The first month, and even more, is mostly giving your self introduction to your classes at least three times a day. The key is to try and keep up a good energy level each time you do it. If you appear to be excited then the kids will catch a good vibe off of you and know that you want to be there

We went to the Kagoshima City Aquarium and I was fascinated by this drink machine that spits out a cup, throws in the ice, then fills it for you.
The goofball music from Final Fantasy 6 pretty much sums this one up. No, I wasn't drunk :P
