Welcome home, Touko. |
I’m so tired today. |
I don’t like the atmosphere of Japanese research centers. |
Why do Japanese research centers feel like this? |
The people entirely lack a critical mentality, and they are lazy. |
I wish they would stop looking at me judgmentally just because I studied abroad. |
Research centers in America weren’t like this. |
I suppose they think I was able to study abroad because my dad has connections. |
Everybody is so icy here. |
When I was in grade school, we were so welcoming of kids transferring from other schools. |
Maybe we change when we grow up. |
This makes me depressed, but it’s what I have to face now. |
I can’t live like I did in America forever. |
If I do what I’m supposed to do, people will give me credit eventually. |
Okay, Touko? |
Soon I’ll have my examination to become a counselor. |
Until I finish that exam, I’ll have to bear with it the best I can. |
