A day of amazing gifts
The little older gentleman who sits next to me at Koga 3rd (my favorite school) gave me the sweetest gift today. We always greet each other in the morning and exchange a couple of pleasantries, and generally just smile at each other throughout the day, but really that's about it. But then today he gave me a whole bag of beautiful goodies for Girls' Day (Hina Matsuri): tea, sakura mochi, and sweets. All were beautifully wrapped.
Then, on my way out of school to head home for lunch I ran into my favorite student, who graduated yesterday. Two weeks ago he gave me a CD, and I made him a mixCD in return. Then today he totally floored me by giving me an exquisite bouquet of flowers. It is seriously the nicest arrangement I have ever been given. If he wasn't my student I would have kissed him. Instead we took pictures, chatted about his future (he's moving to Tokyo) and exchanged email addresses and awkward hugs.
Wait a sec, since he just graduated he's technically no longer my student...
