21:44 Tuesday 14 April 2015 JST

Great! It seems I hae three consistent lessons on Tuesdays now. Thanks to Mutsumi and Mutsumi, and K and Y. There's a bit of tag team between Mutsumi and Y but Mutsumi and K are planning to study each week.

Glad and happy yay!

saved an umbrellas life

16:53 Tuesday 14 April 2015 JST

For some reason I didn't bring my umbrella today. It's honestly not raining that much, but I'm in a suit, blah blah blah.

Umbrellas are apparently the most often forgotten items and least claimed items in lost and founds. It's common to see bundles of umbrellas being thrown away as the owners never came back to claim them from whereever they've accumulated.

So,

I went to the convenience store where I go each week (and used to go 6 days a week). 「あの、エコーのため、古い傘をいただけますか？」 "considering the environment, can you give me an old umbrella (instead of me buying one?)"

He was like, "sure!" and went to the back to get one. Nice.

worked a bit

Finally got approval for a thing I did like 3 weeks ago, so I moved it to the live server. Then they were like, yeah but what about this: it's not working. and showed me the URL

www.example.com/report/xml

um, yeah, that's because I told you it was

demo.example.com/news/xml

It's on the demo server because you haven't approved it and it's the news URL because that what you originally requested to be updated.
