It was my birthday on 26 Nov.
All the staff at GenkiJACS gave me a birthday cake!!!<\/p>\n

$\"20121128-birthdaycake.jpg\"$ <\/p>\n

As you can see, I forgot to take the picture of cake before cutting.
Not only I couldn’t wait to eat but also there were FAR too many candles on….<\/p>\n

Anyway, Thank you very much Sensei-tachi and those who sent me a message through facebook!!
All of them write a message in Japanese, and\u3000I am happy to know they have been studying Japanese after they returned to their own countries!!! <\/p>\n
