Day 44

Last day of Term B.  Remember Alvaro who I mentioned earlier (at least I think I did)?  That rude, arrogant, and annoying fellow from the first day?  Well, he never showed up after that, which neither surprises nor bothers me at all.  I think he was just surprised and offended at the other people in the class who are just as good or better than him, and he couldn't take it.

Last day with Naruse sensei.  I was completely wrong about her, as she ended up being pretty nice in the end (except for the fact that she told the other professors that we are all "useless").  I feel that I learned a good deal from her, and will cherish having her as a professor, knowing that it can only get easier from here.

Last day with many of the students in the class.  SILAC SH was the finish line for 3 students in our class, 2 of whom gave impressive speeches (one of whom was unable to give a speech because she had private lessons, even after graduation!).  That doesn't mean that my next class will be small though, because for the next two terms, well my last two terms, classes will change completely, in terms of students, senseis, and subject matter studied each time.

Last day before climbing Mt. Fuji.  I had to spend a fair amount of money on supplies, but at least I'll be able to use all of these at a later date.  At least I didn't have to buy any more clothing, as I brought it all.  The only nonrenewable items I had to purchase were some candy, pain reliever (w/o aspirin, I don't understand why but it's probably some really important reason), and just toiletries.

Last day I'll be beginning all of my paragraphs with the words "last day".
