When I came into work yesterday I was informed that one of our students died on Saturday.
She was one of the students with special needs and so I never worked with her since she had trouble adjusting to new people interacting with her.
Although I didn't spend time with her it will be sad not seeing her come into the office every morning with her cute shy smile as all of us said "Ohiyo Chika-chan"
It is shocking to know that you saw this child one day and to later find out that she died the very next day.
I don't know anything about what happened since the only people who really know how to speak English left for the annual 2nd year camping trip. All I know is how upsetting this is for everyone here, especially her homeroom teacher.
One of the funeral services will be today and the other tomorrow, the Otsuya(wake) and the Ososhiki(funeral). I will be going to the Otsuya but I don't think i'm going to the Ososhiki since it'll be tomorrow at 1pm when i have classes.
Rest in Peach Chika-chan
Me living in Japan

- Kanna-machi, Gunma-ken, Japan
- So I have moved into my house in Manba, Kanna-machi. It's a nice little house on top of a hill with lovely neighbors...a temple and a cemetery. The town is small, less than 3000, that's spread out thru the mountains with only one stop light thru out the whole town. Although it is small i enjoy living here surrounded by nature. I can't wait to play in the river ^_^
