It's raining today. It rained yesterday and the day before and the day before. But this is Japan, not Ireland, so I know that the rain will go away soon. And when the weather forecast says it will be sunny tomorrow, I know it will be sunny tomorrow. Even with the gray sky today I'm surrounded by colour. Just outside the staff-room windows are a bunch of bright Chrysanthemun's. Every year at this time I get to witness these beautiful flowers come in to bloom. Each year the third year students plant seedlings in May. They have two plants each in case one dies. In october, at the height of the rice harvest, my town holds a small culture festival. And at this festival the student's Chrysanthenum's are proudly displayed.
