Busy Busy

I have been busy this last week, I had training from a company that would find me a teaching job. Everyday this week I had to go to the office from 10am to 5pm and me and a few other new teachers would work on things to make us better teachers. We would work with people that have been teaching in Japan for awhile. I never thought I would be the type to wear a suit and tie to work but its not so bad. It was pretty interesting and useful, one of there other new teachers used to be a Disney Princess at Disney Land CA, she was Bell from Beauty and the Beast. She had some interesting stories about how strict and protective they are at Disney.

A quick story, after working one day my wife and I went to eat at the all you can eat place again. I realized afterwards that its all you "can" eat not all your "able" to eat.

I went for the all I'm able to eat method and felt horrible afterwards, I mean it was bad my body was refusing to follow commands. I would try to put something in my mouth and my hand would move away and I was starting to shake. After we left I wanted to throw up and just then my wife said "oh there goes are bus!" like we were going to miss it. It took a few seconds to realize it was just a joke, she got a good kick out of it. I told her not to jinx it and that it wasn't funny. As we got to the corner of the road about 50ft or so from the bus stop she said it again only this time it was true! See I told her not to jinx it. So we had to run this was the hardest thing I have ever had to do in my life. Just as we got to the stop the bus doors closed, are you kidding me after the running and the dying. Then my wife banged on the door, I thought good they will open up, but the bus started to pull away. NOOOOOO! Then after a few feet it stopped and opened the door for us. The rest of the way home was not much more fun but I thought I would share that little part.

However now that the training is done I don't think I'm going to work with that company one reason is that I am only a substitute for now, that would change in April but ether way I would have a different schedule and school every day of the week. Second, because another person I had talked to awhile back about a teaching job wants me to work for their school (its more of a private lesson but class set up kind of thing), its more stable same place everyday and at the same time. That job would be from 5pm to 9pm four days a week.

And of course during that time I picked up a few games, some for me and some to sell. I'll start with the ones for me. Super E.D.F ($3), F-Zero ($5), Blazeon ($3) and Popn Twin-Bee ($9.50) all for the Super Famicom. I also got the King of Fighters 95 ($2.50) for the GameBoy, Sega World Wide Soccer 98 ($1) and Street Fighter Zero 2 ($2.50) for the Sega Saturn.

To sell I got Zelda: Majoras Mask ($6) for the N64 complete in the box, Chaos Seed ($15) and X-Men ($3) for the Super Famicom, Kid Dracula ($3) for the Famicom and Umihara Kawasa ($26) for the PS1.
