1. Today has been the second Saturday, which happens to be off-day for Rakunan High School.

2. I rushed into the main school building to find that there would be no classes.

3. More than 90 percent of the whole freshmen and seniors were at school in order to take preparatory exams.

4. I had a long chat with homeroom teachers about what should be done to our senior students.

5. Just when I was going to leave the office, Mr. Yamanoi and his faithful secretary, Mr. Miyaji, came appear. They came to express their deep thanks to our fellow teachers and workers for their cooperation of his political campaign.

6. I had a long chat with Mr. Yamanoi. I was able to save time by talking face to face with him instead of sending him E-mail.

7. 20 minutes later I was one of the passengers in Nozomi Superexpress which was heading for Hakata. I was heading toward Kumamoto with a few stopovers on the way.

「頑張れ、 Nipponese(日本人)!」

 外人:(ゆっくりの日本語で)ハロー、アノウ、キョウトエキユキノバスワ.......ドコカラノレバ、イイノデスカ?

日本人:アノー, アノー, I can't speak JAPANESE! ゴメンナサアーーイ!(He runs away.)


(追記)TA家の guest だった Cuban(キューバ人)エスペランティスト(Esperantist) である S-ro Orland(オーランド氏)(7/7から8/25滞在)から聞いた話。純粋キューバ人で、京大大学院の研究生とはいえ、身長170cm、体重105kgのオラさんは、プロレスラーにでも見えたのだろう。でも、でも、やっぱり頑張れ、Nipponjin!

(追追記)その日本人は、20歳くらいの男性だったとのこと。女性だったら、事態は変わっていただろうか? It's fifty-fifty chance. Maybe...
