meh.
Highlights of today would be buying those novels in Japanese, and then getting 3,000 yen worth of gift certificates from my student (in addition to the 2,000 yen that he paid me for today’s lesson) because he felt guilty that he was late for our class (like… nearly an hour late).
AWESOME.
