Teaching, 100 yen shop, food

Today, I went to the bank to set up an account and was given washing detergent for my troubles. o_O I'm apparently moving a lot faster than many at setting everything up, but oh well. I like having things settled and as stress free as possible. I had a preschool class this morning with another teacher. It was a bit crazy since there were 20+ of them and they thought I was the coolest thing in the world to climb on. Thank god I have very strong arm muscles *L* The kids are very friendly at that age and adorable to boot.

I went to the bank then four other classes this evening. One kid, and three adult classes. In adult classes you often just talk so that's quite interesting. I also visited the 100 yen shop for the first time. It's cheap and has a fantastic range of things. I shall have to keep it in mind for many things. I wandered into the supermarket for some bananas and ended up with a taiyaki and packaged soba noodle bowl for lunch. One of my students was in Okinawa this weekend so he brought us back souvenirs of these leaf shaped pastries, similar to taiyaki filled with different things - custard, red bean paste, chocolate, green tea etc. They were all very good:) I should encourage my students to travel more;)
