Wednesday is usually a short day for me, since I only have one private lesson and no electives. Today I went for my private lesson and found the classroom, but I had arrived a few minutes early so my teacher wasn’t in the room yet. This particular teacher is the university student who’s been in Ireland. I looked into the room and her bag, coat and books were there on the table. On top of the books, there were two small brown paper bags. I thought to myself, “wouldn’t it be cute if they were Valentine’s Day presents.”
She arrived and greeted me and we sat down and she said “today I have a present for you!” I did my best to act surprised and confused and said “present?” and then she handed me one of the bags and wished me a happy Valentine’s Day. Inside was a pink mochi with a strawberry inside it and two small chocolates. Mochi don’t taste as bad as the wikipedia article sounds. Picture after the jump.


Is that milk chocolate a perfect cuboid?
It is. The inside has some creamy white chocolate. The wrapper says ” with fresh cream inside” on top. You’d like it despite your dislike of fresh cream.
Nom nom. It can’t possibly actually be fresh cream, so I most likely would.
おめでとうございま〜す!!
