Winter

Fall is past and winter has come. I finally got my kotatsu out. The kotatsu is very, very warm, so I look forward to going home every day! But I often get sleepy, so I must be careful not to fall asleep.

By the way, the entrance examination will come soon, I think some candidates took an special entrance exam (admission by recommendation), and pass or fail it. But most students are studying hard for the exam now. When I was a high school student, I also studied hard in December. Though I do not like studies, I’d never been that happy. I worked hard to pass with friends. And I felt as if I got true friends, so it became a precious memory.

I want candidates to enjoy Christmas and the end of year and to pass the entrance exam.

What are memories of examination that you have?

You know, I was a high school graduate preparing for another chance to enter a college, so I also studied hard.

This year, I look forward to the coming winter vacation.

I went to the school to study every day because I couldn’t study in my home. The classroom during winter vacation was very very cold and solitary. I never want to return to the term of my entrance examination.

Every after school, I went to juku study hall. But in stead of studying, I and my friends gatherd to chatting. There are many classmates so I liked to go juku. In winter vacation, we had a Christmas party and paid a visit to a shrine on New Year’s Day, what we call Hatsumoude, around juku.
