Sayonnara, Mr. Kurata

Mr. Kurata is being transferred to Shimo-sho high school. His first day is Monday. I occasionally go to Shimo-sho, so in a sense I will still be working with him. But it will not be the same walking into the office and not seeing his silly face. His English might be lacking, but he has a heart of gold. He has helped me tremendously over the last 14 months. I will truly miss him.

Good luck, Mr Kurata!

Here we all are--me, Mr. Kurata, Mr. Saeki (my supervisor), Mr. Fujinaga (head of office), Yayoi, and Mrs. Nakano (office lady).
