Today I'll gently and slowly share my morning routine in soothing Japanese
Let's listen to and use lots of Japanese
You'll keep getting better and better
Listen while using the illustrations and subtitles as hints
Now Let's Nihon Go
I usually wake up around half past six
Half means thirty minutes
I wake up at 6:30 My
husband is a very early
riser—he gets up at 5:
30 I wake up at 5:30
I take the dog for a walk and do the laundry
My second son sleeps very well
I wake him up around 7 o'clock
What time do you wake up Is it
early or late After waking up I
immediately wash my face In the
morning my hair and bedhead are a mess
I comb my hair until it's a mess
Then I head to the kitchen
I prepare breakfast for everyone
Lately we've been eating bread or granola
I ask the child which they prefer
On Granola Day I put granola and milk into a bowl
Then drizzle a little honey on top
On Bread Day toast the bread and drizzle honey on it
My three-year-old youngest son wants to do everything himself
so I make it with him— it takes ages
What do you all usually have for breakfast
Japanese people are often pictured eating rice miso soup and fish
But in reality they often have much simpler breakfasts
During weekdays from Monday to Friday
mornings are incredibly busy I'm rushing around
I call out to the kid "Don't forget your water bottle " and "You
left your card behind " while eating my own meal in the meantime
Rice means "rice" or "uncooked rice " but it's also
commonly used to mean "a meal" or "a serving of food "
Breakfast in the morning lunch at noon—just like that
Well it's already almost 8 o'clock
Before 8 o'clock is a little earlier than 8 o'clock
The children leave home around 7:50
The children walk to school by themselves
Yes students always get surprised when I mention this Wow that's amazing—actually it's quite
shocking Japan is such a safe country
Carrying a large backpack called a dandosel you walk about
30 minutes to reach the distant
child Your legs grow stronger
Yes the whole family has gone out
The front door the shoes by the front door are gone
So I sweep the front entrance with a broom
I sweep the floor with a broom and clean it
It's nice when it looks clean
From there my work begins—my job as a Japanese teacher
Let's get started
This is what it's been like since I woke up this morning
How was your day It's been incredibly busy hasn't it
Time just flies by in the blink of an eye
Is your morning more relaxed
Are you busier now
