		<description>Sara- I have a question...do you spell your name sara or sarah...I think I have seen it both ways from you so am confused! I know your internet name is sara but how is the real spelling done??!

It is good and bad for me to be going back to Australia. I wanted to go just six months but Shun suggested a year....I need to spend some time with my family and do something other than teaching for awhile as well. Plus I can show Shumpei more of my home!!!

Definitely would be up for a ski/snow trip once I am back in Japan (and you are married!!!) up in Niigata! Next winter we won`t be here though and the year late you might be pregnant?!?! But we could go look at the snow still!! Do you ski or board? I don`t really do either!

We will definitely be coming back. I want to move back to Japan.

Katie- Thanks Katie...you know a lot of what is going on with stuff back home and I appreciate your support and nice words. Some other stuff has changed since I spoke to you last but will update you by mail later....We will have to meet up again once I am back In australia. Am looking forward to it!!!

Nay- Thanks. In regards to the English stuff I am going to facebook you. There is heaps you could do with them if they have no english...you might need a couple of props though!

		<description>Hey Laura,

I think what Katie said is very very good advice, I wouldn't be able to say anything better, so I won't bother!!

Btw, I really need some advice... You know how I'm working at a day care centre, right? Well the boss keeps asking me to do some english with the kids, but I have no idea what I should do. They are between the ages of 2.5 and 4, and have no english skills what so ever. Also, I have never taught english before (yet!!), so I don't have any idea how to teach them. Any advice would be great!!

		<description>Hey Laura, Sorry to hear things arn't going so well back home...I know it must be so hard for you. Hang in there and really concentrate on looking after yourself, thinking positive and staying strong. Sometimes things happen that we can't control, but what you can do is look for the things you can control/change and do the best that you can to make yourself happy :) Ha ha! I hope I don't sound too much like a therapist!

		<description>Hey!
Ahh.. kind of makes me sad to think that you'll be going back home for a year! Not that we've really ever met or anything :( But you will be coming back again eventually right??

Skiing/snowboard sounds fun!! When I eventually move up to Niigata, Ryoheis family lives right near a famous ski place, it would be fun to do a ski trip sometime!
