According
to the letters, they had all been very good this year. They studied and did
their homework; worked part time jobs to help pay expenses; brushed teeth every day; learned a dance; began the study of education examination; helped mother cook;
smiled and greeted everyone they met; trained and competed in their sports and
activities; kept in good health; won the rugby inter-college tournament; among other things. I believe what they wrote. They really were good this year.
They
asked Santa for a variety of things: warm gloves, rugby shoes, a pet which is a dog if possible, lots of chocolate, a new rucksack; a
boyfriend, skiwear, two kilos off (because she was going to her hometown to meet old
friends and wanted to be thin), a kitten with the color of black, a car and a
used one is okay, the peaceful world. One asked for Santa's autograph, if he doesn't mind.
When
they came back to class after New Year’s, I asked if Santa brought what they
asked for and they said no! Santa must
not know where Hokkaido is. Rudolph,
please help!
Stitching
I worked off and on
for a few days on a cross stitch dragonfly that may turn into an ornament someday,
but it just wasn’t holding my attention.
I put it away and next, I pulled out a beaded necklace kit from some
long past trip to Hobby Lobby, that I had already started. I bought it because
I wanted to learn how to encase the cabochon bead but once I started working on
it, I wasn’t so interested in the finished project, so it was put away unfinished. It didn’t take all that long to finish
it. I’ll save the directions in case I
want to cover a big bead like this again.
