Not recontracting

So, I handed in my letter to my supervisor saying that I would not be coming back. I asked her how she was doing....... she gave me the dog, head-tilt. I knew this was exactly part of the reason why I am not staying. I remember the first thing I learned in Spanish was Como estas? Bien, gracias. Y tu. Come on, if are a supervisor for and English speaking person, wouldn't you think she should be able to say "I am good/fine, thank you and you?" I gave up and tried to work through sign language. I am better at that.

So what I teach the elementary students everytime is "How are you?" Hopefully it will become routine and they will remember that. Probably not because they are Japanese. It is just frustrating when they can't do the simpliest of conversation. In the one month I was here, that is what I learned. They have had English since they were 12 plus the infrequent visits to the elementary. Enough venting, but then I get to my sunflower class today and everything is good. Good morning Naohito. Good morning Mrs. Takata. Good morning Naohito. Good morning ms. BRRRRRITT. That just makes you smile. Also I am having one of my classes ask me questions on worksheets. This is a first. They have confidence to talk to me and use English. Since I play dumb in class and act like I can't speak Japanese. Which I can't, but I can understand a little.
I love it when some teachers make all of the time in the world for you and others when you ask how their weekends were, they look at the clock like I am taking up their precious 10 seconds.
Oh and now I can say I HATE POSTOFFICES. I have not made enemies anymore, but I just don't understand anything they give me and neither do my teachers of ENGLISH.
Just to give you a visual. If the postoffice were to have a spark, all of their documents would be gone. Same with the bank. I have never seen so many little books tied together with yarn holding the most insignificant stamp or piece of information possible. In my bank at home, everything is on computers and makes for an asthetically pleasing sight.
Thanks to my office girl who is my personal secretary and checking all possible companies for flights. Once again my little workers. The only thing you need to do is stay on their good side.
