End of the term and extra credit

こんばんは、

あけましておめでといございます！！！！

ＷｉｎｔｅｒＢｒｅａｋ，なにをしましたか？

I am glad that I could make my blog work again, however the blog still does not work at school. I talked to the IT guy in our school and he does not know why. In order to update the blog at school, I have to sign in at blogger.com and this site does not work anymore. If anyone knows how to make it work, PLEASE let me know. Until then, I'll have to update at home.

As you may know, my son had a surgery on Thursday at Primary Children's Hospital. It was detected he had Cholesteatoma on his right ear that is a cyst that grew between the ear drum and the bones. Before the surgery, he could hear about 50% and now after removing 3 ear bones it seems it got worse, but we don't know exactly the percentage he can currently hear. My son sad is kind of weird now, but he doesn't know how to explain. In 6 months he is going to have another surgery and hopefully the doctor will try to reconstruct some of the bones removed.



My life has been crazy, so as you may have noticed already, I haven't given the extra credit for everyone. I will stay until late at school tomorrow, so please check your grades tomorrow night. Tuesday will be the last day for me to change your grades. As I told you in class before, no more retakes allowed. Friday was the last day. I still can accept some late homework and that's all.

Thanks for all your patient. I am just glad that I love my job. Even though I feel exhausted every morning, I still can wake up and go to work. It's everything because you guys!!!

One more semester and we are done!!!!! Thanks for all your hard work!!! This semester will be lots of fun, specially because of our World Language Week that will be held in February. Do your best so that you can get the cash prizes. We are giving almost $1000 of cash prizes on that week. Japanese has been always in the top 3 among all the other languages, but I really believe we can win this time!!!!

がんばってください！！！（Ｈａｎｇ　ｉｎ　ｔｈｅｒｅ！！）
