last party

I've done the last party of this year tonight.

It was for my private teacher!
Her other students and I celebrated her effort and express to her out gratitude with her teaching at this party.

She had been studying Japanese very hard for 4 years, and finished to take a Japanese exam 3 weeks ago. Her student visa expired this month, she will go back to Canada next year.
It is sad, but the party was great!We talked a lot, and ate nice food and drink.
It was pretty good day for me.

After the party, I got a mail from her.

She said, I was quiet and distracted during the party. She worried me.
My teacher Olympia is so sweat!
I responced her soon, I'm OK.
Yes, I could have been seemed like quiet. In fact I am not so familiar with other students.
And they are so passionate that I could not speak at all.
They kept speaking, speaking, speaking!
I didn't know when was a good timing to interrupted their conversation.

I am also shy, I haven't spoken to them much before, so I didn't speak a lot, then I was just listening to them and being quiet.

I enjoed the party, but sometime my attitude like tonight could become a trouble.
Because it seems like that I wasn't happy... I should be more careful at a party.

I'm back.

I'm back from my hometown.

Unfortunately, going back there was for a fuenel with my granma.

My granma had five children.
My father is the elderest, so he managed the celemony and very busy.

I talked to many relatives, uncles and an aunt.
While I talked to them, I heard an unexpected story.
My father wasn't the elderest!
My granma had a private child before her marrige.

It was over 70 years ago, so it was soooooooooooooooo hard to raise the child by her hand.
My granma gave up to do it...

I didn't know that.

The aunt came to see my granma sometime, but I haven't seen her before.
However she has same image with my granma, so I can reconize easily, my mother said to me.

I hope to see her next time.

granma

I got a call from my mom right now.

My granma has been in a houspital (kind of nursing home), and she is unconcious now.
A doctor said to her that my mother won't live so long.

My mother said that I have to be ready for going to my hometown, Morioka, when she died.

I felt sad when I heard of that.
