I sat with the Miya mom's, who graciously called me over and gave me a little stool to sit on
I guess I'm good luck, as MJH defeated HJH 3-1. Which is quite an accomplishment, considering HJH is about 4 times the size of Miya - they have a much larger pool of players to draw from.
I have my crazy "humidity" hair. *sigh* Also, if you look closely, you can spy an imposter sneaking into the picture, heh heh
There was a break between Miya's two games when the teams from Hie and Kofuku played, during which the Miya parents shared mochi and tea with me (so generous!) and I congratulated the team on their win. I also managed to get an onigiri from my awesome awesome JTE who is a coach on the team. He SO ROCKS.
I also taught one of my student's from MES (their to watch her brother) how to play tic-tac-toe while we waited for game 2.
which she proceeded to teach to her friend
and we all played
Game 2 for MJH was with KJH (Kofuku, not to be confused with my other school Kuguno).
which didn't go as well as the game with Hie. We lost >.<
As the game ended, I was dragged off to the community center by my elementary school students to see their summer projects and didn't get to say goodbye to the team, so I made a point to go back. My JTE had already left, but most of the team was still there, along with a couple of the coaches and dads. And they are a riot and we had fun with my terrible Japanese and their broken English
You're from America or Canada? (my predecessor was from Canada) How old are you? (you look 21!) Are you married? heh heh heh
This dad was really funny and kept calling me the "beautiful teacher", and has therefore immediately become one of my favorite people in Miya ^_^
And this coach's English was actually quite good, despite his claims that he can't speak much.
And I got invited to the next game
Score!
