Strange Stories, Japanese Ghosts and Monsters, and Unique Businesses
6日以降、復習日記を記載していませんでした。もう、レッスンに飽きたと思われがちですが、7日に休んだきりで、8日から11日まで連続してレッスンを受けています。たくさん進みました。
11日は、いつもお願いしている先生がドタキャン（10分前連絡）で、他の先生にお願いしました。初めての先生でしたが、淡々としていたかな・・・
なかなか双方向の先生って少なくないですかね？質問されて、答えているのに、ふーん、ハイ次、という感じ。
あと、最近少しお願いしている先生、さて、くらいの感じで、何か話す前にof courseを頻繁に言うんだけど、なんか少し変なような。。。最初ちょっと、of course っていうから、少し構えていたんだけど、口癖みたいな感じ。
ところで、日本の妖怪の話とかをするんだけど、よく知っている妖怪とかって、結局、アニメとかが関係しているよね。怪物くん、鬼太郎、妖怪ウォッチ、あとはゲームのモンスターなど。そういえば、ルフィって怪物くんの要素があるね。怪物くんって手足が伸びて顔がかえられるのと、念力が使えるんだっけ？
