Commonplace miracles

It's when I tell one of my students that cutting our hair short will invariably call attention to his face and make him look fat, but he has a cute face so he shouldn't hide it. Or when I teach him how to pick up girls in English. There seems to be something structutally predicted about a gay man teaching  a straight man how to do so...

Or when one of my students came in for her first class just to realize it was cancelled and that her next class with Claire was in an hour and so I volunteer to teach her the class myself right away. Teaching Nahoko is always fun, fun to the point where I do not consider it work.

Or when I go to Starbucks to study English but instead help this girl with her application to an international company in Tokyo. We exchanged e-mails and hopefully we'll hang out and I would have made a new friend.

Or when I walk down the street and find 1,000 yen on the street. IT'S MINE NOW! YEE-TAH! A small token payment to those who deserve it, maybe?
